Paulie nodded. He was surprised to find that maybe, just maybe, Mr. Bunbury actually thought this was a cool career path, too. It got super annoying when everyone would respond with how the military had nothing to do with magic and stuff. DUH. He was aware of that. Muggle lover? Okayyy. "Sure, I guess I like 'em just the same as witches and wizards.." He wasn't really sure how else to respond to that.
Mr. Bunbury went on to tell him about how he had gotten to play the stunt double in an air force movie, so he got to hang out with actual fight planes and stuff. Gosh, LUCKY. This guy had armor and swords galore AND worked around jets and fighter planes. "Oh man, that's so cool!" The nerves were wearing off as Paulie eased into fun topics like this. "What movie was it?"
Then Tori piped up and he spotted her maneuver around her father to grin at him. This triggered an immediate grin from him, too, and his thoughts went waaaaaay back to that carnival where they met.
"Yes and no," Paulie answered Arnold Bunbury, who was STILL calling him Paul. "I saved her, but not with magic. I, er.." heheh. Was this even considered a rescue by anyone other than Fostbury..? "I took the brunt of an exploding lemonade for her. Then I saved her from some freaks in an inflatable bounce castle." Awwww, such good times!
