Or had hoped that Donny would end up being a sassy one himself? Because it sounded like the kind of name you'd say while snapping your fingers at someone. But then again, his surname was Whitlock; do you know how many padlock related jokes he had received growing up? Jeez. "Good to meet you, Donny. You have an interesting name," he said, shaking the boy's hand. What? It WAS true.
Don'cha!
Sassy Loony needed this name. Not freaking Hopscotch. "The name's Grayson. Grayson Whitlock. I don't know what nickname you can come up from that but you can try to give me one." This was the boy's first test: coming up with a decent nickname. And jeez, Donny was talking FAST. Someone had taken their happy-bouncy potion today. "Yeah, I am. Is it that obvious?" Was this kid boring? Had his former school sent him off because he didn't talk? Donnacha scrunched up his face and after some thinking decided that that was impossible, schools weren't allowed to be mean.
Was his name strrrange? Having heard his name all thirteen and three quarters of his life Donny didn't think his name was strange at all. He'd heard weirder names. Shruuug. "Int'resting? How? There's a famous Quiddisher and and he calls me Crabhands Boy!" Donny told him and snapped his fingers like a crab. Some info to impress the guy! So far he didn't seem very impressed by Donny.. or maybe he was just freaking out over new stuff. New people. New school. New.. shoes? Donnacha quickly checked stranger's shoes. ..Looking good.
Grayson. Gray. Son.... Grayson. Did his dad have grey hair? Because son, y'know. Ooh, and he got to pick a nickname. That would have to wait until he got to know Grayson though, it had to be a good one. Donny Dolphin was good, because he liked dolphins. DID GRAYSON LIKE GREY? Grrrayson Whitlock. Almost like the colours. "Grey and white. Sort of. But that's not your nickname, no. I haven't gots one for you yet!" Deep breath. He hurried on, just to make sure that he wouldn't forget what he was going to say. "Why is it a nickname? D'you know?!" He might!
Of course it was obvious! New faces were just about as obvious as could be, most people didn't change face over summer. "Weeell... Just the diff'rent face thing. Uhuh. What year are you in?!"
