Probably, but too late now. "But sometimes we get homework where we get to draw and stuff too, in a bunch of subjects, and that gets graded."

When Paris pulled out the sketchbook, Toby grinned at him. "Cool! So you do, like, proper art then?" 'Cause that was something on a whole other level from Toby's Herbology diagrams. The Hufflepuff was totally impressed by anyone who had the real creativity and patience for proper art.

"'Course you can join me," he nodded, gesturing down at the space beside where he'd been sitting, and returning to his own position on the floor. Maybe later he'd suggest going to check out the Puffapods; they were one of Toby's favourites. "How're you liking Hogwarts so far?"

Paris listened intently to everything that the older boy was saying, replaying it in his mind. They got to DRAW in lessons. That would make classes so much easier for him, not to mention more enjoyable. "'s hard for me to focus too. On anything but drawing and painting stuff." Which was why he didn't really feel all that much like a Ravenclaw, but no one was trying to kick him and he had BEGGED to be here, so no complaining from this kid. "Those classes sound awesome!" The question now was just figuring out which ones those where. "Are all the classes like that?"

Grinning proudly, he nodded and opened his sketchbook to the first page. It was new and only filled with sketches of all things Hogwarts. The first thing being the great hall on opening feast night, though it was more an imitation of how Paris had viewed that night more than how it actually had been, and so the sketch had been more romanticized. "Been drawing before I learned to write. 's my favorite thing. I do all types of art." It was the one thing that came easy to him, and that his parents had supported and allowed in some of his homeschooling.

Crossing his legs, he eagerly took up the spot beside his new friend, turning to a new page in his book and pulling out a pencil to draw with. "'s nice. People are friendly an' all." Which was not what he had been told, but then you couldn't trust everything that Dora told you. Or his actual cousins sometimes. "You're one of those badgers?"
