And while she did have Vasco, which was a comfort ~~as much as she'd never tell him that~~ there was another big part of her that was missing.

PAPA WOULDN'T LET HER BRING HER SNAKE.

She had begged and PLEADED to be able to send a letter to Headmaster Kazmi asking to bring her pet with her, but Papa had said she was too young for the responsibility and that maybe she could ASK when she was older. Not even that she could do it, just that she could ask!!! She certainly hoped there were some type of reptiles she could cuddle with at Hogwarts, preferably a basilisk though she was pretty sure there was only like it's skeleton or something now.

Such a shame.

Heaving a loud SIGH, she looked out the window and thunked her forehead against the glass. She'd just sit here and pout.

Until she inevitably forgot why she was.

Things were absolutely more REAL now. Now that she was actually on the train to Hogwarts, and in some ways Sable Ileana was as excited as she had been when she got her wand. It was absolutely exciting, and even more exciting knowing she was getting to go with her bestie and Vasco... and she'd be able to see if her cousin had been right when he'd told her stories. Told her what to expect, and even if there wasn't a likelihood of getting to meet any pirates (she might've poked around history books a bit more than anyone would've expected of her but it was important)

Except Mo had to stay home. Mum had promised to take care of the cruppy and play with him and everything Sable Ileana would have done, but it wasn't the same as getting to have him at Hogwarts with her. It felt almost like betraying Juli by not keeping the cruppy with her. Her attempt at smuggling him into Hogwarts in her trunk had been foiled, though. She didn't see why it wasn't allowed. Mo was just as good as a cat or a rat or a toad. Just cooler.

She may have been on a mission to find the bestie, too. Vera would understand. Probably. Definitely.

The thunk had sounded weirdly familiar as she'd approached the next compartment in her search, not to mention the sigh, and she had stepped inside practically before she had verified the occupant. It hadn't occurred to her that anyone wouldn't consider her welcome anyway, and besides, it WAS bestie.

"Wanna see if we can find any snacks?," she asked, even as she had plopped down onto the seat across from her. Anything?
