"Well anyway, we should probably get on board the train soon kid" Delphi told Scorpius. "Unless you want to get in even more trouble" motioning to some important looking officials milling through the crowd of students. "Seems that the government sent some people here and are asking questions about what happened."
Delphi always tried to avoid people who asked too many questions.
"What was that about back there anyway? Where did that magic come from?" she asked Scorpius.

"What was that about back there anyway? Where did that magic come from?"
Scorpius stuck close to Delphi's side as they boarded the Hogwarts Express. They were one of the last to climb aboard, so there was a line up that had progressed while they had grown distracted in conversation. Scorpius stood in front of Delphi in the line up, shuffling his feet a couple of centimeters forward as the line slowly progressed inside. Scorpius cowered slightly at the mention of the situation with Callum and Anya. He was hesitant to paint himself as the instigator that pushed Anya over the edge, so instead he pulled the victim card out again and placed the blame fully on Anya, "It was crazy. I was trying to save my brother from her. I warned him that she was dangerous. And then she blasted us violently with this crazy blizzard that she conjured up. I had never seen anything like that in my life," Scorpius exclaimed as he tried to throw in a few horrifying shivers. He wasn't afraid to rat on Anya. If anything, she was a dangerous freak of nature who shouldn't even be going to their school. Scorpius was about to turn around to Delphi before he bumped right into a woman who had suddenly jumped directly in front of him in line, facing him.
"I'm sorry young man, but I overheard you talking about what happened in the village. Do you mind if I ask you a few more questions on the ride back to Hogwarts?" The woman spoke with desperation.
Scorpius peered up at her with a sly smile stretching across his face, "What do I get in return?" Scorpius asked the woman as they slowly began to board.
"My dear boy, if your intel is accurate to the events that took down in the village center, compensation will definitely be rewarded." The woman patted Scorpius on the shoulder in assurance before Scorpius began to tell the tale of Anya Novak and the strange magic in the village.

"I've never seen anything like that in my life"
This schoolgirl conjured up a powerful blizzard like that without a wand like it was nothing. Obviously, this girl was extremely gifted to be able to do that. However, before Delphi could press Scorpios for more information a ministry official interrupted and began to lead him away.
Annoyed, Delphi cautiously followed the two listening in on their conversation.

"Maybe. Have you already been interviewed from one of my colleagues? Where have you been when this magical storm broke out? Can you tell me something important about this happening?"
Despite the sudden tornado of questions, Dimi kept his cool, patiently waiting for the woman to finish, or rather to look like she had no more questions, at least not before it would be his turn to react to even one of them first. Well, if he was able to, that was. However, before he could have even thought about something, the student who had been addressed before, suddenly intervened, with not-so-smart words, though. Not so smart, because the ministry people were known for having no humor at all.
"Hey Bro, thanks - but now you had drawn the short straw."
"Your name was Emily, right? Emily...,""Hill. I think I'll have a short conversation with some of your teachers, Miss Hill."
"Oh shit!,"
"Miss," it was now Dimi again who intervened, yet in his charming way; not in the flirtatious but only in the polite meaning. With a smile, he went on before she could have said anything else. "We all had an eventful day, and I'm sure nothing said was meant offending." He sent a shrug in Emily's direction as if to give her the advice to not add any more. Then he turned his full attention back towards the ministry woman. "I fear that I can't give you any helpful information about what happened, but maybe one of the teachers had seen more." Dimi really didn't feel like getting interviewed himself either, but he was good at hiding emotions like that.

With the cabins beginning to meet full capacity and them not having come very far yet, Coco's anxiety got even worse. She held onto her best friend's arm, already fearing that they might get no seats at all, which was only a bad thing for her because the aisles were still crowded with people as well.
Coco was just going to quietly send some curses towards the situation in general when they both detected one cabin that looked like it had still two seats untaken. "Cami, over zer..." She stopped in the middle of the sentence, panicking, not so much because her bestie's new crush was in there too, although she had noticed that, but rather because of that ministry woman inside, obviously interviewing the students. "Shit. I don't wanna get sucked into an interview."

"Miss," "We all had an eventful day, and I'm sure nothing said was meant offending." This dude seemed to be okay. At least he helped him and tried to defuse the situation. Sirius was glad because of this and so he kept silence just like the boy's look told him to do. "I fear that I can't give you any helpful information about what happened, but maybe one of the teachers had seen more."
"Okay, I understand that you're all feeling a bit overhelmed with these situation," she now admitted in a more friendly tone. "So let me just note all of your names for the report. If one of you might remember something important later you can tell the teachers so that we can write it down later." Then she just asked everybody for their names starting with the polite guy from Durmstrang. "Have a nice day," she said to all of them before she left the section.
Everyone - Sirius, his clique and Dimitrij - obviously felt relieved. Sirius turned to his 'savior'. "So,... thanks, Dimitrij," he said. "You're a Quidditch-player? If so I might be able to return the favor at the pitch showing you some cool moves or we can just train together."

Dimi was glad when his words seemed to cause the ministry woman to calm down a bit. The last he wanted was to get into trouble just because he tent to interfere when seeing wrong and someone suffering. With a friendly smile, he gave the woman his full name; Not without having to spell it, of course. But he was even more glad when she left the section, allowing himself to breathe out a little louder and smiling at the other student.
"So,... thanks, Dimitrij,"
"Oh - Dimi is just fine," he quickly threw in before the other one went on with more words.
"You're a Quidditch-player? If so I might be able to return the favor at the pitch showing you some cool moves or we can just train together."
"Nah, I'm not into sports," Dimi replied with a shrug, then, due to the looks of disbelief upon him, especially his biceps, adding with a slight chuckle: "None of these team sports. Well, it's all cool. I didn't really do anything, so don't sweat it. Okay, if I sit down here, though?"
The female student and her friends gave him a nod, so he took a seat in the section where opposite him still would be space for two more people. The aisle was still full of students that hadn't gotten seats yet. Dimi's eyes were just about to wander back to the inside of his section when, suddenly, a familiar face outside made him pause. The girl he had almost knocked over twice already was looking right back at him. Dimi smiled at her, then cocking his head a little to silently give her to understand that she and her gothic friend were welcome to have a seat in this section too, or, at least, should allow themselves to enter and ask his seatmates.

As the lady squeezed past Cami and Coco with her notebook and quill, Cami shielded her face by looking downwards in hopes that Coco would follow suit to avoid being questioned by the flamboyant reporter. Thankfully, the reporter appeared to have gather all the information she had needed and passed by quickly. Cami peered upwards and watched the lady disappear into the next train car, sighing with relief. Yet, she lost her breath again the moment she realized that the Durmstrang boy's eyes were on her. Letting out an exasperated, nervous chuckle, Cami peered left and right just to see if he was gesturing a welcome to anyone else. Though, it didn't take her long to realize that it was indeed meant for her and Coco. Cami only hesitated for a moment longer before giving in. Sure the boy had just about knocked her flat onto her bottom in front of everyone. Though, he was irresistible and Staffan was nowhere to be found. It was only a ride back to Hogwarts, after all, and nothing more. Grabbing Coco's hand, Cami casually moved wordlessly into the cabin, her face grew pink as she was rather flushed in her infatuated, nervous state. She took a seat next to the window and tried to play things collectively cool. Yet, when she casually glanced to the side, a cheeky grin formed on her face as she discovered his eyes were still on her.
"Do I 'ave something on my face?" Cami managed to finally make words as she sweetly questioned the Durmstrang champion.

Zinnia Fog, Ministry Woman Temp-play by Hollywood Heidi
The Ministry woman accompanying the young boy happy to tell her everything made eye contact with her fellow coworkers as they moved along, each of whom shook their head, signaling that they had not had any success gathering information from other students. Perhaps they were being protective of a fellow peer. That might be the case for a few, but at least half the student body of Hogwarts? Unlikely. It was more likely they did not want to become embroiled in the investigation and the lengthy processes following or it had all happened too fast.
As they'd moved down the aisle, the woman checked each cabin, finding them full. She'd hoped for one sparsely occupied so that she could shoo out the occupants and send them to find the little remaining single-seat spots, but no luck so far.
Might as well start the discussion in the aisleway as it was unlikely they'd find a cabin even sparsely full. "So, Mr. Malfoy--" she began, but then cut off when she saw Anita, cousin of Rita, from the Daily Prophet ducking out from one cabin into the next. "Those wretched Skeeters. How does she find out about everything so quickly?" she said to her coworker before giving quiet instructions only their immediate party could hear. "Make sure none of the students tell her anything. Until we have a better idea of what is going on, this is classified." The woman looked down at Scorpius. "That goes for you, too, young man." Her eyes flicked up to Delphi, who she assumed was the person of authority escorting the boy back to the school, in the silent order for her understanding to make sure Scorpius did not speak to Anita.
The woman glanced at their surroundings, satisfied to see all the cabin doors were closed. However, that did not make them soundproof. But she wanted to get whatever information she could from him before they arrived back at Hogwarts and had to deal with the Headmaster or other Professors possibly making her job more difficult. "Now," she said, smiling down at Scorpius. "You said her name was Anya? Is that short for something? Why don't you tell me what you know about her."
If what she was theorizing was correct, this girl couldn't be older than a first year. It'd be amazing if she'd even made it to that age in the first place. Amazing, but not impossible, as history had shown.

"Oh - Dimi is just fine," So Dimi, he made himself a mental note. "Nah, I'm not into sports," Of course, all were looking at him in disbelief. To be honest Dimi's outward appearance had been the reason why he had offered him to go to the pitch together. "None of these team sports. Well, it's all cool. I didn't really do anything, so don't sweat it. Okay, if I sit down here, though?" Everyone just nodded.
Sirius has to admit that he was a bit curious how life at Durmstrang might be. But he wasn't sure if it may sound a little strange when a girl would ask some of the questions he had in his mind. Nevertheless he decided to try starting a conversation. But at that very moment he noticed that Dimi was watching at someone. Sirius couldn't see who it was because he was sitting directly opposite from the Durmstrang guy. But it looked like if he tried to invite someone to sit down next to them. After all there were still two seats left. Finally the person in Sirius' back had decided to come over. But it was not just one. It were two persons: Cami, the beauty he had a little crush on, and her bestie Coco, the girl he had have some strange situations with during their trip. Why these two of all people?
Sirius did his best to stay cool and relaxed. He just gave them a short nod. He might not be the best one when it came to interpret someone's behavior but he was very sure that Cami seemed to have a crush on Dimi or at least tried to flirt with him. Dash it all! He wished she would have looked at him the same way she did at Dimi! And suddenly he realized that often when you thought it couldn't become more bad it became the worst. This was gonna be an awkward train ride...

Staffan had kept himself at a distance, mostly because he wanted to watch her from afar. She was something special but she was also competition and he had to be careful. He kept in time with conversation and smiled but listened mostly and then she just vanished. Spending time with his boys and asking their advise on what he should do. They were no help what so ever....
"Do I 'ave something on my face?" Staffan stepped into the train car with a smile, leaning against the door.
"Only the most beautiful smile granted by the gods themselves." He closed the door behind and found a spot beside her, "May I?" But he did not sit and would not until given permission. If this were his brothers, they would have scoffed at him for being such a gentlemen. Telling him he should just take what he wanted but that was not his way.

Hogwarts champion, she could potentially be a Hogwarts champion for the Tri-wizard. The competition was fierce and damn they were cool and she was just lukewarm at best. Dray always had high confidence but this was the Tri-wizard and it was a big deal for not only the school but for Hufflepuff's everywhere.
Dray sat alone in a train car, waiting for Ellie and strumming her guitar. She was doing her best to avoid the reporters but she knew eventually they'd find her. She strummed 'A Boy Named Diggory' and spoke very softly to the air. "Hey Cedric, I could really use the essence of your spirit right now, man. I know things didn't work out for you but you stood up to the dark lord and didn't think twice. I need some of that right now." This might have been weird to some people but not to people like Dray. Cedric Diggory was a hero and Hufflepuff warriors believed he truly watched over them during times like these. She believed in him with her whole heart and knew he would guide her.

Darleena was still salty about not winning champion, but she could do nothing about it. All she could do was support her school's champion and give the girl a bit of confidence- cause she needed it right now. Darleena had been leaning against the door, listening to Dray mope and talk to that dead guy from like twenty years ago. She didn't understand it but she knew it was a Hufflepuff thing.
When Darleena was sure Dray was done with her little prayer. She opened the door and walked in, sliding it closed behind. "Are you going to start acting like a champion or sit in here and whine like a first-year? Or are you going to be like that stupid song you wrote and leave a mark upon these walls?" She saw a huge smile run across Dray's face and couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"You do listen to my songs!" and then she latched on with a huge hug and Darleena groaned.
"Yes, yes- not like I can help it can I? You sing them every bloody day, get off!" But she made no motion to push Dray off her. Sighing she patted her back and sighed, "okay, listen, you have to show these outsiders who you are. You can't just hideaway, you have to think about all the possibilities ahead."

Dimi really had been just friendly when he'd offered these two girls a seat in their cabin, yet how could he miss the beauty of her? He was surprised, though, when she pointed out that he was still looking at her. Wow, had it been that obvious?
"Do I 'ave something on my face?"
Dimi was not a shy person, or one who would blush even, so, instead, he came up with a light chuckle, just about to apologize or maybe even add a flirty comment, just out of fun, of course, when, suddenly, another person entered their section.
"Only the most beautiful smile granted by the gods themselves."
It was his Durmstrang fellow, the one who would attend in the Tournament with him. Dimi gave him a short wave with his hand before his eyes were wandering back to the girl opposite him for a short moment, and then, lastly, in the window's direction.
"May I?" he heard Staffan asking her to have a seat right next to her.

Coco had allowed her friend to guide her into the section without any resistance. A crowded aisle with ministry people walking by, going to get an interview out of every student they got a grip on, was simply worse than a crowded section. When she spotted Emily, though, she was not so sure anymore. Well, that girl-- boy.. or whatever - none of her business - was alright, but their last conversation had been rather... difficult and awkward. However, Coco preferred to act as if nothing had happened, so she gave her/him a short nod of her head before quickly taking a seat next to Cami. It was only then that she recognized the Durmstrang boy sitting right opposite of them. A short giggle could be seen on Coco's face, although she did her best to be discreet.
"Do I 'ave something on my face?"
Oh Cami, you smartly thing. Coco was curious for the answer, to say the least, especially since that started with a light chuckle, when, suddenly, someone else - and not only someone but candidate number one on Cami's list - was entering the section as well. Oh boy, where's the popcorn?
"Only the most beautiful smile granted by the gods themselves."
Coco exchanged a glance with Emily opposite her, actually only accidentally, but when their eyes met, she had to express her inner urge to gag at least to somebody. Yah, Coco was no fan of Ken for some reason. Maybe it was the fact that she didn't believe in this love-at-first-sight thing that made her not buy it. Also, he had caused her to feel bad only a while ago.
"May I?"
She threw a short side-glance over at Cami, obvious that she didn't think of this to be the best situation she could get in, but didn't say a word and, instead, left the decision to her best friend.

"Now," "You said her name was Anya? Is that short for something? Why don't you tell me what you know about her."
Scorpius nodded, with fantasies of prize money and all the chocolate frogs in the world dancing around in his head as he gladly gave away intel to the woman from the Ministry, " Her name is Anastasia. Anastasia Novak," Scorpius felt the urge to hurl as he mentioned her full, atrocious name. Delphi and the people around them continued to stare as he spoke to the woman, their ears leaning in as Scorpius ran his mouth a little more, "Like me, she apparently only just started at Hogwarts this year so I don't know much, though she seems to be the same age as my other brother. Only a good deal about her parents dying in a house fire, leaving her to be a sad little orphan. She's a thief and a liar, and now apparently a dangerous force to be reckoned with." Scorpius shook his head in complete shock, acting like an innocent victim while everyone else surrounding him took the information in. This will show you not to mess with me or my family, Anya, Scorpius thought to himself as a sinister look shadowed over his concerned complexion.

"Only the most beautiful smile granted by the gods themselves." "May I?"
Cami's head snapped upwards at the familiar voice of the Prince, "Mon chéri," She gasped slightly, her breath taken away by his surprise entrance. Nothing had been going on between her and the other Durmstrang, so she had nothing to fear. And yet she still felt slightly flustered as her cheeks grew warm, tinted with a rosy pink color. Cami wasn't sure if it was because she hadn't expected to see Staffan again so soon after their bittersweet date, sweeping her off of her feet just to compete against her shortly. Or if it was because she not only had the attention of one Durmstrang champion, but two. And yet, here Staffan was, so sweet and perfect in every way. Looking up at him, she was glad to see him and with a warm smile and nod, Cami invited Staffan in to sit with them as she moved over to the window even further and patted the space that remained between her and the other Durmstrang boy.

And the level of awkwardness still could rise higher and higher. Another Durmstrang-dude entered the cabin - and instead of Dimi he answered Cami's question. "Do I 'ave something on my face?" "Only the most beautiful smile granted by the gods themselves." Sirius recognized Coco's glance. There was a slight sign that she was amused about the situation but also a bit annoyed. Surely she didn't really like the new incomer. If Sirius remembered right his name was... Staffan. A prince, right? But who cares?! His status won't be important for the upcoming tournament! But maybe it was important for Cami? Perhaps she was impressed and felt flattered because a prince obviously was interested in her...
Suddenly Sirius felt like he needed some fresh air or at least just to get out of the cabin. If he was honest to himself he already had known that this beautiful girl won't be his' but yet it somehow felt bad watching her being surrounded by theese two manly men who also seemed to be attracted by her. So he stood up abrupt and looked around at all the others. "Hey, I'm going to see if I can get some chocolate - anybody else want some sweets?" Actually it was just a mandatory question, he didn't expect someone to give an answer. His clique complete shook their heads.

For the first time, Staffan realized who else was in the car. "Ah, Dimi, brother- sorry I got a bit of tunnel vision." Staffan took his seat and then turned his attention to Coco with a smile, "and Miss Coco-"
"Hey, I'm going to see if I can get some chocolate - anybody else want some sweets?" And someone he had not met before, he gave her a smile.
"No thank you, miss." Staffan and Cami both got their fill of sweets during the trip.
"Have the reporters found you yet, Dimi? Or have you been avoiding them?" Staffan had done his best to hide from them. Wanting a more controlled environment for questioning.

Shane was suddenly jolted awake at the sound of the train's horn. Scarlet's cheek was resting on his shoulder, still sound asleep. The train ride had been smooth up until this point, so rubbing his eyes with his free hand he peered around the train car to determine how far along they were into their travel. It seemed as if he had only fallen asleep for a good ten minutes or so, and that there was still quite a bit of travel time left. Looking down at Scarlet, Shane managed to wiggle his shoulder carefully away from underneath her as she shifted away from him in her sleep. "I'll be back," Shane whispered to his friend as he felt the need to stretch his legs. Exiting the train car, he quietly brought it to a close behind him as he began to go for a little walk. Most of the students in the train had been tuckered out from the big trip, though he did pass by one train car that appeared to be rather lively with a young blonde boy giving a play by play of what had happened in the middle of the village. Shane couldn't be bothered much with the details, especially as he spotted the candy trolley up ahead.

Morgana had tried to take a nap on the train ridge back to school. Sherlock's inviting arm that had wrapped around her shoulders was comfortable, and yet her mind still ran around in circles. The muffled voice of a young boy in the neighboring train car seemed to grow loud, intruding into their space. Squeezing her eyes shut, Morgana let out an annoyed whine as her eyes flashed open in frustration, "What I'd give for that little squirt next door to shut up," Morgana complained out loud, "Can you hear anything he's saying, Sherlock?" Morgana asked, peering upwards at her friend who remained closely beside her.

No one wanted to accompany him. He was glad in truth. No need for another arkward situation today, already had enough! So Sirius left the cabin and tried to make his way to the candy trolly. Well, at least he hoped he'd be on the right way because at the moment he had no clue where to find it. Besides the whole train was still overcrowded. He didn't look up to recognize people. No need to have another dialouge with someone from the Ministry. He hoped they'd let him pass without asking questions again. Suddenly he realized the candy trolly. Finally something good today! "Hey, wait a minute, please," he called out to the waitress. "I really need some sweets now!" Sirius looked at the selection. He especially fell for all the chocolate. For some minutes he was so occupied in choosing some sweets that he almost forgot everything and everybody around him. Who wanted to be in an overcrowded train when he had the possibility to imagine he'd be in chocolate-heaven?!

Sherlock recognized that Morgana had tried to find some rest but now was disturbed by someone from the neighbour cabin. He also heard the angry voice of a boy. "What I'd give for that little squirt next door to shut up," For a moment he wondered if the boy would stop if he went over and ask him politely. But he guessed that it wouldn't work. Sadly many people became even louder when you asked them to be quiet.
"Can you hear anything he's saying, Sherlock?" He tried to pick up a few scraps of conversation. "Anastasia Novak [...] started at Hogwarts this year [...] parents dying in a house fire [...] thief and a liar [...] dangerous force [...]" "I... am not sure," he answered after a moment. "I have heard the name Anastasia. That is the girl who is new at Hogwarts if I remember right. It sounds like someone - a younger one due to the sound of his voice - tries to blame her for, well, her past and maybe for what had been going on at Hogsmeade."
Sherlock realized only now that he had still his arm around Morgana's shoulders. He gently released her and stood up. "To be honest, I am not sure if this is a good idea but I am going to find out what is really happening over there. I could not accept that someone tries to blame a schoolmate!," he told her, a serious and resolute look on his face.

Coco wanted to shake her head about Cami's relapse into princey-pie but was able to get a hold of herself last minute. On the other hand, she might not even have noticed. Coco couldn't actually say what it was that she disliked about him; Probably this feeling of him not being good enough for her. She knew nothing about that other Durmstrang guy, either, but maybe it was just that. Coco had always felt that way about any guy who came close to her best friend in such a short time, sometimes acting as if being jealous, but that was not it. Cami was just the most important person in her life, so Coco wanted only the very best for her. Guys who fell so quickly, and then referring to nothing but her beauty, had never felt like the very best. While Cami had only eyes for Staffan again, Coco threw a look over at the other Durmstrang dude, sitting across from them. He didn't seem jealous or even interested in the poor sobstuff they performed, although she could swear that he'd looked at her in a flirty way before.
"Hey, I'm going to see if I can get some chocolate - anybody else want some sweets?" suddenly, Emily was breaking into her thoughts, turning her attention away from that sweet muscle dude.
Coco would have liked nothing better than chocolate right now, seriously, but she was too overwhelmed with everything around her. The aisle still seemed crowded with people, yet this section started, too. Also, her last conversation with Emily had turned out rather awkward, so Coco didn't know if it would be a good idea to say yes. And then she had thought about it too long anyway.
"No thank you, miss.""Have the reporters found you yet, Dimi? Or have you been avoiding them?"
Oh, great. And now she was stuck in a section with a love triangle, or at least something weird. Happy riding... Coco turned her face towards the window and watched the trees and clouds passing by.

"Have the reporters found you yet, Dimi? Or have you been avoiding them?"
Suddenly being addressed, Dimi turned his attention away from the window and back to the inside of the car. He gave Staffan a toneless chuckle. "I was actually dumb enough to approach them myself. Guess I should stop playing hero," he said with no sign of arrogance but only trueness and slight amusement about it. Most of the time, he would not recommend that inner urge. "How 'bout you?" Dimi then asked with a casual nod, rather out of decency since he didn't really have a conversation with Staffan yet, except for congratulations about their pick in the tournament.

Zinnia Fog, Ministry Woman Temp-play by Hollywood Heidi
The boy was very naive and very compliant. With easy promises of chocolates and thoughts of fame amongst the halls of the Ministry, she would get to the bottom of the event and who had been the cause of it in no time.
"Her name is Anastasia. Anastasia Novak,"
The look of disgust that only the young can conjure with such visual exaggeration made it clear that Scorpius had already had some form of personal vendetta against this Anastasia Novak. Subtly taking in the lack of looks or reactions of those listening in, the woman easily confirmed there were no disagreements as to who had been at the center. The others did not conjure any looks of disgust on their features, nor did anyone come to her defense. They seemed merely curious and unattached to this Anya girl, which gave her the sense that the girl kept mostly to herself with perhaps only a small handful of friends; ones who felt it was better to stay silent and listen in as much as was possible, or simply, they were out of earshot.
"Like me, she apparently only just started at Hogwarts this year so I don't know much, though she seems to be the same age as my other brother. Only a good deal about her parents dying in a house fire, leaving her to be a sad little orphan. She's a thief and a liar, and now apparently a dangerous force to be reckoned with."
That was a such a massive bomb of dramatic and personal information that most of the students had looked over with wide-eyed surprise, momentarily forgetting about pretending to not be listening. After they took a moment to digest it, they returned to the pretending but the woman sensed they were listening even closer than before. The woman lowered her voice now, steering Scorpius and his adult supervisor down the hallway a bit, more toward the closed cabins and away from so many ears piled into the open seating, now listening more intently than before.
Letting their conversation be overheard had been a tactical move that she'd hoped would encourage others to speak up but the woman felt a tad guilty now for the news of Anastasia being orphaned by the loss of her parents in a house fire becoming common knowledge to her schoolmates. She logged away the whole thief and liar aspect and would touch on that later, assuming they might have been the exaggerations of someone who clearly had a personal vendetta.
Past records would be a big help, so the woman first leaned on that. "Do you know what school she transferred from?" Despite the 'like me' addition, the woman's mind made the only logical conclusion that Anastasia had merely been a transfer from another magical school and that this was her first year at Hogwarts.

Shane slowed his steps as he caught up to the candy trolley, and as he raised a single finger to begin to speak his lips suddenly froze before any words could come out as someone else interjected from the other side of the cart.
"Hey, wait a minute, please," "I really need some sweets now!"
Shane felt a clamminess encase his face as his complexion turned as white as a sheet. The very person he had been avoiding was right there, on the other side of the trolley. "Emily, I...," Shane's voice shook with surprise as he wasn't sure what to say. He knew that he would face her eventually, but wasn't as prepared in this moment as he wanted to be. Bowing his head, he deliberately diverted his eye contact downwards, "...You go first." Shane said in an apologetic manner, allowing the lady to place her bon bon order before him.

"To be honest, I am not sure if this is a good idea but I am going to find out what is really happening over there. I could not accept that someone tries to blame a schoolmate!,"
Morgana nodded. Stretching her arms out wide beside her, she rolled her neck from side to side as to give it any kind of relief from the crammed position she had been attempting to nap in. If anyone could find out what was going on, she knew Sherlock would find out quickly. So not finding any sort of reason to tag along, she was okay with staying behind in their train car of solitude.
"Don't be too long on the case, detective, I may need my head rest back soon." Morgana chuckled into an uncontrollable yawn, watching her friend exist to the hall of the train. Once he vanished, she slowly turned her head to peer out the window at the moving, wintry landscape.

Delphi carefully shadowed Scorpius and the government woman, just enough to hear their conversation.
"She's a thief and a liar, and now an apparently dangerous force to be reckoned with."
Former child thief? Orphan? Dangerous? This Novack girl sounded more and more like Delphi's kind of scum, and made a mental note to introduce herself to her later on.

"No thank you, miss."
Cami fell into silent agreement with Staffan's stance on the matter of candy, politely shaking her head in a negative fashion as she sported a sweet half grin. Gently weaving her tiny arm around Staffan's, her fingertips grasped gently onto Staffan's bicep as she quietly observed the conversation between the two Durmstrang boys.
"Have the reporters found you yet, Dimi? Or have you been avoiding them?" "I was actually dumb enough to approach them myself. Guess I should stop playing hero," "How 'bout you?"
The boys remained casual as they chatted amongst themselves. Cami didn't dare to flicker her gaze in Coco's direction, yet she felt her eyes on the three of them. She would later have to ask Coco on her observations and takeaways from the intriguing situation that grew rich with many people and many emotions. Cami gave Staffan's arm a light squeeze, making it known that she was still present without uttering much of a peep and continued to take a backseat in the conversation.
