Originally Posted by Tazenhani Amur's nose crinkled at Colt's family description. "There's no fun in normallcy." Or at least, there was much less. It seemed a blessing in disguise that her father never expected let alone wanted a normal life or family. The sentiment gave her permission to be a bit of an odd-ball if she so chose. Not that her grandparents were always fond of such a matter..... "Dunno. My mom didn't stick around for very long. The magic kind of threw her for a loop and .... she didn't take it too well. My dad is off pursuing his latest and greatest..." Interest? "....Story." Was that easy going? She wasn't sure. She hadn't really thought about it before. A grin took over. "My grandparents are cool though."
Cool as in the way that only seventy-plus year old people could be. Strict as a stick, but with some bending capability.
Her head titled to the side, and a shrug followed. "My dad's work was always more interesting I guess. My mom....dunno. Never really elaborated." And Amur couldn't say that she cared much. Her mom did whatever she did, and survived however she did. Wasn't really something the fourteen year old could concern herself with.
Though, her father was a different story. Her mouth twisted up in a half-smile, half-frown. "Unlikely you would see or read anything from my father. He's....a bit of an acquired taste and not a big name or anything."
The starry wall was, in her opinion, more interesting and distracting than her parents careers. "Sooooo....she used muggle means to do it then? Or did she pain it and then do some magic-work over it to get the star effect?" Because she knew exactly what and who she could use such valuable information on. Come come Colt, do share.
Her head tilted the other way. Talents or hobbies? ".......I can make dragons from pretty much anything." That was both a talent and a hobby, right? It was, one of the only spells she felt she had mastered thus far. "And I've been told I'm a pebble in a shoe." Unfortunately it didn't sound quite as nice as a ripple in a pond.
Colt snorted and agreed with Amur whole heartedly. "Yeah I agree but my dad likes the normal life. I sometimes let magic slip when I was little because ya know you can't control it. He wouldn't even acknowledge it. He would be like asking my mom to stop it. He wanted me to follow the family business and go into the military.." Not that Colt could see himself as a soldier. "I mean come on can you see me as a soldier?" She didn't have to answer if she didn't want to. I mean he was taught to train with weapons at a young age. He felt like he was a hunter in some sorts. Even his dad told him to be afraid of the dark because he knows what goes bump in the night. Not like Amur needs to know this and think he was a weirdo. He nodded and thought living with your grandparents was kind of cool. "Is your grandparents the kind of parents that let you get away with doing with you want?" I mean his grandparents kind of let him do it.
The slytherin's curiosity was peaking and he asked, "Come on you can't leave me hanging like that. Tell me the what the story entails.." He got the hint Amur didn't want to talk about her mother and he respected it. So he moved onto the next topic. An acquired taste? "Do you mean he writes for that magazine like the Quibbler that doesn't get read too often?" Ah now onto his mother, he shrugged. He actually didn't know. "I mean in all honesty she could use both magic and muggle means. I think she uses muggle means because it is like therapy to her. She uses the magic to give the paint the effects. It is freaken awesome." The star twinkling on his ceiling reminds him of the camping trips he would take with his huge family.
Talking about Amur's hobbies, she could make dragons? He shook his head and thought he didn't hear right. "Wait a minute you can make dragons out of anything?" He raised his eyebrows impressed. "Now come on you gotta show me.." He needed proof. He heard her expression and didn't get it. "Your a pebble in a shoe??" he gave her a quizzical look.
