Chapter 10- Train Troubles and Strange Sortings
Wednesday 1st September 1971

ᖇᗴᗰᑌᔕ'ᔕ ᑭOᐯ-

It became quite clear that no one knew what to say and if it was up to me we would sit in silence for the whole ride. James had other ideas.

"Hey, wanna play a game?" He asked anxiously.

"What kinda game?" Peter questioned.James only shrugged his shoulders in response.

"Hey Remus, because you are a half blood do you know any games that we can play?" Sirius said turning the attention to me.

"Umm... 21 questions?" I suggested feeling a bit nervous talking to strangers after years of being stuck inside.

"How do you play?" James asked .

"So you take turns asking questions to each in order for example Peter could ask a question we all tell a truthful answer and then James asks a question and so on so on and we ask 21 questions in total." I explained.

"Ok Pete ask us all a question!" James commanded in a 'I don't want to say it but hurry up' kinda way.

"Ok so...What's one word to describe your family? Mine would be busy" Pete stated.

"Caring," James smiled probably at the memory of his family.

"Annoying," Sirius said not looking faced at all.

"What about the two girls that you where standing with?" I asked not knowing if he hated them or was just joking around.

"Oh Andromeda and Narcissa they are my cousins, Andy is in her last year and Cissa is in her 5th." Sirius said forgetting about his cousins.

"Oh and my word to describe my family is eccentric," I quickly said I almost forgot about the game entirely.

ᔕIᖇIᑌᔕ'ᔕ ᑭOᐯ-

Remus accidentally reminded me of Andy's friend. It hurt but I wasn't going to cry again.
Ce qui est passé est passé (𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩'𝙨 𝙥𝙖𝙨𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙋𝙖𝙨𝙩.)

We played 21 questions for a while and I got to ask the last question.

"What Hogwarts house do you want to be in?" I asked generally curious.

"Gryffindor, like my parents!" James loudly exclaimed.

"Uhh... I want to match with my family and be a Ravenclaw but I think I'm a Hufflepuff," Peter said shyly.

"I'm not sure, my mum was a Hufflepuff but my dad was a Ravenclaw so I'm not really sure to be honest," Remus stated clearly not used to human interaction.

Maybe he had a hard time making friends. Or maybe he knew about the Blacks and doesn't want anything to do with me.

"Oh I want anything but Slytherin, I am nothing like my family and I want to show that to the world." I explained.

We all zoned out of our conversations and it ended up with me, James and Peter talking about Quidditch.

The trolly lady came round and asked if we would like anything.
