It was something to look into for a later point but right now the stories he wrote didn't need either of those or different races of humans so he could put it off for a bit. "I like writing every day stories and finding new ways to make them...not so every day." It was why he liked his quill so much. Even the most mundane actions could be made thrilling.

Blaise was all for giving compliments to it too so when the boy asked about it, he was ready to give it high recommendations. "Definitely! It's not so great if you wanna keep things strictly accurate but make believe doesn't always have to be accurate." When the boy wrote, he liked to think it was a serious matter but even he wouldn't deny that embellishments often made the story.

And this kid was on a roll today, wasn't he? All these deep brain diving statements that made Blaise think the kid would fit well in that Ravenclaw house his mum wanted him sorted in. If THAT was how he had to sound most all the time then he would definitely have to pass on that one. "I guess you've got a point and I mean if I walked so far I wouldn't wanna even think for a second that there's a chance the fountain just DOESN'T work." Because he'd probably lose it right there on the spot.

"So how come you're sitting by yourself reading a book in the middle of Diagon Alley?"

Teddy was unintentionally picking at a scab on his elbow as the boy was saying whoa... but... well, his stories weren't very accurate. "I read about the general principals of a running government. You just need a head of government, the head needs an assistant, and then there's other people underneath, and there can be lots of levels underneath that. They all do different things to help the universe function, but I don't usually go into much detail. I like putting my detail into my characters."

But Teddy also really liked everyday stories with twists in them. "That sounds fun," he chimed in. "So you wouldn't want to use it at school to take notes?" Teddy guessed. Okay... if he could ever get one of those quills, he wouldn't use it for school work. And he was totally right - "That's the best bit about writing stories! All rules are off." He was feeling much more comfortable with conversing with the boy now. He was pretty nice, and he was friendly.

Teddy laughed. He laughed! "How silly would you feel bathing in a mundane fountain and being the same person you were at the start of the journey? And disappointed. Very disappointed."

"Well..." Teddy began, not wanting to make his sister seem irresponsible. "I was here with my sisters. Ava's off somewhere, and Zhenya, my older sister, went off with a friend for a bit, but she said she wouldn't be too long, so I told her I'd wait for her here, on the park bench." He looked up and down the street but there was no sign of her. He wasn't worried anymore. 1. He knew she would be back. 2. He had company now. "How about you?" he asked the boy.
