SPOILER!!: Hady Quote:

Regarding his less than social mood, he hadn't realised it had been so obvious to others, though he guessed it did make sense. So when Hady responded with an 'I know', he didn't think much more about it.
Her news was super exciting though, and Zeke couldn't help but GRIN. London was all sorts of wonderful. "Well good luck, I hope he gets it, and that you like it," he wished he was moving back to London, though at least he was sure he could talk Emily and Gavin into spending more time there in the following summer, he'd be able to find some sort of excuse for it, even if he had to pretend to go to a bogus extension learning course or something.
At her admission of making new friends, Zeke leant backward on the bar, his legs extended out in front of him so as to keep some balance and stop from toppling right over. Interesting. Making new friends was cool, though he would never call Dante a NEW friend. "Dante's awesome," he announced his approval, "what animals did you pick?" He still hadn't done his task yet, but he would... he had it ready to go.
He sat up straight again, a smirk slowly lifting the corners of his lips. "I sure can," he replied, though there was a degree of individualism as far as technique went. "How's your upper body strength?" His wasn't too bad now that he'd had plenty of practice at it, still had his moments though.
The second she mentioned London and she say the grin she got from him she couldn't help but smile. "You like London, huh?" She knew he did of course and that he'd most likely wanted to return she so continued with another question or well maybe it was more a suggestion really. "If my dad does get the house and we move, would you maybe wanna visit this summer for a bit? You know if your mums cool with it and all." If he even wanted to that was. He could show her around and all that good stuff.
Hady slid over on the bar just a tad so she could kinda turn a little more towards him when she spoke. "Yeah he seems pretty cool, I honestly don't know him all that well though." It was true. The two of them hadn't exactly spoken much over the years. "A fox and he chose a snake...it uh made for a very interesting interaction." Understatement of the year right there.
Upper body strength? Really? She laughed softly smirking back at him. "I'd say it's decent since I've gotten back into dancing. I'm sure I can keep up." Challenge? Did he like London? Heck yes he liked London! It had been more of a home to him than Birmingham had ever been, though he couldn't complain too much about Prague, it was neat in its own ways, he just missed the familiarity of England and the fact that the English language was far more accessible to him than Czech or French. "I'm something of a fan," he confirmed despite her knowing full well how he felt about the city. "I keep hoping we might move back, but it seems unlikely." There was always graduation though... or even when he turned of age - not that it'd be worthwhile, he'd still be here for school most of the year anyway.
The invitation though, now that was something he couldn't say no to. "I'm totally up for it, that is, if your dad's cool with it." Emily could be persuaded, that wouldn't be a problem. So long as she had a stomach full of sweet pastries then promises of ALL the O.W.L's would suffice to get him what he wanted.
...
And now... that seemed strange. Hady didn't really know Dante? Really? "He's your House mate, how do you not know him?" like, know him WELL. It wasn't as if he'd recently transferred or anything. Huh. Odd. Maybe it was a Slytherin thing? The potions task was weighing on him a bit, he still needed to do it, and he couldn't decide which animal to try on for size. A fox and snake DID sound like an interesting combination, though. "Interesting is good, right?" he asked, curious.
Swinging his legs off now, Zeke managed to keep a firm enough hold on the bars, adjusting his grip and trying not to let go as he considered Hady's response. "Sure, then copy me if you want, or you could use your legs to help, whatever is comfortable for you." He had longer arms, that was also something to consider.
Alternating his swinging from too and fro, to side to side, Zeke started off by taking long sweeping movements across the first bar, left hand, right hand, left hand, right hand... very much like a monkey. Pausing above a lower bar, he hung there, looking back to see how Hady was progressing.
