You know I feel like that in all of the Harry Potter fan fictions, friendships start in the train ride to Hogwarts. You know, the main character would be sitting in the compartment all alone, just dramatically staring out the beautiful window. Then all of a sudden someone opens the door and says something like, “Can I sit here? Every other compartment is taken.” and then the main character says yes. And now all of a sudden they launch into a conversation and immediately they become best friends forever and ever.
Meanwhile here I am thinking, that when someone would walk in and ask to sit with me, the entire ride would just be me and that person being the quiet and awkward introverts we are. And then when we got to the school, we’d get out of the hot train and never look at each other again.
