"Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world."As they neared the entrance to the castle, Tristain's heart pulsed faster and faster, still well-aware of the boy at her side. His presence, though new-found, seemed to bring out the real Tristain, a comfortable Tristain - though it would still be automatic for her to hide her deeper thoughts and feelings, Jayden was one of the few hands with permission to flip almost freely through her pages, choosing what he wants to know and skipping past what he doesn't.
"Aren't you excited?" She asked, the thrill of the moment evident in her voice. Soon the doors opened and the crowd of first years began making their way through it - some hurriedly, some hesitating. "Come on." This time her voice was nearly a whisper as she smiled up at Jayden before continuing into the castle - an enlightening sort of magic taking hold of her for the first time. It was the feeling of being at Hogwarts.[[Off to the Antechamber!]] "In seeking wisdom thou art wise; in imagining that thou hast attained it - thou art a fool."

The boat bumped against the dock, and Shina climbed out, offering her hand down to Rue. "Oh, well, I'll take Muggle Studies first. It's offered starting second year. But I want to sign up for Arithmancy, Cursebreaking, Wandless, Care of Magical Creatures, Ancient Runes, and Alchemy at least in third year! I plan to take as many courses as I can!" Shina confessed with a mischievous grin. For the first time since getting off the train, Shina actually looked like an eleven year old girl excited about going to magic school.
((OOC: Maybe if Shina and Rue stay friends, Shina can teach Rue a little? Just a smattering of words here and there, and the occasional phrase?))

"Mm, splinching does sound scary, but it's reversible. Some accidental magic comes in the form of spontaneous apparition, so really, we're just learning to consciously control an ability we already have. I heard once that splinching is so easily reversed because we instinctively know what to do when we apparate, it's just our own disbelief that causes problems. So our magic knows how to do it right, and just needs a little nudge to finish the job until we believe we can do it right," Shina told the other girl. "Of course, this wasn't an academic opinion, just a conversational one, so I don't know how true that is."
((OOC: No problem! And I love your little image boxes. Where did you get them, if you don't mind me asking?))
