"I hope you don't mind the company as we are headin in the same direction. It's too nice a day to apparate."
Ryoma nodded. "I do." That even earned his chest puffing out a bit. It was a rather large accomplishment for someone who hadn't even hit 30 yet. Not only that, but the person he had inherited the place from had gone on to be the Minister of Magic. Yep. Ryoma knew people in high places even if they had no clue who he was most likely. He and Alexander hadn't really been close while working together. "Nice to meet you Gabi," he said adding a little wink. Old habits died hard it seemed. "I'm Ryoma and this is my, erm, my goddaughter, Kurumi." That was a weird word to use. Goddaughter. Merlin did he suddenly feel OLD. "We aren't really heading in any particular direction. I just needed to get this one out of the Leaky for a bit," he explained, jabbing his finger in Kurumi's direction.
Kurumi sort of just stood there. She was used to being the youngest in a setting of entirely adults - it had been her entire upbringing until Hogwarts after all, but if this what what it was going to be like every time Ryoma took her out to 'keep her mind off other things' then she would rather be back at the Leaky Cauldron shut up in her room reading about magical creatures or getting a head start on learning new Transfiguration spells - their concepts anyway. Sixteen wasn't old enough for her to be able to perform magic outside of school.
She bowed her head again to the girl. "
Nice to meet you."
