Merlin... that had felt good. The slight sting in his hand was of no concern as he pushed Benjy back toward his seat. "You're a right... UGH. I can't even SAY it. What have you been telling that awful Lex girl about me? Lotus says you have been very vocal as to why you're agitated with me... and well I feel like YOU SHOULD HAVE COME TO ME with any problem you may have." And then his temper stopped boiling over...

Flopping back onto his seat he stared out the window, jaw set as well. "We're family, Benjamin Romulus. No one else should be involved in our issues but us. Despite my disinterest in the family business... it is important that we not besmirch the name or some load of waffle like that. Isn't that what Mum tells us every term?"

And his mind was back to Lottie and that awful Lex girl... And he ground his teeth together angrily.

And then he heard the voice. His eyes snapped open and he casually placed Sophocles on the seat next to him. Turning his head to look at his COUSIN he narrowed his eyes and scowled. A SCOWL was not a face one saw on an Ogden often.

"You mean you ACTUALLY want to be seen with me? Seems the sound of even my name irritates you according to others." His typically mellow voice had risen an octave or two as he spoke...

And then without warning he rose from his seat and within two strides he closed the distance between he and his cousin and swung his fist hard at his jaw.

He deserved IT!

Tucker didn't really remember his first train ride to school - he'd fallen asleep as soon as he found a spot. He may have been seated with people, he might not have been - he really had no clue. But this time, he wanted to SOCIALIZE. Meet people. Get out in the community. All that fun stuff.

As he wandered the corridors, he found himself going back and forth, up and down the train. Hmm, he had to make a good decision here. His social reputation could be at stake! He found a nearby compartment with two guys in it, and he decided this would be a good starting point. They looked to be about his age! He slid open the door and just as he was about to say hello...

The one dude punched the other one.

BLINK.

Tucker stood there, unsure of what to do exactly. "I...umm...sorry," he mumbled, fumbling behind him for the door handle.

Wrong decision INDEED.

Eliza'd been sort of just bumbling around the corridor of the train, peeking around compartments trying to decide where to sit, when she passed the window to a compartment containing two boys who looked to be about her age. She considered their faces momentarily, Hmm, I don't think I know either of-- but her thought was cut short as the one boy stood and PUNCHED the other boy right in the jaw. MERLIN!!! What the?!?! She forgot her manners in that instant, and the fact that she mostly kept to herself, and flung open the compartment door. "What in the blazes is going on here?!" she asked loudly with worry. She turned to the boy whom she was assuming was the victim and assessed his face. "Are you okay?" she asked, softer this time, and shot a confused and defensive look over to the aggressor.

Benjy stood his ground, his eyes staring at his cousin, waiting for an explanation. Garrick's push only served to rock him back on his heels, and he took a step back for balance. He was reassured the maintained distance, however, and his hand loosened slightly by his side.

A frown set in a Benjy's face. He wasn't sure he even knew a Lex. "I haven't the foggiest what you're talking about," Benjamin replied, frown now turning to a look of confusement. And as for a Lotus...why was Garrick talking to a flower and calling it by name?

"I met an Alex-aaa earlier, whilst Mum was bestowing cookies and goodness knows what else on you, but I haven't been 'very vocal', as you liked to put it." He folded his arms across his chest. "She mentioned a 'Garrick', I pondered whether it was you." Okay, so maybe he'd been a bit moody about his mother and the fact he'd fallen off his skateboard, but he wouldn't exactly call it agitated. "Most of the conversation was about deceased chocolate frogs..."

He shook his head lightly. Clearly, it was just one of those days.

Benjy took Garrick's cue, and sat back down, though gritted his teeth once more as his cousin used his middle name. That meant Garrick still meant business.

Serious business.

And if he wasn't careful, another punch could soon be heading his way. "I didn't besmirch the family name. She didn't even know Ogden was a brand of firewhiskey. Nor I did I mention anything about you being my cousin."

Was Garrick happy now? GAH.


At the sound of another boy's voice, Benjy turned and did what he did best: scowled. Couldn't the guy see that there wasn't something going on here?

And then a girl appeared too. "Fine," he replied, forcing a smile. "Nothing to worry about." Just a simple disagreement between two guys, easiest solved with a punch.

Hopefully.

Garrick was still glowering, which was not something he was used to... And Benjamin's further comments only made it worse. "So... what you're saying is you don't want anyone to know you're my cousin? Yeah... alright. That makes matters BETTER." Sarcasm. He had it.

And Sweet Mother of Merlin... People had seen that?

Garrick's cheeks flushed beetroot red as he noticed the boy first. "Oh.. I-i-i Yes, yes. Everything is fine. No worries. Please, come in and have a seat if you wish. Just a little... thing. Done and over with now." His famous Ogden smile clicked into place as he scooped Sophocles up and put him in his lap to clear a spot.

... And that girl was loud. He didn't like loud people. He merely smiled at her and shook his head. "It's fine. Everything is fine. No worries, see? Have a seat if you please."

He might have aimed a kick at Benjy's shin as he was moving over... he needed to be nice to people...

Benjamin bent over, resting his elbows on his thighs and putting his head in his hands. He pulled on his hair slightly, frustrated. "Do you honestly believe that?" Benjamin looked at his cousin in disbelief. "After all these years, I would suddenly decide to disown you?" He almost spat it out, an unusual acidity in his voice sparked by Garrick's sarcasm. "Gee, thanks for taking my side." He shook his head, muttering under his breath. "Gah. Jumping to conclusions because of something a flower said..."

Garrick was his best friend. Was.

And there was Garrick's charm kicking in. Literally, apparently, as a shoe made contact with Benjy's shin. He tried to hide resulting the grimace, but was incredibly close to walking out on everyone right now. It'd been a while since he'd felt this annoyed.

Blood was cursing through his veins.

And if Garrick kept this up, then Benjy would be the one needing something to vent on. With a tight smile at the others in the compartment, he busied himself with the licorice wand from behind his ear.

Slow nibbles. Slow small nibbles.

Realizing she'd just completely invaded someone's personal space, Eliza stepped back and stuck her hands to her sides hard. What just came over me? she wondered. She was about to apologize to the boy she'd just hovered over, when he replied to her gruffly. Oh? She did not appreciate that tone. Well, he did smile so...maybe he's just in a mood. I mean I guess if I were getting in fights I'd have to be in some type of mood too, so... She forced a small smile back at him.

And then the boy who'd done the punching spoke and somehow sounded a little nicer than this other boy. Funny, usually that's the other way around, right? Maybe this boy deserved to be hit? she thought as she listened and smiled another small smile to the boy who'd invited her to sit. No Eliza, that's not true. People don't deserve to just get hit in the face at random. Sheesh!

She gave the boy next to her a quick uncomfortable glance from the corner of her eye. She was pretty sure he felt as awkward as she did right now. Except maybe not, since he didn't go all maternal on them, trying to see to their injuries or anything like I sort of did. She sighed. Now what was she to do? Sit where she was so clearly unwanted by the punchee? Or sit and be polite and try to smooth this over as possibly only desired via obligatory feelings by the puncher? She neither sat nor removed herself, but instead let some disjointed words fall out of her mouth. Graceful.

"I, uh....sorry. I just, well I saw...Nevermind. You're okay then?" she said looking at the boy who'd been hit. "That's good...and you," nodding to the one who'd asked her and the other bystander to sit, "You're um, done with the hitting then?" She cocked her head a little sideways, still trying to get a read on the whole thing, and remembered to compose herself a bit more. "Thank you for asking me to sit," she added with one of her wide smiles. She really had no problem starting over and getting friendly, but she didn't want to stick around if the other boy wished her to leave. "But I don't want to be a bother..." she noted, eying the blonde with the shaggy hair, who was now eating licorice somewhat...slowly.

And just in the spirit of...good spirits, she aimed both of her thumbs towards herself and motioned with a shrug and a smile, "Eliza, by the way."

"Ha, no... no, I don't think we can actually sit on our brooms and cheer back, but you can imagine I am? I'm always cheering in my head over something or other." Except for the past month or so. The cheering had gone awfully quiet for a while now.

Mo pulled stupid faces for Dora, in case she wanted to try out taking some pictures as well. Or should he sit still and let her figure out the apertures and lens? He tried out both before falling over sideways on the seat and just looking at her.

Why had he brought up Alice anyway? "A few, from when I first went to stay with Vivi and Selina. Before..." Dora knew before what, since Alice had gone to stay with her and all. "She owled it to me for my birthday. Did she show you her crown I made? Did you help eat it?"

Ronnie's cat Oliver sat on top of her luggage, watching as the students walked past the door carrying all their suitcases and whatnot. All of a sudden, a boy stopped in front of the door and quietly made his way inside and sat down. Oliver hopped from the luggage to the seat across from it and trotted up to the boy and began to sniff him.

SNIFF SNIFF SNIFF.

He gave a little meow and licked the boy's hand. The meow caused Ronnie to open her eyes. "You okay Oliv-" she began, but then stopped and jumped at the sight of Wade. "Wade!" she squeaked. "I-I'm sorry. I k-kinda dozed off there..." she said with a small laugh, her cheeks turning red. How embarrassing.. Oh merlin, how long had he been sitting there?! She hoped he hadn't been there waiting for her to wake up too long...

SPOILER!!: tralalala

The boy began making himself comfortable even before the Lion gril said he could stay. After all, it wasn't her compartment, and he was just sitting, and all that. He even went so far as to open his backpack, and pull out a piece of candy.

And at her Comment about Toad he narrowed his eyes at the girl"He's not a frog, he's a toad. And that cat isn't eating him" Because he was his. And a pet, and he had paid good money for him. He picked up the bumpy little guy and sat him on the seat beside him, away from that dumb cat.

When the blonde girl entered, he did shift a little uncomfortably, and placed a hand on top of Toad, so he wouldn't try to jump at her again. But then she started talking about owl poo, and he just couldn't help but lauge once more at the thing he had seen earlier. "I think... the luggage compartment should be off limits."

Was she worried or something? He was happy and safe and FOUND, what did it matter what he was doing as long as it wasn't running away or being trampled? Aidan took her question very seriously and looked from the kneazle to its owner, then his gaze dropped to her legs. "Maybe he's just comfortable. I've got a bigger lap." Her legs were skinny and tiny while his were...bigger merely because he was a boy.

'Does it fancy the inside of a kneazle's stomach?' Aidan laughed and gave Felix a look. He was still sleeping as far as the boy could tell. "Maybe you should put it away somewhere, yeah?" he asked of Kaiden. Though, it really wasn't a question. He had no doubt Felix would attack that and be done with it before they even noticed.

Then Mika appeared, asking if she could join them and then not bothering to wait for an answer. ...Sure she could join, he supposed. Unless Lex wanted her out. Because, frankly, Lex's opinion was the only one he cared about in their current company.

She talked and talked and talked an awful lot, so Aidan just tuned her out, reaffirming his hold on Felix while still stroking him. He only caught the last line about owl poo. "Did you clean yourself?" Why she even paraded that little fact around was beyond him.

She was beginning to think he might have been hard of hearing or something. Kneazles were certainly not some cat version of mutts, they were a whole specie to themselves and, if he didn't know, Felix was offended...or...er...he would be if he hadn't dozed off. Still. Gave Kaiden no right to say that.

"Oh?" Lex looked down at her legs too. She gave them a long look before looking over at his and the sleeping kneazle. "I guess you have a point there..." She'd actually never thought of it that way before. How curious.

"Right, toad, same thing. You should listen to Aidan." He should. The toad was safer away than right there. She saw him move it to the further side. Pffft. Like that would make a difference. "And what do you mean he wouldn't get eaten? Do you think I'd walk all the way down these corridors looking for him if I wasn't concerned for the safety of anything that could fall into the 'prey' category?" Felix was a big boy kneazle, he could take care of himself plus he apparently had Aidan. The other animals...not so much.

She watched Kaiden getting all comfy and was set to say something else to Aidan when she saw him pull out candy. Her candy bag was left down in the other compartment with Lottie. "If you're staying then you have to share with us." Yes us, because Aidan might have wanted candy too?

A second later the door flew open again and there was a smiling Mika that turned quickly into a ranting one. Owl poop? Pranks? "Sure, sounds fun! You need help getting cleaned up first?" You know, before you plop down in the compartment smelling like poop.

Mika couldn't stop from eying Kaiden as he laughed. THIS was not funny. Sure to other people it might be but birds were evil and she was going to torment whoever had don that...not the bird, they were innocent.

"Um...yeah I did clean myself" she laughed, "I was thinking of maybe possibly enacting revenge on said owls owner...ya know hex the cage so that when they tough it their hair turns neon green or something." She'd come up with something.

"Thanks Lex," she smiled as the girl said she could sit with them. "I used some good smelling stinky stuff my mum got me....lavender stuff." she shrugged. Yes it was perfume but she didn't want to talk about it. It was girly. And girly was nothing like her. Nothing at all like her.

She ran her hand through her hair and bit her lip. "So did you have good summers?" she asked kindly as she took a seat as far away from Kaiden and the toad as she could. It was then that she noticed the comment about the luggage compartment. "I yeah it should be off limits to me atleast. Whenever I go in there bad things happen like the train nearly derailing."

"That is exactly why I'm here," he responded as he got more comfortable in the seat, removing one arm from the back of his head to put it around the blonde beside him. "Comfy indeed," Ryan grinned from ear to ear as he looked her over. Incredible how just a year ago, he never would have seen her in the same light. But now...so much was different, in a good way.

Looking over the top of Minnie's head, he watched the greenery whizz pass them, the floor below his trainers shaking as the train rattled on. For an instant, he wondered where Chris was--he had barely any contact with him all summer and upon thinking this, Ryan frowned for a second, wondering whether his best friend was okay. He knew about Australia, of course, but he felt rather bad for not speaking to him all summer. Well, he could hardly blame himself as he had been enjoying as much time as he could with the beautiful girl beside him. He liked to think of it as making up for lost time.

Brought back to the present by Minnie's response, Ryan blinked and resumed his grin. "Would you really?" he asked her as a chuckle escaped his lips. He doubted a beach would make any difference to him going to classes...unless they were studying the water on the beach or something. But even then, he might just take the time to nap. "I still wouldn't go to class."

Then, looking over at her, he nudged her slightly and said, "We have matching tans."

It hadn't been until Wade was already seated when he had a funny feeling. That feeling of being watched. He turned his head towards the window of the door that he had came from, in case there was someone outside. But he stopped shortly of a cat that was now sitting next to him. Hmm. He was surprised that he didn't see him.

Wade looked at the cat. Then back at the sleeping Ronnie. Back to the cat. Back to Ronnie. Now looking back at the cat again. The now sniffing cat of Ronnie's. He kept his voice a low volume, "Hello there." He held his hand out as if to pet him. "How are ya?" He usually talked to animals and pets like they were a regular person, nothing new there.

The cat then made a cute mew, before licking his hand. "You're hungry aren't you?" Wade softly laughed before he turned to Ronnie's now awakened voice.

"Morning, Ronnie." He grinned at her. She had looked so peaceful while asleep. "Did you have a good nap?" He was facing her now whilst stroking the cat. "So, what's his name?"

She laughed and gave a small nod. "Yeah...even though it wasn't very long." she said, sitting up in her seat. She yawned and stretched. She'd get back to sleeping tonight in the dorm. Ahh, she couldn't wait to be back in her warm, cozy bed!

"His name is Oliver." she replied, smiling brightly at the cat who was now curled up in Wade's lap, purring. "He sure likes you." she said, chuckling.

"I can imagine you cheering for us. You don't have to, just know I'm always cheering on our house and my friends." Cause that's just what Dora did on match days, supported them and now she also stared and stuff.

Dora actually DID plan on taking pictures of him, and if he wanted proof of how silly he could be then she was happy to oblige, snapping a few of them, a few of all his poses even his sideways position. "I saw it, but I didn't eat it." She turned the camera on herself and snapped some silly pictures. "No one's eaten it so far as I know." Because of reasons that were Alice's alone. And she understood them only completely, because Dora just got all things that were Alice being her best friend and all.

"I bet," She paused, and passed the camera back over to him, her gaze turning thoughtful. The fourth year was having a serious internal battle with what she wanted to say to him about things. Mostly she just had questions that she was sure others wouldn't want her to ask. So she just went for... well she hoped it was a safe thing to say. "I bet that she'd still be friends with you if you wanted. I mean like hang out and stuff. You don't have to not I don't think, and even if rules say so just ignore them."

Dora shrugged and kept looking at him. She was still trying to understand this whole... thing. And him right this moment. He was usually Hufflepuff happy all the times she'd seen him, but now he was all... something. She didn't know what it was. Not Mo she supposed.

"You, my dear Dora, are a true Ravenclaw at heart," Mo pointed a finger at Dora and wiggled it in her direction. She got house spirit. She got house pride, even. He grinned slightly, then smushed his face against the seat at her scrutiny. He liked being behind the lens rather than being captured forever on film.

He stayed like that, nose pressed against the seat, as Dora spoke about Alice. On the one hand, her words were unnecessary. They were exactly what Alice had said, and there was no need for Dora to just repeat things. On the other hand... part of him had trouble believing it, and it was a relief to hear Dora assure him.

He sat up, pulling the camera into his lap and just holding it there. "Everyone knows, d'you think? Already? It only just happened, and already..." He sort of loathed how stupid and pathetic he sounded at the moment, so Mo forced out that odd, tight smile and pretended everything was fine. "I know we're still friends, though. We were better as friends, and now she can be... with who she wants. Friends want what's best for each other, you know? But I do wish she'd eaten the crown. It's a shame, since it was for her birthday and everything. You suppose it's gone all stale and inedible?" Priorities. Candy over feelings.

"Duh." She was grinning and possibly a bit smug about it too. "I'm also a good friend." And that wasn't smugness, that was just a fact. Isidora was a good friend to those she cared about. Everyone else was just around for entertainment and experimental purposes.

He was kinda hard to watch properly with him positioned like that, but she never did stop watching him even as he moved to sit up proper. "Everyone will know soon. It's Hogwarts." Shrug. "But you can't lump me with everyone cause I'm the best friend and by default know things before everyone." Truth. She almost shrugged again but he kept speaking and Dora became distracted and confused by other thoughts. Her brow knitted together. He was wrong, but she wasn't gonna say so. "Maybe she's not eaten it because she wants to save it." She supplied helpfully. Quietly.

She was probably saying too much.

"Duh," Mo agreed with a brighter smile and a head tilt as he regarded her. For all that Dora was here grudgingly, she was at least very good company and saying things that were helpful. He removed the cap from his camera and took another picture of her.

"I'm not lumping. No lumping happening here," Mo stretched out one leg and nudged at Dora's knee with his foot. He was just asking questions, really, although it was safe to assume that if Dora knew Alice was going to break it off with him, than Alice had been intending to do it all along. Not that he was thinking about that. He was thinking about... jelly slugs.

"Saving it is okay. I made her other jelly slug jewelry too, y'know? A bracelet and things." Could they stop talking about Alice now? "You didn't tell me how your birthday went. Lots of presents?"

Kaiden was fed up with that stupid cat. It was dumb, and he didn’t want that thing anywhere near Toad. Giving the girl a hard look, he said “Fine.” Reluctantly, and somewhat angrily, he rummaged around in his bag pulling a HUGE bag of candy out, so he could get to Toad’s cage at the bottom of his bag. As soon as the amphibian saw the cage, he jumped to the floor. “Hey, get back here.” He said scooping him up quickly and depositing him into the cage. “And its not my fault.” He told the critter. “Its hers.” He said pointing to Alexa.

Oh, and she was demanding candy now too? “Sure, help yourself.” He said throwing a chocolate frog at her. They could eat his candy, but it was at their own risk. He wasn’t going to tell them about the Ton-tongue toffees, or the canary creams, or the hiccup sweets, or the skiving snack box candies, or any of prank candies that were in the bag. Nope, even if he got them to try on himself. But if they were going to demand his candy, it would be their problem if they got one.

“Good smelling stinking stuff? that’s an oxymoron.” Seriously. Did it smell good or not? He leaned forward slightly trying to see if he could smell the stuff, but he couldn’t smell anything odd. “What do you mean train derailing? Its not going to do that is it?”

Walking down the corridor further on still looking into the compartments as she went. She spotted another girl looking for a compartment, "You looking for one too? I think this one's empty." Peering in she only saw a book on the seat. Shrugging she pushed it open "I was hoping for a mostly empty compartment myself, but I think this is the last one. Want to join me?" Blinking at the girl, she shrugged and walked in dropping onto one of the seats.

If she joined Zoe, she wouldn't mind, if not oh well, at least she tried being nice. Points to her right? Auntie and mum couldn't say she was always so unpeoplepersonlike. Should she introduce herself? Well, the girl might not even join her, so maybe she should just wait and see. Pulling her bag off her shoulder she put it on top of the book on the seat beside her.

"Aww.. That's so nice. You are really close with your brothers, huh? I guess brothers can be protective sometimes. But all I have is a sister. I am happy that I have her. People think we don't get along much because we argue a lot. But at the end of the day, Amara is my best friend. We know each other so well you know." She said, smiling at her sister. She knew Amara would not like talking about this. Nevertheless, she would express her feelings.

"So which house do you think you'll be in?" Zyanya asked to Fro.

"It's alright. Take your time and make yourself comfortable." Zyanya said to Natasha, smiling. She looked at Rush and wondered how the cat didn't frighten Nats. It sure did scare her. But then it was probably because of Amara's little adventures with Rush where Zyanya would be the scapegoat.

"Umm..let me think.." Zyanya said to herself. How long was the journey? She remembered faintly about mom saying something. "I don't know exactly but I think it might take some eight to ten hours. But I am completely sure." She said to her friend.

"Oh okay, plenty of time for us to get to know each other then." Natasha stated. "Would he let me pet him?" Natasha looked over at Zyanya's cat. Just as she asked, her little cat poked his head out of her robes. Natasha poked her head back, hiding her from the view of the other cat.

Wade only chuckled a little more as she got comfortable again. Hmm, so the cat's name was Oliver. "Yeah? That's such a cute name." Wade looked back down at Oliver who had just jumped into his lap all curled. "You really like me, don't you Oliver?" He continued rubbing the top of his rub as he purred. Cute thing, reminded him of the few strays he would see and play with as a kid. "Aside from my owl, I only have two dogs, Lulu and Mona back at home."

And to think it used to be the badge her own daughter, Sierra, had. My, that would've been a lot to process after something like that happened. But right now, it was go time and she had her first Prefect-y duty running at the moment. Besides having to patrol boring compartments with boring people sucked into their boring conversations, she got to do this and it was something way better than watching over students like they needed baby sitters.

Besides, having to chase someone who might've dropped one of their belongings meant running and doing something good. Once Kat had returned the necklace to the girl, she felt a little bit good about herself in the inside. Dunno, but it might've been something Puffer... but whatever.

"You're welcome. I saw it just outside the compartment you came from," Kat said and nodded. She even managed a smile for the younger girl. But something told Kat that this one was an unfamiliar face. Possibly a new student, hmm? "I take you're new to Hogwarts." Based on the obvious, duh. Even Kat didn't know her.

Christina often met the prefects; first was Daichi, the Slytherin male then Ira, the Gryffindor female one. Now she met the other female prefect from Slytherin (she recognized from her green badge and as a daughter of Slytherin alumna, of course she knew that green was Slytherin color) who found her necklace. Maybe she thought she was kinda ridiculous because candy cane necklace seemed very childish for a fourteen-year-old girl like her. Hey, it was a present from her favorite cousin and she had promised that she would keep it. So, she was very thankful to the prefect girl.

I take you're new to Hogwarts.

Oh, she did recognize her that she's new here. Yeah, she's right. Was her face just unfamiliar around here or she really realized that she was new. Maybe this prefect girl knew almost all of the students in Hogwarts. Awesome. Was it one of the perks being a student leader? Maybe yes. "Yes, I am." she answered. "I'm gonna started my fourth year here." Please never ask why did she move from her old school to here because she's kinda bored with that question. Seriously.

Zyanya very fond of Amara, he knew it, but it seems they are not compact, "Well, actually better have a brother, I sometimes do not like to be alone, so they are always with me," she said, to grasp the hand belongs Zyanya, "I actually want to go in Gryffindor house , one of my favorite house than Slytherin, "she added. "Mother is a Gryffindor student, while Father is a Slytherin, how about you?" said Aphrodite to Zyanya. Instantly the train they're riding slowed down and Aphrodite realize that soon they would arrive at Hogsmeade Station.

Amara looked as the conversation moved on with Zyanya and Natasha increasing their interaction. Good for them. I can't be there all the time introducing people. She nodded at Fro's statement of being careful and returned her wink back. Maybe the girl could assist her in her little adventures. Shusssh!

And Nats wasn't afraid of Rush. Really?

She tapped her cat. "Say what, Rush?" she said, "That girl is not afraid of you, she thinks you're funny" She pointed at Nats. "Go and scratch her too, huh?" she said, winking at Natasha. Rush stirred and looked at her. "Oh..no..no.." she warned, pulling him towards her. "You're not grabbing the opportunity, little devil" And she smiled. Her cat was hyper-active at attack times. "It was a statement, no commitment. OKAY?" and continued to sort of cuddle him.

To Fro's question, "Slytherin" she answered promptly with a smirk. She was going to be at the wonderful house of the school. Cool people. Humour me, I'm cool.

"Hey, it's MY cat!" she said, as Nats acknowledged Rush to Zyanya. "Seriously, they both hate each other" she commented, looking between Rush to Zyanya. "Isn't it little boy, ain't I right?" she asked Rush and he purred.

"See?" she said, grinning at Zyanya. Just be careful.

And the train slowed down. I think we're nearing. It gradually came to a halt.

"Come on everyone" she said, calling their attention. "School's here" she said, pointing at the window. Hogwarts was visible at a distance. Huge.
