All aboard the carriages leading up to the castle. But wait... if these carriages full of boys are leading to Hogwarts, where are the girls going? |

"This one doesn't do tricks either," Iggy frowned. "Lucern is a rather clever cat. Poor soul. He just needs to be loved. Which, I am sure, is why Niall has him, rather than Zero."

Originally Posted by Con Man Curt quickly turned his head as he head someone call his name. He watched as Dusty ran over from his carriage and situated himself in the one Curt was in, "Hey Dusty," Curt said with a grin, he still wasn't sure if Dusty was trying to give him a hard time on the train or not, but Curt decided it was probably to play it off as he didn't, maybe his imagination was getting the better of him. Curt noticed Dusty's ferret sniffing his legs, and Curt reached down and gave the little guy a comterable pat on the head. Upon Dusty asking what was going on, Curt simply shrugged... he was just as confused as everyone else. "I'm not sure mate, this has never happened before. Can't be anything bad though, I still see some of the old professors back." he said with a nod.
Curt then looked to one of the first years who was introducing himself, the one with the shorter hair. Curt nodded, "Nice to meet you Flynn." he said, trying his best to settle into the situation, he wasn't really worried at all anymore; he was just anxious to find out what was going to happen. Curt frowned slightly as Flynn asked him if he knew why this was happening, he merely shook his head. "I wish I did... but I don't have any idea. They will explain everything when we arrive at our place though, no worries." he said confidently. They better, Curt thought, it was pretty tough being clueless like this.
Curt then turned to the other young one, Garret it turned out his name was. Curt noticed his shyness at first, and it made Curt smile as he remember his very own first year, how nervous he was around some of the older students, the Hufflepuff prefect Leo, and some of the other girls. He soon got over it though, and it was evident Garret was too as he went on about how he noticed that wasn't a normal happening. "That is true." Curt said with nod, he looked around again. The panic was still thick in the air, and some people were arguing, and it sounded like idea's of a revolt were in the air. Curt sighed, he just wished everyone would settle down, it really wasn't that big of a deal. Curt was the one being separated from his serious girlfriend, if he was fine with it, everyone else should be. Curt laughed as Garret said he didn't need the girls, and started to hurry people along. This kid was funny, and Curt was hungry as well... he stood up in the carriage and turned around, facing everyone who was lollygagging around, "Let's go gentlemen, Professors' have asked us time and time again to hurry it up so lets get a move on!" he said, hoping to maybe speed things up. Sitting back down, he looked to Garret and smiled, "Yeah I think we'll do just fine without the nagging girls." he said with a wink, "But I'll tell you this much, give yourself a year or two and you might change you mind on the matter." he said with a grin, thinking of when he started devoloping a huge crush on Savannah Mae.
It was just then when Curt's fellow housemate Ray made his way into the carriage, Curt didn't see much of him last year but he was just a year under himself, Curt was pretty sure. "G'day Ray." Curt said with a nod, before frowning slightly and shaking his head. "All I know is that the Professors are explaining everything once we get there, I just wish everyone would hurry and load up so we had head out." as he looked out to the crowd on the platform that was finally beginning the thin out.
Curt turned back over to Dusty, taking a look at his pet ferret. Curt really like ferrets, his oldest brother used to have one. "What's this guys name?" Curt asked, petting the critter softly on the back. "Hm" Ray replied as he looked at Curt. "I thought that we had to wait till we arrive to school but Im starting to form my own ideas" Ray revealed. "I guess something is going on a kind of boys against girls type of competition or else it is a kind of ministry intervention that asked to seperate girls from boys... Maybe it has something to do with our divinition teacher dieing last semester" Ray continued. "Well all we need to do now is wait."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Sirius Potter Fourth Year | Gryfflepuff Remus searched the crowd for Fred. He had not join Remy in the train car and Remy had not yet seen his best friend. He knew Fred had traveled to visit family in Bulgaria over the summer holiday but surely he was returning to Hogwarts this year. Remy pushed through a group of young boys who were confused about the sudden separation of sexes. Remus too was a bit confused but his desire to find Fred was a more urgent driving force.

Tapping his wand against the palm of his hand, James sat on edge.
"Just try to think positive." he murmered to himself. "You're a 7th year. You know how to defend yourself. But you won't have to defend yourself. Nothing's going to happen. You'll be at school before you know it." he thought.
"Just keep telling youself that." he mumbled.

It seemed his cat kicking comment hadn't recieved a very good reactions and Clifford looked between his friends. "Okay - I only kick them when they scratch me first!" He said defending himself. "But I still don't like cats ... they just use you." They got their food, and they vanished. Hmm. Sounded like a good life actually. Miles sighed. So it wasn't normal, great. Why did the first time he started school right at the beginning of the year have to be odd. Although he hoped CLifford was right, everything would be alright by the time the feast came round.
Miles chuckled. Cats were kinda mean, when they would just mope around your house .. or no where near you house and not come back for days. "I get your point." He nodded. "The using part, they take your food then go." Miles smiled. He was glad he didn't own a cat. |

"The using part, they take your food then go." Miles smiled. He was glad he didn't own a cat. Meh. He couldn't deny that Dan was right. Cats were smart. They could hunt for their own food.. and jump really high.. and use their claws to scratch things. That didn't mean he liked them though. In fact, he disliked them more now - they were smarter than HE was. No fair. At least Miles agreed with him.
Aha! Quidditch! "Of course I'm trying out." Clifford told Dan enthusiastically. No matter what was going on at Hogwarts, he'd try out. If he could play well, that was. It was going to hard concentrating when his mind was filled with other things.. like: ImissEvieImissEvieImissEvieImissEvieImissEvieImiss Evie. "What about you? Are you gonna try out?" He knew Dan had been on the team previous terms. "What about you Miles? Do you play?"

Will nodded as Ignatius offered him a seat. "Hullo, I'm Will... Will Jones. I don't believe we've met?" Quote:

Will rolled his eyes. "I'm for house unity and house pride- we can have both. We Slytherins are strong enough as a House that we don't need to knock others down in order to rise to the top. And as for the girls, well-- as much as I like them--" one in particular he thought, "I have six, count 'em six baby sisters. So a girl free zone will be a nice respite for a few hours, if you ask me... Heck, for all we know it might only last until we reach the castle, or might just be a new way of taking us up there. I'm sure they can't keep everything, even classes and quidditch, separate." Inwardly, he wondered after what that professor had said, but he wasn't going to say anything to incite further drama. "Either way, there's gotta be a better way to protest a situation than standing on the platform wailing and gnashing your teeth. Besides, I'm starvin'... the carriage driver took my snack and I want to get to the feast. We can sort all this out on full stomachs, write our parents or contact the ministry if we must. But first thing's first, and first thing should be food where I'm concerned."

Bob called lazily, looking at his watch. Allen kept following the only path available, the one where he was being pushed and compressed. His thoughts were starting to mix incredible well with his muttering and a frown had now been carved intensely on his face. He was still a bit worried about Melina's current situation and the fact that he only saw boys around him didn't help that much. He hoped his best-friend was at least comfy. He would take all this pushing and rushing for her.
Seconds trailed by, and then a loud voice interrupted his drifting thoughts. It was an old man grunting and, unfortunately, confirming Allen's fears. The boys were definitely being separated from the girls, and that couldn't be good. Well, at least not as bad as the old man Allen thought with a crooked smile.
He then shook his sarcastic remarks aside and started looking around for a carriage to hop in.

I had toget all the information from my friends in Diagon Alley, which was somewhat hard because the one that told me mostly everything was working in Flourish and Blotts. You had all these little kids running around and stuff."
Tancred looked at the old guy with disgust. He just couldn't stand people like that. Ordering younger people about and getting on everyone's nerves. He was so tempted to jinx the old man, but he was going to wait until he knew what was happening. "I hope he isn't a professor. If he is, I don't kno what I'll do. He's so annoying! What's so hard about getting onto carriages? Let's go!" He rolled his eyes. "Who does he think he is? The Minister of Magic or something?" He shook his head. If this old man was there throughout the term, he was not going to be a happy young man at all. In fact, he wasn't going to be very happy at all if he didn't see Lindsey soon. "And gross," Cale added. Geez, could that man eat. It was disgusting. "I just hope we aren't completely seperated," he mumbled, thinking of Cora and the Hogsmeade date they had planned. It was unbelieveable how much he missed her, and they weren't even on their way yet. "I don't think I can stand to be away from girls for a whole year," he said with a chuckle. "And with some of these blokes, I think I'll go mental," he added softly, mostly to himself, as he cast a look at Jason. I don't deserve my badge, what rubbish! he thought to himself. The nerve of that Weasley!

"Allen I could use some company" Jason told him. "As long as you do want HogWarts to be intregated and not segregated" Jason told him. Jason is thinking of ways of protesting about this segregation -which he never has done at all.

Tiaan looked around. Would he miss this if it was taken away? He didn't know the answer to that. He pushed his long black hair out of his face and moved towards the carriages for the boys. Not knowing where to go he sat down. By Himself like always looking around for other people. He was a "loner" he had to face the fact. never would be anything else. so he just sat and decorated his chuck taylors he happened to have on.

"Hmm, I'm not sure who has the badge now, no." He said, shaking his head and looking around as if someone with the Slytherin Quidditch badge would just jump out. Heh. No such luck.
But then something that Dan said made him laugh loudly. And it took alot to get Clifford to laugh at the moment. "Me? Captain? You have gotta be kidding." He snorted. "I wouldn't even be able to lead an army of ants to a picnic, let alone Slytherin to victory!" Nooo way.

So I know her way better than I'd choose, if it were up to me."
He brightened. "Hey, if they do keep us segregated, maybe they'll pick a male captain two, and have a girls' team and a guys' team? That'd be Shweeet! I bet they'd make you the male captain, if that happens."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Dexter Hayes First Year |
Dexter felt a little suffocated with the massive crowd pulsating around him, hurrying towards the carriages. He looked around him for someone he knew, anyone that he could share a carriage with. If anything, he didn't want to end up alone in a carriage with two strangers. He tightened his grip on his bags and Bront's carrier, hesitating before choosing a carriage. Someone, anyone, he thought.
As he shuffled along the path, he wondered why the boys and girls were separated. He'd never heard of this happening before. He smiled and thought of Gav, if anyone was going to get around it, it'd be him.

Quidditch talk was definately contagious - of course it was, it was the most fantabulous sprt in the whole entire world! - and with a grin Clifford turned to listen to the other guy, who apparently knew the new Captain.
"Captain Desdemona Abendroth?" He blinked in surprise. "How on Earth am I meant to remember a name that bloody long and confusing?" By the time he learnt how to say her name, the Quidditch season would be over!
"Does she really whip people?" Was that even allowed these days? "If she's going to whip us maybe separate boy and girl teams would be a good idea." He mumbled thoughtfully. Quote:

He figured Dan would've heard the other guy saying who the new Captain was, Clifford didn't even want to try and say her name again. It made his tongue hurt. "I'm not pesimistic." Whatever that even was. It sounded like an energy drink. "I might be a fair flyer.. but I have no leading skills." He shrugged.

It still hadn't clicked that Clifford was calling him Squeak, so the boy was quite lost. Quote:

Miles was saved.
He smiled up at him and walked towards the carriage and climbed in. "Thanks" Miles said to Clifford and sat down. There was also another boy in there with him, who seemed much younger than himself and Clifford. "Hey." He nodded towards the young boy. "Hi! I'm Aiden," the Gryffindor squeaked. Their carriage was getting rather crowded, he noticed. But this was okay by Aiden, because he was making friends. Perhaps this segregation wouldn't be so terrible; the second year HAD hoped to make more male friends this term. It really seemed like he was always surrounded by odd, giggly girls. Quote:

He now watched the burping going on infront of him with a rised smile and continued to watch the dog ... rodent .. thing in the younger boys ( who he now knew was named Aiden) hands. " I have a Cat " he said to nobody inparticular, thinking that seems how everyone else was talking about their pets that he should contribute too. "Eww," Aiden mumbled, frowning sheepishly. The boy was not a fan of cats, and he was also quite allergic. It didn't help his allergies that two of the Gryffindor's three sisters owned cats. Quote:

It was going to hard concentrating when his mind was filled with other things.. like: ImissEvieImissEvieImissEvieImissEvieImissEvieImiss Evie. "What about you? Are you gonna try out?" He knew Dan had been on the team previous terms. "What about you Miles? Do you play?" "I might try out this term," Aiden giggled. He had never been great at Quidditch, though he rarely had anyone to practice with, in his defense. His father was a muggle, and his mum didn't have the time. Adelia wasn't real... athletic. Amy would play with him, but she was only one person. And the twins, Addison and Abbie, well, they were a bit too young to play.

He tightened his grip on his bags and Bront's carrier, hesitating before choosing a carriage. Someone, anyone, he thought.
As he shuffled along the path, he wondered why the boys and girls were separated. He'd never heard of this happening before. He smiled and thought of Gav, if anyone was going to get around it, it'd be him. Having previously endured a constricting train ride, Cillian meandered through the grass. Soren, his new Screech owl, was perched in his cage, just as silent as his master was. Numerous people were walking about, trying to find a carriage with at least a single friend they could find.
Quickening his pace, he attempted to track down an empty carriage. As he prepared to do so, his attention was suddenly grasped by the sorry image of Dex, who was strolling around the same area. Cillian was unable to conceal his mirth as his newfound aquaintance anxiously hurried through the mass of people.

Haha. So he wasn't the only one that was having troubles with the new Captains name. That was good. It wouldn't like he was simply having speaking difficulties then. "Cliffie?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. It was weird when anyone other than Evangeline called him that.
Evangeline. Sigh. "Uhm -- Have a good summer then?" He asked quickly, trying to distract himself and not get too depressed. Quote:

He had a mental image of the boy giggling and squeaking at 100 foot in the air and chuckled in amusement.

Cillian was unable to conceal his mirth as his newfound aquaintance anxiously hurried through the mass of people. Dexter glanced to the right in his search for a familiar face and was flooded with relief while his heart sank a few meters into his stomach. He wasn't sure how he ought to feel about seeing Cillian here. While he was lucky enough to find someone he knew and he liked Cillian, sort of, he knew that Cillian would verbally destroy him as soon as he said hello. And he still couldn't believe he'd told him all that stuff last time! Still, Cillian was someone he knew and Dexter would have to count his blessings.
Dexter scurried over to him, dodging other student's bags and animals, evoking yowls from Bront's cage. He stopped abruptly in front of his taller aquaintance. He could hear Bront hissing at Cillian's owl from inside the carrier. "Hello, Cilly," he said, attempting to smile slightly at him. "Uhm..would you...ah... mind choosing and uh... sharing a carriage?"
