"Just transferred- my Mom has business here and I'm checking out the school before my sister moves over here from the States," he explained.
"That's nice. I have an uncle who moved to America. I want to visit him sometime, but my mum says it's too dangerous to go alone, and she's not getting on a plane anytime soon. Anyway, what's the school like there? And have you already been sorted?" James asked. He had so many questions. His uncle had never been very good at describing things.

You look about my age but not really."
She was about to draw her attention back into the Quibbler again when she heard James comment. Glancing over at him Roxxy nodded "Yep, it's the Quibbler.. Funny pages??" The last was said with some confusion. What funny pages were James referring to? Puzzled she turned back to Chris saying "Yes, let's find a compartment. The train must start moving soon."
"Nice to meet you, Roxxy. Oh, I'm a Second Year. Are you a first year?" James asked, wanting to see if he had guessed correctly.
"Oh, right. See, my uncle lives in America, and he likes to send me the American newspapers sometimes. The best part is the funny pages. That's the section with all the comic strips on it. My favorite one is called "The Wizard of Id." Of course, it's not about real wizards, but it's funny none-the-less." James explained.
