Default Middle Cars


If you suffer from FOMO or just want to be in the involved with everything, then the middle passenger cars of the train are for you. Just like the other cars, a long corridor provides access to the many compartments, each labelled with a letter, available for you and your friends to hunker down in until the train has come to a complete stop. Cushioned seats and large windows, allowing perfect views of the British scenery on your journey, await.

Well, what are you waiting for? Slide open a compartment door and make yourself at home. Place any of your belongings not in the luggage car on the racks above you. Chat with your friends about what you did this summer, enjoy munching on the snacks you bought from the trolley lady, get ahead of the game by reading your textbooks, or take a long nap as the train travels over numerous hills and mountainsides. Whatever you do, exhibit your best behaviour -- the prefects will be regularly patrolling the corridors and poking their heads inside your compartment to make sure you are doing so.

Choosing a car was perhaps the most important decision Nina Castillo would have to make today. Though, maybe there were other decisions that would only become more apparent later in the day. She didn't actually know how the first day of Fall Term went, having only transferred to the school well towards the end of the last school year. None of this, however, changed her perspective. Choosing a place to sit was a highly important decision, which would more than likely impact the rest of her day.

The first few cars were appealing choices. She didn't want to venture too far down the train and risk sitting next to no-good-nobodies who would likely cause trouble and try to inflict some sort of cruel, teenage peer pressure on her impressionable (yet unyielding) mind. The issue with the first carts, however, was the possibility of sitting with first years who were too nervous to look for more viable compartments. It would also mean risking opening herself up to unfortunate company, far too eager to sit next to a pretty young thing like herself.

And so, the happy medium came in the form of mediocrity. Otherwise known as, the middle compartments. With the comfort of being at an adequate distance from the back, but the issue of being home to lukewarm company and people who smacked on their gum. Unfortunately, a risk she would have to take.

Thus, the Slytherin made way towards the middle, quickly finding herself an empty car and propped her legs up on the seat in front of her. Only then did she pull out a copy of teen-witch that she did not care for and put a pair of wired earbuds in her ear. What did the wire connect to? Absolutely nothing. But hopefully they'd send a message that she didn't care to be spoken to. She hid the end of the cable in her pocket in case. It was better to uphold the illusion.

Austin found a seat. Somewhere in the middle. He saw a girl that had headphones on. He just opened the conpartment door and sat on the bench across from her. He moved his duffle over onto his lap and took out a book that he was reading. A muggle title that his dad gave him.

Jackson watched on as Austin found himself a seat in one of the middle compartments. Jackson smiled in the direction of the Slytherin girl that he didn't quite know. Well it didn't look like it would be too loud in here today... "If you have any questions, I'll be back this way a bit later, Austin." Jackson gave another smile to the two quiet kids and headed back to the prefect compartment.

Austin nodded to him to let him know he heard him. He could hear just fine. He just can't speak.

Analiese walked down the train to look for somewhere to sit. In her opinion, where you sat was quite an important choice. She chose to sit in the very middle. One of her perfectionist moments here, everyone. She reached up to put her briefcase on the shelf above the seats, but it was too high. "I hate being a midget.", Analiese quietly mumbled to herself. Anyone who walked past her compartment would see her jumping up and down, trying to put her briefcase on the shelf.

Analiese was probably the only first year who ventured further than the front cars. They were all probably too frightened. Fright was explainable.

Austin looked up from his book. He had heard footsteps going to another compartment. He saw a girl, a first year maybe trying to put her suit case on the shelf above her. He stood up and headed over there. He tapped on her shoulder to get her attention.

Analiese felt a tap on her shoulder. Her case accidentally fell to the floor. She turned around and saw a boy trying to get her attention. "What?", Analiese said, trying her hardest not to sound rude. She seemed to sound rude in unnecessary circumstances when she wasn't being rude.

Austin pointed to her case and then pointed to the shelf above her. He extended his arms. A wordless gesture asking if he could help her.

"Yes, you can help me if you want.", Analiese said. She wondered why he wasn't speaking. Maybe he couldn't. Selective mutism, maybe?

Austin nodded and carefully took the suitcase out of her hands. He then stretched on his toes and pushed the suit case onto the shelf.

"Thanks.", Analiese said. She sat down and pulled her favourite book out of her pocket. It was a muggle book by Philip Pullman. She opened it to the page she had marked and continued reading. "Do you have selective mutism?", she asked, looking up from her book.

Austin bit his lip and put his finger up as to say 'one minute'. After that, he went to the other compartment that he left his stuff at. He grabbed his duffle and then came back. Austin sat down across from the girl and she asked a question about selective mutism.
That was the first time someone actually said that. Usually, they would look at him strangely or call him rude names. Austin nodded. He guessed yeah.

"My grandfather used to have it.", Analiese said. She turned the page in her book and continued reading. "I'm Analiese.", she said holding out her hand for him to shake.

Austin nodded and shook her hand. He opened his duffle and took out his notebook and pencil. He wrote something down for her to see.

SPOILER!!: Notebook

My name's Austin. It's nice to meet you too.

This was her first time boarding on Hogwarts Express so Aurora was quite nervous but also excited at the same time. She missed going back to real school and mingling with the people, even though homeschooling had made her more focus on her study but let's be honest... It sucked. Her parents almost made her to be homeschooled again due to several issues about Hogwarts and its security but thankfully her older sister helped her negotiating so.. here she was!

Perhaps she should've found an empty compartment for herself and let other people join. Aurora loved having some companies. But it looked like it's quite difficult to find an empty space at this train since most of other students had occupied them with their friends. So.... where should she sit then? Maybe she would see Eniola or some other students whom she had met earlier around the Diagon Alley?

The Korean-American kept walking around the middle train to find some place to sit and her brown eyes noticed there was a compartment with just one girl, who seemed younger than her. Without any doubt, she decided to slide the door open. "Hi, excuse me." She said as her tinted-lips curled a smile. "Do you mind if I sit here or are you specifically waiting for your other friends to join in?" If this compartment was reserved for that girl's friends, Aurora wouldn't mind to find other seats.

Nina watched as the young boy (Austin) made his way into her compartment. Immediately she moved to the edge of her seat, eyeing him with mild disinterest and mighty disapproval. It was fortunate for them both that the boy immediately got up and left, finding another compartment more worthy of his interest. Nina Castillo was not about to be caught sitting with a first year. That was the worst thing she could do for her social status at Hogwarts.

And while she had very few friends, she still had a reputation to uphold. That's what mattered most.

Again her eyes returned back to her magazine, legs outstretched before her. Her feet were aching, you see. Wearing heels all day did that to a person. Beauty was pain. It would be quite a while before she would have to change into (the drab) school uniform, and she planned on enjoying her freedom while she still had the chance. The freedom and blisters, apparently. Nina only looked up when she heard the door slide open once more. Thinking it must be the same boy, the Slytherin closed her copy of teen-witch, and looked up to glare at--

Oh.

Immediately her expression softened (not all the way, but quite a bit) and she paused to consider the question. Truth be told, she didn't want to share her compartment with someone she didn't know. Nor did she want to share it with a girl when she could sit with a cute boy instead. But seeing that it had been quite a while since she had boarded, the chances of a cute boy stumbling by were starting to look incredibly slim. And if she said yes, others who passed by would hopefully assume the two of them were friends. Nina needed more of those. For show, obviously.

And so she nodded, "I don't mind." She gestured to the girl to come in, giving her a warm (albeit, somewhat practiced smile). "I'm Nina Castillo," she offered, extending her hand forward, somewhat wincing as she removed her feet from the seat across from her and placed them back on the floor.

Eniola was excited for the new school year, it meant she was one year closer to graduating and that was always exciting to think of. Although she will miss Hogwarts, she knows that. She was just so excited to get into her career.

She stepped into the middle cars and tried to find an empty compartment although at this point almost all of them were full. Just her luck. Of course she had to be running late today of all days! Once she learns to apparate she wont' have to worry about this anymore. It's so much easier. She rolled her eyes at herself and continued to walk down the hallway, trying not to bump into anyone.

Avalon took a deep breath and tried to compose herself as she boarded the middle section of the Hogwarts Express. Today was not going at all according to plan. She had slept through her alarm, accidentally spilled a cup of tea on herself at breakfast, and stubbed her toe on the front door on the way outside. To make matters worse, she had realized (once she was already halfway to Kings' Cross) that she forgot her winter cloak. She had to turn back to retrieve it, since she wouldn't be coming home again until the holidays. Luckily, she still made it to the platform on time, but her stress levels were far higher than she would have preferred.

She stopped at the door and gave one last wave to her parents. Theo gave his daughter a wave, while Madeline smiled somberly, dabbing at her eyes briefly with a handkerchief. Avalon gave her parents a thumbs up and proceeded down the hallway of the train. She had promised herself last night to sit in an already-occupied compartment in order to start making friends. But now that the time was here, she suddenly felt more shy than ever. And after the morning she had, she was already on edge. She didn't want to be labeled as one of those annoying first years and risk making a fool out of herself by asking to sit in an occupied compartment. So, she ducked into an empty car. After settling in, Avalon pulled out her journal. Why not pass the time before the train leaves by writing? Avalon figured that she could be social a little later. She did want to make some acquaintances before she got to the castle. But for now, she was content with her moleskin notebook and pencil.

It was not easy to be a new student, she admitted that. Not to mention the Korean-American came from the different county so the culture and habit lag was kind of real. Remember when she was confused with fries, chips and crisps? Yeah, that was one of the example. She didn't know how the social rules acted around here, including the seat on this train. Perhaps the girl in this compartment was waiting for her clique or significant to join so Aurora wouldn't mind to step away.

But apparently didn't.

"Thank you." She smiled as she took a seat and put her Chanel bag down. "It's kind of difficult when you're a new student and try to find an available compartment." Not that she was complaining, but it's just a little bit confusing for a newbie like her. Noticing the girl introduced herself and extended her hand, Aurora smiled back and took her hand while shaking it. "Aurora Chae, I just transferred to be sixth year this term." Casually she mentioned about being a new student because she did have no idea whether Nina was a returning student or also a new kid on the block just like herself.

Aurora couldn't help but noticed about the painful expression on the girl's face. "I have some healing paste to help with the blisters." She totally understood the suffer of wearing high heels, even though she only wore that for some certain occasions.

Remember when she was confused with fries, chips and crisps? Yeah, that was one of the example. She didn't know how the social rules acted around here, including the seat on this train. Perhaps the girl in this compartment was waiting for her clique or significant to join so Aurora wouldn't mind to step away.

But apparently didn't.

"Thank you." She smiled as she took a seat and put her Chanel bag down. "It's kind of difficult when you're a new student and try to find an available compartment." Not that she was complaining, but it's just a little bit confusing for a newbie like her. Noticing the girl introduced herself and extended her hand, Aurora smiled back and took her hand while shaking it. "Aurora Chae, I just transferred to be sixth year this term." Casually she mentioned about being a new student because she did have no idea whether Nina was a returning student or also a new kid on the block just like herself.

Aurora couldn't help but noticed about the painful expression on the girl's face. "I have some healing paste to help with the blisters." She totally understood the suffer of wearing high heels, even though she only wore that for some certain occasions.
Nina watched the girl with a studious sense of curiosity. As if weighing out whether engaging in a conversation would be worthy of her time. It was often difficult to make the call right away, unfortunately. The Slytherin did, however, continue to make silent observations. The first notable observation was the color she wore on her lips. The second was easily the handbag. While the third was the new comer's slight hesitance. She curled her lips upwards-a BIT- to acknowledge the thanks, but otherwise kept quiet.

"Which school did you attend, Aurora?" Surely not Beauxbatons as the girl did not look the least bit familiar. Retracting her hand and scooting back into her seat, the fourth year smiled back. If only her roommates could see this. Nina Castillo could be friendly when she wanted to be.

As for the salve? Nina took a moment to consider the offer. "That is very kind of you, but I'll be fine." Ultimately she decided to turn it down. While the blisters were painful and not at all ideal, she could still make use of them. Perhaps Calloway would be willing to give her a piggyback ride up to her dormitory!

Probably carrying a lavish designer handbag was too much for a sixteen year-old, but she didn't use that to flaunt her social status. Aurora simply just loved the bag because 1) It's very convenient (not to mention the undetectable extension charm that her dad put on) and 2) It was her sixteenth birthday present. And as for the lip tint... Well, she couldn't leave her house or dorm without it. Hold on, using make up (or at least lip color) was allowed at Hogwarts, right? She would flip if it was against the rules (but nude-colored lipsticks to the rescue, then!)

"Oh, I was from Ilvermorny..." The Korean-American said, there was still a hint of Boston accent every time she spoke (and probably it wouldn't go away). "But I left the school after Christmas, my parents said I'd rather to be homeschooled before going to Hogwarts because of the different exam system. So I can have OWL scores before starting here." Yeah, the different exam systems was kind of driving her insane. She was supposed to do J.A.R.V.E.Y.S on her current year but apparently Hogwarts did the exams on fifth and seventh year.

She was actually a bit concerned about the blisters on Nina's feet, it didn't look good. Aurora had experienced that and it was just so painful. "Are you sure?" She asked Nina again, but if the girl thought she was fine for that then it's okay. "That's a nice pair of shoes though." Perhaps it was brand new so Nina still wasn't used to wear it. Understandable.

She asked Nina again, but if the girl thought she was fine for that then it's okay. "That's a nice pair of shoes though." Perhaps it was brand new so Nina still wasn't used to wear it. Understandable.
The handbag was, admittedly, quite stunning. Nina knew quite a few things about fashion and she's particularly keen on accessorizing. How someone their age could get their hands on a Chanel bag (and then casually throw it onto a train heading to school) was quite curious. "Is it real?" she inquired, her eyes moving to the bag to indicate that she meant the purse.

To be quite honest, Nina found the girl's lengthy explanation entirely unnecessary. She didn't share this thought, however, instead the Slytherin simply nodded her head to indicate that she was listening. Which, to be fair, she was. Immediately hearing the name Ilvermorny was a great turn off. Another American. They were the worst. Always had to be the center of every conversation, didn't know much about cultures aside from their own, centered every gathering around food and food alone.... But again, she kept her smile in place. These were secret thoughts. "I left my previous school half way through the year as well." Unwillingly. And she STILL hated Hogwarts (mostly) for the record.

While Aurora seemed to show concern about Nina's blisters, the Slytherin wasn't as bothered. She nodded her head in reply to the question. Having blisters would come in handy for the rest of the night, especially if she played it right. "Thanks, they're new." Hence the blisters.

Austin nodded and shook her hand. He opened his duffle and took out his notebook and pencil. He wrote something down for her to see.

SPOILER!!: Notebook

My name's Austin. It's nice to meet you too.
Analiese smiled at Austin and carried on reading. It wouldn't be long before she had to change into her uniform. She didn't need to do much changing anyway since she was already wearing her shirt and skirt. Right now she was only skimming her copy of Clockwork by Philip Pullman. Still, Fritz was an optimist, and Karl was a pessimist, and that makes all the difference in the world... The world is a cruel place sometimes, and warm-hearted people do most of the good in it. And much of the time, they're mocked and scorned for their pains... The words drifted through Analiese's mind as she slowly made her way towards the end of the book.

Austin blinked and just shrugged as she smiled and continued reading. He put his notebook back and decided staring out the window would be best
