So they were almost the same age. He nodded. "I like it a lot better over at Hogwarts. The Professors are much nicer." Plus the Professors took a genuine interest in what you were researching. Ooh, he had to make a mental note about going to see the Potions master. It was almost February so he had to get that done soon.
He chuckled, thinking that Kace may have seen too many episodes of Steve Irwin shouting that phrase in his broad Queensland accent. Simon had an accent that was more similar to a British one as he was from Melbourne. He was a city boy. Not a small town boy livin' in a lonely world. He was the exact opposite of that. "Yep, that's one of them. We like to shorten words a lot. So my sister's name is Allison, but we call her Allie. And there's a huge shopping centre in Chadstone, but we call it Chaddie," he said, beginning his lesson on australianisms to the Hufflepuff boy. With Kace knowing some of these sayings then perhaps someone could understand him for once? Yes. That seemed good.
"A ghost down here? Exciting!" said Simon as he pulled his wand closer to him. If it were the Bloody Baron or Nearly Headless Nick that would be awesome.. If it were Peeves, then.... "I sort of hope its not Peeves. I've heard of people having rather unfortunate run ins with him."
Kace grinned and nodded.
"Well Hogwarts is always much better. This is like my second home." It was true. He always dreaded leaving it. But he would always visit his parents during the holidays. So they weren't missing him too much. Ah so the professors were nice here. He chuckled at that statement.
"Well some professors here you don't wanna cross like....Bellaire. Have you met her yet?" he asked curiously. He chuckled when he was giving him lessons on the Australian language. Ah so they shortened words. Made a mental note.
"Can I learn some greetings?" he asked curiously.
Kace was glad Simon was on the same page.
"Yeah ghosts down here are exciting. I hope it isn't the bloody baron because he kind of scares me. Nearly Headless Nick is my favorite. He is really nice. I hope it is not peeves...then we are in trouble..." He said looking around his shoulder making sure it's not him.
