Although, in this case, she was the one more familar with the area than he was, so thar gave her a tiny confidence boost.
"So...why did you transfer to Hogwarts?" she asked as her curiosity got the better of her. "Unless, you know, it is, um, too personal...then, you don't have to tell me." She waved her hands in front of her face frantically. She was just all over the place recently making assumptions and asking things she probably ought not to.
"Aye Lass, Scottish." He said with a smile. "Nay, not really, but I'm just over the border so it's not too far. Actually Hogwarts isn't too far from Me home. Far enough though, considering he wouldn't be able to see his family for nearly a year and that hurt. he sighed and leaned his head back against the shelves.
"Well me da's in the military and we tend to get transferred from place ta place everywhere. For example At Christmas me home was Japan and I spent it there, then I found out we were transferred again nid-term so home was New York till last week. But during all this I was at Drumstrang and Hated it. Me mom promised me when we landed roots back at home we'd stay cause da was retiring to work for the ministry."
