Interacting with @Mina Starr
Elesarh Lindsay waved goodbye to her family as she hung out of the window, her cat Artemis in her arms. She waved until they were out of sight, lost in the billowing steam. It was only after hills and fields started rolling past did she duck her head back and collect up her things, ready to search for a compartment. She found an empty one about halfway down the train and slipped into it, shutting the door behind her and breathing out a sigh of relief. Boy was she glad not to have to ask anyone if she could sit. She almost shuddered at the thought.
Elesarh placed Artemis carefully on one of the seats as she started heaving her trunk up onto the luggage rack. It took a couple of attempts and many curse words but she managed it in the end, panting and sweating she shoved it up and back before collapsing next to her cat.
Artemis crawled onto her lap with a contented purr, curling up into a small ball. Elesarh smiled as she stroked her beautiful silvery fur. She was very suprised that her parents had let her buy a cat. It was probably because it wasn't actually their money she was spending. As a Muggleborn, the Ministry of Magic had given her a sort of trust fund. In her mother's words 'it was her money to use as she pleases, as long as she is sensible'
Elesarh gave a faint smile. She missed her family already.

Mina walks up the steps of the train and looks back at her mother and younger brother, Nate. SHe wished her father was able to see her. He had died a few months after she was born and her mother had always said her father was proud the moment she et out her first cry, she knew he would be proud that she was going to Hogwarts, the same school he had gone to.
She walks down the isle and looks around at the laughing, roughhousing and nervous first years and the calm and collected seventh years. She also noted who seemed to be the prefects and she walked past them, quiet. All her friends were muggles, and she didn’t know any of these kids. She keeps waling and finds one of the last compartments in the back, there was a girl with a cat on he lap and she taps the door way softly, “Hey, you mind if I sit here? I hope you don’t.” She walks in and plops down on a seat across form the girl.
She watches her, she seemed to be missing her family, from the way she was looking out the window before she walked in. She Watches the girl pet her cat and she sits back in her seat. Crossing her arms. She didn’t have a pet, not yet, she didn’t know what she wanted, a cat? An owl? A bunny? There was to much to choose from.
