Scratching the back of his neck with his free hand as he listened, Mason tried understand how candy was made and even made a mental note to try and make some when they were back at school. Surely the muggle studies room still had a computer right?

"I should check out one of those factories then!" if he had learned this much from a younger student, imagine how much he would learn from professionals! "Do you think the employees of this shop secretly eat some of the candies while working?" he asked as he looked around them. "I know i would" he laughed. Bad example from an older student? Nah!....ok probably...

She owned a firebolt x-treme? That was so cool! He did not laugh at her for naming her broom because Mason would have done the same thing if he had thought about it. "i used to have a Nimbus G 3. But it went to my nephew because i couldn't use it anymore" no space to fly without muggles noticing and his parents wanted him to focus on his studies instead of being with his heads in the clouds. Literally.

......wait...plane? He knew what that was! Those giant robot birds in the sky! Mason looked at Hadley with a concerned expression on his face. "its safe right? I mean, i know those things don't fly with magic....how does it even stay in the air? And MOVE?! ....no wait. Don't tell me, i want to find this out myself!" muggle library here he comes!

"Nope never" he said as Hadley asked if he had ever been to California. "I haven't been further than Germany and France for holidays" one day maybe? "But if California is your home, why didn't you go to Ilvermorny?"
It didn't take long for Hadley to realize she probably lost Mason while describing to process. "Sorry," she said sheepishly. "But, yeah, take a factory tour if you ever get the chance. It makes a lot more sense when you can see all the machines in action."

Did she think the employees snuck little pieces of candy for themselves? "Yeah, of course they do." Although...she didn't actually know that. "Probably. I definitely would if I worked here too." And then she'd probably get fat, and her sister and she wouldn't be identical anymore...and that just felt sad. Nevermind they weren't exactly identical right now, given the fact Natalie's hair was still blonde and Hadley had hers dyed red.

She shook her thoughts away. Wait. "Why can't you use it anymore?" Did he get into trouble and had it taken away or something? That was usually the reason for when Hads couldn't use something or hers. But still, she got the thing back eventually.

"Yeah, they're really safe." The occasional crash did happen, but they weren't that common. Hads was just about to explain how flight worked, from her understanding of it at least. Which admittedly she learned from a kid's movie. But it was more sumplified fact than made up for an audience of kids. But Mason wanted to learn it on his own. Cool. She could respect that.

Wait, he had been to Germany and France? "Awesome! I've always wanted to visit those countries!" But yeah California. "You should totally visit if you ever get a chance. It's great." No, she wasn't biased. Well, maybe a little. "Oh! Yeah. Well, we moved to London just before my 11th birthday. Mom got offered the chance to be head chef at a new 5-star restaurant opening up here, and that was a huge opportunity for her, so we moved. I didn't even know I was a witch until I moved here. But, yeah. I live in London, so Hogwarts is the school I go to."
