 Wowza!
Giving on Derf's conspiracies for the moment, Levi began sipping on his hot chocolate. He tried very hard not to consider mulling over the discovery of Professor Newton's good looks so he focused on his surroundings instead. Jessa Cambridge looked tired and she received a small smile; he'd completely missed her when he first arrived. Cassie got a wider smile because friends were always nice to see. Then Althea showed up and she also looked tired, which he supposed was a result of OWLs. He nodded along to her request, though did wonder if his detailed (yet completely messy) Potions notes from the previous term had been of any help at all.
Probably not.
Ilvermorny continued to be the main topic of conversation of the whole school year, it seemed, and Levi continued to drink his hot chocolate. He set down the half empty cup and looked for his journal, in which he quickly began taking some notes. Presidents. Or a president. The Americans' answer to the United Kingdom's Minister for Magic.
"President." Hm. "It seems to me that the American government, just like ours, takes some cues from our muggle counterparts." He tried not to grin at the irony of it all. "Which is funny when you consider the way wizardkind spent centuries looking down on muggles--or no-majs in this case." And he supposed that plenty of wizards still did. Ridiculous. He was largely uninterested in what the muggle world had to offer--there was just too much to get his hands to in his own world of magic--but to underestimate muggles had always struck the boy as foolish. They'd managed thus far without magic just fine so much that they didn't need it at all. Muggles were a forced to be reckoned with and Levi felt sorry for anyone who thought otherwise."We're always borrowing from their culture, are we not?" Trains, cars, pants. Name it and wizards had adapted it for their own. "It's interesting. But, anyway, MACUSA--" To get back to the topic at hand, "--the headquarters are in New York."
