SPOILER!!: Frankie, Dot, Hattie Quote:

Now, obviously, the blond wasn't planning on hand-holding Hattie forever ... but she did need to get off on the right foot.
The Hogwarts Express was just the right spot to do that. After putting away his trunk, he intended on continuing his tradition of finding the trolley lady. However, he did happen to catch sight of the blond bob of hair that belonged to his sister. Was she asking someone if she could sit with them? Oh no, oh no. Firstly, Patons sat whenever they wanted; they didn't need to ask. Secondly, who was she talking to??
"Be careful with that one, sis," he said from behind her, peering over the top of her head, once he caught sight of Dot. "She bites."
He was about to smirk to show that he was joking, but then some chick pushed her way into the compartment. Now that one would REALLY bite someone. Sheesh! "Please and thank you's go a long way, you know. Apologize to my sister." He flashed the prefect badge at her, just in case she needed some motivation. Quote:

"I don't bite, actually, or I don't leave much of a mark when I do." She closed her eyes again and left Frankie to deal with the rude pushing girl, since he had a vested interest to do so. Like sibling reasons. Although... sibling reasons probably meant that he couldn't be trusted not to lose his mind. Dot would probably throw someone out the carriage window if they talked to or touched her baby brother like that.
So she sat up and shifted her legs to the floor. "It's customary for people to ask permission to join a compartment that is already occupied. I'm Charlotte, this is my compartment, and you are..." She offered raised eyebrows and a mostly cordial tone to the older (pushier) girl, and a sly wink to the ickle. For biting reasons. Quote:

She was about to ask the older girl if she was okay to sit with her when someone pushed past her. "Unf..." The first year muttered as she was pushed aside. She was actually about to say something when she heard her older brother's voice. Yay. Older brother to the rescue. Now that was why she kept Frankie around, or well why her mother did clearly.
She grinned a little as she looked up at her older brother. She did appreciate him coming to her rescue, even though she could manage it herself. She was a Paton after all. "She's very rude Frankie" She said to her older brother, as she looked over at Nicky.
She grinned a little more as she caught the other older girls wink. Interesting. She glanced up at Frankie, and then back at the girl, Charlotte she'd said her name was, trying to make her mind. "She looks too nice to bite. You're wrong Frankie" At the boy's voice, Nicky turned, a single eyebrow raised. A look of disbelief crossed her face as she glanced at the badge he was flashing and he ordered her to apologize. What... was that? Clearly unimpressed, Nicky crossed her arms over her chest. "Please," she said, drawing out the word somewhat sarcastically, "take that tacky piece of tin you clearly fished out of a cereal box and wave it at someone who cares."
Except the sleeping girl wasn't actually sleeping and was now chiming in. Well, how was she supposed to know! Her cheeks felt hot as another person chided her. "Well, I didn't see anyone's name on it," she retorted somewhat defensively. Merlin, she hated it here already and they were barely underway. Having just pushed in, she moved to leave the compartment instead as Charlotte asked for her name and the tiny nuisance called her rude.
"I'm.. leaving," she said in response, making sure she had her handbag and looking to move past the sibling duo. "Move. Please.""
