He chuckled, though at the time it wasn't funny, it was lucky he had caught the mix up. He wasn't bothered by her answer, he knew not everyone would like plants the way he did. "Well there has to be someone just to admire our work. Can't have everyone just wanted to grow plants." Giving her a grin he picked up his wine and took a sip. "Well I guess I need to figure that out before I reveal all my secrets not won't I?" Was this going well? He felt that it might be, but maybe she just thought he was a plant nerd. Though she was laughing and smiling, that was a good sign, he hoped.
Laughing a bit more he nodded, "You're welcome to have an audience then." He was glad to do something even if it was just watching and clapping. He listened as she spoke about working with muggles, it was interesting and he really was paying attention. "I could imagine how frustrating it could be, but I bet it gives you an advantage in some cases for different roles?" Honest question really.
Lifting his glass he smiled, "Cheers" This was a fun evening if nothing else. "No, I haven't. The only thing to come close to working with one was I came across this poor woman trying to fight off a Spiky bush that someone thought would be fun to plant at their park." Still had no clue who would have done that, but that wasn't really his job to figure out. Star gras?? Was she... supposed to know what that was? .....Well, she didn't, but the name was great! Star grass! She didn't recognise the other plant either but from what he said, that sounded bad. "Sounds bad!" Mandy stated the obvious, eyes not as wide as they'd be was she on stage. But oohhh, look at him copying her! Hahaha! "That's right! Poor blue amongst all them yellow lovers!" Was she talking in codes? Not that she was aware of, nope; it all made sense.
Haaah, this kid was funny. "That's right." Amanda didn't know how old he was, but she was calling him 'kid' in her head because she felt like it. He was a funny kid, she appreciated that. "Did you attend Hogwarts?" She asked casually, not caring about the fact they were probably surrounded by Muggles. She had learned that they'd either ignore the words they didn't know completely or just hazard a wild guess that was always wrong. No matter; silly Muggles were always going to be silly. "If so, what was your house?" "The audience is always appreciated." She grinned and lifted her glass. Then shrugged again at the Muggle topic. "I suppose, but I'm not sure if it's worth the hassle. I mean, having to hide your amazinggg magic powers is tiring and it takes a lot of effort. Especially when you know you can solve things in a heartbeat and they take ageeees to do it." Mandy rolled her eyes and sat back on her chair. "Not sure I'm willing to do it again, to be completely honest." Besides, bad experiences had been baad. But yeah, this was no topic for a date, sooooo.
The brunette tilted her head and frowned slightly at his little story featuring the Muggle fighting a... bush. LOL. She could totally picture it and it sounded HILARIOUS. "Hah! So you saved the day??" Hahaha! "Are you... a pureblood by any chance?" Since he had never really worked with Muggles and such. Oh sweet Merlin, she just hoped he wouldn't be like her mother and sister if he was indeed a pureblood. Urgh.
