Chapter 2: Impressions

Year 1971 – September 1

Gintoki's first impression of Hogwarts was memorable. Honestly, the sight of the huge castle humming with exuberant magic made his skin shiver pleasantly. As he stepped off the boat, he glanced at the other children.

They too wore looks of excitement and wonder but more blatantly.

"I heard that you have to fight a troll to be sorted," said one boy.

Others muttered to themselves, nervousness replacing their earlier emotions. Gintoki, however, glanced disinterestedly to the side. He had noticed the boy exchanging mirth-filled eyes with another boy. It was obvious that he was lying if you looked closely.

'Do this place even give out strawberry milk...?'

The two boys are James and Sirius. James was the one who lied. They're so cute and mischievous at this age.
