It was a truly Slytherin thing to say. "Hmm? I suppose so" he teased resisting the temptation to poke out his tongue, deciding that now he was perhaps a little too old for the gesture.
She was doing an internship? That was cool. "I saw those advertised" the boy responded, looking towards the row of shops nearest to them. "But I thought that I'd rather help out my mum than spend my time here." Not that Diagon Alley wasn't a pleasant place to be, the shops were attractive and offering great things for sale but spending a whole summer here when they could've been out doing fun things sounded more like a chore than an experience to die for.
"I've not been doing that much" he replied. "And Amadeus is fine" he laughed. The Phoenix seemed to be a talking point around some of his friends, his mother was certainly lucky enough to own one but she was the former Magical Creatures Department Head in the Ministry and privileges came with these positions. "He usually just perches over my mum's desk when she's working." He kept himself to himself.
The Blonde boy shook his head when she enquired whether he'd been to the Petting Zoo. "No not yet" he spoke, glancing around to discover where the zoo was hidden. "I've only just got here and I've been wandering around trying to find someone to talk to." Because apparently everyone was interning or just not here. Brilliant.
"
There's not doubt in that. And you are pleasant to see as well, my friend," She grinned at him before taking another bite of her sandwich. And she meant what she said. Her he-snakes friends were really cool and she liked hanging out with them. Her Snake-ish traits mostly surfaced around them, too. Because they'd get each other's jokes and all.
Cassia liked how Terry showed interest in his mother's job or creatures. Not many kids liked to stick with their parents and help them in the summer. Cassia supposed she would, had one of her parents had something to do with call stuffs, like creatures.
except owls. But her father worked in the ministry and her mother was a housewife. Though, she did spend time with her lots. "
That's interesting." She nodded. "
Have you gotten to see a hippogriff or something that cool?!" She didn't know if her remembered, but they once talked about creatures and she expressed how much she admired hippogriffs and wished to ride one!
Amadeus. She always forgot the name, or just showed reluctance before saying it, fearing that it'd be wrong. Though it was about time that she registered in her mind for good. "
That's very nice," That the bird liked to stay near his mother. If only she had a nice bird. Maybe one day she'd get a phoenix? That was added to her bucket list right next to the Hippogriff wish.
"
I see," She commented looking in the distance at where she guessed was the magical zoo. "
It had creatures- nifflers, perlocks, flobberworms..." She trialed off guessing that he got the idea. She just wanted to clue him in and give an idea since he hadn't been there yet.
Then a question nagged at the back of her mind. Just out of curiosity and because she wanted to know what her friends were doing, "
Have you thought of studying...you know OWLs exams next term," She certainly didn't. And was kinda hoping to know that she wasn't the only one because that'd make her feel better.
