The Hogwarts Express was not the typical method of transportation for an arriving professor. However, with the full moon rising the night before, the energy one needed to apparate to Hogsmeade Station, and then make the lengthy trek to Hogwarts from the village, was something Remus didn’t possess. This alone was a reasonable excuse to board the train, but it wasn't Remus" only. The memories as a student aboard the train were among his favorite. They reminded him of a time that was much less complicated, and maybe for a few hours, in between catching up on sleep, he could enjoy the nostalgia of his youth. So, exhausted from the previous moon, Remus settled into an empty compartment, stored his belongings on the bench above, and closed his eyes.
