"Wow really? That's awesome." Azura said with a smile up at the boy.. She was so used to how everyone in England sounded that different accents were so amazing!

She grinned warmly at him as he spoke, her purple eyes sparkling at her words.."We are rather proper aren't we?" She asked him as she took a breath and spoke in her most English of accents.. "Would you like a spot of tea? She said with a giggle.

Only to have her smile a fade a bit at her compliment!

"Oh Goodness, I meant that as a good thing! You accent is subtle and yet it comes out at time and it's just perfect.." She bit her lip and started to play with the ends of her black hair a bit nervously..

Gahh.. her mouth sometimes!
Thinking about the possibilities of taking the wrong train, Japser grinned back at Azura. "It'd be an adventure," he commented, the grin firm on his face as he just imagined how that would go. "But Hogwarts will be too," that was definite in his opinion. It was a magical school! With real magic! Real creatures! It was like a whole new world inside of the world that he lived in. A real one, not just one that he'd sketch when he was bored!

He couldn't help but laugh as she spoke in a posh English accents. On one hand, it somehow seemed to work and yet on another, it didn't really work for her. Maybe that's what she meant when she'd commented on his accent?

For a moment he contemplated answering in a British accent, but paused, figuring he'd probably just torture it. So, to exaggerate her poshness he grinned, falling back into his own thick Australian accent. "I'd love a cuppa, mate."

He cringed at the situation he had caused, noticing the way her smile faded and she tried to explain herself. His face flushed again at the term 'perfect', before realising he should probably try to put her back at ease.

He had no idea how to do that though....

"No, no... I didn't mean it like that! I didn't think you meant it badly" he blurted out, trying his hardest to find the words he needed. "Like, I just didn't really know how to respond? I took it as a compliment and I completely understand what you mean, like I think the same thing about your accent with what you just showed me! It's just I was wondering what I could even say in response to that! Honestly though you have a perfect accent," at that his eyes widened again, cutting off his own rambling. She had called his accent perfect, and it was true he thought hers was also nice, but he hadn't meant to say that. He found himself flushed red again, green eyes darting to the ground as he ran a hand through his hair. "Um... like it really suits you?"

He really deserved an award for the worst conversationalist ever.

The only good thing was he was once again able to only mentally facepalm.
