A Fateful Encounter.

It was only the morning of the day after the potter twins had discovered that they were wizards, and Y/N was already done with the day. Hagrid had thought it would be a fun idea to ride a train to where Diagon Alley was near, stating that "I've never used muggle transport before."

This gave Y/N and Harry first-hand experience in seeing how out-of-touch wizards were in the muggle world. Hagrid looked like a little kid in a candy shop, spotting ordinary items like parking meters and pointing them out every time he saw them.

Riding the train itself was even worse. Hagrid, being the tall giant he is, practically frightened every little kid on the same train car as him, his shaggy appearance and big stature did not help in his efforts to look kind. Parents were shaking their heads at him as well, assuming that he was the reason that the twins looked as shaggy as Hagrid.

"Haven' lost yer papers, have yeh Potters?" Hagrid asked, distracting himself from the scared kids.

"No, we have them right here." Y/N answered, with both of them pulling out their envelopes.

"There's a list there of everything yeh need."

Y/N unfolded another piece of paper that was hidden behind his acceptance letter and read:
