Should anyone ask him about it though and he was going to blame it all on his family trip to Italy, yup, he had enjoyed the trip so much that everything else had paled in comparison to it now. Or so he said. Cause obviously there were all those days spent in DA with a certain someone, several letters written and sent back and forth and many many mirror calls.

All summers must come to an end and with that, this was how he came to be where he currently was. In the first empty compartment he had come across somewhere between the front and middle of the train. Vasco was sat on the bench sideways, one of his legs stressed out across the seat and the other flat on the floor while he sat slumped against the wall/window. He was wearing one of his hoodies this morning, the hood over his head and his eyes closed at the moment as he listened to whatever song was coming through the noise cancelling headphones he had on over his ears. Thank you to the magic he had taught himself years early to make this work.

Laying comfortably on his chest was the newly acquired kitten he had received over the summer from Vera. Beelz was still wearing the chain and bell around her tiny fluffy neck along with an adorable little pink and white shirt/dress combo thing that completely went against everything Vera had ever said about the precious baby.


Summer had been a good one, plenty of time spent exploring Diagon Alley, piles of books she'd been able to get through, and of course getting to help out around the reserve and fit some more practice in on her horse. She'd spent most of the time doing the things she loved, or staying social with the few contacts she had made the previous term. But... Alouette was also pretty anxious to be able to return to Hogwarts, even if there was some disappointment underneath too that it was already her last time to do so.

Boarding the train with the rest of her peers (and siblings), she shot the other Wild's a few waves and a wink towards Pippa before picking her way through the crowd. She could have asked if they wanted to find somewhere together, but she also was certain they had their own people they'd like to find. Or at the very least, probably not want to be saddled with biggest sister. Or those could have just been excuses she was telling herself, as there was a particular bird she was looking forward to perching with for the trip.

It didn't take long to find him, as she peered into a few of the compartments towards the front. And of course he was lounged and looked like he'd already drifted off, with Beelz serenely curled up on his chest with that all too familiar bell around her neck. Al couldn't stop the slight smirk that settled on her face as she quietly let herself in, pausing to give the gentlest head scratch to the kitten before she settled into the seat opposite him. She didn't say a word, just pulled a book from her bag and stretched out her own legs to stretch across the cabin and rest on top of the outstretched one.
