The Beginning of the Firsts ((Open))

First topic message reminder :

The grin that had appeared on the boy's face hadn't left as pulled at his father's hand urging him to go faster. Eiji stumbled a little as Asriel led the way towards the barrier. He'd wanted the full experience so they had gone to the station to send Asriel on the train. Everything he'd need for school was in his truck which had been shrunk until they reached the other side of the barrier. His kneazle on the other hand was in his knapsack on his back not wanting to put the creature in a carrier nor had it wanted to either. In fact as he'd gathered his things for his trip, the animal had crawled into his bag as if to ensure he wouldn't forget it. That had caused a grin to spread across his face and he'd been wearing it since.

"Come on!" Letting go of the adult's hand, he ran ahead and then waited by the gateway until his father had grabbed his shoulder and they walked through to where the scarlet steam train was waiting. Bouncing on the balls of his feet he gave his father a quick hug after the man unshrank his trunk. "Thanks!"

He ran off after the required promise of writing back home etc, and his trunk had been placed in the train. Eagerly, he nearly skipped down the train, hands clasped behind him under his bag as he peered into the compartment windows before finding one and opening it. Leaving the door open, he set his knapsack down and allowed Salem out of the bag. The kneazle decided that it wanted to curl up atop the bag, so shrugging, Asriel slid into the opposite seat.

"Mum's really nice! Sometimes she'd take me to the playgrounds she used to play in!" Why didn't wizards have many of those?

Hugo chuckled at Carina's statement about his mum punching her dad. "She must've thought he had cooties!"
