| | Prefects' Compartment At the very front of the first passenger car, the prefects have their own compartment. It looks a little different in comparison to the others, allowing for a more open layout. The walls that separate the corridor from the compartments like the rest of the train do not apply here so anyone can walk about and talk to anyone freely. A wall with a door distinguishes this large open compartment from the rest of the normal compartments on the train.
If you are a prefect, this is the place for you to have your start-of-term student leader meeting, led by the Head Boy and Head Girl, and travel in in style. Don't get too comfortable though; remember that you still need to patrol the other cars on occasion, checking in on both your friends and new faces and making sure your peers in the back of the train haven't destroyed the place. If you are not a prefect, it is advised that you do not disturb those within this particular compartment unless you were personally invited or need immediate assistance. OOC: For a visual example of the layout of this compartment, think something along the lines of what was shown in the film versions of HBP and DH: Part 1.

He poked the older boy's shoulder and showed him the notebook. Jackson had left the door open because... well, he was the first one here. Plus, he liked the noise of the other students as they entered, hearing the last goodbye to their family before holiday, the excitement as friends were reunited... but it was the opposite that made Jackson turn quickly... He was being poked? Jackson whipped his head around from his view of the platform and saw a very young boy before him... In fact, Jackson could swear this was a first year by his size and unfamiliarity. The boy had a notebook up. Jackson was honestly a little surprised, but he didn't know this boy so manners up! Reading what the young boy had written, Jackson smiled at him. "Oh it's all good, my man! This is the Prefect Compartment, so if anything, this was the best place to go for assistance." Jackson stood and walked past the boy to lead him to the other compartments. "Now, you can find any compartment you'd like to sit in and sit there, but don't be afraid to switch if you want..." Jackson observed the boy a bit more, wondering why the boy wasn't (couldn't maybe?) speaking. He gave a warm smile and offered, "If you'd like, I can help you find a compartment? It's still pretty early."

Austin nodded. He tucked his notebook into a small duffle bag. He put the duffle bag around his shoulders and followed Jackson. So far so good. And he wasn't even at Hogwarts yet.

| Sassenach | RAVENPUFF | Sing me a song of a lass that is gone | bookDRAGON | #awkwardturtle<# Hanna had said goodbye to her parents, her badge proudly on her muggle clothes. It wouldn't be long until she changed into her robes, having passed through the muggle crowds. She gave all of her siblings, except Lena, a big hug. For Lena, she gave her a quick kiss on the forehead, helped her heave her trunk onto the train, and settled her in a compartment. But she wouldn't be sitting with her sister just yet, she was off to the PREFECTS COMPARTMENT.
She was ready. Her stomach had a soft fluttering of nerves, some in anticipation of ensuring Professor Stewart and Headmaster Trent trusted her, and some of wanting to help the first year students, not even only the Ravenclaws, have the best start to their magical education. But a lot of it was excitement.
She spotted Jackson heading away from the compartment with a new student. Being empty inside, she took a seat and looked out, settling whatever nerve she had.

| elephant-astic•wanderlust•stay in the ninedaaays the original Taco Belle•look at the flowers✿ Vita still wasn't exactly sure how to take her new prefect status, but the seventh year was pretty proud of herself for impressing someone enough to be trusted with the title. It helped that her friends had been so encouraging, that Mave had, that the Stemps had. It made her feel like no matter what, she had this. She could handle whatever they threw her way, scary first years and all.
Stepping into the prefects' compartment, the brunette offered the younger girl a smile and settled in her seat. She wouldn't be staying long, patrols and the need to sit with her boyfriend for at least a little while on her mind. For now, though, she was present and ready to meet the people she'd be working with this term. "Excited to be going back?"

| Dem Carters | even 🕊🕊 have pride | | Expecto PAWtronum 🐈 | U-NA-GI Well, if there were any questions about just exactly who was the Hufflepuff prefect, that question was now answered, as Sterling Archer Calrissian was making her way her way down the train corridor very loudly proclaiming, "Excuse me, excuse me, pardon me, PREFECT COMING THROUGH!" while maneuvering through the various Hogwartians both old and new. As if to punctuate the point, the her badge was pinned exactly where it belonged.
Reaching the prefect's compartment, Archer finally shut up and entered. "Hey, guys! Congrats!" Though, it was only herself, Vita and Hanna in there. Hmm. She'd thought she would be late.....

| Arts TRANSPONSTER! Eeeeeehhhhhhh.
Anna liked going to the Prefects' compartment because it was always an interesting start of term, what with the crazy arguments that seems to always arise. It was good entertainment indeed.
HOWEVER, this Gryffindor wasn't exactly pleased with her new badge. If ONLY she was as immature as, say, Zoryn Spinnet, she would have charmed it to say 'Captain' instead, but Anna wasn't anything like the former Gryffindor, so her badge still read 'Prefect', as it should.
Meh. Meeehhhhhhhhhhh.
And that Hufflepuff girl's proclamation of her own prefect status as she made her way to their compartment? It definitely made Anna facepalm and shake her head as she followed a few feet behind. Dear Merlin, she had a feeling her co-prefects this year would be a handful. And that was coming from someone who dealt with the rebellious Gryffindor team the previous year. Like. Brace yourselves, Hogwarts.
The Gryffindor heard Sterling congratulating the others and was glad she was still behind them and outside of the compartment, because she didn't feel like she should be congratulated. She even wondered if the others would realise she wasn't Captain anymore.
Her badge was pinned to her clothes, but she wasn't making a point of flashing it around because... well, because she'd rather still be Captain, hadn't that been made clear already!?
So without making a fuss, Anna slipped into the compartment, greeted the other girls with a small smile because she kind of had to and headed straight to a seat near the window.
Uuuuuuuuurgh. No big problems, please. Se didn't want to have to deal with prefect things this early in the term.

Here he was. His sixth year. He was ready to take on the term, but he wasn't so ready for this whole prefect thing. After starting from the back of the train he had finally gotten to the prefects compartment. merlin....
He figured he'd be the last one in the compartment, all because of that ridiculous boot he had to wear because of his parents. Rolling his eyes at the thought of his parents making him heal his broken ankle he realized he wasn't the last one in the compartment. He spotted Hanna, Vita, and Anna. He recognized the hufflepuff but couldn't quite place her name... wait wasn't it Archer? or was it Sterling? Ah he'd just stay silent.
Nodding his head at everyone he slipped in quietly, taking a seat near the door. Near the door so he could make a quick exit to take a nap before the forever long sorting and feast. He wasn't being that anti-social.

| lala yay cookies xD Shoe!Girl │ Rebel Ravie │ Confundus Queen │ RP Addict Yes, the menagerie was coming back to Hogwarts, or, at least, Stas was bringing them either way. Dobby had been with her at Hogwarts since first year, so he deserved to see it through just as much as she did, and then both Albus and Vasilisa had been babies at the castle so she figured they deserved it too. Especially since it was her final term. Seventh year, and weirdly her fourth term as prefect. Small animals as well as a bag that held certain important things accompanying her on her way to the prefect compartment as was her habit, she’d been wondering who would be in there with her. Namely, who was taking over Derf’s and Chloe’s badges since she knew she wasn’t. Plus, a lot of the others from last term had graduated too. Honestly, she wasn’t as disappointed by the head girl thing as she thought she would, but then she’d known most of Gryffindor was open for consideration since Professor Marchand’s leaving. Maybe it was part of that. She was perfectly fine keeping her original position. It was familiar.
But she was still curious, and she’d given everyone who had arrived in the compartment a smile as she found somewhere to settle her owl’s cage, Dobby perched on top as he’d been for most of the walk there. “Hi everyone!,” she said, digging into her bag (dislodging the puffskein ensconced inside just the tiniest bit) to pull out several little bags of cookies, before handing them out, one package to each of the other prefects. Someone had to continue the tradition, after all. Besides, aside from continuing Chloe’s tradition, she figured she was known by now for her baking so it worked.
Also, she didn’t think it was weird at all that Anna was wearing the twin of her own badge as opposed to her old captain badge.

| Zombie Apocalypse Team Leader ★ ★ in a crown of pepperoni and artisan cheese Aaron was running a little late, mainly because a very proud clan of Botros' had descended upon Platform 9 3/4; most of them just wanting to reassure him they were only an owl away if he needed anything this term. The pressure had already set in, that was true, but he felt steadier today. Better prepared.
After depositing his trunk and purchasing a snack from the food trolley (several chocolate frogs, for the cards, ahem, and some Bertie Bott's beans), Aaron walked the length of the train. His sister had mentioned that he would be expected to sit with the other Prefects, but.. Well. Maybe a quick check-in would be okay, but otherwise, he wanted to catch up with his friends. Say "hi" to Vivi, and maybe go hug Drewett. His Ravenclaw friend always looked like he needed hug or two.
... So, what was the protocol for the Prefect compartment? Should he knock first?
After a moment of staring at the door with indecision, and having to clench his fingers around the Prefect pin hidden in his jumper pocket (to insure he belonged here), the Hufflepuff quickly rapped his knuckles against the compartment door, before sliding it open. WITH CONFIDENCE!
.... And it didn't surprise Aaron that he appeared to be the last one to arrive. Oops. If he survived this term, he vowed to cut the farewells short for next time. "... I apologize for being late."...... Where did the cookies come from?

| Sassenach | RAVENPUFF | Sing me a song of a lass that is gone | bookDRAGON | #awkwardturtle<# Soon enough the compartment door slid open, bringing in one of the Slytherin prefects. Hanna smiled back at her and nodded. "I am, absolutely." She peered back out of the window again, tucking her hands slightly under her legs. "Are you? It's your last year, right?" That must be bittersweet.
The next prefect to join was Archer, who had set up the meeting in hopes to rebel against Scrimgeour's regime. Hanna thought about that meeting sometimes, and she smiled at the congratulations. "And to you too. Well, both of you."
Hanna looked up again as Anna headed in. Having expected to see the captain badge, she was surprised instead to see a Prefect one. Huh. "Hello," Hanna said awkwardly to the sixth year, returning her smile. She appeared to just want to look out the window. Well perhaps she saw it as a demotion.
Vita's Slytherin counterpart entered and Hanna offered him a smile. "Hi Patrick," she said. But another one that didn't appear to want to socialise.
Hanna felt relieved as Stasya entered. She who gave an air of approachability, as well as COOKIES. Hanna's eyes grew wide, realising that she was actually hungry. "Thanks Stas," she said, accepting them and feeling bad for not having anything to offer. "That's really nice of you!" She opened the packet and took a smell of the delicious baked goods. "Did you have a nice summer?"
The second Hufflepuff entered, and Hanna moved over slightly to make sure there was plenty of room. "Hey," Hanna greeted him as he walked in.
After looking back out the window she turned back around. "There's two female Gryffindor Prefects," she stated the obvious, and then smiled. "That's really cool." With a nod, she settled back into the chair.

| elephant-astic•wanderlust•stay in the ninedaaays the original Taco Belle•look at the flowers✿ If Hanna was nervous about being prefect, Vita couldn't tell, and she admired the younger girl's ability to appear so confident. It was heavy stuff, representing your house, looking after it. It made the badge feel heavier somehow, at least to her. Speaking of, Vita fished hers out of her coat pocket and fixed it to the collar so it could be seen. "I admit I missed the castle, but mostly because it allows me to see my friends every day." That was a luxury, honestly. "The whole graduating thing hasn't really sunk in just yet, so that I'm not thinking too much about that part." Sterling was an enthusiastic one, wasn't she? Vita offered a smile and a polite, "To you, too." She was another girl who seemed confident in her appointment. The brunette wondered if such a thing could be learned.
Seeing the former captains in prefect badges was strange, admittedly, but Vita didn't dare ask about the switch. Anna didn't look particularly eager to talk in general and she didn't want to start out on the wrong foot with Patrick knowing they'd be working closely together all term. Wiser to swallow her curiosity for now. "Is your foot alright?" The seventh year looked over the boot her fellow snake was wearing and then her gaze shifted to his face. She wondered why he hadn't been able to fix it magically, the boot looking more like a way to torture than heal. It seemed heavy and uncomfortable, not something she'd ever want to have to wear, especially when you'd need to be patrolling.
Cookies? "That was nice of you. Thanks." Vita accepted the bag from Stasya and looked it over. She didn't have any allergies or anything, but after the whole Maxton being cloned incident, she was a bit wary of accepting anything she didn't see made right in front of her. Stasya didn't seem the type to mess with anyone, though. She'd just be waiting to dig in until she saw someone else have a cookie. Hanna seemed about ready to do so any minute now. "Don't worry, you didn't miss anything. We're all just getting settled," The slytherin offered as the younger Hufflepuff joined the group. It looked like most everyone was in attendance now, so hopefully they'd be having their little meeting and she'd be able to go on her way. She was feeling a bit antsy with so many people around now.

Patrick looked around propping his good foot on top of the booted one. He was following the room back and forth as people were catching up. Spotting Anna he smiled. “How was the rest of your summer Anna?” he asked quietly since they had met up shortly after getting their new badges. It felt weird to think he was Prefect Dooley not Captain. But he’d gotten over that quickly.
He turned to hear Vita ask about his foot. ”Oh, yeah I broke it playing baseball this summer. My parents believe in the theory that muggle injuries should be treated in muggle ways. So here I am with my boot for the foreseeable future.” He shrugged while he smiled. Although it was a nuisance he had grown mostly used to it. Still managed to bump into things here and there.
His eyes quickly snapped over to Stasya, how had he missed cookies. He smiled at her and grabbed one, “thanks Stasya. These look yummy.” he watched his fellow Prefect Vita look it over before eating it. He took a bite figuring even if it was laced with love potion he would at least have a fun train ride. Shrugging he kept chewing, “really yummy”

Ava Clarke Accidents & Catastrophes | Mention Hanna, but saying hii to everyone
How long had he been gone?? Jackson had taken a last look to make sure Austin seemed to be okay over there in that obnoxiously silent compartment, but when he turned back to the Prefect Compartment, it was packed! Jackson's face broke into a smile as he saw his fellow Prefects. His eyes first fell on Hanna, his fellow Ravenclaw. "Hey Hanna!" he greeted her before looking on at the others here. Some he knew more than others from patrols and whatnot, but it was getting busy in here. "Hey everyone!" he greeted the rest of the compartment as a whole. An "Ooh!" escaped him when his eyes fell on the bag of cookies. Not that they would stop him from going to the trolley though.
