Snippet #1841316

This submarine trip was a pretty exciting experience to behold. Samuel had enjoyed the entire trip spending most of it taking notes in a small red notebook about the various animals and sea life he saw that interested him. Plus it would be good to know what kind of things were here under the water and if he could find any ingredients for different potions or spells. Even though he knew his classes would provide ingredients he wanted to know where to get his own in case he ever wanted to make things in his spare time. Once he was done with his notes he closed the book and took out his wand and uttered a few words. The book's color changed from red to black and if anyone opened it they would find the pages blank. Only someone who knew the magical phrase and Sam's personal password they would not be able to read any of the secrets he had in the book.

Soon he noticed that the sub's speed was slowing which could only mean that they was coming to their destination soon. From all the books, brochures, and people he had spoken with he knew this would be the time to put on his robes but he already had put them on to save times later. His robes were similar to all the other students except that his crest was Dawes. Under these robes he wore brown slacks with a brown leather belt, black comfortable loafers, and a button down royal blue shirt that was tucked in. Around his neck was a striped blue and gold tie that matched his crest. He had wanted to give a good impression of himself to people on this first day. But these clothes weren't what he normally liked to wear but he knew that people judged by looks even if they didn't matter. He checked his bags and belongings making sure everything was secure and put away as the sub came to a stop. Which they were since no one but himself had been in this room at all except the elves that had brought food. He had wanted someone to ride with him, not for companionship, but to gather a bit more information from them. When he had tried to go into one of the higher year cabins they had hastily ushered him out with excuses of 'Saving that seat for a friend'. There had been one with a rough looking woman who seemed a little taller than himself who sat alone. But the dangerous look she gave him the moment he opened the door had told him not to even try. So he had ended up alone which suited him fine. But he knew if he didn't get along with someone his mother would worry. And it wasn't like he could make up friends since his aunt worked at the school and would tell his mother everything.

Okay breath in and out. Then you are ready to interact. Don't blow it no matter what. Sam thought to himself s he got ready to go outside of his room. Once outside he saw plenty of first years and other students gathering and chatting excitedly. He was just as excited as them although his face would not show that. He watched as one of the higher years began spouting out orders to the others to help organize them. He saw many different people doing plenty of different things. One person handed him something like a pastry saying that it was a treat from one of the higher ups named Izzy. He saw plenty of others eating the snacks but he noticed that they all seemed to be the younger first years. Before even opening it he read the entire packaging and ingredients and caught the part that this came from a joke shop. It would induce vomiting and could only be stopped by eating the orange part. He pocketed the joke snack and made his way past anyone he had seen eating it. He had to make sure he was out of the puke zone so that he wouldn't get covered in sickness.

As he pushed and made his way forward he accidentally bumped a few people a bit too hard and muttered quick 'Excuse me's and 'I'm sorrys'. It was a bit cramped with all the bodies. He couldn't wait to get outside in the open. Being cooped up wasn't really for him. Plus he couldn't wait to see his room and Pepper his pet Wyvern. Behind him he heard puking noises and screams as the effects of the sweets started. A few of the higher years went back to help control the situation. Inside he chuckled a bit That's what people get for eating something without knowing what it was. But then again some of them might have known and did it anyway. Oh well he wasn't sick so he had no need to worry. But this snack would be a good ingredient to use in experimental potions. He began to make his way up front again trying to get past the rubberneckers trying to see what was going on behind them.

Once up front he ran into that woman he had met earlier on the trip. Except this time she had her robes on but she stilled had the anti-social aura around her. He thought that it would be a good idea to stick close to her. Mostly because people gave he a wide berth and enough room to pass. It would make getting out of there easier. So he quickly fell into step with her but not so close as to seem like he was walking with her. He was just using the lane she created as a way to get somewhere faster. To some it might seem like they were walking together and would look like a strange sight. One that looked like a proper model citizen and the other who looked like she would gladly kick your head off.
