"It's been confirmed that the granddaughter of Sir Patrick Stewart will be a guest speaker," he smirked. Charming woman. He had had the pleasure of speaking with her on a few occasions at various conventions. Not to mentioned a few merchandise booths selling some Original Series memorabilia still in its original packaging. He had been saving his muggle money for quite some time in preparation of this.
"Nonsense, strange would be asking me if I used tweezers to pluck my nose hairs," he chuckled, taking another long sip from his tea and giving his cup a casual swirl. "I do not, for the record." In case that had actually become something the young man was curious to the answer to, although he couldn't imagine why. "I do. Exclusively really. Tried going as Data once, but the paint was a little too much for me."
Slightly sensitive skin when it came to such things.
THE GRANDDAUGHTER OF SIR PATRICK STEWART!?!? Now, he HAD to go. Simon's jaw dropped. If he'd be a cartoon, it would have nicely been resting on the very clean floors of Airey's office. "
WHAT?!" he exclaimed with blue eyes widening. "
That's amazing. Sweet Merlin! I'll have to go now." He didn't know who he'd be but he'd decide once he would get there. "
Do you know her personally?" he asked all of a sudden becoming very quiet and leaning in as if they were speaking about taking over the world and didn't want anyone to hear- not even Flamsteed's pet rock.
Uhhhhhhhhhh..
Smile and wave, Simon. Smile and wave. Or nod. Yeah. Smile and nod at the Professor who just told you something about Flamsteed using tweezers to pluck his nose. Okay, a bit too much information, dear fellow Trekkie. PLAY IT COOL. Play it coool. He just nodded and smiled at the Professor. "
Of course, I was wondering that actually," teased Simon with a chuckle. Oh wait. What if he didn't take that as him teasing Airey? Uh.. Uhh... "
Well.. Not exactly but anyway.." he added rather awkwardly.
His eyebrows raised when he heard that Flamsteed had tried going as Data. "
Seriously? That must have been so tough. I'd imagine that all of that paint would have made it quite hard to interact," he said, imaging how quickly the paint would start to crack. "
Did you go with the beard or without the beard?" He took another sip as he remembered the episode when Data tried to get people's opinions about his beard.
