He's not so old nor so young. He's not so strict nor so easy." Well, what was he like then? Louisa found herself staring blankly at Adam, "I guess he's just... average." If that made sense to him.

Was she scaring instead of reassuring him? "All I know is he gives very god speeches at the beginning and the end of each term. He used to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts subject and older students told me he was really good." And it was enough. "I don't know why so many staff left us, though." She frowned thoughtfully. The Pirates thing might be something but Professor Vee didn't resign nor did Madam Donovan....

...right?

She didn't know yet. "When we see the new staff we can make our guesses." The girl concluded loudly.
"I love old buildings," Adam said with a smile. "I can only imagine how amazing it will be to live in a castle." A lot of Adam's other schools had been pretty, but none of them had the historical feel that he was sure Hogwarts did. All that detail spread across such a great amount of things and space was surely going to be breath taking.

Adam looked at Louisa as she struggled to describe Headmaster Tate. "So basically he's just right?" Adam asked with a little smirk, figuring that she would get the Goldie Locks and the Three Bears reference. After all if she got the superhero references surely she would get that, right? Honestly Adam had met so many witches and wizards with such little muggle knowledge or experience that it was nice to have someone that understood where he was coming from.

"Well I guess all we can hope is that they'll be at least somewhat nice and that they'll teach us useful things within their given field." After all knowledge that they could use in the real world was what they looked for in their classes, right?
