Don’t apologize.” He paused, wondering if Ilya’s hair changed on his own whim or if it had to do with what kind of mood the boy was in. A question fit for the books indeed as he was mindful that perhaps the other boy could feel uncomfortable by all the questions that people could ask him about his ability.
Noah shared Kimmie’s sentiments once more. “Agreed. Join us. Plus I have plenty of snacks to share and I doubt Kimmie and I could finish them but I think we have a pretty good shot between the three of us,” he said as he unzipped his backpack to reveal all the goods that he had procured along with a couple of rice cakes that his mum had made.
Now.. was he excited for the school year? “Yes though to be honest – I’m a little nervous too. Brand new school, new house to get sorted in… but at least the people I’ve met have all been pretty welcoming.” They all had been polite and quite civil – besides, he had already made a couple of friends in Diagon Alley. Now the unknown factor of what house he’d fall into was the worrisome thought plaguing his mind. "And you guys?" Quote:
Originally Posted by Fireheart Avalon had never been more excited to get back to Hogwarts. She usually enjoyed her time at home, but this summer had been more than boring. With both of her siblings traveling, she was stuck at home, by herself, with her parents. Don't get her wrong, she loved her parents. But spending several weeks straight with them in their Notting Hill townhouse was a little more "togetherness" than she preferred.
After boarding the train, she spent a few minutes wandering the halls, keeping an eye out for a compartment to join. Passing by a group of students that looked to be about her age, she decided to poke her head in. "Mind if I join you?" Avalon asked with a smile, shifting her bag to her other shoulder. She had packed way too many belongings for the train ride. Did she really need a new outfit and a pair of boots to change into? For some reason, it sounded like a good idea when she was packing last night. "Everywhere else is full of first years," she added, somewhat jokingly. Not that she had a problem with first years. She actually quite enjoyed getting to know them and helping them around Hogwarts. But she also wanted to hang out with some people her own age. And she didn't think she had seen these students around before. Maybe it'd be a good opportunity to make some new friends. Quote:

But then he confirmed he was a metamorphagus, and her mouth formed a small o. "That's so cool!" But then he sounded like he was apologizing for it, which seemed weird that he felt the need to do so. She smiled slightly at him and shook her head, "No need for apology. Is it hard to control?" She was probably prying, but she was curious. She'd never really thought about anything but positives in regards to being able to change her appearance at will.
When Ilya stated he would wait for the noise and asked if he could join them, K smiled and nodded and she scooched closer to the window to make room for both guys to join her. "The more the merrier!" She smiled at Noah as welling, hoping he was of the same mind. She settled herself comfortable against the back of her seat. "Are you both excited for the coming school year?" They were so nice trying to accommodate him and make him feel involved and welcome. Ilya took a seat on the edge of the bench, ya know, not settling in in case his purse started screeching. "Thanks," simply replying to both Kimmy and Noah for allowing him to join them. As for the question Kim had on his hair, "Yeah. A little. It's like trying to catch air." Which was why he had a transfiguration tutor during summer. "My tutor says it'll get better as I get older, though. And he said if I work on it well, I can change at will and more than just the colours of my hair and eyes." Okay, yeah, that bit made him quite proud of himself...?
Ilya fell silent when the first year came in. Wow, were they always this small and chatty? He offered the boy a small nod and a smile. It was obvious that Ilya wasn't the typical friendly boy, but he knew what politeness was and its importance in Hogwarts. Professors here were kind of jerks sometimes. So, he sat in silence for now. |
