My mum and dad didn't really want me at Hogwarts so they sent me to Beauxbatons." She hadn't really minded where she went, but knew that both schools were very well recommended.

She did wonder what made him guess Beauxbatons though. Did she look that stuck up? She felt many of the girls there had been like that, but she'd been quite the odd one out of the group. More into what fit well and what was more comfortable. Not showing off whatever she got during holidays and such.

She still didn't know how old he was, must be around her age, but wasn't sure. You never could be too sure unless you outright asked. And wasn't that rude to do? Well, hmm maybe a question that might give her an idea. As they reached the short line of people waiting their turn for hot dogs she turned to him again "So what have you done since school?" she asked curiously.
Jonathan tilted his head ever so slightly as he registered her smile only then followed up by an answer to the affirmative confirning his guess of Beaubaxtons. "Ah...well yeah Hogwarts isn't every parents first choice I guess," he replied before realizing it might sound a little stuck up of him about his own school. "I mean every school has its plusses and good in their own way else they wouldn't all exist," Jonathan added quickly trying to try and save himself. He wasn't even thinking on the reasons why his guess or assumption may have seemed even a little judgemental. Not that he had meant it in any way like that....he had simply deducted it by the information he had been given.

Great going Bennett...

And as much as he seemed good at putting things together, the auror wasn't thinking that the questions directed his way had any other meaning other then curiousity and getting to know the person that they had each been paired up with. "Training for a while..." he answered as they waited on the line at the hot dog vendor, turning to keep his attention on his companion but keeping track of things in front of them out of the corner of his eye. "And then working cases as an auror." That was a revelation that could go both ways good or bad from his experience. Either people who were turned off by having a law man around or being so into what they thought was an extremely exciting yet dangerous occupation.

Jonathan was about to return the favor asking the question of Stef when the vendor cleared his throat lightly to get their attention, the auror glancing at the man before back at his companion. "One or two?" he asked politely not wanting to assume anything about her eating habits, gingerly motioning for her to submit her order first though he would be covering both.
