Distracted by other things, Piers didn't really catch onto the past use of 'had' and 'was'. "You have a pet duck? I wonder if they'll let you bring it." Because the list just said rat, toad, owl, or cat, didn't it? Hmm. A duck was kind of a strange pet to have, but that was cool. Piers looked at Javy when he mentioned pranking and started grinning. "Good thinking." Maybe he SHOULD keep the toad. He could put it in Susie Anders' hair!
What's a Hufflepuff? Piers gave him a quizzical look. "It's one of the houses at Hogwarts. There's four. Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin." Maybe he didn't have older siblings or neighbors with older siblings to talk about Hogwarts stuff. But Piers didn't have any siblings either, and he had learned a lot of this stuff from his dad, since he had gone to Hogwarts. "My dad was in Gryffindor, but he doesn't mind what house I get." Shrug.
So, his family lived and worked on the farm. He would have thought his farm had people to do the work for them. If they sold all the food, couldn't they afford it? Piers' face changed a little bit when Javy mentioned that his parents were muggles. "Oh." He tossed another shirt onto his shoulder. "I've never met anyone whose mom and dad were muggles." He pondered that for a moment. That must be why Javy didn't know much about Hogwarts houses. "That's cool, though. You must be wicked good at magic." It made sense in his head. All that muggle blood and then - BAM! Outta nowhere, there was a wizard. He had to be pretty special, right? |
