The driver and snack lady sit waaaaaay up front in the driver's cab, but there are plenty of other compartments up here! Careful you don't sit in the Prefects' cab though.
Why does Alec keep on saying erm? Let's see once he noticed my cousin it looked like he saw a ghost. He keeps saying erm, especially when speaking to her. Let's see. Nate thought. He was stroking his cat while he was thinking. Then it hit him! "Alec are you having trouble with girls??" Nate wondered with a questioned look on his face. "I'm good. My summer was good." He replied
"Blink twice if yes. Then blink three times if you need my help. Since last year I finally learned how to understand girls. When they don't talk to you they're hurt. When they hurt you in a physical way they like you. When they hurt you in a mental way then they hate you." He stated proudly and confidently. "Also this is just one of my cousins. I have one in Ravenclaw, so I don't see her to often. Are you excited on coming back to Hogwarts? I know I am." He said to Alec with a smile on his face.

"Oh, no... don't go." Had his inner thoughts come into his actual expression? Ohhh, snap, he needed to work on that. "You should stay, or else I'll probably stay asleep when we need to get off and I'll be stuck on this train forever." Theo actually shuddered at the thought. Anyway...
"How has your summer been? My brother said he met someone called Ella and I wondered if it was you." ........... D:
Ella frowned. His mother wouldn't do something like that...would she? Ella highly doubted any more would do something like that though her own mother was the worst so.... "I'm sure she didn't mean to, Theodore. Sometimes meat can be erm...dodgy in general. I don't blame you for being angry, though. Being sick is the worst." Though maybe she could help somehow? She had some snacks and stuff in her trunk. She could run and get him something. "Can I do anything to help? Do you need anything?" She wasn't a healer or anything but she'd be willing to try.
"Um...okay. I'll stay." Ella said, giving Theodore a small smile. She walked over and sat down across from the second year, listening as he went on. EEP! Stuck on the train forever? >.< "That would be horrible...imagine? And there wouldn't be nearly enough ice cream to keep you full." THE HORROR. "Yeah...you shouldn't go back to sleep."
Summer? "Summer was fun. I spent a lot of time in Diagon Alley...ate lots of ice cream, met some new people. How was yours?" She actually hadn't seen Theodore all summer...though she had met his brother, Casper. Speaking of-"Yeah, that was me. I um...I sat with him at Florean's. He's um...he's nice." Nice-ish. That was a better description.
Ronnie frowned. Poor guy. "I'm real sorry about that, Isaac." she said. She hated to see him so sad, so she decided to change the subject. "Who's this?" she asked, nodding her head at the owl that was with him. It was a very beautiful owl, no doubt about it! She hoped Oliver wouldn't try to attack or anything...she'd never had him around an owl before. Well, it didn't really matter right now since the little guy was fast asleep in her lap.
Ronnie looked up as she heard the door open again, and smiled at the sight of Dylan. "Hiya, Dill Pickle!" she said with a grin. She was going to call him that ALL THE TIME now. All the time. Yes. She really was. Heheheheh. Hopefully he wouldn't get tired of it, ever. Because she really liked that nickname. "You can join us if you want," she said, gesturing to the open spot next to her with her hand. "There's plenty of room."

Isaac then offered him a place in the compartment, he wanted to sit with Ronnie her being a fun girl and all but he had no idea what this Isaac was like, what if he was a boring guy? Dylan didnt want to be bored for the rest of the journey. He was about to decline when Ronnie piped up with his nickname that she had given him.
Dylan chuckled still trying to get used to being called Dill Pickle "Hi Ronnie good to see you" he smiled as he looked at her and he was about to make an excuse to leave them together when she offered for him to join them too.. so they both wanted a firstie to join them? well if it was going to be fun then he was all up for it.. and he would only know if he spent time talking to them. "Ok sure I can join you." he sat down in the empty spot that she gestured to him. This felt strange.. all this time he was dreaming of the day that he would be on his way to Hogwarts and now that day was finally here, he was actually on the train sitting on his way to Hogwarts and soon they will be there "So Isaac.. what year are you in?" he asked.. might as well get to know each other.. right? since they were going to be together for the entire journey.
Making a face he gave her a smile despite how irritated he was. Looking down between his feet "His name's Sprite, me mum gave me 'im hoping I'll keep in contact more." Ugh, he was horrible about writing letters! "Dill Pickle?" he asked curiously before looking at the boy who had entered again. Then the kid didn't even correct her! What in Merlin's name was he supposed to call the kid? He wasn't going to call him Dill Pickle!
Handing out flyers? "What were the flyers fer?" he asked curiously. The kid seemed kind of hesitant to sit with them, and he didn't blame him. Would Isaac have wanted to join a compartment with two older kids if he was a firstie? No probably not. Then the no name kid sat down with them, and he relaxed back against the seat, he wondered where Ed and Nell had wandered off to. Then he also wondered if he'd snogged her like Isaac had poked him to do as a joke.
Looking up as the boy asked what year he was in. "I'm a 7th year."

Dylan realised something.. intros!! "Oh! I haven't told you my name.. its Dylan Jacobs.. or you can call me DJ." he smiled.. might as well be nice to someone who was nice to him.. right? Then Isaac asked him a question "The flyers? oh some Selina girl something-or-other had lost her beater's bat.. and wanted us to hand them out as punishment. So thats what we did, handed out these flyers.. thats how I met Ronnie" he chuckled as he heard him answer his question after he had answered his. Another seventh year? he wondered if all the older kids were seventh years.. though they didnt seem to be "So you leaving this year? how do you feel about that?" he asked him.. before turning to Ronnie "Hey Ronnie what year you in?" cause she didnt seem like a seventh year.. younger than that.

"I got some treats for you guys if you're hungry.." she said, opening it and showing them the goodies inside. Maybe this would cheer up Isaac a bit? She really hoped so. She hated to see him so down.
Ronnie smiled as Isaac told her about the owl. "Sprite...I like that name. He's adorable." she exclaimed, looking at the owl. "Hello, Sprite!" she said. Ronnie then laughed. "That's Dylan. But I call him Dill Pickle." she said, still laughing. It was a weird nickname, that's true, but Ronnie didn't care. She really liked calling him it. She smiled at Dylan's question. "Fifth year." she answered.

She shrugged and looked outside instead, no need for crying. She wasn't a baby after all.
Just then she heard a familiar voice and looked away from the window. Opposite her sat the boy she met at the ice-cream place... Logan! She smiled at him, glad to see a familiar face. 'Hi..' Harlan sat up in her seat and grinned at the boy. 'Oh... just... I don't really want to go to Hogwarts that badly..' She nodded, that was about right. But now that she had Logan to hang out with it was only getting better. It was just that it would be even better if Hogwarts was in Derryvane.
Awww.
Logan hated to see his awesome buddy like this. But the grin she sent him was a good thing because it meant that she was a little happier now. "I get what you mean." He kinda did want to go, though there was a part of him that didn't. "But hey, we got each other and other friends so, it won't be that bad!"
Grinning back, he offered her some of the candy that he had gotten from the food trolley. Maybe she would like to share it with him.

And a chocolate frog to the winner? I will take that bet and even throw in some Bott's Beans," she said as she dug around in her bag and extracted the beans.
Turning her attention to the one clearly named Lex she smiled sweetly. She was a little thing, wasn't she? "I won't forget that name. My cousin's name is Lexi. And I am Jacks... or Addy. But I am growing fond of Jacks lately," she said with a snort as she held her hand out to the younger girl.
And then she cut her eyes to the QUIET ONE. She needed a laugh, it seemed. All that sulking and calling people by their incorrect names and such. No. "I sing quite poorly. Think I should give it a go?" Heh.
Oh, bad singing? Yes. Absolutely. That was a brilliant start even if Lex was slotted to go first. Genevieve didn't require anyone to stand up for her, but she let Jacks do it regardless.
And she gave the girl a little salute. Sing away, sailor.

Oh, great. Welcome to the already crowded compartment, person.. who seemed to have a problem with her calling Genie 'Missy'. "If I knew her name, I wouldn't be calling her Missy now." DUH.
Waiiiit. WHAT!? She wanted to make her smile TOO? What is this? 'Make Abby smile contest'? "Listen.. whoever you are. If you really plan on bringing a smile to my pretty face, singing poorly is not going to do it." Just sayin'. Chace was the only person who could make her smile and he wasn't around. SO. Try as much as you want, people.
Genie? Well. That was a bit painful and Genevieve gave the end of her ponytail a violent twirl before smiling broadly. Too broadly, really, for anyone who knew her.
"Nicknames already? We're like, totally besties and whatever. I'm going to call you Hasty." Because hobbits were ... no. Not because of that. Because of her last name, CLEARLY.
"You should just give up and smile already. We'll call it a draw and you can share the spoils of war." Namely... chocolate frogs.

"Nah, you're not that pretty, I was just staring because you're that girl that got all gross back at the platform!!" Yes she remembered her well. How could she forget when she was the first thing she saw upon crossing the wall? "I'll tell you one thing, I nearly went blind! Imagine walking through the wall and the first thing to greet you is two older kids kissing!" It was almost too much for the 11 year old!
She shrugged. "But if you want, I can lie that I think you're super pretty and that I'm staring for that reason!" She offered with an eager smile. Older girls liked getting lied to, that was obviously why they asked questions that already had clear-cut answers.
"Ohhhh!" She nodded slowly as she tried to understand...well it did make sense....
"Oh yeah I do!" She dipped into the bag and pulled out a handful of pumpkin fizzes. "I don't particularly like these but I like seeing a full bag of candy and I had run out of options." Anything to make it looked like she had a treasure trove of candy!
Oh so she would be going first...hmm...she listened to the rules before trying to figure exactly how she would play it. So she couldn't touch her and she couldn't use magic...that would be hard--older kids hardly laughed without those two measures!!!
But hearing the girl tell the other girl that there was a chocolate frog at stake gave her new determination.
She turned to the girl. Hmmm...how would she do this...? The girl seemed bent on not smiling....
She turned to the girl that had just arrived again. She might as well had as she waited for inspiration to hit. She gave her a smile when she said she wouldn't forget her name. Good, because she didn't like being forgotten and the smile got wider when she threw in some candy of her own! "Oh, well I like Jacks too so I'll call you that!"
She giggled when Jacks offered to sing. This had been enough to get her, even though the girl hadn't song a note yet. "Sure give it a go!"
She looked over at the grumpy girl again when she assured Jacks that her singing wouldn't help. Hmmm...so singing wouldn't work. It was too bad though because she wanted to hear some bad singing!
Genevieve took a pumpkin fizz silently, letting it settle on her tongue and fizzzzzz away while she watched the action in front of her. This could either go really well or devolve quickly... either way, it was amusing.
"Now, now, Lex. Insulting your prey is not the way to earn yourself a smile. Unless it's a funny insult." And generally speaking, telling someone they were ugly and gross was less than hilarious. Girlfriend needed to work on her insults. "For example..." She turned to the rather squashy looking cat that Jacks had deposited on the seat.
"Your cat is so fat... it's using all nine lives at once." No offense meant. Cat was kinda cute.

Okay. 1. Why was this one looking at her so funny? 2. What was so important in her bag that she was guarding it so? 3. Did she need to get the ring to Mordor or something? SNORT. Geddit... she is ickle. Anyway...
Jacks had just set Yoda the Obese in the seat next to her and got settled when she heard the little one tell the quiet one she was NOT that pretty. HEHEHEH. Oh how lovely. Jacks began to giggle and snort all over the place. HEHEH. Putting a hand over her mouth she just shifted her eyes back and forth between them.
She needed to sing. SHE NEEDED TO SING. Maybe she wasn't that bad... Clearing her throat and taking a moment to compose herself she began to belt out some greatness:
"IT'S TRICKY TO ROCK A RHYME, TO ROCK A RHYME THAT'S RIGHT ON TIME-- IT'S TRICKY, TRICKY, TRICKY!" They were familiar with it, no? THEY SHOULD SING ALONG. Well... RAP along. It was a sick beat, yo.
Oh. Merlin. NO. Genevieve let Jacks shout sing at the top of her lungs for a few painful minutes before she covered her ears and leaned in to speak to Lex.
Dylan realised something.. intros!! "Oh! I haven't told you my name.. its Dylan Jacobs.. or you can call me DJ." he smiled.. might as well be nice to someone who was nice to him.. right? Then Isaac asked him a question "The flyers? oh some Selina girl something-or-other had lost her beater's bat.. and wanted us to hand them out as punishment.

He had his own keeper's gloves but knew he'd probably not even be using them this term! He'd be seeker he was sure after Dylan's talk last term. UGH, he really preferred keeper. "I am, I don' know yet. I kind of will miss it, I've enjoyed the last 2 years a lot, so it'll take some getting used te."
OOOHHH! "Nom! Thanks!" he said reaching in for a cookie and a can of coke. He should go and pull down his bag from up above that had pumpkin pasties, beans and chocolate frogs in it, but figured he'd wait til later, when they were really starving! Munching on a cookie, he smiled as she spoke to Sprite, breaking off a piece of cookie he watched as Sprite ruffled his feathers at her, and held a piece through the bars towards him. "He definitely appears te be a Sprite." he said nodding smiling affectionately at his owl.

Lex stared over at the older girl in awe. It was like she didn't care what she was saying...just speaking her mind like it didn't matter. Whoa...she wanted to be like that one day. Yeah sure she was already like that but at her age she would have gotten a proper pounding from the older kids she'd give a piece of her mind to. That was not all what she wanted so she would just admire this girl until her day came.
O_____O
That was it? That was the singing? Lex snickered a bit. "I don't think she'll smile to that anytime soon." She said, hardly able to control the ripples of giggles. This had to be the worst singing ever but that just made it all the more funny!

"Maybe it's your turn now. Do NOT sing."
Lex chuckled a bit when Genevieve told her that her method of amusement was wrong but also because she referred to the girl as her prey. The more this girl talked was the more she liked her; she had an interesting mind that most older kids didn't. "Yeah, I don't think anyone would laugh while being insulted. I was just getting something out there before I started my turn." She might as well had.
She took a seat and watched the girl demonstrate the correct way to insult someone. Her eyes fell to the fattest cat she had ever seen. Merlin she was happy Felix wasn't that big because he didn't like walking and she wouldn't have been able to carry him around the way she did if he was so huge.
.....
Once again this girl had amused her. Gosh why couldn't all older kids be like her? She stifled another laugh when she told her it was her turn then advised her not to sing.
"Don't worry, I know I'm not much of a singer to begin with." She hopped off the seat and right over to the girl, being very careful not to touch her. "Hey girly, I think I know why you're so grouchy." she said, beaming over at her. She had seen this too many times and though it disgust her others seemed to like it. "You're looking for your boyfriend aren't you? Well I know where he is and I'll tell you if you smile--lead you there myself if you laugh."

"So, Isaac," she said. "You excited for this term?" she asked, taking another drink of her coke. Mmmm, her favorite!
Landon Hughes was walking through the front part of the train, trying to find his best friend. Melanie, of course. He was behind a girl who was bouncing dramatically and he didn't understand how one could bounce for that long. He shook his head at her and continued to follow the line of people. He took his sunglasses off and placed it into his bag, beside the pig rabbit Melanie had given him in Diagon Alley. He wouldn't dare take it out while he stayed at Hogwarts, unless he was by himself...then maybe he would.
He watched as the bouncing girl walked into a compartment to his right and he continued forward, until he heard those familiar voices. He stopped and took a couple steps backwards, looking into the compartment where the blonde haired girl went into. He grinned as he saw Melanie and Alice. He walked into their compartment and dropped his bag, opening his arms out wide. "Well come on! I missed my two favorite girls in the world, I have to have a hug from the both of you! Didn't you miss me?" He smiled.
Her best friend was in the compartment. Which meant that the train ride to Hogwarts had officially started. When Landon dropped his bag and opened his arms, Melanie giggled and got up from her seat, careful not to let her blanket fall on the ground and hugged him. "Of course we missed you, Pobby," Melanie said, grinning. Well, she did kinda. He was her best friend... and she missed him on the platform. There were people she missed more though.
"I hope nothing broke in your bag though," Melanie said, eying the bag the boy had just dropped on the floor. Because it might've and that wouldn't be good at all.
Melanie looked at Alice then back at Landon... then at Alice again. "Well, take a seat!!!" she said, "I made you fried Oreos... just in case," Melanie added, taking a seat. She laid her blanket back on her lap then picked her bag off of the ground. Unzipping it, she rummaged through it, pulling out her plastic container of fried Oreos. Not her teddy. Not yet at least... because then Landon might scream or panic or something.

Marigold walked into an empty compartment. She felt alone now that she saw so many older students chatting with friends. She hoped someone would sit with her. Meanwhile, she shuffled her bags around until she found the one with her books in it. She opened How Not To Blow Off Your Fingers On The First Day by Julius Gummidge. She had already read it three times, but at this rate, being so nervous, she would need it. It only took a couple minutes before she was absorbed into the book.
OOC:If you come into my compartment, please leave a visitor message just in case I miss your post. Thanks!
Lex snorted a bit when the girl wondered whether or not she was staring because of her beauty. It wasn't that the girl was ugly but that she was an older girl and well...those all looked alike at the end of the day when they were yelling at you for no reason.
"Nah, you're not that pretty, I was just staring because you're that girl that got all gross back at the platform!!" Yes she remembered her well. How could she forget when she was the first thing she saw upon crossing the wall? "I'll tell you one thing, I nearly went blind! Imagine walking through the wall and the first thing to greet you is two older kids kissing!" It was almost too much for the 11 year old!
She shrugged. "But if you want, I can lie that I think you're super pretty and that I'm staring for that reason!" She offered with an eager smile. Older girls liked getting lied to, that was obviously why they asked questions that already had clear-cut answers.
Abby rolled her eyes at the girl. Not pretty.. PFFT. She knew she was pretty and Chace thought she was pretty.. that was more than enough for her. As for the kissing.. Heh. That wasn't her problem. "I'm sorry you had to see that." Abby said, not feeling sorry at all.
"No, you don't have to lie." Abby shrugged and settled more comfortable in her seat. Heh. This was going to be long ride.

She needed to sing. SHE NEEDED TO SING. Maybe she wasn't that bad... Clearing her throat and taking a moment to compose herself she began to belt out some greatness:
"IT'S TRICKY TO ROCK A RHYME, TO ROCK A RHYME THAT'S RIGHT ON TIME-- IT'S TRICKY, TRICKY, TRICKY!" They were familiar with it, no? THEY SHOULD SING ALONG. Well... RAP along. It was a sick beat, yo.
Singing and DANCING!? And before Abby could protest, the girl had started to sing.
.....Abby stared. Oh, wow. She had no idea that people could be so bad at singing. And, what on earth was she singing? Bad song, bad voice. Abby covered her eyes as her eyes shifted towards the window again. She was sure her ears were bleeding.
"YOU GOTTA STOP." So, girl. Singing badly wasn't really making Abby smile. If it wasn't obvious already.

"Nicknames already? We're like, totally besties and whatever. I'm going to call you Hasty." Because hobbits were ... no. Not because of that. Because of her last name, CLEARLY.
"You should just give up and smile already. We'll call it a draw and you can share the spoils of war." Namely... chocolate frogs.
"Besties?" Abby raised an eyebrow. She really couldn't see them being besties. Not when Genie had been annoying her from the second she entered the compartment. Although, Abby had to admit.. Genie wasn't half as bad as the rude little girl. UGH.
Hasty? EW. "As long as you're the only one who calls me that." Abby shrugged. She didn't mind really. Hasty was better than 'Miss Thing' anyway. As for her giving up.. Hm. Abby gave a stiff smile for a second. "Is that enough?" Hopefully, that would stop people from singing.. EEK.

"Hey girly, I think I know why you're so grouchy." she said, beaming over at her. She had seen this too many times and though it disgust her others seemed to like it. "You're looking for your boyfriend aren't you? Well I know where he is and I'll tell you if you smile--lead you there myself if you laugh."
And.. the annoying little girl was speaking to her again. Abby sighed and listened to the girl say that she knew where Chace was. Yeah, right. "Yeah.. No. That's not going to work. You're going to have to do better than that, girly."
Ronnie smiled as he said he'd join them. YAY!"Good! This'll be fun!" she said with a grin, taking out a picnic basket that sat next to her. "I got some treats for you guys if you're hungry.." she said, opening it and showing them the goodies inside. Maybe this would cheer up Isaac a bit? She really hoped so. She hated to see him so down.
Ronnie smiled as Isaac told her about the owl. "Sprite...I like that name. He's adorable." she exclaimed, looking at the owl. "Hello, Sprite!" she said. Ronnie then laughed. "That's Dylan. But I call him Dill Pickle." she said, still laughing. It was a weird nickname, that's true, but Ronnie didn't care. She really liked calling him it. She smiled at Dylan's question. "Fifth year." she answered.

He had his own keeper's gloves but knew he'd probably not even be using them this term! He'd be seeker he was sure after Dylan's talk last term. UGH, he really preferred keeper. "I am, I don' know yet. I kind of will miss it, I've enjoyed the last 2 years a lot, so it'll take some getting used te."
OOOHHH! "Nom! Thanks!" he said reaching in for a cookie and a can of coke. He should go and pull down his bag from up above that had pumpkin pasties, beans and chocolate frogs in it, but figured he'd wait til later, when they were really starving! Munching on a cookie, he smiled as she spoke to Sprite, breaking off a piece of cookie he watched as Sprite ruffled his feathers at her, and held a piece through the bars towards him. "He definitely appears te be a Sprite." he said nodding smiling affectionately at his owl.

"So, Isaac," she said. "You excited for this term?" she asked, taking another drink of her coke. Mmmm, her favorite!
Dylan smiled as she said it would be fun.. well thats what he loved. He loved to have fun all the more reason to stay around here, he then saw the treats that she had gotten them. Wow she was one nice and fun girl, she had only just met Dylan and was offering him some of the snacks in her basket. He saw that there were some candy lollipops that he was wanting bad, he smiled as Ronnie said that she was a fifth year. Well he wouldnt have thought that she was with how fun she was "Thats cool! Have you both enjoyed being at Hogwarts? " even with all the strict professors and all he finished in his head before he heard Isaac talking to him "Nice to meet you too Isaac" he smiled.. see there DJ was being nice now.
Dylan looked at Isaac as he burst into laughter as he saw a few of them "Yeah.. yeah they were" he laughed with Isaac.. so this guy could be fun too? awesome! time to hang out with some oldies. Dylan listened as Isaac talked about his final year "Yeah I guess it wont hit you just yet, you did? well I guess its good that you did enjoy your last 2 years" he wondered what the reason behind that could be.. was it some awesome spells and potions that he did.. cause Dylan would love to do the same. He couldn't wait for those! Dylan then listened as Ronnie and Isaac talked as he grabbed that lollipop that he saw before.. mmm he did love his candy

Shaking his head "I know there's seers out there, me mum's one of 'em but I didn't think we had one in the quidditch people!" Snorting he shook his head again, she should have known they'd end up in last place last term then too right? "Yeah, it'll be awhile, especially when this is the last time I'll be taking the train te school." he really hadn't thought of that much, he'd be taking it home again he knew. "Yep, only been here two years but it's become like home fer me."

Ronnie nodded. "Yes, I have been! I'm sure you'll just love it." she said. She really was, it was one of the bestest places ever!
She watched as he grabbed a lollipop, and decided to do the same. She snatched a blue one and began to lick it. Mmmm, Ronnie just LOVED candy! One of the best things out there, she even had it for breakfast once!...which wasn't really a good choice...she had felt so sick that day, she had to skip most of her classes!

"Aww, I'm sure you'll do fine." Ronnie said reassuringly. "Oh, me? I'm very excited!" she said with an eager nod. She could almost feel the warmth of the fire in the common room, and her cozy bed. And she could just almoost taste that delicious food at the feast! Mmmmm!
She listened as Isaac spoke, when suddenly Oliver jumped up from her lap and onto the floor. "Whoaaaa...Oliver! I thought you were asleep!" she exclaimed, watching as the cat trotted over to the owl in the cage, sniffing at it. Oliver stood there, sniffing and then suddenly swiped at the cage, hissing, the fur on his back raising. "Oliver!" Ronnie cried, picking up the cat who began to squirm in her grasp. "You know better! Sprite is our friend, you be nice!" she scolded, waggling a finger at the kitten. He really should know better, Sprite hadn't done anything to harm Oliver!
She sighed and took down Oliver's crate and opened it. "You'll be riding for the rest of the trip in here." she said with a firm nod as she tried to put Oliver in who struggled to get out of her hands. "Stop doing that...Oliver! Come on! Just go in!" she said through gritted teeth as she finally got him in. She slammed it shut before he could run out. Oliver stood there in the crate, his tail swishing back and forth quickly. Ronnie shot the cat a look and then looked back at Isaac. "Sorry about him." she said with a frown. "I have no idea what had gotten into him..."

"YOU GOTTA STOP." So, girl. Singing badly wasn't really making Abby smile. If it wasn't obvious already.
"Besties?" Abby raised an eyebrow. She really couldn't see them being besties. Not when Genie had been annoying her from the second she entered the compartment. Although, Abby had to admit.. Genie wasn't half as bad as the rude little girl. UGH.
Hasty? EW. "As long as you're the only one who calls me that." Abby shrugged. She didn't mind really. Hasty was better than 'Miss Thing' anyway. As for her giving up.. Hm. Abby gave a stiff smile for a second. "Is that enough?" Hopefully, that would stop people from singing.. EEK.
And.. the annoying little girl was speaking to her again. Abby sighed and listened to the girl say that she knew where Chace was. Yeah, right. "Yeah.. No. That's not going to work. You're going to have to do better than that, girly."
That... was almost a smile. Almost. But it didn't seem sincere and the girl wasn't in any better a mood than she'd been when they started, so Genevieve shook her head, setting her long blond ponytail in motion. Nope nope nope.
"I wouldn't be able to pay out even a ketchup flavored Bott bean for that smile. You looked like you were passing a kidney stone." And since it was her turn... Genevieve accepted it as a challenge.
Hasty would smile. She would remove the abnormally large stick up her posterior region. And she would not make this train ride a complete drag for everyone with her rotten mood.

Lex chuckled a bit when Genevieve told her that her method of amusement was wrong but also because she referred to the girl as her prey. The more this girl talked was the more she liked her; she had an interesting mind that most older kids didn't. "Yeah, I don't think anyone would laugh while being insulted. I was just getting something out there before I started my turn." She might as well had.
She took a seat and watched the girl demonstrate the correct way to insult someone. Her eyes fell to the fattest cat she had ever seen. Merlin she was happy Felix wasn't that big because he didn't like walking and she wouldn't have been able to carry him around the way she did if he was so huge.
.....
Once again this girl had amused her. Gosh why couldn't all older kids be like her? She stifled another laugh when she told her it was her turn then advised her not to sing.
"Don't worry, I know I'm not much of a singer to begin with." She hopped off the seat and right over to the girl, being very careful not to touch her. "Hey girly, I think I know why you're so grouchy." she said, beaming over at her. She had seen this too many times and though it disgust her others seemed to like it. "You're looking for your boyfriend aren't you? Well I know where he is and I'll tell you if you smile--lead you there myself if you laugh."
Hm. Bribery was an interesting tact, especially since it had worked so well on Lex back at the station. Still, Genevieve wasn't sure, but she thought bringing up the boyfriend was exactly the opposite way to cheer Hasty up. Ick, though. She could appreciate Lex's disgust.
"Let me try." She stood and gestured for Lex to hop up on the seat... and NOT to step on the big old cat. "M'lady. Can I have this dance?" Genevieve bowed low and offered a hand to Lex. They were going to waltz on the seats. Genevieve may have hated her debutante days with a burning passion, but she did know how to dance.
Justin made his way to an empty compartment and threw his stuff up in the overhead bin. then he threw himself into his seat. He put on his jumper putting it's hood up and over his head and face... Right now he preferred to block the world away.
Munching on the cookie as he opened his coke, he sat back again on the seat nodding "I am, nervous about not doing well on me NEWTs this term but excited fer the term te start. How about ye?" Taking a long drink of the coke he smiled, nice pure sugar and caffeine, fantastic!

Dylan listened as Isaac talked about his NEWTs.. well he didnt know the guy well enough to make that judgment so he stayed quiet.. maybe Ronnie knew more about him to be able to say whether he would do well or not. He then watched him shake his head.. Dylan couldnt help but burst out laughing at his seers comment, this guy was not bad he was actually fun to be around.. well what do you know.. Dylan had found more fun people. "Well I guess we do have one on the team, but wouldnt that count as cheating or something?" he asked not sure what it would mean if there was an actual seer on the team. He nodded as he talked "Yeah thats true.. only two years? wow." it had become like home for him in 2years? wow that was such a short time.. wasnt it? "Well thats good that it has, its probably been a lot of fun too.. so thats good!" he hoped that school had been fun for Isaac.. if not.. then Dylan really hoped that the school had changed a little so that he could have some fun.
"Awesome! thats good" yup good news for him cause that meant that maybe.. just maybe he would enjoy Hogwarts too.. and that would be good for him. He watched her grab a lollipop too and watched as she seemed to enjoy it.. so another candy loving girl.. well looks like he wouldnt be alone in eating candy at least. He then listened as she said just what he thought she would say after having known the boy for longer .. well if she said it then he could agree.. cause he had to be honest the boy did look smart "Yeah I agree with Ronnie" though he felt weird for saying so since he had only just met the boy. Dylan then watched as her cat went after Isaac's owl in his cage, she grabbed him just in time and put him into the carrier.. "Yeah its a good to keep him inside.. that was what started the whole Train climbing thing.. thats why Leo is in his carrier." he looked at Leo.. glad that he was inside his carrier.. he did not want a repeat of what had happened on the platform. Cause he didnt fancy being punished all over again and that too before he had even arrived at the school
Elliot eyed the girl, a little eye roll escaping her. Of course it was dull to Lottie..she as a CHILD. "Well good. I'm pureblood, too. And my family goes way back as well. What's your last name again, Lottie?" she asked curiously. She raised an eyebrow at the..puff. Hahaha!
"You have a pygmy puff? Are you going to introduce us? Jeeze Lottie, where's your manners?" she joked, a smirk playing across her face. SHe glanced out the window, watching many of the parents on the platform saying goodbye. She longed to see hers. But she wouldn't say this aloud.
She turned back to the little Lottie. But she snorted..."You met a boy? Lottie..he was a seventh year?" Smirksmirksmirk. She felt bad crushing the girl's little heart...but it was severely unlikely that a SEVENTH year would ...have a crush on Lottie. Which it sounded like Lottie had on the older boy...
Elliot thought about the boy's name.."I know of him. never actually talked to him. Maybe you can introduce us, hmm?" she said politely. Vickers. Eh, she had heard him talk in class and stuff. "Speaking of boys..." she began, then stopped, wanting Lottie to press for more. BECAUSE ELLIOT HAD A CRUSH. She guessed she could call it that.
And she would finally admit it to herself, too, that she DID like Ezzi.
"Oh, Dani's fine," she sighed, missing her little sister already. "She's off to Beauxbatons as we speak..." she was worried about her sister starting a foreign school..knowing only a handful of people...but Elliot had started only knowing a few people...Dani would be fine..."You better write to her...she won't shut up about you, Lottie," she warned, giving the a warning eyebrow-raise.
Oh. No. She didn't say she was pureblood. She didn't correct Elliot either. However, it just hit her. It wasn't her last name the one Merlin could've known, and a small frown appeared on her face. It was instantly erased. Seemed like Lottie had lots of research to do in regards to the family she never got to meet. Or, well, yeah, she had research to do. Her aunt will take care of that for her. She didn't have the time to search for stuff. Regardless of what a great finder she was.
"Wisteria," she smiled, "And we all... get named... after plants." Well, that was obvious. No need to point it out.
Anyway. She shrugged. Enough of the ancient ways.
OH! HER MANNERS! "Probably lend them to Vickers," she shook her head, completely aggravated by the fact she failed to introduce...wait what? "I was hoping Mags will introduce herself, actually," she chuckled, it was only a Pygmy Puff, a pet she adored. No messing with it, tsk, tsk. "The only one not named after a plant, as her name is Magenta," and she called her Mags. The bright pink Puff bounced a little as it realized it'd become the center of attention.
Since her eyes were on the bright pink Puff next to her, she failed to notice Elliot's look out the window. But the first year GASPED as soon as she heard Elliot's words. Blink. "I didn't mean it like that." Gross. Boys. Like that. No. "It doesn't hurt to keep friends in high places, you know?" Hence the excitement of meeting someone so polite and agreeable... that could stand up to her. And he was tall. Always a plus. "I'll introduce you, yes." Whenever.
Haha. No. Lottie leaned against her seat and made a dismissal motion with her hand, "I'm not speaking of boys...," didn't interest her. Not in the way Elliot was suggesting them, though...
Then she BEAMED. "As soon as I get my hands on quill and parchment... I'll write to her." Promise. ^^
Sierra had been sitting in the prefects compartment long enough. Strange things were happening there. Very strange things. So she found herself moving down the train and back into the crowded corridors. She wasn't a very sociable person, so she wasn't really looking for somebody to sit and talk with. Maybe she'd luck out, though, and find an empty compartment.
Peering into the window of a compartment she'd stopped at, she saw that nobody was inside. PERFECT. Sliding open the door, she stepped inside and closed the door behind her. It was only when she turned around that she saw somebody sitting there. "Oh," she said, a little surprised. "I...thought this one was empty."
As much fun as hanging out by the food trolley was, Garrett knew that he should probably be finding a compartment and taking a nap before he got to the school. It just seemed impossible to do, what with all the excitement and older students. This wasn't just Diagon Alley, where everybody could talk about magic and the wizarding world at leisure; this was the Hogwarts Express, where everyone on board was going to Hogwarts.
He continued peeking through the windows of different compartments, looking for... something. Maybe it was an unoccupied window seat, or maybe it was a person or two who looked quiet. He didn't know. He was just looking for something.

Sierra had no idea what to say to the girl she'd burst in on. She'd already mumbled something about not realizing this compartment was taken, so..what else was there? She reached behind her and grabbed the latch that opened the compartment. A second later, she swung open the door just in time to back right into some kid wandering down the corridor.
"Watch where you're going," she said, although not quite in a snappy mood. She eyed his uniforms, looking for any sign of the house he was sorted in, but a colorless tie showed her he was a first year. "Ahh, a first year," she said. "Well, welcome to Hogwarts then. Or, the trip there." It was the least she could say.
Oh. No. She didn't say she was pureblood. She didn't correct Elliot either. However, it just hit her. It wasn't her last name the one Merlin could've known, and a small frown appeared on her face.

Haha. No. Lottie leaned against her seat and made a dismissal motion with her hand, "I'm not speaking of boys...," didn't interest her. Not in the way Elliot was suggesting them, though...
Then she BEAMED. "As soon as I get my hands on quill and parchment... I'll write to her." Promise. ^^
Elliot cracked up in laughter..."Really? How odd, little Lotus. What are your parents' name?" she asked, a little curious...there were only so many plants that could be transformed into names...or so she thought.
Elliot smirked at the puffball thing. "Hi Mags...nice to make your acquaintance..." she said with a little chuckle. She didn't know if puffs were particularly friendly...so she didn't know whether she could pet him or not..
Hmmm.."Wise words, my friend. ALWAYS have friends in high places..." and then, as an added thought, she said, "And low places. Remember the low places, too, Lottie." It was something her father often said. Have friends higher than you, have friends lower...uh huh...
And good. She merely nodded, though, her mind trickling to thoughts of her sister...

"No, you don't have to lie." Abby shrugged and settled more comfortable in her seat. Heh. This was going to be long ride.
Singing and DANCING!? And before Abby could protest, the girl had started to sing.
.....Abby stared. Oh, wow. She had no idea that people could be so bad at singing. And, what on earth was she singing? Bad song, bad voice. Abby covered her eyes as her eyes shifted towards the window again. She was sure her ears were bleeding.
"YOU GOTTA STOP." So, girl. Singing badly wasn't really making Abby smile. If it wasn't obvious already.
And.. the annoying little girl was speaking to her again. Abby sighed and listened to the girl say that she knew where Chace was. Yeah, right. "Yeah.. No. That's not going to work. You're going to have to do better than that, girly."
Well that was a relief because she didn't want to have to stand there and lie to her...though technically that was what she was doing because the girl was pretty, she just wouldn't tell her that because her head might swell after that then there'd hardly be anywhere for them to stay in the car.
She thought for sure her idea would have worked until she saw that her expression didn't budge even slightly. This nearly made Lex scowl but then she saw great opportunity.
She shrugged non-chalantly. "Fine, I guess he can just stay with that girly he was talking to when I passed him on the way up." Her eyes drifted to the girl for a moment as she tried not to smile out of fear that she would have blown her story. "They seemed kinda gross too; just saying." She was pretty sure this wouldn't make her smile but it was fun messing with older kids and she couldn't resist.

Hasty would smile. She would remove the abnormally large stick up her posterior region. And she would not make this train ride a complete drag for everyone with her rotten mood.
Hm. Bribery was an interesting tact, especially since it had worked so well on Lex back at the station. Still, Genevieve wasn't sure, but she thought bringing up the boyfriend was exactly the opposite way to cheer Hasty up. Ick, though. She could appreciate Lex's disgust.
"Let me try." She stood and gestured for Lex to hop up on the seat... and NOT to step on the big old cat. "M'lady. Can I have this dance?" Genevieve bowed low and offered a hand to Lex. They were going to waltz on the seats. Genevieve may have hated her debutante days with a burning passion, but she did know how to dance.
When she heard Genevieve say she would try Lex figured her turn had passed. Hmm...if Genevieve didn't get it this turn then she would just have to try harder next time.
She gave the girl a puzzled look when she gestured for her to hop unto the seat but she didn't question it much because she had already determined that this one had a brain. She hopped up, nearly trampling on Mr. Fat Cat but luckily she missed. Everything became clear when the girl asked for a dance then offered her her hand.
This wouldn't turn out well...Lex and dancing existed on two separate sides of the globe for very obvious reasons but this was all in the name of fun and the point was to get the girl to laugh so she happily took her hand. Merlin, if I have to fall then she at least has to laugh afterwards!

Abby sighed. "I just tried, alright? That should count for something." She said as she ran a hand through her long dark hair. Abby did NOT smile unless she was happy and right now.. she was probably the unhappiest person on the planet.
Before she could say anything else, Abby watched Genie ask the rude little girl for a dance.. A DANCE!? In this crowded compartment?
"Okay, look. There's no place here for you to show off your dancing abilities." Abby shifted to the corner, just in case. She didn't want people falling on top of her or something.
And.. Abby turned toward the little girl again. Seriously? Was she just suggesting that Chace was cheating on her? Oh gosh. "If you're trying to rattle me, you should try a lot harder. I never get cheated on. NEVER." Because she was Abigail Hastings.
