Default Luggage Compartment

The Hogwarts Express DOES have a place for all your things, you know, so you don't have to drag them into an already-crowded compartment. Store your school trunk, your broom, your owl, and whatever else you brought with you to school in this, the caboose of the train.

Then scoot scoot to another compartment. This one's taken by the trunks.

Regret. Regrets that she'd packed so many darn books.

That's what Clara felt as she dragged her trunk to the luggage compartment. This thing was supposed to be LIGHT. At least much lighter than it was, but there was no doubt that it was her books which were weighing it down, even with a charm in affect on the trunk. "UGHHH." She groaned, draaaaagging it as quickly as possible.

There didn't seem to be too many people on the train for the moment, but once it started filling up, she'd be in TROUBLE.

Come. On. You. Stupid. Trunk.

Abby dragged her trunk onto the train it was so heavy cause of her books but there weren't that many people on the train to help her and she knew that she would have to struggle to lift her trunk on the shelf herself. Once she had stored her trunk she made her way up the train to get a compartment

Did the cat really have to come with her this term? She didn't see the thing but a few times a month over last term. He hated being in his cage but he was running all over the platform. Just like the first time on the train.

The cage was tied to her trunk with her owls cage for easy moving. She made it through the corridor with easy. Heading to the luggage compartment she spotted someone she knew struggling with her own trunk "Clara?" She half sqeeled her name. Getting closer she pushed the other end of her trunk.

Well wasn't this something? Last train ride to school. Quite the interesting feeling she'd admit. Whether there was remorse or not she couldn't say--lie. BIG LIE. There was no remorse, she couldn't wait for the term to be over to get right back on this train and never look back. That's how she saw it and she could bet that was how Felix saw it too.

"Really think you could'a ridden in your cage, just this once, it being the last time and all." She commented idly to the kneazle who'd been quite content to go about in her arms. He pawed lightly at her face in response, a gentle negative, fine.

Lex pulled her trunk along until she found herself at the luggage compartment. See, she could just push through everyone and get her trunk settled but last ride to school and all, she could try this whole patiently standing aside and waiting for the idiots to move thing.

No big deal.

dream until your • dreams come true ~ Human pygmy puff

Jasmine was nervous. She hadnt been this nervous when she had ridden the train to Hogwarts for the very first time last year. With her new Prefect's badge pinned carefully to her robe, she tried to appear confident and responsible. After all, she was supposed to be a leader now. Dragging her trunk to the luggage compartment, Jasmine still could not believe that she had been chosen for the job. She truly had not seen that coming.


With considerable effort, she stowed her trunk and was able to give her full attention to her new pygmy puff. Holding onto his cage, she made her way out into the corridor and went in search of a seat.

Gwen dragged her trunk behind her. Hopefully there was a spot on the floor she could slid it under, otherwise it was going to have to sit in the hallway. The eleven year old was not lifting that up. It was too darn heavy with all the stuff her dad had shoved in there. At least she wouldn't run out of clothes for a while.

Aha! There was one spot just big enough. Gwen dragged her trunk as fast as she could shoving it in the open space...but it was a smaller spot then she thought. Darn trunk. She gave it a little kick. She looked around and spotted an older person. And an older person with a shiny badge at that. "Excuse me. Can you help me put this on the shelf." She was short and weak and would pout if she needed to.

Anyyyy minute now. Not like she'd started tapping her feet impatiently or anything. Nooo, what gave anyone that idea?

It wasn't until the last of her patience had been tried that the persons in front finally squeezed their way out at which point she drew her wand and with a lazy flick got her trunk levitating over to the far corner in between two larger trunks. What people saw so important to drag along to Hogwarts, requiring them to need such large trunks she would never know and she would never think to ask either.

With the trunk gone she spun, intent on either stopping by the Prefect Compartment just to have a look or not being bothered with any of it and simply finding Lottie. She'd take her bestfriend, yes--

"Hmm?" Turning, she'd almost knocked into a little person. Ooo, she happened to like those. "The trunk? Sure thing." Lex took a step back then with another flick of her wand she had the trunk going up and up and up til it hit the shelf in question. "There. Anything else before I become incredibly hard to find?" Because yes, she DID plan to make herself scarce this trip, just in case someone needed a Head Girl.

Gwen smiled at the older person. Glad she was helping her. Her eyes lit up as she used magic to put it up there. "Thanks!" She looked up at the girl, eyeing shiny gold and red badge.

"So I'm guessing your the Head Girl and in Gryffindor." That was a good thing to know. Because those were the types of people that she needed to show her around and help her with classes and stuff. Especially if that was the house she ended up in.

"It was nothing. Learned that spell years ago, 'bout time it came in handy." She said with a dismissive wave before shifting Felix from one hand to the next. He wasn't a fat cat by any means but he wasn't lightweight either, especially not when she'd been holding him since they left the house. All about comfort he was.

Er.....she eyed the half pint curiously for a moment before remembering that despite not changing into her robe she'd stuck the badge on for show and it happened to be in the colour of her house. Right. Funny how easily she forgot that. "Something like that..." Lex conceded a bit hesitantly. Have people know you were Head Girl and suddenly everyone was falling off the train and in need of help. "Or, you know, Lex. I go by that more often." Because, go figure, it had a nicer ring to it than 'Head Girl'.

"And you are?"

Clara'd been so focused on trying to move the silly trunk, that it took her a few moments to realise that she, in fact, wasn't alone anymore. Cinnamon was here, dragging her own trunk into the compartment. She took this chance to ditch her own trunk, and moved around it to give Cinna a hug. "Hey, Cinna," she said, giving the girl a grin. She wasn't normally a hugging person, but this was the first person she'd seen that she knew.

So a special occasion.

"Sorry for the hold up," she apologised, indicating to her trunk. "I brought a lot more books than my trunk can handle, if you seem." It was to the point that her trunk had more books in it than anything else. Totally reasonable in her opinion.

The luggage compartment.

.... aka the onboard shopping boutique.

Huxley flicked her wand, allowing her belongings to drop somewhat unceremoniously onto the crowded baggage area. Another flick popped open a bag-- dark and seemingly empty.

Final term is upon her, which is sad, so sad indeed, and she would weep great deep buckets of tears..... because it means her freebie spree is about to come to an end.

Well at least her boredom will come to an end too. Gotta see the silver lining in things right?

Idly tapping the end of her wand on her other hand, Huxely started to...browse, paying no mind to the voices around her-- except for one. She spotted Lex talking to someone. Hmm Badge-y Cambridge, here to secure... her safety? Why yes, thats exactly how she's taking this.

Toodle doo she wiggled her fingers at the Gryffindor blonde. Now back to shopping.

*As fun as it was dragging his trunk of school things around, Romulus was ready to part ways until they reached Hogwarts. Finally getting to the luggage car Roms lifted up his trunk (filled mostly with books) and sucured it in place. Once done with that he found himself panting.*

He is not some kind of cat god, is he? Ethan was busy looking for the Prefects’ Compartment-slash-patrolling the train when he caught himself standing in front of the Luggage Compartment. That’s when he saw his reflection…and that there was a cat behind him…juuuuust a few inches away from his feet. Should he shoo it away? Feed it? He knew that starting a staring game with the feline will not end so well. Sighing, he crouched and examined the creature. It wasn’t Sebastian…Josie’s cat…or Coop’s.

Merlin. Whoever lost their pet must be panicking by now, no? Poor kid. But…that’s not his problem. He was there to facilitate the students, and not their pets.

The fourth year stood up and went inside the luggage compartment to check if there was some funny business going on inside. Well. None. So far. Turning to return to the corridor, Ethan froze to see the same cat sitting and staring at him. “All right. Let me see your tag.” The prefect reached out and looked around its neck to see if it has a name…and more importantly, who it belongs to.

Of COURSE, Ruby would leave him to haul their luggage onto the train. Alone. Gabriel grumped and groaned as he lugged the two packed FULL trunks into the luggage compartment, only relieved to have the task for distraction. It was most excellent that he wasn't focusing on people....or girls, more specifically. Today was going to be difficult for him. He'd...sorta prepared for it...but it didn't need to start right away. He could make it five minutes....surely...without an anxiety attack.

Naturally, Gabriel was so set on the trunk!task, that he didn't even notice Clara......or anyone else in his immediate vicinity. Not at first anyway...It was fact that he'd been seeing...and HEARING so much of that girl lately that when she did speak, it immediately caught his attention.

Gabriel froze.

His hands were suddenly clammy and cool, a sign of his further distress.

.............and she was holding everyone up.

ONLY because it was Clara, he dropped his current load and IGNORED the other girl (Cinna) to pick up the trunk. This wasn't him flirting of whatever. He was doing this to be DONE in this compartment....so that he could then run and hide....for the remainder of the train ride. Means = End.

For the moment, Clara had stopped hugging Cinna, explained that she would move her trunk now and was trying, to no avail, to shift said trunk. This thing was heavy. She was so focused, in fact, that she'd tuned out Cinna and everyone else so that she could move the trunk faster.

It wasn't until someone picked up the other side of her trunk that she looked up.

O_________O

Of all the people.

Gabe. There were so many people on this train and any one of them could have helped her with the trunk ... but Gabe? She simply stared at him for a few moments, taking the scene in ......... "Hi." She said pathetically, taking a step towards where she was going to put the trunk. She would have said that he didn't have to help her, but she knew him well enough to know that he just wanted the trunk out of the way ... "Thank you." That would have to do.

There was a distinct line forming here, which was not very orderly and was slowly driving Dot bonkers, but at least there was some reason to it. She inched her way closer to being able to put up her own things, trying to juggle a trunk that was just-slightly-too-big for her and an unruly kitten who did not want to be held.

And then the boy ahead of her mucked it all up by dropping his TWO trunks (not fair, by the way, that he had so many trunks) and helping someone else. DOT HAD PLACES TO BE, MISTER SPECTACLES. She grunted in dismay as she dropped her own trunk and climbed on top of Mr. Specs' trunk. TRUNKS, 'cause he had two, the cheaterpants.

"You almost pancaked me with your trunks. I don't want to be a pancake." She reached out and caught up one of the drawstrings of his hoodie so he couldn't get away. "That girl can carry her own trunk. You carry mine." On account of him almost pancaking her.

O_________O

Of all the people.

Gabe. There were so many people on this train and any one of them could have helped her with the trunk ... but Gabe? She simply stared at him for a few moments, taking the scene in ......... "Hi." She said pathetically, taking a step towards where she was going to put the trunk. She would have said that he didn't have to help her, but she knew him well enough to know that he just wanted the trunk out of the way ... "Thank you." That would have to do.
Clara didn't need to thank him. She just needed to help get her trunk out of the way....because Gabriel didn't want to be in here longer than what was necessary. He had some....reading to do.

...and his anxiety couldn't handle this. Nope. Quiet time was needed with a Latin book...or a Greek one. Someone to stimulate his mind and not have him panicking over the fact that everything he knew was about to change.

...Thank you very much.

No words were said. Gabriel didn't need to speak to convey he wasn't dealing with this today.

What.......?

Stares. The very small, very BOSSY girl was getting disbelieving stares.

......................"After hers."...because Clara was moving SO SLOW.......and....well, this little girl was kinda scary. O.O

Marigold made a slight "Ooof," as she tried to put her trunks where they belonged. SHE WAS TOO SHORT FOR THIS KIND OF WORK. She tried to heave it up with brute force, but, well, nothing about her really said strong, did it? So she stood back and tried a different tactic. Waiting for her arm muscles to build up.

After hers? It wasn't perfect, but at least he would get to her trunk soon. Dot released the string to his sweatshirt and settled back on her heels, hands on her hips. Job well done, second year. Mr. Specs was going to do her a solid favor and put up her trunk for her.

And she hadn't even had to poke him in his face to convince him.

"Thank you." Dot hopped off the trunks and stepped back to stand beside hers again. Carry on, Mr. Specs. She'd be waiting. "I like your glasses."

She wasn't normally a hugging person, but this was the first person she'd seen that she knew.

So a special occasion.

"Sorry for the hold up," she apologised, indicating to her trunk. "I brought a lot more books than my trunk can handle, if you seem." It was to the point that her trunk had more books in it than anything else. Totally reasonable in her opinion.

He could make it five minutes....surely...without an anxiety attack.

Naturally, Gabriel was so set on the trunk!task, that he didn't even notice Clara......or anyone else in his immediate vicinity. Not at first anyway...It was fact that he'd been seeing...and HEARING so much of that girl lately that when she did speak, it immediately caught his attention.

Gabriel froze.

His hands were suddenly clammy and cool, a sign of his further distress.

.............and she was holding everyone up.

ONLY because it was Clara, he dropped his current load and IGNORED the other girl (Cinna) to pick up the trunk. This wasn't him flirting of whatever. He was doing this to be DONE in this compartment....so that he could then run and hide....for the remainder of the train ride. Means = End.

Cinna wasn't totally trying to get Clara to move out of the way faster. Nope she wasn't. At all. It was just then the Gryffindor had stuff to do and people to see. She was helping her friend. She was. Clara helped her to pack well convinced her to pack. The fourteen year old hated packing.

She watched as the older stopped completely and turned around to hug her. In total shock because Clara didn't seem like the huggie type. Even in the short amount of time she'd known her. She hugged her back.

Books? Books. "Nah. It's fine." Heavy book and all. The root of all evil. Except the books you had to read for school. Pushing on the other end of her trunk to help out some. "I can see." She had a few sketch books in her trunk.

Well this was getting no where. Until some guy with nerd glasses showed up acting all Clark Kent with two trunks. Cinna watched as he dropped his load of trunks. And picked up Clara's trunk. Who did he think he was superman? He did have the glasses. Apparently Clara knew superman over here.

Some other girl showed up and wanted superman to carry her stuff. Okay seriously what happened to girl power. The lioness didn't need no dude to carry her stuff for her. NOPE. All she wanted to was put her trunk up and go find her friends thank you.

She huffed. "Well can someone get going here. I don't spend the whole trip on this compartment," Too many people she didn't know. And she had her stuff and could push it with ease. She was just going to pass all of them.

See ya later. Problem, Clara's trunks was blocking the way completely. So she was going to help here. Because she wanted out "Here let me help out." Dropping her trunk she took the front with Clara and lifted her trunk. Let's go let's go let's go.

Hallie sauntered through the train with her usual air of old-fashioned grace. She had one arm bent at the elbow with her wrist turned out as she walked, appearing almost snooty as she dragged her trunk behind her with the other arm.

She was determined to not think about anything: not Coral and how unsupportive she'd been all summer, not school and how she hated it there and didn't want to go spend 10 months being anxious all over again, not her parents who probably won't write again this year. Her mind was clear and focusing on simple tasks. Put your trunk away, she told herself.

Ahead she noticed a someone struggling. Hmph. She recognized the girl as a fellow Hufflepuff, but she'd never properly spoken to her.

"Would you like some help?" she inquired, stopping beside the girl and hoisting her own trunk up with little effort. Years of endlessly traveling with her parent's made her good a this specific task.

She then turned and notice the Prefect's badge on the girl blouse. Her eyes seemed to sparkle while looking at it. She didn't give the Prefect the opportunity to answer her question before she quickly changed her statement.

"Let me help you." No question, no choice. Hallie took the trunk from the girl's hands and lifted it up where it belonged.

Marigold was trying to balance the trunk on her head and push it up. She was apparently the worst height imaginable for the task at hand, but she would NOT GIVE UP. NOPE. She kept at it until she heard a girl's voice to her side asking if she needed help.

"Tha-" was out of her mouth as she prepared for a conjoined effort - maybe between the two of them, they would be successful? - but before she could even finish the word the girl had taken her trunk and hoisted it all on her own. "Thanks," she finished, eyed dropping back down to where the girl was instead of where her abundance of sparkly writing supplies was currently. The girl looked somewhat familiar... definitely from her own house.

Her own house... she was feeling protective already. It seemed like the "shiny badge that meant nothing" as she told Z actually was doing wonders for her house spirit.

"Do you need help?" she asked, not having seen the girl put her own trunk up and definitely not thinking about the fact that she herself would be no help at all. "In anything, by the way." Prefect Goldilocks is making her debut.

Halcyon gave a little half-curtsy in response to being thanked. "It's no trouble."

"Not at the moment, but I suppose if I need something you'll be the first I come to." Hallie smiled sweeter than is natural to her. She'd hadn't fully formed her plan for buttering up to the Prefects but she supposed just being nice and lovely was a start. "I had been wondering who our Prefect would be. I'm so glad to bump into you." She offered her hand.

"I think I've seen you around but I don't recall your name. I'm Halcyon, but Hallie, really." She curtsied again, this time in full. "Enchanted to meet you."
