Platform 9 3/4

[Raven]

"No, they move on their own. First years take boats across the lake, the rest of them take the carriages because its faster, and they're supposed to be there when we get there," Evangeline explained. "I read about it." She took her bags outside and left them in the pile she saw accumulating. "See you later, Nero."

Lynn finally managed to get farther down the train, but her hair was a timid grey-color and her eyes were getting paler blue by the second. There were so many people, all trying to get out. Her eyes were wide when she ran into another girl about her age. (I'm thinking Andrea...)

"Come on, Nezza, let's catch a carriage. We can get in with Beatrice and her friends," Jeremy said. He deliberately picked a group he knew just barely came short of filling a carriage so that Elijia couldn't come with them.

As her nerves started to calm, August began to talk like she did normally. 'Just be yourself,' she repeated to herself over and over again. She then began to speak "Or you know, the sorting hat could just want to be mean and put us all in Ravenclaw." She laughed a little.

[Gifted]

"I would have no problem with that." Tanner said, shrugging.
"that's because you're a nerd anyway!" Wesley laughed.
"I am not..." Tanner protested halfheartedly. Then the twins looked around to see where they should go.

"Oh!" Nikki sounded moderately surprised.

((literally ran into, or just found? Only I don't think Andrea would take much notice of her with the latter. And where's the gamekeeper?))

[Sar]

August looked at them and smiled "We just need to head forwards towards the boats," Her father had told her all about what to expect when she arrived. She a got a little to excited, trying to fight her impatience.

Nezza hurried along with Jeremiah, feeling that Elijia wasn't to far behind. "Come on!" she said, pushing Jeremiah forward.

[Raven]

(Literally ran into and I'm working on it I didn't have time earlier ;<<)

Balthazar Crue was by no means the giant Hagrid had been, in fact, he had to wear tall boots in order to show above the taller students. No matter the case, his lantern showed above every head there. "First years over here!" he called, his voice booming over the chatter of the students who still remained.

Jeremy chuckled. "I'm going, I'm going. Relax," he said, pulling her after him. They had barely sat down in the carriage before it took off. Jeremy seemed to glance at the empty space in front of the carriage with a very nervous look before he focused on Nezza.

[Sar]

As Elijia was left behind them Nezza looked at Jeremiah. "Way to be smooth on that one," She said with a solid look on her face.

[Raven]

Jeremy shrugged. "Not like I care. Once we're at school, I can smuggle you into the Slytherin dormitories, then what's he gonna do?" He smirked and kissed her.

[Sar]

She kissed him back but then bit his lip quickly and said "I would like to see you try," She turned to the rest of the riders in the carriage. This far into their relationship, others had learned to turn a blind eye.

[Raven]

Jeremy gave an exasperated sigh. "Sometimes I wonder if you even like me," he said.

[Sar]

"I think a little mystery is good in a relationship," She taunted as she turned to the girl next to her and started to discuss her summer.

[Gifted]

Andrea was looking around, trying to decide where to go, when suddenly she was knocked forward. She managed to keep her balance, though just barely. "Hey, watch it!" She snapped. Then she heard the teacher calling for the first years. Drat! She hadn't realised there were grown-ups around. She definately needed to be nicer. She turned to look at the girl who'd shoved her. "I'm sorry," she said sincerely, offerring a hand to help her up.

Nikki heard the gamekeepers call and followed eaerly, wanting to see the school as quickly as possible.

Tanner and Wesley, eager to lose the little weirdo, rushed through the crowd towards the gamekeeper as well.

[Raven]

"It was my fault," Lynn mumbled, accepting the help. "I'm sorry."

Evangeline hurried after Nikki until they were standing in front of Crue.

He didn't know how it had happened. One minute, he'd been following his brother quite closely, the next he was gone. Kenny forced himself to relax. It wasn't as though he was lost, he only needed to follow the man's voice like the other first years. Yet the idea of doing just that frightened him. He was sure this was going to turn out to be some mass 'hey you want some candy' incident. Even with his knees knocking at the terrifying thought, he followed the rest of the kids. Surely there was no way the man could take all of them, right?

Meanwhile, Adam smirked as he finally managed to ditch his brother. Maybe now he'd actually meet some cool people rather than all the lame ones who could put up with Kenny's whining. He looked up at Crue and weaved father into the crowd, so Kenny wouldn't find him.

[Gifted]

"No problem" She said, pulling Lynn to her feet. "Come on, or we'll lose the other first years,"

[Raven]

Lynn's eyes immediately became a warm chocolate brown and she smiled shyly. "Alright." She waited for Andrea to lead the way.

[Sar]

"Hey guys!" she yelled after them, running towards them. "Wait up!" she grabbed tanners shoulder. "I almost lost you,"
