So. This was the guy. So he DID know how many times Tobias had done that. Awkwarrrrrrrrrrrrd.

Tobias gave a cleeeeeearly guilty little grin and nervous laugh as he looked up at the man and rubbed the back of his neck with the hand that wasn't clutching the skateboard. "Yeeeaaahhh... 'm sorry about that!"

He was. Really. "Maybe it's some sort of sign." Like... a message from the divine skateboard of destiny telling the guy he should be on a board. Or Tobias wasn't looking where he was going. Probably the latter.

But wait... it WAS bizarre. Kinda. "So... you're a wizard then? That's... wow..." Two wizard households on the same muggle street. Tobias then started his usual bouncing-on-the-balls-of-his-feet. "No but that really is awesome though! You teach here now, right?" Tobias had CONNECTIONS. That Slytherin Tobias had met might have a grandmother as her head of house, but TOBIAS had nearly run over one of their teachers MULTIPLE TIMES on his skateboard. Which of those sounded cooler?

Exactly.

BOUNCEBOUNCE.
So, the kid did remember how many times he'd nearly run him over. Despite it, Piers chuckled. "Don't sweat it. Unless you do end up running me over. Then you'd better worry." Piers imagined broken toes weren't pleasant. And even though he was sort of(?) joking, he gave the kid a 'be careful' look.

Pierson found it amusing that he asked if he was a wizard. Obviously. And if he was a teacher... Obviously. "Yes, to both," he replied, watching the boy begin to bounce on his toes. "D'you live on that street then? Where you like to try and mow me down?" Because if he DID, then they totally lived on the same street, which was quite a coincidence.
