Arrival
Lazarus Lavey had always wanted to go to Hogwarts, ever since he was told about it when he was young. He had always dreamed of riding on the Hogwarts Express, and now that he was here, shuffling through the carriages of the train looking for an empty compartment. He could barely hide how exhilarated he was. He finally came upon a compartment that didn't have some stranger inside, and took a seat, hauling his bags into the seat next to him.
He had always been very shy when it came to making new friends, so instead of finding someone to socialize with, he pulled up he sketchbook and drew, occasionally taking looks outside his compartment at the passing students. Then, when he grew bored, he would simply look out the window at the country side that reminded him of home, sighing as he realized that he would soon become very homesick, and should as soon as possible see that his parents buy him an owl.
Lazarus sighed as he thought about what he was missing, and what he would earn. It was too late to go back, that was for sure. But it was too soon to give up as well. Lazarus was curious, as always.

Arrival
Kierce sighed, he had been trying (and failing) to find a area of the train that didn't have people who didn't question why he was there or just be annoyingly kind like they were his grandparents you know "aw, we would love to let you sit here! So would you like some cookies or some homade pumpkin pie."
The last few doors all he thought was he couldn't care less is there was a person in the compartment was murder all I want is some quiet maybe a casual conversation every hour or two is that to much to ask? He opened the compartment and saw someone sitting there watching the out the window with a sketch book. "I'm sorry to ask but could I sit with you, all the other compartments are full or dont want me there. I promise I won't disturb you or anything." which to his own surprise he actually said out loud.
He forced a weak smile trying to seem friendly and quite instead of an anxiety riddled, eleven year old who also happened to be quite. "I'm sorry I should've introduced myself I'm, Kierce." he said now remembering this is how normal people responded to meeting someone. He just hoped that he could make a friend.

Arrival
Lazarus looked up from his sketchbook, and did his best to genuinely smile. "Well, I'm Lazarus. Yeah, go ahead and uh, take a seat." He nodded, and gestured to the seat in front of him, before adjusting his hat and looking back at the window and sighing. Lazarus remained quiet for a beat before saying "You feeling restless too? Or is that just me? I've never liked being in small areas, it might just be me." He shuffled in his seat nervously, looking about the room and trying not to come off as too shy or rude. Then, he took off his makeshift mushroom hat, and ruffled around his own hair, trying his best to pull his wavy hair straight, absentmindedly saying "I should have cleaned up nicer.." as he did so. He put his sketchbook away, and then looked back to the window again, as if closely examining it, keeping his eyes going from left to right, watching the countryside as it passed by. "So, What year are you? This is my first year. I've only learned about Hogwarts about 3 years ago. I can't wait until we get there." He made wild hand gestures as he talked, as he did most times.

Kierce mumbled his quite "Thanks." and sat down. He remained silent until the kid spoke up "You feeling restless too? Or is that just me? I've never liked being in small areas, it might just be me." he waited a few seconds until his own response "well lad, I'm fine in these areas, but I feel like this a dream and I'll wake up and be normal you know? No magic, just going to school, to learn about maths onstead of magic." he wanted to try to make himself seem more enthusiastic, though Kierce didn't know how to do that well. The boy in front of him took off his hat(Which to Kierce looked like one of those paper mache things he used to have as a child, but who is he to judge) and muttered "I should have cleaned up nicer.. Kierce gave a sympathetic smile "you're fine I mean, I probably look sleep deprived and like. spilled oil on my hair. he ruffled his own hair thinking he probably shouldn't have said that, now Lazarus probably was gonna imagine that he actually had oil in his hair.I'm to awkward to talk to people for ten seconds. It was silent for a awkward moment. "So, What year are you? This is my first year. I've only learned about Hogwarts about 3 years ago. I can't wait until we get there." Kierce went silent listening intently, he was always Interested in learning about the Wizarding school. "This is my first year as well. And I'm hoping Its better than my last school. he muttered. "I learned about Hogwarts a few months ago, when I got my letter. But you've known about this school longer than me, so is there can you tell me a bit about it? he said trying to make himself sound intresting and not like how he felt all the time. Maybe he could make a friend for the one of the first times.
