Max turned in his seat. "Hey! Pssst! You in the corner…"

Lloyd jumped a bit, startled by the sudden voice. "Er, y-yes?" He set the book in his lap.

"What do you think? Should I study or not?"

"Probably so, unless you have a photographic memory. I've found it helpful, but your work is probably harder than mine." Lloyd shrugged. He didn't know how old Max was, but he was definitely older than him.

Max squinted. "What are you….first year?"

Lloyd nodded quietly. "Yes, but plenty of people don't really know I exist. One time, during roll call, the teacher actually skipped over my name. You probably don't care though, do you? I shouldn't pester you…"

"No! No…its fine…"

Does he care? No, he's probably just being polite. But doesn't everyone talk about how mean Slytherins are? Oh, come on. You of all people don't believe in stereotypes. True… Lloyd's heart pounded. Should I say something? Probably. "S-So, um… what's your name?"

"I'm Max! And you?"

"Lloyd Saxon Windsor, pleasure to make your acquaintance." You're such a nerd. Shut up.
(Fun fact, Lloyd's character was originally an angel, so that's why his name is like, the most angel sounding name ever)

(NOICE)
"Pleasure to meet you Lloyd!" Max said. "So…I know its kind of personal…but are you Pureblood?"

"Um, I'm not sure, actually. I don't know much about my parents. I live with my older brother, but he never talks about them."

"Oh….I'm sorry…" Max shifted uncomfortable in his chair.

"No, it's fine. I can't really feel sad I guess, since I never really knew them?" He shrugged.

"I suppose." Max shrugged. "I'm a muggle myself."

"Really? That's interesting. I may be one myself, and that may be why my brother doesn't talk about my parents…" Lloyd got lost in thought for the moment.

"So…how'd you land in Hogwarts then?"

"Hmm… what? Oh, since my brother went here, he just kind of registered me or something, I think." Lloyd twirled his wand with his fingers, and Hermes came into the room. "Oh! Hey Hermes. Max, this is my cat, Hermes." The sleek black cat sat calmly next to Lloyd, allowing the boy to stroke him.

MAx stared intensely at the cat. "Can I pet him?"

"Sure, he's friendly. Hermes, go say hi to Max." The cat purred and walked over to Max, hopping in his lap. (Wow this is really helping Max study lmao)

(No joke)
Max stroked the cat's soft fur. 'I love cats but my dad was allergic so we never got one…"

"Yeah, I like cats because dogs are a bit much for me. Cats are pretty self sufficient."

(UGH I HAS XOME BACK!)
Terra was sitting in her dorm, quietly practicing her potions. She wasn't nerd. She just liked potions. Well that was until she accidently made one explode BOOM "Sorry!" She yelled downstairs as she went to the bathroom to get cleaning supplies.

"Oh absolutely…" Max said. "The only problem is that they leave hair, everywhere."

"Hermes doesn't shed much, which is good. I named him Hermes, like the messenger god, because he sometimes delivers mail for me. And he's really fast." Lloyd jumped at the loud sound. "What was that?!"
