Man… Brody wanted to drown in them. For that reason, he completely missed the comment of the other young man agreeing with him.

Maybe he missed the shocked expression too. Okay, he did, and he would blame it all on those brown eyes. As for revealing his Hogwarts House, Brody wasn’t sure why he was being mysterious. Then again, mysteries kept things interesting right? That meant there was a possibility that it could keep Gabriel interested.

Wasn’t this conversation taking an interesting turn? Brody forgot all about lunch and his homework. He found conversing with Gabriel so easy, even though it was in Spanish and he was certain there were words he messed up. The younger man was so surprised to learn that there was a possibility that Gabriel may know Uncle Lucas.

“He taught at Castelobruxo for a few years so he learnt it while living in Brasil. He taught there from 2086 to 2088, I think. Do you know him?’’

Gabriel was making quick observations. About his orange. It was supposed to be seedless, but it definitely had seeds. And, like, a few minor observations about Brody. For example, that the man was really kind of staring him down. It was...flattering? Unnerving? Who wanted eye contact while they were chewing? Brody, apparently--well, no, because Brody wasn't chewing.

He put down his orange. He needed Brody to look at his own food, because Gabriel needed to spit out one of the aforementioned seeds.

And, though he was frequently uncomfortable here at the Ministry, or frankly, in London, he felt somehow extra uncomfortable.

Was spitting out orange seeds with eye contact an outlandishly rude thing to do here? He had no idea. Probably best not to risk it. This was his workplace, after all. He didn't want to mess up this YATI thing, he wanted to be an Auror more than...well, more than he loved his mother. Who would probably tell him not to make eye contact whilst spitting out the orange seeds.

What about Castelobruxo?

Gabriel didn't catch the whole of what Brody had just said, but he heard the name of the school, and the years, and was able to draw some conclusions. Thanks to that YATI training. He shook his head. "No, that was before me," he said, trying not to open his mouth too much lest the awkward orange seeds fall out while Brody was still staring at him.
