How often was it that a wizard had a chance to talk about muggle things like football (soccer), movies, cars, television, and all other amazing things the muggle world consisted of with someone in a magic school?! "Either way, you should consider following your mum's footsteps. You'd make a pretty good eye doctor, I think," he added with a confident nod. Though it wasn't always smart to take advice from someone like Brae.
The boy smiled politely as the mystery girl then shared her name with him. Ellie. Nice. He liked short names; they were easier to remember. He laughed as she pointed out that it was odd meeting the way they did. It was true; but for some reason Braeden always seemed to meet people in odd ways; there was no such thing as 'normal' for him, it seemed. "I'm in Gryffindor," he shared. "You?"
Ellie shrugged.
"Well my mum is a muggle. But my dad was a wizard." And a great one at that.
"What about your parents?" She asked. It was always fun to meet wizards who knew about muggle stuff. True, she hadn't really paid attention to muggle stuff. Except soccer and a little television, but it was still fun. She laughed when he told her she'd make a good eye doctor. Riiight. Follow in her mother's footsteps? She'd rather not.
"Oh, I think I'll pass on that one. I'm more of an... artsy type of person." Yup. She looked up at the sunny sky.
Another Gryffindor. She nodded.
"I've met a couple of your kind today." Your kind? What was that supposed to mean? Sounded like she was reffering to an alien species or something... Er..
"I'm in Ravenclaw. House of the nerds." She said with a wink. Well, it was true.
