Brand chuckled "Well, rather embarrassingly I didn't know that no. Well you see I just found my pet. Actually my brother found it but I still think that counts." He shook his head, a thought had just occurred to him. Yeah, okay she has a snake. But why would a snake choose her? It was almost as if she could talk to it. He blinked hard the asked. "Are you, I mean, can you speak Parseltounge? A snake wouldn't just choose anybody right? So you must have a special bond with them right? So, you can talk to it can't you?" He stared at her eagerly. He was a prankster and thought a friend who could speak Parseltounge was really useful. @RavenTLark

Steadman glared as Conan said that they would kill him. "Why you little! He was only after me!" He muttered, wishing he had tonnes TNT, so he could blow up everything. Then he heard Sia say "Hey, hey, hey, no one is poisoning or eating anyone." He grinned and mouthed "Cheers m'dear." He turned to Conan and said. "Listen, I know you're tired and whatnot, but hear me out. It's my battle, and don't worry we're just friends. Plus I can handle that guy. No need to sweat! The only one on the same page as me is her," he pointed to Sia "and I just met her. We've known each other for quite a bit and we aren't even in the same book! So, peace?" He held out his and and furrowed his brow. @Drakeonis

Brand nodded and sat down across from her, his hands between his legs. "Hi," He said almost immediately. "I'm Branch Finch-Fletchly, and I'm new here. Who are you?" He looked at her trolley, and saw a small white creature. He was unsure what it was so he leaned towards it. "Cor blimey! Is that a snake? How did'ya tame one of those? I didn't think we were allowed 'em. How on earth did you do it?" He asked in wonder. @RavenTLark

Steadman was listening to the little conversation the rest were having and gasped. "Posing? Butcher? They're going to poison Adam?" Clara was shocked at Simona's glee of poisoning her husband. "Hey if it makes you feel any better I can deal with this." Said Steadman determinedly. He marched over to Simona, and balled his fists. "Nobody is poisoning anybody! Have a problem with that? File it to the complaints department." He gestured to an open gutter. "Yeah, I said poison. I said 'anymore of this conversation will poison my brain.'" He pointed at her, his eyes full of false authority. "Don't get any idea's, or next time you break a limb, I'll break the other ones for you. Clear on the sweetheart?" He smiled, his wicked smile. @TalijaKey

Steadman held up his hands and chuckled. "Peace, sir, peace! Any more of this conversation shall posin my brain!" Smiled at Conan. "If that's what you wish, mind you, you are just baby sitting a stubborn mule. You don't have a stick or a carrot." He reached into his pocket and scribbled down the bit about the mule. "Plus, I never knew she was married! I swear! I swear on my little notebook of wisdom!" Suddenly his head turned and he smiled. "Be right back, lad." He tugged his collar away and sprinted off into the streets yelling. "Hey! Hey you! It's me! Remember me?" He stopped at the back of a florists. "Clara! Remember me?" He hugged her, but remained weary. I think you can guess why, who she is married to. "Good lord I haven't seen you in ages. Now, onto business. Is your black butcher of a husband around here. I don't think he should see what will happen next."

Brand was sitting on a bench in Kings cross station, with his cat on his lap. " Father, how much longer is he going to be? I know Pete always takes ages but this is just madness!" Hsi brother was as usual in the bathroom at the station. "Can't I just leave without him?" His father shook his head and tutted. Brand simply closed his eyes and recalled the past few days, and of course the day he received his letter.

His family were crowded around a large fire in a grand living room. He came from the rather grand Finch-Fletchly family, who were known to be eccentrics of the highest order. Brand imagined when his father was 'attacked' in his second year by a snake, it may have made him the nuttiest there is or ever will be. He remembered suddenly the fire spluttered and a letter came down the chimney. Without thinking he ran towards it and caught the letter, and searing his yellow dressing gown. He excitedly tore it open to reveal his acceptance letter. He read it aloud and a huge cheer came from the family.

The very next day he found himself in gringots, with all the 'crankly little goblins'. They lead him to a vault where a small fortune was kept. "Cor blimey! Thats enough to last me a decade!" He remembered when he was just leaving Olivanders, his little brother, Pete, was petting a stray cat and wanted to keep it. Eventually after a lot of haggling the cat was his and he named it Gizmo.

Back to the present. Brand opened his eyes to see Pete and his mother walking towards them. Quick as a flash he got up and bid his goodbyes. "3, 2, 1!" He ran down the platform into the wall between platforms 10 and 9, and into platform 9 3/4. A marvellous train was there, entitled the Hogwarts Express. He smiled and walked onto the train. He pushed his trolley along until he reached a compartment with a girl in, about his age. "Oh, do you mind?" he asked gesturing to a seat.@RavenTLark

Steadman chuckled. "Hey he started it! Plus I did nothing wrong! I only had an x-rated evening with his wife! No biggie." He turned to Simona "I cant say you were any help dear. You were naughty and now for the consequences." He got up, slid his arm around her waist and kissed her. "Can't say I didn't enjoy that, love." He whispered to her. He actually didn't just enjoy it. He loved it. He had a huge crush on her, and was waiting for his moment to go all yandere. "As I say bad girls get punished." He pulled away and took Sia's hand and kissed it. He did the same to her friend "My name is Steadman. Delighted I'm sure." @TalijaKey@Leda

@RavenTLark Well, I suppose I'll post my first IC then.

Steadman took a deep breath then smiled at Mar and put his hand on his back. "You know what? Go on with you childish game, but know this. You should have let people bet on this." He turned to Oliver "Hey if you lose, glad to have you here." He marched off the ship and into a tavern. "Hey! I'll have a-" he couldn't finish his sentance. A large man in an apron was standing behind him, and caught Steadman's eye. He knew who this man was. That butcher he mentioned. "Oh, hi there Adam." Without thinking he ran and Adam chased him. Shouts of "Come back here punk!" He stopped at a dock, where Simona and a shipwright happened to be talking. He spinned around and drew his dagger. "Come get me!" He taunted. Adam charged and he jumped out of the way then jumped on his back. "Come on bronco!" He got him in a choke hold and jumped of his back. Steadman held his dagger to Adam's neck "move along now!" Adam ran away. "He'll be back." He laughed and sat on a barrel.
