Well this guy was rather friendly. Simon gave the Hufflepuff a grin and an excited nod. "Sure. Definitely." Then all of a sudden, the boy around his own age did another take. Simon blinked his eyes rather quickly when he listened to the other boy's response. He was baffled. "I am a third year. I should have said that I'm a transfer student," he explained with a rather sheepish grin. Simon certainly wasn't a first year nor did he want to be associated with the crazy likes of them. First years set people on fire.

Phrases? "Uh, sure. No worries," said Simon who was rather surprised for Kace's enthusiasm to learn more about Simon's country. He figured that it was a rather kind gesture from the Hufflepuff boy. He nodded "Yep, sunny and warm. It's perfect weather to play cricket on the beach and just relax..." he began and then stopped when he felt a shiver crawl up his back. Was that a spider? He moved one hand to his back to feel around, but couldn't find anything. He felt the shiver pass again. As they walked further and further, the passageway became colder and colder. "I did. What do you think that was or is?" asked Simon, glancing at Kace.
