Hogwarts RPG Name: Amur Neverwinter Fourth Year | LOL I was wondering what butterer was (but was too lazy to look at the menu XD) ~ Rise and Rise Again, Until Lambs become Lions ~ SPOILER!!: Zekesters! <3 Quote:

What he didn't understand though was the whole weird concoction thing. HOW was butterbeer a weird concoction? Then again he supposed for a muggle it would be - he'd adapted to it very quickly though. "Okay," he agreed, leaning against the bench to await his turn to order for them.
And so a butterbeer it would be... because, that's what she wanted, right? A butterbeer? He realised that the syllables weren't quite right, but he was excellent at reading between lines and making interpretations that weren't quite there. "Coming' right up," he grinned.
Did he think it was possible to work at the school over the summer? ... Yes? And the reason he thought this was simply because there were animals and plants that needed caring for even when they were not there. And he couldn't imagine Professor Thompson taking all the creatures home with him. No, there would HAVE to be an on-campus carer. "Plants and animals need sustenance, somebody would have to be there to keep things in check. I doubt they lock up the school and let them fend for themselves." And what of the caretaker? Surely he would have to be around as well. SURELY.
And say what now? She was buying? Zeke shrugged. "Sure," and so when it was their turn to order he relayed their beverages of choice. "Two butterbeers thanks," he grinned at Mr Lagerty. Cool dude he was. Cool dude.
Turning back to Amur he cocked his head to one side and then the other. "I have to go to this hearing thing in a court, about changing my name. The forms are all filled, just need mum to sign it and lodge it... so I need to properly talk her into it, but then I have to answer questions about being okay with it and all." Complicated stuff it seemed. Go figure HE signed the paper too. Amur gave her friend a long, skeptical sidelong glance. She'd been told doing so could make some people uncomfortable, or think her strange, but she hadn't really listened. The point was the look was supposed to be strange, because whoever was recieving it was being strange. Some people, just didn't know how to read body language. "I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they did. Do it with the elves." Yes, she was still on that train, and no she wasn't getting off it till each elf had ten pairs of their own socks. But then, the animals often looked better off than the elves, so maybe Zeke had a point. Amur let out a huff of air and crossed her arms. "I suppose though, you might have a point."
Another sidelong look, because important issues number two. "How were you not sorted as a Raven?" Wasn't calling him non-brave or anything like that, he just had more brains than the average Gryffindor, which, admittedly, wasn't very hard.
She'd let him think about his answer to that one as she moved up to pay for the drinks, thanking the man behind the counter as coin was exchanged for two heavy-handled mugs. She returned to Zeke's side and looked out over the room, nodding her chin in the direction of an empty table as he took to his explanation.
A thoughtful twist of her lips, both in contemplation of his words and concentration to not spill a drop as they went along. "Sounds complicated. But, why would you have to talk your mom into it? Shouldn't she be all for it?" He was changing his name to her's, right? Because he was a Rogers at the moment, and that, as far as she could remember hearing, wasn't his mom's name. "And why would they need to ask you more questions? Isn't fairly simple? Do you want to or not? Yes. Done. No. Rejected. Stamped. Signed. Filed. Done."
Red tape. She didn't understand it.
