Roy stepped out of the carriage after Nolan. The young boy and two of his other friends had found Roy upon getting off the train and piled into the same carriage. Both the train and carriage rides had remained uneventful after Samantha's friend's episode at the beginning. Although, he couldn't complain about where it had led. Two of the girls, Constance and Roxane had seemed interested in a repeat performance of his skills. He'd promised to meet them later this week and paint their owls for them.

He heard Erasmus's footsteps as the larger young man stepped out of the carriage behind him. "Well we're back again," he said to his friend. He looked up at the silhouette of the imposing castle. Some had taken to calling the renovated school "New Hogwarts," but of course Mr. Archer was quick to remind his sons that regardless of the structure of the school it would forever retain the same values that Hogwarts was known for. No need to call attention to such unimportant details as appearance. Roy walked with Erasmus, one of his good friends inside Ravenclaw house. Erasmus was a big guy, excellently suited for a position of beater on the Ravenclaw Quidditch team. He was a gifted student as well. Despite all that, he seemed to lack some sort of confidence in social situations.

The two made their way into the hall and over to the Ravenclaw table. Scanning down the row for a good place to sit, Roy caught sight of Frankie, another girl in their year. With a bit of a mischeivous grin he pointed her out. "Let's go sit with Frankie." Erasmus let out an audible sigh, but he did not resist. "Oh come now, Erasmus, I thought you'd be excited to dine with the love of your life."

"I oughtta throw you off the tower for the torture you put me through," Erasmus muttered as he landed a firm but friendly punch on Roy's back.

Roy laughed and led Erasmus to two free seats. "Hey Frankie," he said, plopping down beside the red haired girl. "I hate Romeo and Juliet..." He replied with a laugh, "Well that Romeo is kind of an idiot isn't he? Who falls in love with a girl he just met?" Roy and Frankie had gotten to be friends in their first year. Having been randomly paired by chance to practice spells in their Transfiguration class, the two both showed good talent and so often had some extra time to talk. A few weeks into the term the pairs were shuffled around again, this time pairing each of them with someone less skilled in Transfiguration but they kept in touch. Erasmus, had over the course of their third year, developed quite a crush on Frankie, though few could tell. The Ravenclaw was nervous enough around most girls and social situations that how he acted around her seemed normal. Naturally, Roy often pushed him to say something but he hadn't succeeded yet.
Apoka, I'm gonna have Roy come bother Frankie either in getting off the carriages or in the great hall. I figure he may as well interact with someone in his own house finally.

EDIT: At the table it is then.
There's a lot of talk of bringing down Acacia, but uh... why exactly does she need to be brought down? :P
Yeah she holds influence, but does anyone (even those who see through here charade) have any reason to believe she's got evil intentions. I mean as far as anyone can tell she's just another pureblood Slytherin snake sucking up and manipulating people so she can get what she wants. Nothing out of the ordinary.

I believe that the first years take the boats to the castle while everyone else takes the carriages...however as I've said before I really need to reread so I'm not entirely sure, I'm just talking from memory.

Yeah that's right

Give me a moment and I'll run up a character sheet, I was thinking Auror stationed at Hogwarts for classified reasons, this is taking place post book series correct?


Just my input: Whether it's allowed or not, playing as the only non-student would kinda limit you in your interactions don't you think?

Isaak might just spill the truth about Acacia to get her out of the compartment and give Willow some space lol


Nah, that'd be no fun. I think Samantha and Acacia sticking around makes the most sense.
Roy stood in the doorway looking at the group he and Raymond had just joined. Quite an interesting group of people. He wondered what circumstances had drawn such a variety of students into each other's company. The only one he really knew was Samantha. She and Raymond greeted in the usual way. "Oh. Hey." She greeted him. He returned the smile, "How are you doing." She was very friendly person, pretty girl too. Though he had to admit her way of talking sometimes grated on him.

He caught sight of some younger Slytherins, maybe they knew Nolan. There was some talk of Quidditch, but before Roy could really get into the conversation a jumble of things happened. The next thing he knew he was being shoved out by an older Slytherin. He didn't particularly take well to being handled magically like that. Though it was for a good cause, he let it slip. He would remember this older boy now. He decided to just stay out in the doorway. He imagined Raymond would still around as long as possible to make sure the girl was okay. In the meantime, he poked his head into the compartment across from the other.

There were a few Hufflepuff girls chatting over a pile of sweets. "Well hello there ladies. I hate to bother you, but do any of you have some food to spare to a starving artist?" A few confused looks. He pretended to sigh disappointedly, "I see my reputation isn't as great as I thought. I'm Roy Archer, Hogwarts's resident master of visual artistry." That got a few laughs out of them. "Tell you what, how about I prove it to you, and you share your sweets with me?" He picked up a chocolate frog card from the seat closest to him. "Hmm good ol' Dumbledore." He took a seat and opened up his bag pulling out a Muggle pencil and sheet of paper. "Just continue your conversation ladies, I'll be done soon." He went to his work, recreating the picture. The girls went back to their conversation, and he was pleased to see that more than one of them was eyeing him curiously now and then. Though the simple supplies weren't normally what he'd use, he wanted to finish quickly in case Raymond came around looking for him.
