So I guess m'mam figured it was better to tell me about that school and not Hogwarts. I knew there was a lake and that it was very far to the north. Oh, and on the trip over I learned that there was a giant squid." He tacked on as if he'd just recalled the information. It was kinda nice figuring it all out for himself. It appealed to Cutty's lately increasingly independent side.
The boy gave a short snortish type laugh at the question of what he had. "You look like a Sugarquill type to me. Pragmatic and discreet. Or if you're in the mood for something smaller I do have some Every Flavour Beans and Jelly Slugs on me." He said unfastening the closure on his bag and digging through it making soft little crinkling noises. He pulled up a black licorice wand and set it down beside his books to get it out of the way then produced a Chocolate Frog packet. He plopped it on to the surface of his book and remembering to keep his voice down asked "Really? What's his name?". He was looking for that one. That Best customer patron.
Cassia listened to Cutty talking while she absently turned pages, just something to do with her hands. He was going to a Canadian school? She found that interesting as the only other schools she knew were Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. So this was something new. She nodded at the information her knew. "
Yup, giant squib named Henry," She randomly added remembering that she and her friends wanted to see him when they were firsties. She forgot if they ever managed to eventually. "
There are many cool things, did you see the portraits?" He must have passed them.
An amused smile tugged at the corner of her mouth hearing the boy analyze her personality.
Pragmatic and discreet, huh? Those were good traits, right? She hoped yes. And she wondered if she had met him sometimes other than these days, when she decided to give herself time away from people, would he have said the same. "
I wouldn't mind a sugarquill and two chocolate frogs right now," She told him watching as he started pulling out the goods.
His name?. "
Her name actually," She corrected him. "
Alexa, Lex for short. She's a Gryffindor and a candy addict." A frowning face of the lioness flashed in her head. Well, Cassia wouldn't say that in front of her.
