The driver and snack lady sit waaaaaay up front in the driver's cab, but there are plenty of other compartments up here! Careful you don't sit in the Prefects' cab though. They bite.

Thankfully he was staying, and still willing to share the candy, even if he did had a ton of rules that went along with it. "Who's Bodie and Dima? Do the go here?" Because more friends, right? Except maybe younger, but still fun. "I like chocolate frogs and pumpkin pasties and cauldron cakes best." So all the candy he was saving for friends (or his dragon thing that was flying around? Paris saw that) was safe. He pulled out his own stash, which included everything he'd previously mentioned as well as more chocolates and creature candies.
"Yeah, Paris. Like the city only better." The boy grinned, shoving more of the chocolate frog into his mouth. "That's awesome! My name's spelled like the city. What year are ya going into?" He seemed like he already knew the lay of the land and so this probably wasn't his first year.
He didn't care if he was here or not? Really? Kyroh tried not to frown because that didn't make him feel good at all. Even if he didn't know the boy.....
"Bodie is Maddie to you. And Dima- you can call him Dima." Kyroh nodded. Yes. He gave permission for Paris to call Dima, by his shortened name, but only because everyone else did. "They do! They're my best friends but I can't find them." Cause clearly they weren't in this compartment either. Which wasn't cool. Didn't they want to meet a Paris? "Most of the rest is for my other friends." Like Dot and Zander and Toby. None were for him. He didn't eat candy or chocolate anymore okay?
Kyroh's eyes followed the boy's to his dragon and he grinned. "That's Ramsey. He doesn't like people and he might try to set you on fire but don't mind him, 'cause he's harmless." Yeah?
He had never met ANOTHER kid with a PLACE name before. So that meant they HAD to be friends right? Yup. It was official. "I'm a second year! So I know all about everything at Hogwarts now." He tilted his head and watched him gobble up the chocolate frog. He hadn't SEEN this boy around last term but maybe he just didn't notice him because they hadn't met yet? "What about you?"

Dad person was different than dad but Maddie didn't ask. "Maybe she should tell him that." Her mum. If you wanted something from someone, you should let them know. Not everyone was a mind reader. And the small brunette didn't know who everyone was but she figured Dima was included in that group that Dot missed considering things. "He missed you. I looked after him, though. I promised someone I would."
Maddie got a fleeting smile. Sometimes she really did feel like a friend, although not like a Dima friend or Kyroh friend. Girl friends were so weird, and so much harder than the boy kind. "She tells him. He doesn't hear."
He didn't believe, actually. It was too hard to explain, so Dot focused on pleating her sweater between her fingers and not thinking about her mum and Oggie. Just... think about Dima. And not about Maddie taking care of him, either. "Who'd you promise? Did he take care of you back?"

She gave a firm nod, "And you arent getting out of your cage until you are in the dorm... at least! Maybe even longer..." Mel grumbled and placed the cage above the seat opposite of the one that Murphy was above. She threw her cloak over the cage. "Now you are going to take a nap because I dont want to deal with your attitude and get all scratched up again!"
She huffed and plopped down on one side, propping up her feet. Melek glanced up at Bryant. She was going to answer him but he seemed to have rushed off. Mel sighed then shrugged, just closing her eyes and leaning her head back. Melek just laid there, waiting on her boyfriend to get back... if he ever did get back... he might have been stopped by a group of girls who found him cute... he was cute... though she hoped that he had enough brains to remember that he was taken... Mel did get jealous if there was a reason but she figured... or more hoped that he wouldnt ditch her just for a cuter girl. She wasnt cute like he was... just average looking but who knew...
Bryant rushed back into the compartment, lugging his broom behind him, just as the train started to pick up speed. Dumping his broom on the opposite seat, the lanky fifth year lifted his girlfriend's feet and sat down next to her, putting her feet on his lap as the had been before he sat down. Smiling, he emptied his pockets of sweets from the trolley. Yes... he knew he was the best boyfriend.
"You ready to go back to the castle? You think there's still gonna be snow?" He asked, biting a leg off one of the chocolate frogs he had gotten. It was time they go back since Bryant was starting to get sick of living with his brother in a tiny apartment. He'd almost rather go back to the states for holiday except that then he wouldn't get to see Mel all summer, and he couldn't have that. These thoughts went in and out of his mind as he sat, watching the scenery go by behind his girlfriend's head.

She cracked open an eye to see what or who was messing with her feet. Melek smiled when she saw that her boyfriend was back and had her feet on his lap. Mel didnt mind that he moved her feet and put them on his lap instead of sitting across from her... she actually liked it better that way. A smile came to her face and she started to close her eyes until...
Her eyes opened again at hearing wrappers. Her eyes widened and her smile grew. "How did I get so lucky?" Mel took a chocolate frog and bit off the head. Melek glanced at him as she munched on the candy. "I miss you, Bryant... I barely saw you since Hogwarts." She pouted and closed her eyes again, leaning her head back. Mel was trying to relax.
"nope... The only reason i want to go back because it means getting to see you." Melek shivered, a little cold. "I hope not... It is already cold..." Mel rubbed her arms and changed positions so that her head was on his shoulder and her legs are curled up under her. "Hmm... comfy..."

Ethan would love to keep wearing his muggle street clothing until the last minute, but since he’s got an extra assignment for the whole term, he had to change into his school robes. The fair-haired boy could feel his cheeks flush in excitement and anxiety. Merlin. He’s a prefect. He was just a transfer last term, and now he gets to, somehow, lead his House. It’s power alright, but Ethan was more concerned about the extra work he needed to accomplish for the term.
As he emerged from the Station’s bathroom, Ethan took a deep breath as he watched the students board the train, and exchanged their goodbyes with their loved ones. Mordred was kind enough to spare some time to accompany him into the Platform, but Ethan had to shoo his cousin away because he had to get down to business. Tucking away his clothes and trunks inside the luggage compartment, and making sure that everyone was already on board, he followed the last student to get inside the train and made his way towards the front cars.
Hands stuffed inside his trouser’s pockets, the prefect would casually look inside each compartment making sure that everyone was behaving, and at the same time, hoping to find his Watson. Ethan owled his best bud to meet him in the Leaky Cauldron, but he never replied. The lad must be busy unpacking, and repacking stuff from their old home in Australia to their new one in London. He was sure Simon was busy sorting his stuff too for Hogwarts. But Merlin, if only Watson knew WHY he wanted to see him.
Ethan was distracted when he passed by a compartment filled with a few of his friends. There was Adi, Ben, and…was that AJ or Angel? Ethan couldn’t tell, but he was SHOCKED when he witnessed the lioness KISS the Hufflepuff…Prefect. WAIT. Adi’s a prefect too?! OH HOW COOL IS THAT??! Ethan took a deep breath and was about to open their compartment door, when a tiny voice in his head told him to stop. Right. Of course. He had to patrol, and find Simon.
Well, so far so good, so maybe he’d settle in one of the empty compartments? Ethan thought it was a good idea to shut himself first from all the chaos that was happening outside, and deal with the badge inside his pocket. He took the shiny green badge out and examined it. “Merlin’s beard…”
Simon's summer had been a long adventure. It had taken several weeks to move over to London and get set up properly which meant that he rarely had any time to spend with his friends. However, the boy was proud that he DID get to see Ethan, Cutty, Caleb, Grayson, and Sophie at Florean's that one time. He also saw CB too which was fun. Merlin had she grown prettier by the day. His cheeks flushed at the very thought and he chuckled to himself. Glancing out the window, he watched the lazy landscape roll by and wondered where his best mate was. He hadn't seen Ethan at King's Cross. In fact, he hadn't seen ANY of his good friends- not even Zander for crying out!
So the boy had taken a seat in the middle compartment with a couple of dormmates as he couldn't find Ethan. After staying in the same seat for a while, the boy decided to get up and walk around so he headed towards the front of the train. On his walk, he contemplated the possibilities of what this year would hold for them. More mysteries? More Grayphie? More CB? More of Bianca Caruso and her infuriating deductions? Or more Agatha turning into the Hulk and smashing everything? He nodded thoughtfully. That sounded like a good year. He continued down the corridor until he spotted an oh so familiar tuft of blonde hair. Was that...?
Simon had missed his best mate so much over the summer. Being separated from Holmes was like having a limb cut off- a very unpleasant and excruciatingly painful experience, mind you. "ETHAAN! HOW ARE YOU!?" he cried, rushing over to his mate and giving him a side hug. And then the boy looked down slightly and saw Ethan holding a very nice shiny green badge in his hands. Wait. Was that a Prefect's badge? WHY HADN'T ETHAN TOLD HIM!!! Did everyone else know by now? No. No. Probably not. Let's hope not, Simon. Sherlock would tell his Watson everything. Or everything that he needed to know. An uneasy feeling gathered in the bottom of Simon's stomach and he paused to take a deep breath and gather his thoughts. "WOAH. MATE. YOU'RE A...." he began- not knowing whether or not to utter the next words cause it could be top secret and he didn't want to blow the surprise for everyone else.

Ethan flipped the badge over and over, lost in his thoughts about the responsibilities now resting on his shoulders. The fourth year mulled over the fact that he was just a fourth year, and already badged. He thought he was too young to have that kind of responsibility, but at least he wasn’t alone because based on what he saw earlier, Adi had his badge this early too. What he could not understand, was that there were so many others to choose from, and out of the bunch, he stuck out like a sore thumb. It didn’t help too that he was a new face last term.
Apart from those, there was his father. As expected, Aldred didn’t care much that his son got prefected over the summer. It was a good thing that Ethan was prepared, and he was spared from being disappointed. At least his cousin Mordred and Uncle Aldrich were very happy for him. He even got a new skateboard as a prize! The fourth year grinned to himself, but then sighed at the thought of helming the Slytherin house with his co-prefect.
For the record, this will be the first time that Ethan will do leadership stuff. Was he cut out for it? Can he do it? Concerns came in waves, and didn’t notice that someone was standing outside his compartment. The blond boy bolted in his seat and dropped his badge when the silence surrounding him was disturbed by a very familiar voice and face. “WATSON!” Ethan’s face lit up, the badge momentarily forgotten on the floor, and returned his best mate’s side hug. Merlin, it felt good to see a familiar face, and a person he trusts the most. Ethan blinked when Simon started to…stutter? What? Oh. The badge. On the floor.
The fourth year picked it up and rubbed the face against his school robe. “…this is the reason why I wanted to see you in the Leaky back in Diagon,” he started as he showed the badge bearing a silver ‘P’ against an emerald coloured shield. “I’m your new Prefect. And I’m worried.” The smile slowly faded from the boy’s face. "I'm not sure if I can do it..."

If he wasn't hearing, perhaps he didn't WANT to hear. That or maybe he needed hearing assistance but Maddie kept BOTH thoughts to herself. They were entering personal territory and the brunette wasn't sure she wanted to know things if it meant she'd need to share things TOO. "They'll figure it out." They were adults. Adults usually did and if they didn't, well they'd need to sort that out for themselves.
"Dora." Maddie got a hold of Zeus and placed him in her lap, busying herself with scratching between his ears. "She was prefect and slightly scary but also fabulous in a way that scary women usually ARE." Maddie was going to be scary someday TOO as soon as she grew into her beauty the way her mum had. "Mostly. Dima makes me smile even when I'm feeling bad so that counts." She guessed it did, anyway.
