"Cause... between you and me," he mused, peering round the room to make sure it was only Lex listening, "I'm going to rule the world one day." So like, don't go telling everybody. It would be a SURPRISE.
But he'd gotten it!!! And this was definitely one of the more cooler places he'd seen of the castle so far. In fact, he might just visit here more often, an fight/duel when he was well and ready. Bombarda was a good spell to have in his pocket.
"Kitchens?" ... KITCHENS. That sounded about as amazing as dueling, equal footing right there. Head Girl Lex sure had some mighty fine ideas of what constituted exciting places in Hogwarts. "Recon they'll have cake?" Cake was always a winner. But in other words, yes he was done and ready to FEAST. Growing boys had appetites you know.
You know that moment when you heard something and it was just about the funniest thing you'd heard all morning but you didn't wanna hurt a Firstie's feelings so you kept the most solemn face ever? That was happening right now and Lex was actually proud of herself for not laughing. Kudos to her, yeah?
"Your secret's safe with me and even safer from this one girl named Maddie. Heard she wants to rule the world too. You might want to check her on that, get rid of the competition early on while she can't skin you alive with a flick of her wand."
Of course she didn't expect him to outright say it to her, she trusted Zeke had more tact than that.
"And of course they have cake." She confirmed with a grin before heading for the exit.
"They have everything down there. It's a Gryffindor's paradise."
As she left she was reminded of the days the entire Gryffindor Quidditch team would huddle up in the kitchens. Those were good days. Yup.
