SPOILER!!: Mr. Treyen Lockhart

Treyen was about to mention that his own dad didn't look as the Jack from 20 years ago, but never got around to say it, because there seemed to be something else behind Kurumi's story, or rather, Kurumi's father's. Plus, she was clearly wondering way too many things. Why did she seem so agitated? It couldn't be just for the picture, right? It certainly couldn't, because there were more than a couple of books next to her.

Official Ambassador to Asia? That was kind of amazing, actually. But strange enough that Kurumi was looking for information about her father in the Library here at Hogwarts. "If you don't mind me asking," he started to say, leaning towards Kurumi, "What are you looking for? I mean, couldn't you just ask your father about it?" why was it that Treyen Lockhart seemed to be one of the few that could ask his dad almost anything and still get an answer? "I may be able to help you," like, for real this time, because if she had to go through all those books, well, it'll be taking her forever to finish.

But then she--OH. Touché. He had to smile at her boldness, even if he did notice the blush this time, "I think all my parchments would say 'Kurumi Hollingberry' if I did copy yours," Kurumi Hollingberry with hearts around it "I only make sure I'm doing the right thing," he said, and winked. Doing the right thing by copying. Now, that was a little bit like Gilderoy.

And then he raised his eyebrow at her, "I...kind of have to disagree, I hate numbers," yes, he was being completely honest about that. But, he was sort of intrigued by something Hadley had mentioned the last time they met.

Also, you know what? "For all it's worth, I prefer Kurumi Hollingberry than Gaunt, by the way."

Kurumi frowned a bit more as she glanced back at the picture and the description. That was just the problem though, she couldn’t just walk up and ask him about it. Every time he talked about his past, it was that he had always worked for the Japanese Ministry of Magic. The story she had been told was that after graduating from Hogwarts, he took a few years to study at some Wizarding universities in Europe and studied a semester abroad in Japan. It was during that time that he had met her mother and had put in his application with the Japanese Ministry to work in the International Magical Cooperation Department.

I’m looking for answers,” Kurumi said simply shrugging her shoulders. “Father never mentioned any of this to me. He said he has always worked in Japan and never anywhere else.” And clearly he wasn’t very good at covering his tracks. Closing the book and hugging it close to her chest, Kurumi looked Treyen in the eye and her own violet ones shimmered a bit as tears began to form. “T-T-Treyen…I met a woman last term in Hogsmeade…s-s-she knew my father. Well, the him who was called Charles Gaunt…” She paused for a moment as her eyes flicked towards the stack of Daily Prophets. “He…He…He died…

Thankfully, the prefect provided a pleasant distraction that turned her hair a slight tinge of pink. It was more a really REALLY dark magenta that most would not notice if they just took a quick glance at her. However, as each beat of her racing heart pounded in her chest, the change became more obvious. “I-I don’t always know what I am doing though,” she squeaked blushing a bit more. Although she wouldn’t mind if he changed her name to Mrs. Kurumi Lockhart with hearts around it. “Although, Arithmancy makes more sense to me than some other subjects do. With numbers, there really is no debating if it is a 7 or a 3. Numbers are numbers. Sometimes, with tea readings and the like, there is so much room for error. The difference between a giraffe and a shoe in one’s cup is very different.” Not that the two objects looked anything alike.

The slight frown on her lips disappeared with his next comment. “I think I prefer it as well,” she giggled.
