Well he was glad the boy was getting along well. He kept his pace trying to go in between his normal speed and making sure the boy was keeping up. "I did. I was in Ravenclaw when I was a student. Most of my family have been Ravenclaws, but it seems that really changed this year." Two nephews in Gryffindor and one to Hufflepuff, it was a shame there were no eagles.
"Oh good, Benton is a very good kid. He is smart too." He had always been the polite one out of the three that were at school right now, he hoped that had not changed.
Carl grinned as Professor Primeaux spoke. "I want to be like you, Professor! I believe that if I work hard towards the goals I set, I can be successful in the future." Being smart was not an ultimate goal of his, but a loyal and hardworking person was what he wished to become.
He continued breathing deeply while jogging, though he felt that he would need a break soon. "What was Hogwarts like when you were a student? Was it the same, or have some things changed?" Carl asked. None of his text books have told him how the school had developed over the years, which was something he was curious about. "Really? Do you have any family members in the school, other than Benton?"
The Hufflepuff nodded at the Professor's description of his nephew. "Yeah ... Do you like having your nephew at school with you?" He would have loved having a family member at school!
