Which basically meant... everyone.

The rest of her response was actually very useful, though, in that she'd actually gone into some proper detail. Daxton tapped his pen against the notebook as he read it once, twice, three times altogether, which was significant as he didn't need to read things more than once, and only did so if he found something intriguing or enjoyable. He didn't think the hard school subjects would be much of a problem, because he'd always found academia to be easy, and, by extension, boring. But obviously Daxton wanted to learn the magic spells; he wanted to know everything.

But ghosts? That was unexpected information, and the boy's mind was suddenly overloaded with possibilities. Maybe he could catch one and ask it questions. Imagine the kind of things they knew; a ghost would be a valuable asset.

It was a few moments before Daxton realised he'd started to disappear off into his own thoughts to process all this information, and he quickly forced himself to stop. There were more things he wanted to know. Suddenly out of his almost-reverie, Daxton put pen to pater wrote his responses, then turned the notebook back to Genny, watching her almost eagerly. She was full of more information than even she realised, it seemed.

'I'm definitely magical.

What's Quidditch?

I have always thought that ghosts are not real. Ghosts always seemed illogical to me. Have you ever met a ghost?

We will eventually be at Hogwarts at the same time.'

That last part was more a statement than a question that required an answer. Daxton didn't often reiterate something that had already been established, but Genny Tate had done so a couple of times now, and so Daxton had began to unintentionally mirror this in his own stilted way.
