There were so many people now it was hard to tell. Hogwarts did have close to 8 thousand students, it was no wonder the train was this crowded. "This is Eino and his, um, pet Faustus," she said gesturing to the boy holding the cactus. "Over here is Emmaleigh..." who else was in here? Kurumi had even forgotten herself. Just then, Walnut purred very loudly.You are forgetting the most important person in this room. "Oh, and this is Walnut, my munchkin cat," she said petting the feline on her lap. "He is a little sensitive about his short legs," she whispered.

Eino shook his head at Kurumi's suggestion. "I can't." He said stubbornly. "I'm not sure of all his magical properties and neither I don't want to get into trouble for having him nor exploit him." He didn't want to force him to collect more dew, the only solution was to have more cacti like Faustus but that would be difficult to accomplish and he couldn't just create them as objects they would needs homes and good owners.



"A video recorder..." Eino repeated, puzzled, as Emmaleigh explained and demonstrated its use. As she began sat down, Eino quickly pulled Faustus from the seat. That was a close one. He didn't know who would hurt more from that. He watched as the imagine in front of him replayed in the screen, he could see Hugo, Fee, and Quirrha on it, and they were very tiny, and also very bright. What a curious device. "A video recorder." He said one last time trying to memorize it. "So, we can record an event and then replay it?" It sounded interesting, but Eino didn't see how that would help them catch pogrebins, or any other creatures, for that matter. "How will this help us, Emmaleigh?" He was really happy regardless, that she had thought of Y.W.H.O. and had brought the device to help them. Most importantly, pogrebin infestation awareness had been spreading and the Y.W.H.O. seemed to be growing not only into a club of hunters but a group of close friends.





For a minute, Eino turned his attention to Kurumi who had introduced him to another boy. Kurumi had a lot of boy SPACE friends, no wonder Adam was so jealous. Eino waved at the boy and showing him Faustus as he was introduced. Faustus didn't do anything this time, maybe he was tired. "Nice to meet you."

But it also does this." she said as she flipped the screen around, and turned the camcorder around so that they now saw themselves on the screen. "it can be used to see whats going on behind us, like if a pogrebin is following you. But" she said, Handing the device back to Eino, reaching for her bag. "These will do the same thing." she said as she pulled out a mirror.



Looking up when she heard Kurumi mention her name, Emmaleigh realised she was being introduced to someone else. She smiled up at the guy. She was sure that see had seen him around before, but had never actually met him. "Hello." she said extending her hand for him to shake.




She then looked around and noticed how crowed the compartment actually was. There were alot of familiar faces, but she hadn't met most of them. She turned as the boy beside Fenella began to introduce himself. "It's nice to meet you Hugo, I'm Emmaleigh." she said smiling.

Eino waited an extended amount of time after Adam had spoken for him to begin, too long even. Awkward silence. "I studied for most of the time," Eino began, "worked on a few things for Y.W.H.O.," he exhibited his Y.W.H.O. badge on his robe, "and Faustus." He ended motioning to the cactus. "What about you?"

He felt like he needed to introduce himself to the strange people and wondered how much of the conversation he had missed out on. He turned to the boy, who was older than him, and the girl, who was about his age and said: "Hello, I'm Hugo Doyle, second year Ravenclaw," and extended his hand for them to shake. The girl actually looked a bit familiar, but hey, they were all from Hogwarts right?

As soon as Hugo was wide awake, he noticed there was NO cat on his lap. No cat? Oh noooes. He started to make funny sounds with his mouth to louer the kitty Walnut to him. "Come, Walnut... I won't hurt you!" He whispered and made a clicking sound.

"F-Faustus?" he repeated. You mean this Eino kid actually named the plant? Salander was trying to keep his face straight but couldnt keep the corner of his lips from curling up just slightly. "Good choice for a pet...." he said tilting his head at the plant. Suddenly he added ".... it doesnt need to be walked much does it?" Cuz you know... it got ROOTS. But he was distracted by the badge on the boy's chest. What another badge? "Whats that YWHO?"

He shifted his attention to the young girl named Emmaleigh and shook her hand. "Pleased to meetcha Emmaleigh." His eyes lit up at the gadget in her hand. He knew these stuff! "Hey is that a camcorder?" he asked pointing to the gadget. Havent seen any of them oldschool things since that class trip to the Smithsonians.He listened to them talking about catching something. Pogrebins? What?

He could hear the purring coming from a small creature on Kurumi's lap. It looked like a cat. Or at least sounded like one. In the magical world, you can never be too sure you know. "Hi there li--- he caught himself. Didnt Kurumi just warn him about that creature's height? "Hi there Walnut." he smiled slightly, as his hand hovered over its furry head. "Wait.... does this bite?"

Because for Salander, small seemingly harmless little critters could be the death of him.



He looked up at a Ravenclaw boy who introduced himself "Good meetin' yah Doyle. Salander. 5th year Slytherin." he replied as he shook the other boy's hand.


His eye caught a familiar looking blonde girl he remembered seeing at the Slytherin table "Uhmmm, Faye right?" Was it? He thought it sounded like that anyway "Saw you breakfast time at the Slytherin table last year. You walked over and said hello just when I was about to give that owl a maple syrup bath." And the owl was just lucky she came when she did.

Eino asked curiously, with his eyes fixed on the device and the tiny headphone things. Regardless, Eino was now much more appreciative of muggle devices, which he often feared as a result of ignorance. Having grown up in a pureblood family, he was never exposed to the muggle world.
