Because there was always that slim, slim chance. Which she didn't want to talk about. The poor Quidditch players: no wonder they'd all seemed to moody at the feast. She was going to miss watching the matches, which obviously paled in comparison. "Gryffindor? Why do you doubt it?"

Even though she'd doubted Ravenclaw as soon as the hat was off her head. "Wow. I can imagine. I'd love to go there, one day." You know, after she graduated and managed to get some money together. If that ever happened. "Oh.... I'm... I'm sorry," she managed softly, raising her eyes to the younger boy. "What does she do?" Because, he probably didn't want to talk about his fathers dying. It wasn't usually the thing you discussed with someone you met ten minutes ago.

He thought it was interesting? Maybe Connor was the crazy kid here. "Poland can get really cold. In the winter it's beautiful, though. The snow's perfect." And maybe she was getting a little nostalgic, now. Gosh, she didn't half miss her mama.
He nodded, Connor was happy to hear it wasn't bad or out of the ordinary to lose focus in a feast like that. But it was already such a Long day, how was he supposed to listen when he was tired and hungry? How was anyone? "Well, if you think the threat isn't anything to get too worried about, maybe you're right...you've been here before and i haven't." He had doubted Gryffindor for many reasons. "I don't feel like i'm any of the things great Gryffindors are supposed to be, Then again i don't really want to be great. I just want to be happy, But i'm not strong or brave or courageous." He actually felt he got scared rather easily.

"America is great, well..some of it, i haven't been to all of it. It's huge really..There are states bigger than England." he told her and then nodded, he was happy the focus of the conversation wasn't on his Father. "My Mom works at a bank..she's not a muggle but my Dad was so we lived in the muggle world for a while.. So, yeah..It's a really boring job." He didn't know if she knew anything about the muggle world, but he was a half-blood. "We never really had snow in Louisiana..i only saw it once or twice..I don't know.." Snow sounded fun..but he wasn't a big fan of any kind of cold really..even this seemed like a lot, he was dreading the winter.
