 Slytherindor ♛ The Crazytastic Besties ♛ Shan Watson ♛
Brr.. It was rather chilly today. He was glad that he had brought a pair of gloves and his Slytherin scarf with him. Simon folded his arms and walked briskly out of the castle and over to the Black Lake. A couple of snowflakes lazily fell. Seeing snow falling during November was a rather odd concept for Simon as he was used to November being much sunnier back home from where he was from. He smiled to himself, thinking of how his family must have been on the beach enjoying the warm weather back in Melbourne.
As he made his way over to the Lake, he saw the two Professors standing together. Behind the Professors were a lare amount of winged horses by the Lake with carriages beside them. His eyes widened when he saw a magnificent creature that did not look like the rest of the group. Was that a Thestral? he thought as he glanced at it. He'd only read about them in various textbooks, but he had never encountered one before. It reminded him of the car crash... He pulled himself away from that thought. He couldn't think about it right now.
"Hello Professor Fuller. Professor Thompson. I'm Simon Holden," he said as he gave them a shy grin and headed over towards the blankets. He placed his backpack down on the ground gently and tried to look preoccupied by gathering out a textbook. He glanced up and smiled at the other boy who had arrived early then he went back to his business. Simon was a rather awkward child who didn't know how to interact too well with adults. Once he realized that he was one of the first students there, he decided that it would be good to speak to the Professors for they were just people too. "Err.. How are you both on this brisk morning?" he said.
