"Is that what that thing is? A thestral?" she leaned out of the carriage to look at the bony butt of the creepy horse there. "His name is Thackery Thestral. He's Grand Duke of Bony Butts." Obviously. She settled back into her seat and crossed her arms across her chest.
"It was the little gray one. He's a boy, but he doesn't have a name yet. What should we call him?" She fished around in her pocket and drew out the fluff of kitten.
Oh, stranger danger. Even though Dot had spent so much time spreading out on her side of the carriage, at the sight of this stranger, she immediately scooted over to Kyroh's side and squeezed in next to him. This boy had a lot of hair and was running and was just a LITLE overwhelming to the second year.
"O... kay." She pointed to the seat across from her.

His thoughts of creatures of death and probably impending boom disappeared for a second though, because KITTEN talk!! And AND KITTEN!! The boy reached for the tiny creature, taking it right from Dot's hands and snuggling it. IT WAS SO CUTE!!!!! It made Kyroh wish even MORE than his papa had let him bring his cat to Hogwarts. "We should call him Fluffy!! Like the three headed dog that used to live at Hogwarts. It was ferocious-" He tried to snarl but it was hard with the kitten right against his cheek. "-and it liked classical music." SO THERE! "Unless you don't want to call him Fluffy. Then you can call him Lancelot." But THAT was always a good name. Right up there, next to Bruce Wayne.
As he continued to cuddle Fluffy Lancelot Bruce Wayne the kitten another boy entered the carriage! "Hii!! I don't think we mind. I don't mind. But I can't read Dot's brain to tell if she minds. Though there's no such thing really as mind reading." Mind reading to tell if someone minded. But look! Now she was over on his side!
"You have lots of hair. Are you a musician?"
"Thanks," he said, taking a seat across from the two.
"I'm Dylan, by the way." he added after the silence that followed. Heh. As he sat there, he noticed the kitten in the boy's arms. OOOH it was so cute! Dylan LOVED cats...hence the orange cat sitting in his own lap.
"What's the cat's name?" he asked, gesturing to the adorable lil' fluffball in the guy's arms.
He did indeed have lots of hair.
And he was a musician.
"You sure you can't read minds?" Dylan asked with a laugh as he nodded.
"Yeah, I am a musician. And I do indeed have quite a bit of hair..." he smiled.
