Also the robes. They didn't have to be in those yet did they? The older kids weren't in them so Gwen wasn't putting them on yet. She wasn't going to comment on it though. Might as well not make him anymore uncomfortable. He might be her only friend for this ride.

"I know one person. His name is Hugo." And why were all the people she was meeting that were her age boys? Where was that magical girl bff she needed for her time at Hogwarts? "Lessons that are a mix of practical and magic, fun things to do on the grounds. Stuff like that."

Gwen was still deciding what to call this kid. But everything she was thinking of was weird to her and she didn't know actually how weird he was.
Was he.. that unusual? No one he knew ate candy, except for that one kid who would sneak out and get muggle snacks sometimes...

"My parents don't allow candy of any sort in our house," he explained straightforwardly. He said it rather matter-of-factly, though her addition of "live under a rock," had him feeling ab it uneasy internally. He paused, then, thinking about his bean predicament, and laughed. "My governess snuck me some extra galleons when we did my supply shopping, though, so the first thing I did was come right to the food trolley. But I didn't know what to get!"

He listened intently as she talked about Hogwarts, though it wasn't painting a much clearer picture than the brief conversation he'd had with Seren, who had admittedly gone to Hogwarts something like a million years ago. "I suppose we'll find out more when we arrive!"
