Rating: TBA
Status: Open/Closed

The first thing out of place was the obvious presence of very official looking wizards at the barrier to the Platform. At least it opened as usual for anyone who knew how to pass through - but inside the oddities were more obvious: Ministry officials and hitwizards posted throughout the Platform, checking the names of every student against some sort of list.

Bethanne Reynolds, a muggleborn second year in Hufflepuff, looked confused as the hit wizard asked her name, but she gave it easily. Beside her, a Slytherin boy whose name she didn't remember did the same, and after a moment was allowed onto the Express. The witch who was checking the list clucked her tongue, though, at Bethanne.

"Doesn't look like you're on the list here, dearie. Suppose you're not a witch after all. Off with you."

"But - " Bethanne didn't know what to say. Not then, and not when she was pushed out of line by the woman so that the student behind her could step up.

Soon it was obvious, all of the muggleborn students on the Platform that day were receiving the same treatment.

((OOC: If my character WOULD have given one of yours something, then just assume they did, even if they're not on the list. I only did the ones I could think of readily, as I'm lousy with gifts! Also Ron apologizes for not getting anyone anything, but it's hard to shop when one is Undesirable #3. There is no fancy links, because I am lazy and want to actually get caught up on tags.))
