Hogwarts RPG Name: Ariella Ann Day First Year | Text Cut: My collection of quotes... Quote:

Catching the girl’s comment, Em frowned. “Probably because they forgot what it was like being a firstie.” As she said this, she couldn’t help but think back to her first year, when she was a nervous wreck, how Lafay scared her, and her best friends.
But then she caught the other girl’s statement. Did she really just say that? “Well, I don’t think it’s a good idea to ever climb on any train, even the Hogwarts Express. And my experience with owls has taught me that they rarely need saving. They are usually pretty good at staying out of trouble.” Except for Bubba, but that bird was nuts. “And I can assure you all that you were lucky it was student that found you. Any professor’s punishment would be ten times worse I’m sure. And some of them,” like the potionsmistress, the girl though, “would have put you in detention until you were seventh years.” She hadn't meant to get all serious on some firsties on the train ride in, but apparently kids had gotten way crazier in the last few years.
Anyways, Em noticed that the food trolley lady didn't seem to be helping anybody at the moment so she decided to go ahead and order. "Ma'am, can I have four chocolate frogs for my friends here, two pumpkin pasties, a licorice wand, and a pumpkin juice?" she asked, setting her payment on the trolley. "Thanks" she said, placing the bag with the pasties into her messenger bag, and handing the frogs out to each of the kids. Quote:

Pulling out his potion book he goes back to work,Looking over to see Bubba lifting the latch with beak again,"Bubba for the love of Merlin RELAX. If I dont get the last touches on this potion done befor we get back to the school Em will know,I will be mad and you will be Hippogriff food, So have some Jerky." Slipping a large thin slice between the bars for him to munch on"I know you are excited so am I but just let me do this" Quote:

Em didn’t want to scare the kids any more than she already had, so she decided not to tell them any of the rumors or things the teachers had done. “Merlin. Most to them are strict and scary, especially about something like this, and I’m sure even the nicest one would have had you in detention for a couple of months. Climbing on the train was very dangerous. What if one of you had fallen?” They could have hurt themselves as well as others. She gave them all a smile. “And just remember, the number one rule at Hogwarts is ‘Don’t Die’.” There, now the headmaster could be proud.
As Em was lecturing the kiddies, she thought she heard a familiar voice. She was unsure if the owner was really who she thought it was because it had been so long since she had seen the boy. Turning and seeing that it was in fact her best friend, she grinned. “Michael! Hey.” She said giving him a hug. Which was difficult seeing as he was carrying bird brain, and a book. “What have you got there?” she asked nodding towards the book as she reached in her bag. Pulling out one of Halt’s treats, she gave it to Bubba. Quote:

They really must have forgotten what being a firstie was like seeing as she was sure that at least one of them had a wild side when they were entering Hogwarts...maybe all of them. It probably wasn't such a common thing anyway and besides she had heard tonnes of stories about the castle from her neighbour and he always described the students as being insane!
Her eyes fell to the floor when they were told that they were lucky it wasn't a professor who had caught them on the train. That was pretty much true. She didn't even want to imagine what it would have been like if a professor had seen them up there. Cringe.
Lex's eyes shot up to the girl again when she said that a particular professor would have put them in detention until they were seventh years. That didn't sound very promising!!! "Seriously?! Is she like one of those strict and scary professors?" She must have been if she was capable of locking students in detention for so long!
And then she heard it. The girl was buying them chocolate frogs. These people sure knew how to spoil her! She smiled widely as she accepted the frog. Such yummy goodness, she could hardly contain her enthusiasm!
Yeah....the train ride had barely gotten anywhere and she was already back at the trolley. She didn't know why but it just seemed like every time she tried to stay away it just kept calling her back.
She was trying her hardest to not buy any more candy seeing as she now had a whole bag full but well...there was no reason why she couldn't come to gawk at the candy buy something else...a snack maybe.
Walking up to the food trolley she saw a boy already standing there. He looked young and that was good enough for her. She had had enough of the older students and couldn't wait until she didn't have to go near them. Ugh, the ones that weren't being bossy were being rude and if they weren't being rude they were grossing her out with their kissing. It was amazing that she managed to keep anything down around these people! "Hello." She said, popping up behind him.
Ariella gladly accepted the chocolate frog. Yummy! She sunk her teeth into it and took a large bite, oh how she loved chocolate! She listen carefully as Alexa asked about the proffessors. "But we didn't fall," Ari pointed out as the girl talked about what the proffessors wouldn have done, then giggled as she told them the number one rule...
'Don't Die'
Ari couldn't handle that, she certainly didn't plan on dying her first year at Hogwarts, and she hadn't died yet so thats a good thing. She took another bite of her chocolate frog and licked her lips, savoring every bit of its surgary goodness, "So what's the new headmistress like? She was the herbology teacher right?"
Ari had read it in the daily prophet, but it was always a good thing to double check, and she wanted to know how much trouble they might get into if she heard about the incedent...
