"I'll need my pointe shoes then." She nodded solemnly. "Do you want to me to do it now or later?" Agatha asked, ignoring the cold completely. She jumped right in whenever she had a chance to show off her ballet skills. Mmmmhm.
Whaaat? The girl blinked when Simon went on and on about all the different things he did. "Television series? What are those? And who's... Holmes?" What in Merlin's beard was he talking about? Agatha was uttely confused. But he cooked? "What do you cook?" She couldn't cook. She had actually never tried it before. Maybe she should someday.
After fixing her hair, the third year looked at her friend and caught him just staring at her. "What?"
Professor Botros had a crup then. "Oh, okay. I didn't know you could bring crups to Hogwarts." She said, tilting her head a bit. "It's probably because he's a professor." And Simon did have a pet... but it passed away a couple of years ago. "Oh. Right." That must be sad. Agatha had never lost a pet, but it was probably nto very nice. She tried to imagine what she would feel if Lady died. ....She couldn't quite fathom it, though. "You didn't bring any pets to Hogwarts?"
Merlin, did he really want to talk about her raven? Agatha wasn't the biggest fan of the bird. "It's Chess. It used to be my uncle's but he gave it to me. I think he doesn't like it." It was the only reason Agatha could think of, to be fair. "I didn't really want it, but he made me keep it because it was a gift. I wish it would stay with him in his hut though." Frown.
"
Yes, the pointe, silly!" he said as he folded his arms. He was well aware that she was a lady. Simon began to hum an
old muggle song by Lionel Richie.
You're once, twice, three times a lady... Yes you're once, twice, three times a lady he sung in his head and tapped his foot softly. He didn't even realize that he was doing it. "
Do it now! I want to see how you do it. That is if you don't mind," he said with a suave smile.
"
They're..." he began and then found him speechless. He didn't know how to explain it really. It was far too difficult to explain it. Being a muggleborn, Simon had assumed that most people knew how a television worked. "
Uhh.. well its a story thats acted out and then you watch it on the television. Do you know what a television is?" It was an important question after all. His jaw dropped when Agatha asked him
who Holmes was. "
Sweet mother Merlin! Sherlock Holmes is the best fictional detective known to mankind. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle created him. I have some novels about his adventures. I'd highly recommend reading it!" Sherlock Holmes was a classic after all. "
However, I have a Holmes at Hogwarts. I'm Watson and Ethan's Holmes. We solve crimes and save the Herbology Greenhouse." They were basically superheroes.
Merlin. She had seen him looking, hadn't she? Simon blushed furiously. "
Uh nothing! You play with your hair a lot," he observed and then glanced away. Awkward just got more awkward. Hah, yeah... Anyhow...
He nodded and then shrugged his shoulders. "
I don't know how. Exactly. Probably because he's a Professor." And Professors could get away with anything, huh? Maybe he ought to be a Professor one day... But what would he teach? There were so many subjects that he enjoyed. Simon bit his lip. Meh. It was a thought for another day. He shook his head, frowning slightly. "
No, I didn't... Maybe I ought to get someone to keep me company?" he said. Maybe an owl would do?
Chess? He quirked an eyebrow. That was a rather nice name. It was nice of Agatha to keep the raven in their room. "
I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe you can ask to keep Chess in the Owlery or send him or her home? Is she living in the dorm room with you?" Because if so, that wouldn't be good. Ravens could be noisy.
