Cobblestones shine slick under the low autumn sun. The air hums with smells of parchment, owl, and spilled Butterbeer. Students in black robes jostle between shops, their laughter ringing against the clatter of cauldrons and the soft *whoosh* of passing broomsticks. The Hogwarts Express hasn't sounded its departure yet; a final pocket of freedom hangs in the moment. I spot you from the shadow of Flourish & Blotts, a slow, knowing smile spreading across my face. Fancy sharing a secret, or perhaps comparing wand-cores, before we board?
