She didn't know about the different schools herself, only having heard a little about it from some older students. "I don't know what exactly happened, but I think the school split up in two schools, one for boys and one for girls..". It seemed horrible to her, and she thought she remembered vaguely someone saying the girls school was with a lot and flowers and girlish.. Raiden grinned at Meredith and Roscoe sneezed and shook his furry little head. "Thanks, Meredith. I just got him when I was in Diagon Alley, my mum wasn't too happy." He laughed. "She wanted me to get an owl, so I could write... She wants me to write like, every day but I can't do that." He suddenly realized just how much he did his his parents, though. This was the first time he was away from the for a long period of time. Hospitals stays, they'd always been there, nearly 24/7. This was going to be different. "I figured I'd write her maybe three times a week... She should be happy then." Quote:

"Thats right!" Celandine agreed to the dormitories comment, "Barry can show us up to the common rooms since he's in the same house as we are."
Cela brightened even further when Meredith admitted she liked to read.
"Oh thats good! I like to read too! Anything! Everything! Even menus at restaurants and help wanted signs in shop windows! You really never know when you are going to learn something new and exciting."
The next question confused her slightly and Cela peeked at the owl cage under the table,
"I haven't got a clue!" She turned to Barry, "Do you know? Whether its a boy or a girl?" Cela adjusted the cloth covering the cage and straightened up.
"I'll see if Professor Brooks knows if you don't Barry and maybe she can help me name it!" Celandine liked the Care of Magical Creatures Professor- she had such fun classes.
"Arkarian is a really neat name." Celandine responded solemnly.
Raiden had an infectious giggle and Cela couldn't help but join in.
She let out a hushed sound of awe when she saw the kitten- it was almost but not quite as cute as Sheeta's kitten, Swirls.
"Roscoe is a cool name." Celandine stated, in the same solemn tone she had given her opinion on the name of Meredith's owl.
"I don't know." Cela shrugged, "They are Slytherins though. Slytherins are angsty." Cela peered over at the table and her eyes widened as she realised her brother now was talking to the pretty prefect. She didn't even click that she was talking to Raiden and Lucas either; so didn't think to clarify the angsty Slytherin comment.
"Well I guess they know each other now." Cela gestured at the table, then looked around her own table; wondering which of the girls her brother's age would end up on Nico's list.
"Some girls transfigured themselves into boys and snuck over." Celandine turned her attention back to the conversation, "The girls learned how to make our faces and our hair like boys, in Transfiguration class. I saw my brother a few times in Hogsmeade. Not every time though since he was always disappearing with some girl or another."
Raiden tilted his head to the side and studied Celandine. "Angsty? What's angsty mean?" A new word he'd never heard before. Roscoe shook with another sneeze, then stumped off of Rai's lap on his short little legs, up onto Celandine's, and then stood up, putting his front paws on the table so he could peek up over the edge. He wanted to see what had been going on while he slumbered.
"The girls turned themselves into boys?" Raiden asked, surprised. "That's neat! I can't wait to start learning how to transfigure things!"
And then she was talking about seeing her brother in Hogsmeade, but she hadn't been able to see him every time... how sad. Raiden knew that he was going to miss Shiro all term long, the precocious little four year old who had followed him around Diagon Alley the entire time, sucking his thumb. His little brother.
"If I were your brother, I would have made sure to see you any time that Hogsmeade was open," Raiden said softly, reaching over and scratching Roscoe's ears. "Family shouldn't be split up if they're going the same place..." Quote:

"Ours is off the seventh floor Even if we have different common rooms doesn`t mean we won`t see each other much" he added quickly "They`ll be classes the grounds and like Cela said the library which Celas very keen on seeing it a ravenclaw thing" then he said "Don`t forgot my birthdays not far. That reminds me Raiden if you want you can come to the party of couce I have to see with the groundskeeper where to have it. Cela after last term I just want to have fun" Barry smilled "Oh really I remember meeting Nico then he seemed very worried a bout the girls"
Barry listened to Raiden "Ah your freinds with Evangeline already? It took me a while but she is much nicer these days cause shes prefect" Raiden grinned widely again. "I love the library... I like reading, it's fun. I used to have nothing else to do while in the hos-" he stopped himself. They didn't want to know about stuff like that, it would only make them worry. "I've read lots of books... When I grow up, I wanna do something important with my magic."
He was proud of his ambition, even if it HAD landed him in Slytherin, the house that some people still thought was a bad place to be. He would fix that, this term. He would show people that the house you were in didn't make you who you were.
"Your birthday is soon?" he asked excitedly. "That's awesome! I've never really been to a birthday party before, at least not one for people my own age... It was always for either Shiro, or a family friend, or a Muggle friend... And Evangeline Green is a very, very nice girl." He added the last part on proudly, as if it would be good to note that Evangeline Green was both a Slytherin and a good person. "I ran into her on the train, and she caught me at the table to make sure I was okay. She's very nice." |
