spaceCallum arrived at the Station to pick up the new batch of first years for their journey to the school. As always, he made note of his physical presence, trying to present an aura of approachable and kind, while still looking like someone you wouldn't want to make angry. Children, after all, could be troublemakers, and he wanted to be sure that none of them thought to cause problems for him. But, at the same time, they were just kids. He didn't want to scare them. People tended to be afraid of him, and it was no one's fault but his own. Still, he had a job to do. Magically amplifying his voice, he called out,"Attention! First year students! Make your way over towards me, please, so that we can start heading to the castle!"
spaceAs the small group began to form around him, he smiled."Evening! My name is Callum Murdoch, I'll be escorting you to Hogwarts Castle. Everyone needs to stay close to me. You'll have plenty of time to explore the castle and grounds,"which did not include the village, obviously, but he didn't figure it'd do him any favors to mention that,"once the school year is underway. For now, you need to stick with me so we can get you sorted and fed."Hopefully, the lure of food would keep them from acting up. A few kids had tried to sneak off here and there, and he wasn't keen on chasing down an eleven year old. He'd like to keep his job, thanks.

Ivar, while he did appreciate Glynn's dry sense of humor, he could not help but roll his eyes when he decided to snark at him over it turned out that "Ivar was actually the one pushing sixties." Hell, back in the Express, Drew even laughed at him and called him a "hypocrite" for that, because he was the one who was starting the "Grandpa Glynn" joke since... first year? And yet here he was, being an uncle and his niece was just four years younger than him that it was ridiculous.
As the three of them hopped off the train, Drew and Ivar stepped down wearing their school robes. "You got to go and meet people your age, Drew. You first years are going to boats, me and Glynn here aren't."
"'Kay," Drew rolled her eyes, as if she was resigned to the fact that everybody's treating her like a baby. "Of course I'm doing that. Bye, onkel Ivar!" She waved at him teasingly and ran off to a bunch of first years.
Ivar made a face every time Drew called him "Uncle" because he was very used to her using the first-name basis. He looked at Glynn with an dry unimpressed face and said, "I hope you're happy now, because she's never gonna live this joke down." Of course, he's obviously joking, their whole circle of friends were perfectly aware that Ivar was good at jokes when he's in a good mood. It's like everything's going back to normal now, he would hope so. "By the way, mate, have you heard of Tiernan lately? I heard that she and Alby are a thing lately. You know, Di's vice captain in the Music Club?" To be honest, he was quite impressed that Tiernan was the first to ever have a love life, if that were ever true. Or not, because technically Arnie and Ollie had been dating since... last year or whatever. Whatever, that Irish better be nice or he'll whack him with a beater bat big time.

Galen stepped off the train, after spending the majority of it just hanging out with Theo and Aine and making a slight dent in the treats that Theo had brought with him. He knew Theo was also passing out snacks to everyone that came across their cabin, which resulted in the bag he had being considerably lighter than when they had gotten onto the train. Galen had facepalmed, but he couldn't stop his cousin really. After all, he was pretty sure that might have been how Rose made as many friends as she did in school. In any case, as they stepped off the train, Galen looked around as he stepped off to the side, sure that if nothing else, he didn't want to get in the way of everyone getting off. He crossed his arms and slouched, waiting for Theo at least and wondering how they were getting to the school. Rose had mentioned some kind of carriages with dead horses, but that couldn't be right, right? He couldn't get Nell to tell a straight answer either, which resulted in him huffing in annoyance and figuring that if zombie horses were how they actually got to the school, he was definitely going to bring a baseball bat to school next year. Just to be safe, mind.
When Theo joined him, Galen opened his mouth to say something when he heard some guy yell for first years. Galen immediately started looking for six year olds, only to recall that he was supposed to be a first year. Snorting, he looked toward Theo and rolled his eyes."First year my butt. I'm a sixth grader, thank you. Guess that answers my question about how we're getting to the school though."He gave a wave toward Aine and then proceeded toward the tall dark man, who he wondered if he was somehow related to one of his neighbours back home. That guy also had the tall, dark, and menacing aura down pat too.

Theo had spent the train ride with his sister and his cousin... and occasionally various other people that would pop in. Apparently word had gotten around that he'd made snacks and was giving them out to people! Of course, he didn't mind sharing, as that was the whole idea behind his having saved up all his allowances for a year to make special snacks. As the train ride drew long, he began yawning, as the slow, rocking motion of the train lulled him into a sleepy state. Finally, the train slowed to a stop and Theo bid goodbye to his new owl, then hurried off the train after Galen. He hadn't yet released his grip on his bag of snacks, but he figured he didn't want to miss anyone! Besides, the bag fit in his biggest pocket when he folded it up nice.
As they got off the train, he looked around at all the people crowding around. This school was certainly not for the shy! The Greek perked his ears up when Galen grumbled about First Years versus Sixth Graders, which was understandable. He then said it answered his question about getting to the school, and Theo lifted an eyebrow, wondering when he'd asked such a question. "According to Hogwarts, A History, first years... er... sixth graders like us are supposed to take boats across the lake. But that guy's calling for all of us, so we better get over there before we get left here!" He grinned, offering his cousin a brownie while he absentmindedly munched on a cookie. He walked over to the man who was giving them directions, listening to him say that they had to stick together, and could explore later. Hopefully, Theo thought, later meant another day, as it was getting pretty late. Besides, even though he'd been eating snacks most of the day, he was getting pretty darn hungry!
{{Feel free to say your charrie got snacks from Theo! He's offering them out for free!}}

Darcy turned her head at the sound of a voice seeming to be close to her and her eyes met with a boy her age, her eyes going wide, She pointed to herself, and as he continued speaking she lowered her hand and smiled at him "Darcy" she said happily, a bright smile that parted her lips and reveiled her teeth on her face "you're a first year?" she said as a question even though it was meant more of assertion "that's great!" she said, about to say more when a guy took center stage of her attention, she quickly turned her head to look over at the teacher, Callum Murdoch...he kinda seemed mean, but maybe its because he looked super serious. Darcy looked up at the guy and tilted her head, she couldn't tell which one it is, but instead she just smiled up at him for a moment before looking back at Ferdie "Do you know what type of food we're gonna get?" she asked him.
Ferdie had been about to say someting but a tall darker skinned man called for the first years to gather he folowed Darcy making sure to keep nearby. Darcy then asked about food. That he did know about, it was the one bit off information he was given. "My dad told me not to eat a lot on the train because there was a big feast. Though I did keep two chocolate frogs. You can have one just don't open it here they are jumpy and it hard to catch them here." He said partly hoping the frogs where new knowledge for her. He would feel silly if his assumption was off. Though it wouldn't be the first time for him.
This is it, boys, this is war- what are we waiting for? Why don't we break the rules already? I was never one to believe the hype Save that for the black and white! I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked But here they come again to jack my style

Drew finally broke away from Ivar, casually walking with the crowd as she turned her head left and right. It was a bit difficult to find Liz and Gi-Seung from here, and the fact that Laili and Elvira won't be here until next year made Drew feel sad. But then again, she could not have everything, she learned that the hard way. Sure, the fact that her dad was finally dating Elvira's dad was kind of okay now, though the fact that they're seeing someone now was weirder now that it was happening. Sure, she really didn't like her mum being... selfish, but that didn't mean Drew's siblings were going to like that. Especially Dagrun as far as sisters can go. It's so weird, maybe because it was as if that Drew should be mad at her dad for, what, finding someone new? As though it was mandatory. But she wasn't, not anymore, because she just despise her ex-mum (and of course, for dad's case, hiding the fact to Drew and her siblings about the divorce was forgiven but not forgotten).
God, why was she even thinking about these things? Rolling her eyes at herself, she shoved her hands on her robes' pockets as she hummed a certain tune and followed Mr. Murdoch as well as the crowd. Taking a strip of chewing gum from her pocket and taking it, in hopes of distracting herself. Drew was supposed to be happy here, not moping over something... sad. She didn't want that for herself, so she continued to look for someone to talk with.

My heart is breaking for my sister and the con that she called "love" When I look into my nephew's eyes, man, you wouldn't believe- The most amazing things that can come from some terrible lie. The other night, you wouldn't believe, the dream I just had about you and me. I called you up but we'd both agree, it's for the best you didn't listen. It's for the best we get our distance, oh, it's for the best you didn't listen.
Barry had spent the train ride with a bunch of boring first years, though he just entered the compartment, asked if he could stay, then slept through the ride when they said yes. Look, he was a bit sleepy, because he stayed up all night playing a video game. Well, he had to, because Barry won't be playing more once he went to Hogwarts.
He was scanning the crowd through tired brown eyes when he spotted a certain guy who was just there. Scrutinizing people like some psychic. Hah, who was he kidding? As far as Ibarra was concerned, Akira has kind of a smartass that he thought that social skills are "overrated." "Hey, mate." He waved at him with a sleepy wave, "What's up? Din't think 'bout looking for mates, spent the train ride dozin' because I stayed up last night playin' video games like there's no tomorrow. 'Cause you know, no techs in a Magic school." He managed to roll his eyes, looking at heaven as if the fact that he's a wizard and not a squib was totally unfair. Stupid dominant magical powers...

Glynn stepped off the train with Ivar and Drew, bemused that Ivar was complaining about the joke that he had told. It was a lot better than the names he had been called over the years, and for the first time in what felt like forever, he actually felt normal. Or what passed for normal in his life. He was definitely going to remember that he wasn't the same person from first year, and if nothing else, he wasn't going to be that person again. Taking a moment to compose himself, he waved at Drew as she made her way toward where the first years were gathering and took a look around the platform properly. Even he had to admit, he hadn't quite been in the right state of mind to actually take in the platform properly, and it definitely showed when he spotted what was pulling the carriages.
Blinking, he just filed it away for later and turned toward Ivar when his friend mentioned that Drew wasn't going to let it go and then asked if he'd heard from Tiernan lately. He hadn't actually, but part of that was because he'd been in and out of therapy all summer, and he was certain that if Tiernan had sent an owl, he probably missed it in between everything else."Well, maybe it's good for you to get a bit of a ribbing every now and then. I haven't heard from Tiernan though. I didn't know she and Alby were seeing each other though. I probably missed it with everything else going on. And yes, I am perfectly aware of who Alby is. We do share a dorm together, after all."He glanced around to see if maybe he could spot the dark-haired pair or not, but he couldn't quite. Not that he wasn't tall enough to look over the crowds, no, he'd found out that he was starting to become tall like his living family tended to be.

Emma got ready early and made sure she ate breakfast. Afterwards all of her books and supplies were packed along with Edgar in his cage. Her parents made sure they were there to say their goodbyes, promises to write and sent packages and money if she needed it. There was also hugs and tears from her mother. Edgar chirped in his cage as a goodbye noise. Once the bags were on the train, she climbed on and found a compartment with the less people as possible.
As the train ride seemed rather long, she got back off to see Callum calling for attention. She did indeed come closer to hear what he had to say. Once he was done, she nodded and proceeded to follow when told to. Food on the other hand wasn't a bad idea.

Akira looked over as he saw Ibarra approach, an eyebrow cocking as he noticed the other boy's sleepy wave. Well, at least he wasn't the only one that had been bored. Though, he did snort as Barry mentioned no tech in wizard school, which had the tech-minded boy to remember he hadn't been living in a non-magical area for a while, and Akira was just about fed up with it."At least you were able to do something other than stare at your game system and wish you could play something. Mine's been collecting dust in my room because hey, the moment I try and use it at home, it'll short. Didn't have to take the train since, you know, my house is right down the way."He had to admit, he did have to thank his aunt and uncle for that. Clay and Denise hadn't seen the sense in sending him all the way to London to catch a train that would bring him back. That would have been highly inefficient and absolutely useless.
He looked over at the man who was calling for first years, however, and looked toward Barry."SO I'm guessing that big, dark, and scary's the guy taking us to the school? Think he eats kids for breakfast or something, or it's just an act he puts up? I'm willing to bet it's the latter rather than the former."

Callista rolled her eyes at his question; she wasn't going to dash up and down the corridor like some mother hen gathering up chicks. "No es mi problema." If someone needed somewhere to sit, they'd find them, unless they were a complete moron. The train ride passed quickly enough; Diego was almost annoyingly friendly and easygoing, but she could hardly insult him to his face over it. And it was nice to be able to speak Spanish for a while However, she was tired and not in the best of moods by the time they reached the station, and so, stalking off the train and in the direction the other first years were headed, was quick to recognize two familiar boys. "Conozco a esos dos. Puedes venir si quieres." The blonde made her way over, hands on her hips as she looked from Ibarra to Akira. "Well, well, well. What a surprise to see you two here," she greeted them sarcastically. "Gossiping about the keeper of the keys, are we?" At least, she assumed that was what the man at the head of the crowd's function was. "My summer was dreadful, by the way, thank you for asking."

By the time the sun had slunk down below the horizon and the train had arrived in Hogsmeade, Finny was of the tentative opinion that she didn't mind Celeste Kinsley, although her thoughts on her twin were still a bit conflicted. She hadn't felt any instant spark of friendship or camaraderie with the other girl- they were too similar, at least in that they were both quiet and clearly thought before they spoke- but the conversation had gone on easily enough and there hadn't been any moments of tension or contention between the two. Finny had almost hoped Celeste might be the opposite of her brother, but she wasn't exactly the same, at least, so that would have to be enough. She wouldn't have wanted to be stuck in a boat with two Sorins, but Celeste seemed to like her, so... "If you think he wouldn't mind," she said slowly. "I don't want to.. You two seem very close, is all. But if you think it'd be alright with him as well..." It was cold and she was a bit sleepy and very hungry. At this point she barely cared who she took a boat with, she just wanted to get to the presumably warmer castle. The Sorting was barely on her mind; her parents wouldn't care where she ended up, if they hadn't really minded Chrys being in Gryffindor.

Madoc was annoyed, which wasn't unusual, but at least he wasn't really angry at the moment. He'd been kind of pissed off at the platform, because it was so crowded and no one knew how to walk properly and it was so loud and he hated trains- and anyways Treva had dragged him off to a compartment before he really went off, and they'd just sat there in silence for a good hour while she drew pentagrams on her hand or whatever she usually did. Eventually she'd wandered off to roam the train and not come back, and so he'd gotten off alone. Expression set in his usual resting glower, he joined the other first years, sizing up his year-mates. Someone bumped into him, causing him in turn to jostle into the girl beside him, and when he whirled to see who'd done it, was met with a sea of innocent faces. Exhaling sharply in irritation, he turned back to the girl, muttered, "Sorry," and impatiently craned his neck to see where they were going. At least he had his height on his side.

"Exploring the castle and the grounds? Absolutely," agreed Faina, smiling at the prospect of doing so. It was exactly what she had in mind to do when the chance presented itself. She sincerely doubted anyone would get expelled for exploring a forest, especially if it were on school grounds. She figured the whole 'Forbidden Forest' bit was a ruse to keep people out, and likely it was some 'rite of passage' to venture in there. "If we're getting detentions or docked points, we'd best be sure its for a good cause, or, better still, we don't get caught."
Time Skip
Faina got changed into school clothes at some point in the trip. She ended up dressed in a pleated knee-length blue-grey plaid skirt, and long-sleeved dress shirt with a plain black school tie, a bluish-gray sweater layered over the shirt and matching knee socks, while a pair of simple dark brown leather loafers were on her feet. Not for the first time, she felt more than a bit guilty getting to dress this nicely for school when her little sister wouldn't get that chance. When she tried the outfit on, Katya told her at the time how pretty she looked and wished she could look the same; Faina wished the opposite in return, knowing and not saying how their lives might have been so much easier had she been born with blonde hair and blue eyes like her sister.
It was distinctly chillier at Hogsmeade than it had been in London, and it was already past dark when they arrived. When they got down from the train onto the platform, Faina took care to make sure her newfound friend was with her. When she heard the large man call out for the First Years to join him, Faina held out her hand for Rhett to take. "My turn," she said lightly, with a bit of a smile. "After all, we don't want to get separated so close to the start of our journey."
