Josh goes in for savory treats. What's the selection like?

Permalink

The pumpkin pasties are pretty savory. There's also something called Hag's Hair -- Naomi tried it; it tastes a bit like beef jerky. 

Permalink

He's never been a fan of Hag's Hair, so he buys a few frogs to go with his pasties.

Naomi eats a pumpkin pasty and a cauldron cake and investigates the Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans. She's sure that wizards have had them before and know how to recognize them, and is debating whether it's worth the effort to do the same. She tries grass, coffee, ginger, liver, cabbage, cotton, and blood.

 

"There's so much to do," she says when they're done eating. "I dunno if I want to read all my textbooks first, or explore the castle, or check out a bunch of books from the library, I bet no one does that the first day, it'll be empty."

Permalink

"You check out books, and I'll do the studying. You'll know what books Muggleborns need to learn from, but the basic stuff for our classes should be the same if we had wizard parents or not."

Permalink

"Do I get to explore the castle?"

Permalink

"No way, we can't split up! That's rule number one."

Permalink

"Can't we get more done that way?"

Permalink

"Don't get cocky, that's rule number two."

Permalink

"How many rules are there? That sounds pretty boring, just having all those rules. Can we stick to two rules, and no more?"

Permalink

"Rule number three is that I can always add more rules when I'm smart enough to think of them."

Permalink

"What happens if the rules contradict each other?"

Permalink

"Rule four, I'm always right, even if I contradict myself."

Permalink

"I think we should all get a say in these rules, since we're friends now."

Permalink

"Rule five: always have each others' backs, but not literally because that would be gross. Rule six: make sure everyone's on the same page."

Permalink

"Rules are boring, let's talk about something else. See if you got any good cards."

Permalink

"Merwyn and Summerbee, nothing too exciting."

Permalink

"Albus Dumbledore and Urg the Unclean!"

Permalink

"Dumbledore, huh? Those used to be pretty common, but they stopped making them two years back."

Permalink

"I'll trade this Gryffindor for Urg."

Permalink

"Sure!"

Naomi's almost done with her food, and the train looks like it's almost arrived.

Permalink

"Cool, we're almost there. We should get changed into our robes." 

Permalink

"Okay, Naomi can go first. We'll wait outside." 

Permalink

Naomi shoos the boys out and changes. "Alright, now I'll go out," she calls when she's done.

Permalink

"Uh, why don't we take turns?"
