Welcome to Potter's Army

We have been a Harry Potter Roleplaying site since 2007. If you're an old member we hope you come check out the discord link provided below. And if you're looking for a new roleplaying site, well, we're a little inactive. But every once and a while nostalgia sets in and a few of our alumni members will revisit the old stomping grounds and post together. Remember to stay safe out there. And please feel free to drop a line whenever!

What’s Happening?
Since every few months or so a few of our old members get the inspiration to revisit their old stomping grounds we have decided to keep PA open as a place to revisit old threads and start new ones devoid of any serious overarching plot or setting. Take this time to start any of those really weird threads you never got to make with old friends and make them now! Just remember to come say hello in the chatbox below or in the discord. Links have been provided in the "Comings and Goings" forum as well as the welcome widget above.

steven nodded to the server and sat back on the chair he saw Andrew looking threw the window at the others inside "not seen so many Icream favors? " he asked half looking at him "I belive hogwarts do some a azing icreames , If i remember they hd one that actualy changed color and flavor" he grinned "tasty" he grinned as he ate his "ow before I forget here, its may numb take it ya have any problems call me" he said holding it out to him "think of me as your ranger on call " he said chukling as he droped some icream on his hand "oops" he said grinning ash he took his napkin and wiped his sleave clean.

He sighed looking at Andrew , again the though that his own son crept in and how by now he would have been going to hogwarts too about now , he looked into the melted remnants of his ice cream

Andrew hadn't had this good a day ever. He took Stevens number and put it in his new backpack. He sat for a long time in silence just eating his ice cream. It was dawning on him that he had to find out when and how he got on that dumb train.

"What'd she mean by taking a train?" he finally asked. "I usually walk or hitchhike. What's this about a train? Me? Taking a train? I don't get it."

He felt silly having to ask him, but he was doing this all by himself. And he had a feeling he had almost messed this up by not knowing about a train.

He opened his pack and rifled through and found some unopened envelopes from Hogwarts. If any of them needed any more permissions signed, he would have to try to buy some more. He didn't want to panic. but he had to know about the train, and if there were any more things he had to put into play before he got to Hogwarts.

"I don't even know if I have anything about this train in my stuff, " he said quietly, now being about as much all business as an eleven year old could be, scattering the envelopes across the table, not sure which one to open first. "I..I guess I didn't give all this stuff to my dad." He didn't want to say he didn't take care of it himself like he should.

Steven looked at the envalopes and picked them up looking at each one "well ya better open them and take a look " he said handing them back to him , something inside him wished he could do more for Andrew "ya really want to go to this school ?" he said in more of a question he had an idea but it was down to Andrew to say if he would go for it , steven knew he had nobody and nether did he, so in a way he knew what the boy felt like. " if ya come across any papers let me take look at them for ya" he said looking at Andrew now in a seriose face he would take no for anawnser he felt Andrew had potential and he was not about to let it go to waste just because he had nobody to look after him. If andrew agreed for the sake of the school he'd be his uncle so he could go and learn and not worry about things any more.

Andrew opened the envelopes and sorted through the papers. Mostly seemed to be things he had no means of comprehending. But in the final envelope, there. There was a train ticket with an address for Kings Cross Station. Oh, great. A ticket, but now a new problem. Where the heck was that? Could he walk there?

"Here," he finally said. He tucked the rest of the papers back in his bag and showed Steven the ticket. "Guess I'm good now. Good. I'm glad that's settled.' He had no intention of telling Steven that Kings Cross Station might as well be Mars for an eleven year old. It meant nothing except he had to get there and then he was afraid he wouldn't begin to understand what a platform even was let alone find the right one.

Steven loked down at his watch "if I'm right ya train leaves in an hour" he said handing him bck his ticket "ya want me to take ya , Im headed that way my self" he lied looked at Andrew "ow, if thats ok with you, just though coz i was going that way too we could go together" he said with a smile as he handed him back his ticket.

He sat back and waited for Andrew to say if he agreed , he got the feeling that he didn't know where to go and as so he felt so not to make him feel he was using him he'd leave the decishion to him to make making it sound as if he was going that way any way. than that would pput his own mind at reast knowing that Andrew was on his way to being the best he could.

"Well,.."Andrew hesitated, not wanting to be played, and wanting to take a moment to size him up. Then he decided that Steven had not steered him wrong so far, so he nodded. "As long as you're going, that is. Not making a special trip or nothing, right?" He looked at Steven for a moment, puzzled. This guy was strange. He didn't drink, didn't smoke, didn't chase every skirt he saw. Didn't belittle him. Certainly didn't buy him beer. Didn't force him to drink firewhiskey for entertainment in the pub, It was odd. He couldn't figure him out. What was he getting out of this? Andrew knew he himself was benefitting, but he wasn't sure Steven was. "An hour? Do we have time?"

Steven chuckled "yeap I'll aprate ya over to the station" he said with a grin "and don't worry i am sure, im going that way any way, got to meet and old freind he just come back from scotland " he said grinning to himself knowing jessca who he'd met at Khaats farm had mentiond her husband was due back this same day nd around the time he had to be at the station. "its kind trasporting with out the floo or brooms only us Aurors can do it well are alowed to, but ya can leard to to it " he said finisheing his ice cream whitch was now more like a milk shake than ice cream.

after a while he loked at his watch "oops we'd better go, if ya gonna catch ya train " he paused for a moment "erm gonna have to hold ya hand , ya ok with that?" he asked knowing that being how he was he may not be happy at holding some what of a strangers hand " I promse to make it quick, but not too quick " he said chuckling "I threw up on ma first trip"

That was okay with Andrew. When they stood up to leave, he took Steven's hand, doublechecking to be sure he had his backpack securely on his back. He had seen his father do this many times--and his drinking buddies. But he had never travelled this way. He had wondered if he had any magic in him at all. His father called him a useless squib, but then the letter came. So apparently that must have meant something. After all, why would Hogwarts spend any time on him at all if he were just a squib?
