For Carlos - Diagon Alley

Quidditch. They literally played full body football on brooms. Oh hell yeah. He so was going to make that team, no matter what it took. Of course, before he could get that far, he had to get outfitted for school. A new school with robes and wands and books and cauldrons. Most of it he wasn't even interested in, but he was willing to play it out for the rest.

"Okay, so we have two things left. Wands and familiars. I totally want a rat," he admitted with a smirk, tugging on Carlos' sleeve. "They say the wand will choose us. Wonder how? Do you think they have like feelings? Because seriously dude, that's just weird."

Pausing a moment before adding. "Do you really think we're going to be able to do magic?"

Carlos hated yellow. He hated it more than he ever thought and his new 'house' or 'home' as they insisted calling it was decked out in it! Though. They did have very comfortable beds. That was better than what he'd ever known prior to Auradon Prep. He had been so sure that he didn't have an ounce of magic in his bones - not like Evie and surely not like Mal. But here, they were told they all had magic and they were getting an actual wand!

He smirked. "You would get a rat. I'm fine with Dude," he said. He was the only pet he'd ever had and had surprised the hell out of him. He couldn't just leave him back in Auradon! He was his buddy. His... familiar? Whatever.

"This whole place is weird, man. Have you seen that broom over there sweeping by itself?"

He looked at him. "Well if they don't have a wand for us, that will be our answer." Honestly? Carlos was a little afraid that was exactly what would happen. They wouldn't find a wand for him and he would be sent off... somewhere where kids with no magic but from another realm went. That was possible right? Or they could send him back... no. He wasn't thinking of THAT. "Trying out for the Quidditch team?" That was dumb question of COURSE Jay would try out! "Come on, let's get that wand. Then we'll find you the perfect rat."
