I’m Ethan.” He said as he gave him a salute too. It was way cooler than shaking hands. Just saying. But…wait. Hold on.
Toby.
Toby? Ethan slightly jerked and got the letter he got from Ella from weeks ago. It says there to find a Hufflepuff kid named…Tobias. And that Kyroh said earlier that this Tobias kid goes by the name of Toby. Oh…Ohhhh. It looks like he finally found him! “I’m assuming that Toby is your nickname. Am I correct…Tobias?” he asked as he looked at the boy from Ella’s note.
Merlin, please say you’re him.
Ethan, cool. As Toby didn't know any other Ethan's, he figured he'd be able to remember this kid's name pretty easily. He beamed and saluted Ethan straight back, and went back to looking over the controls on his Go-Kart, jiggling the steering wheel to check how sensitive the controls were
before starting, otherwise things could get a little hairy. He was completely oblivious to what Ethan was thinking, of course, and looked up again when he heard him speaking again.
"I guess it is, yeah," he nodded, looking thoughtful for a second.
"A lot of people call me Toby, some people call me Tobias." Like Ella in particular. He'd always kinda liked that she stuck with his full name, even if he now introduced himself as the shortened version of his name.
"Tobias Tempus." Heh. It was an odd name.
"Why'd'you ask?" Toby added.
