Instead of that smile, the redhead raised an eyebrow, "I don't think that not being able to pronounce your silly name makes the majority of the Hogwarts population, including myself, incapable." Thank you very much. It was really just a suggestion anyway. "And if you insist on people calling you...that name...than you shouldn't be so bothered when they pronounce it wrong. It's not like they're doing it on purpose," she said matter-of-factly. "That being said, I do understand how you could prefer to be called something over something else." Like how she only liked to be called 'Ellie' and hence introduced herself as such. Though, 'Ellie' was very easy to pronounce compared to Joahoo.

As far as getting her Quidditch work done, that would be impossible with him there. And she wasn't too keen on being nice to him after he'd called her 'incapable'. "You know, Quidditch season isn't too far away and I really need to work on these strategies..." He should go find another tree now.

HMPH.

Oh, how Joćo enjoyed angry, know-it-all Ravenclaws. He enjoyed it even more if that anger was caused by him. Sure, usually it ended quite horribly for both sides, especially on his side, but it was worth it. Because then he would just leave casually and they would be angrier for caring in the first place.

...no one called his name silly, though.

"My name is silly now?" he counter-attacked, obviously shocked. He would keep calm though... he had observed many times that being angry and giving hot answers did him no good, so he would just keep calm and answer her in short, effective answers to prove her wrong.

"If you don't know your own language, then it's not my problem." He smirked. "Let me still teach you, in case you'll have to use it in the future." His smug smirk got broader, though the moment later he was quite serious and in the mood of a small lecture. "'capable' means 'having the ability, power or qualities to do something'. That being said, copying the other side's words always did the trick, "the majority of Hogwarts population, including you, are incapable of pronouncing my noble name." There. Explanation done. "Thank you, again, for your understanding." Yep. Always thank someone when they do something you need. Joćo Marcelo Nascimento Mendonēa Teixeira Neves never forgot his manners.

Raising his eyebrows in confusion, he said "I don't think you need my permission to work on that, but I'll give you permission anyway." She probably wanted to ask him politely to move to another tree, but since he had been nice enough to let her sit there with him, share his blanket with her and not to answer her hotly after her insult to his name, he was so staying there.

Hehe.
