"You're welcome." Hehe.
Okay, time for fun! Forrest followed her curiously and happily as he listened to her. He was, basically, copying her every movement: he looked at her when she looked at him, he looked at the cages she was looking at the same time--he even managed to turn his head simultaneously with her. He didn't want to miss a thing, and he figured he would ensure that only by copying her, since she was the knowledgeable one.
"Like gold and silver or anything shiny like metals?" A treasure hunting! That sounded so much fun! His face shone with excitement, and he wished he was a third year already. His question was answered though when she removed her watch. He didn't believe the watch to be silver... right?
Anyways, back to FUN. He narrowed his eyes, stepped a few centimetres short of the bars and gave them a looooong, thoughtful look.
"They're cu--cooooool!" He exclaimed, eyes still on the creatures. He had refrained from using the word 'cute' because it was girly. He then glanced back at her with a grin. "I wonder whether pirates had some."
SEE SEE! He laughed. She still was funny though and hadn't lost that trait due to certain changes that had occurred lately. Good to know she had a tighter grip on herself and feelings. At least she managed to turn it off at times, or push it to the back of her mind. Now can she ruffle Forrest's hair again? And maybe pinch his cheeks? He'd probably mind. No kid liked to be treated like one. She knew that very well. So she thought better and refrained from squeezing him in a hug.
Cassia tilted her head at the creatures, and took in the little details about them. They pretty much looked like the ones back at school. Different sizes that's all. She nodded as Forrest's question, "
Mhhmm. Or anything that might catch the light and reflect it," And as she said that, she unclasped her watch and shoved it into her pocket. Juuuust to be safe.
She glanced at him as he stood there watching them with such passion. She was glad he enjoyed this better than the flobberworms. She wouldn't have wanted to suggest seeing something more boring.
"
They are!" She responded his excitement channeling to her tone. The snake only needed a nudge to get all excited, dramatic and squeaky. And the other way around. She paused upon hearing his question seriously thinking about it and considering it.
"
If they weren't Muggles they might have had," And that somehow reminded her of herself and closest friends starting a pirating team. They were first years! "
Though, they must have used them on land, I don't think nifflers swim," They were never told about this. She glanced at the machine while digging in her pocket to retrieve the coins she had. Her tips for the day at the Leaky!
