He'd have to include this in an owl to his mother actually, she'd remind him to go and make sure he got there on time!
"Just my little sister, Fliss" Jasper said with a smile as he thought about Felicity, though he was glad it was just her. He might love her and want to protect her, but sometimes she really bugged him. "She's also a witch," something they'd found out when Jasper got his Hogwarts letter. At that point she'd thrown a fit that she wanted to go to magic school and in her tantrum had used magic for the first time.
Oh. That made sense. He hadn't thought about that aspect of it all too much. It left him unsure of how to respond to that. "Well... you'll see them during holidays and you can write them lots of letters to let them know everything is going well?" there that was a solution to them missing her. Wasn't it? He kept a soft smile on his face to try to tell her he meant well.
Success! She was smiling again! And yes, yes he did have a point! "A muggle author wrote it, Dr Seuss," he said with a smile. Although, he was wondering if she'd think that made it less special or relevant to herself. Perhaps she would...
Should he tell her it's significance to him?
Why not? "Dr Seuss is my mum's favourite author. She often told us quotes and sayings if we weren't sure. When I was upset about being a wizard, mum always told me what I just told you." He looked straight at her as he explained himself slowly, though one he was done he looked away from the girl in front of him, kind of unsure what to do having told her that. Something quite personal actually.
"Well... we're still talking to each other so it would be bad if we didn't like talking to each other," he returned, also smiling once again.
Azura nodded as Jasper repeated the plan back to her.
"Mmmhmmm and after those two places we will go anywhere else you would like.. we might have to do some actual school shopping you know." She said with a warm smile up at him. This sounded like so much fun! And she was totally going to remind him about it!
Awww, just one little sister..
"Fliss?" That was a cool name, though she wondered if it was short for anything?
"Oh that's so great, so she'll be at Hogwarts soon I take it?" She asked him with a warm smile as she looked up at him. She was always so curious about bigger families! Part of her wished she had a sibling so her parents wouldn't be so lonely!
Azura nodded as he spoke.. the gentle smile on his face calming her to her.
"Yeah, I am going to do that and we've already planned out our Christmas, since my birthday is close to it, we always have a big celebration. But, it's just going to be them two, what are they going to do without me?" Her poor parents.. left with nothing to do!
Ahh, it was from someone saying it! Not from himself, though..that was still cool!
"I've heard of Dr.Suess." She said softly as she thought about what he said.. her heart flutters had lessened though.. It was a feeling she couldn't quite describe.. but whatever it was.. it was slowly leaving.
Though, at his next words the heart fluttery feeling came back in full force as he told her what it meant to him! It was personal, and for him to share that with her.. it felt like a great honor! Suddenly the phrase seemed much more important than it had been before!
"Your mom sounds like a great person.. and I'm sorry you were upset at being a wizard, but I know I would be very unhappy if you weren't here." She told him truthfully, before she bowed her head a little and looked at the ground for just a moment, before looking back up at Jasper with a smile.
"Thank you for telling me that." She said softly.
"You have a point there!" She said with a soft laugh..
"But we do like each other, so we like hanging out!" Though her purple eyes went wide as she spoke..
"I mean.. we do like talking to each other!"
Blazing Basilisks! What a time to forget a word!
