Lauren shrugged, sharing the feeling that their curriculum wasn't as complete and nice as it could be. [color=00a651]"I've seen wandless magic mentioned in some books in the library, so they sure know it exists"[/color] she started [color=00a651]"I guess it's the same as in muggle schools: they have to keep a low level so everyone can follow. I mean, you've seen how some Hufflepuffs do a Wingardium Leviosa, I wouldn't trust them with more complex magic. But it's unfair for the rest of us"[/color] she complained, raising her knees to have her feet on the seat and be more comfortable. 

[color=00a651]"Unfortunately, no magic people in my family. As far as I know"[/color] she answered, shrugging but tensing up a little. All this blood purity thing had been long forgotten, but some people were still annoying with that. Rich and powerful wizarding families in Slytherin in particular. [color=00a651]"So I only can work with what we have in Hogwarts. And whatever I do in the future, of course."[/color] she smiled a little at the other girl not feeling prepared for Herbology. [color=00a651]"Oh, I would worry more about History of magic. That sure is a pain."[/color] she joked [color=00a651]"If you need help with Herbology, just ask me. I'm not the best at that class by far, but I sure know more than enough to get good grades, so maybe I can help"[/color]

The rest of the trip went by more silently, Lauren going back to reading and sighing, tired. She was thankful when the train stopped, finally in Hogsmade, as the sky was starting to get dark. She stood up, stretching, and grabbed little Sky trying not to move her much, she was just napping with her wing covering her head. 

She walked outside, getting soon to the carriages, containing a shiver seeing the empty space in front of them. They had studied Thestrals last year and luckily she wasn't able to see them yet, but the pictures had been awfully creepy. And not being able to see the animals made her even more nervous, even if the poor things couldn't do different. She got to a carriage, carefully getting Sky next to her, and resting patiently during the treck up to the castle
