"Laura? I guess I can call you by your informal first name if that is what you'd like. I, however, would approve of you calling me Mr, not Dr. Stryer." He hadn't gotten muliplte doctorate degrees from university for some girl to call him by his first name. "What shall you require of me today?" he said squinting his brown eyes at her.

<snip>
Another child, well Augustus had to admit that they were at least polite. Manners had changed with the times, people weren't quite so formal nowadays but then again his collegues had always had their heads in the clouds and didn't have much time for extra curtesies.

"Afternoon Ethan." He said as he searched the boy's face with his brown eyes. He seemed true enough. "I shouldn't see a problem answer a few innocent question, ask away son."

A Ravenclaw? How nice. They were quite intelligent he had learned from the years being in the Castle.

"Pleasure to meet you Mr. Vanderbilt, Dr. Augustus Von Stryer, at your service." he greeted the boy, slowly blinking with his brown eyes. The boy seemed to be an upright boy and hardworking. "Oh just now? No it was not long, Clive just found it rude but he is known to overreact." He said with a bit of humor in his tone. That man was so full of himself and had such a big head it was a wonder who he fit in his frame.

Ah so he was a doctor "What are you a doctor of if you dont mind my asking Sir?" Doctorates, regardless of specialization, is a long and arduous process to complete, if one completes it at all for that matter.

His gaze shifted to Laura when the portrait responded to her. Oops? First lesson learned in social etiquette eh little Badger? "I usually go by Vickers, its my nickname..." he says, just so the man doesnt have to use the Ravenclaw's last name if he doesnt want to, given that it is a mouthful "How do you want to be referred to Sir? Dr Von Stryer?"
