She'd left these little details out when she told her friends. They only needed to hear about the fun parts.
"But to distract me from that, he took me to Italy to see my grandparents." The one's I'd never met before... The trip and the homeschooling was somewhat worth it. She hoped Professor What's-his-face didn't think she was spoiled or anything like that because she really wasn't. Her little brother was the spoiled one.
What was it with all those people thinking Hogwarts wasn't safe?! Those mentions in the speech at the start of term feast and now Fallon's father. He really needed to talk to somebody who had already been here for a couple of terms. They just had had a Triwizard Tournament after all where nobody had been hurt, how much more dangerous than that could it get?!
Maybe Fallon could answer some of his questions though.
"But why is he not comfortable with sending you here?!" Jeremy asked, trying to get some information out of this conversation. Italy? Nice, he had never been there but he had heard it was nice.

Legend blinked, slightly confused. That was...kind of close to his situation. But his was more simple? Or...more confusing. It depended on how you looked at it. "Er- did that happen to you Sir?" He did seem slightly bitter on the subject. Reaching over Legend gave him two small pats on the back. "There, there. Don't worry dude, they are a real pain." He would tell him to let it all out, but they were guys..and he was a professor....so that was weird.
"Alright so- there's this girl who I do not like. Cause she's my friend but she likes me- or said she did." Legend shrugged, whatever old news. "But then after I found out over the summer that she dated my Ex-Best friend- and i was like DUDE I thought you liked me. Not that I cared or anything but....Ex-Best friend ya know?" Where was he getting with this? Oh yeah! Girls...confusing. "And then last year my other friend went and kissed me! But...she still considered herself my friend! How does that even make sense?" It didn't too him. It was completely bonkers!!
"Yeah! Let's play Rub-" Aww man! Come on Zoo! Rugby would have been fun to play too. Sigggh. "I dunno! You're a smart dude you can make something up." He coooould if he tried! "Sure! That would be awesome! We could stop and say hi to Barty the Squid while we're at it!" That was the Giant Squid's name right? Legend was unsure but he was pretty certain it was. "Come on, last year we saw Giant Spiders in the forbidden forest, in one class. You gotta top that Sir."
It wasn't until Legend actually reached out to pat him that Jeremy realized what exactly he had just said.
Oops. Trying to do damage control - who knew how gossipy Legend was - he put on a grin and quickly shook his head.
"I was just using it as an example...and to get you talking." He added with a rather cheeky smile, while leaning in again to be able to hear his little story.
Oh, teenage drama, how I love thee. Jeremy wasn't sure he had got everything about who had kissed whom and who liked whom and who was whose ex. No, not even ex, but ex-best friend. Right, because that all made sense. Not.
"So hang on, let me get this straight. You like this girl...who likes you too, but then she kissed your best friend. Sorry, no ex-best friend. And then there's this other girl who kissed you?" Somehow he had the feeling that the most confusing part about this all was that Legend himself didn't know what he wanted.
The boy had honestly believed that he was going to play Rugby with them. Seriously.
"We'd need way too many cushioning charms than appropriate for a Muggle Studies lesson. Besides, I do have a curriculum, I can't just teach whatever I like." This term more than ever. He truely considered the trammeling option for a moment. Pay the Giant Squid a visit? See if he actually existed.
"But then again, what's so exciting about trammeling. I'm sure you'd all get bored with it pretty quickly." Hearing his comment about giant spiders in the Forbidden Forest he chose not to comment but just raised his eyebrows at him.

And while I do have a unique ability to give a psychological profile of almost everyone I meet I can only observe so much about a building." Heather may have only been eleven but she liked surprising adults with her somewhat vast knowledge. "Yes, you will most definitely see me in your class. I do quite love to study muggles. There's not really a class here I wouldn't want to take. To be honest though, Professor Lafay scares me a little bit." She smirked.
Forgive her? She was actually apologizing?
"Oh, don't worry about it." Jeremy dismissed her apology with a grin before adding,
"Where did your parents go to school then if I may ask? Either way, I'd advise you to read Hogwarts, A History then." Because a) reading was awesome and b) the book in particular was both interesting and entertaining, so what was not to like?
Hecate? Somehow she seemed to have that effect on people. Most of them anyhow.
"Hehe, oh, how's that? Why does she scare you? Is that related to your psychological profiling ability?" He was just a little sceptic about how good Heather was at this, since he knew from his brother how hard it was to do it.

Father shares everything with my brothers and I, everything but why..." he had changed his name, which Kurumi had only just learned from some library research. "...mother is the way she is. Growing up..."
Bored with all the talking, Walnut found his new surroundings much more interesting and jumped off his master's lap to sniff the strange man's shoe. Not a bad smell, but not a good one either. Walnut wasn't very fond of the scent of leather. Oh? A table? Wonder what is on top of it?! Shaking his bottom a bit before he jump, Walnut landed with the grace of a Cornish Pixie on Professor Zookara's desk and waddle right in front of the man hardly giving him a second look. Oh? Funny flat box looking things! Walnut then jumped across and onto the table where the professor had set up many photo frames that faced the opposite direction and pawed at one knocking it over. Walnut peered down at it and sniffed it before moving on to the next one...and the next one...
"...until I came to Hogwarts," Kurumi finished looking up at the professor for some advice. Just then, she noticed Walnut was missing. She had been so focused on telling her story that she had lost track of her cat!
This...was honestly breaking his heart. Kurumi just looked so sad, and now even a little ashamed. This was so wrong.
"You sure? What if I talked to her? I am from a Muggle family." He wasn't sure if this made any difference or not but it was at least worth a try.
"Oh, I'm sure she does have reasons, I wasn't suggesting she doesn't." Otherwise she would just be a horribly injust mother. He just didn't believe that they were justified when it came to her children...and her husband too apparently.
Too lost in thought about how to handle the situation, Jeremy completely missed the fact that the cat had left its position and was now on the move. It was only when it was practically IN HIS FACE that he noticed it being anywhere but Kurumi's lap.
"Get it offffffffff!!" He slowly inched forward slightly, and pulled the already knocked over pictures towards him to safety.
Veeeeeeeeery slooooooooowly, so as to not provoke the cat.
