My parents are muggles... wanted me to be normal, but they also didn't want me to burn the house down when I get angry, so they just brought in a private teacher..." she explained sadly. Frankly her knowledge of magic in general was very limited, let alone knowing anything about Hogwarts.

As the girl joined her on the ground, it brightened Sutton's spirits slightly. "My name is Sutton. What's yours?"
"Well I am honestly not sure there is another Whomping Willow... never heard of one. May be THE Whomping Willow," she pointed out with a nod. "I strongly suggest you DO read about Hogwarts, then. There is a lot of things that go on around here that you could do well to know about," she said with a more vigorous nod.

Addy was not sharing with a total stranger, but she did nod as the girl spoke. Of course, her dad was a Wizard so... that was not how she was raised, but she could dig the whole situation. She could indeed.

"You can call me Addy. It's nice to meet you, Sutton. Where are you from?" Perhaps if she met enough American's they could start a support group. Heh.
