But...before he knew it, someone was running into him! A small person, so he assumed a younger person, and Paul chuckled a whooooooole lot at the young fellow..bowing left and right. Merlin! Must be a culture thing, Paul decided. He wasn't sure if he was supposed to bow back or not...so he chose to just nod his head at him.
"It...was equally my fault, I assure you. I was not paying attention either...daydreaming of Honeydukes and candy..." he said with a sigh, relaxing his shoulders. "So please...it's really okay." And he patted the boy on the shoulder.
Merlin, England is very different, isn’t it? Jace stopped bowing, and slowly looked up at the tall man before him. He blinked several times as he processed what he said, while holding up his newly acquired wand pointing upwards.
This man is very kind, Jace could tell.
“You can understand, Japanese, mister?” he asked. It was rare to bump into someone who can speak his native language.
Jace tilted his head, and wondered why a grown up man would daydream about Honeydukes? Was he like Dumbledore who loved muggle lemon drops? Not that lemon drops are nasty, but...really? If this man would ask, he’d be daydreaming of Japan...or his Kendo practices...or interesting books...even sleep!
