She really hoped that this year of Hogwarts wouldn’t be as bad as her entire morning had been.
Edie had luckily woken up on time, though the moment she went into the dining room for breakfast, she was practically accosted by her grandfather; as usual, their fight consisted of how he was going to be furious with her if she didn’t pick up the slack this year at school and how she would have been an embarrassing disappointment to both of her parents, who had been dead since she was eight years old. So, she had gone to grab her things for the train in a huff and, only when she got to the station did she realize she had left something behind. But it was far too late to collect it, so she’d have to leave it alone. And then, when she got on the train, her wonderful cousin decided that it was time to get in her way, which caused her to struggle to find a seat.
She wasn’t sure how she managed to find an empty compartment, but she was sure glad that she did. However, the second that she had sat down, a young boy came barging in asking about a toad. She had simply responded in her usual snarky way that he should’ve kept track of his pet and shut the door in his face.
“Some people just don’t have their lives together, do they?” She asked her cat, who had gracefully hopped onto the seat beside her just as the train began to move. And when the cat regarded her silently (and with a surprisingly judgemental look), she rolled her eyes. “Oh, what do you know? You’re a cat.”
Edie then turned her attention to the window, looking disgruntled. It had been a rough morning and she was exhausted, but she knew sleep wouldn’t come for her until far too late in the night. She wondered if it was too early in the year to miss one of her morning classes. She pulled her class list from her pocket and mulled over it for a moment, quickly finding herself a little annoyed. Her first class happened to be Transfiguration, which was her favorite, and one she would hate to miss — she had to acknowledge that she absolutely would multiple times during the year, though. She hated waking up and getting up early, and honestly, just being awake in general.
