Deciding to ignore the blush instead of pointing it out (which he probably wouldn't have wanted), Esme brushed off the thanks. "Just telling things how they are." He was a very nice boy; all the people who thought that Slytherins were mean needed to meet him, Hady, Mason, and many others because they were all good people. Oliver's next comment made her laugh, however. "Well, I imagine that's how a lot of us are. Can't imagine most people wanting a Dragon or Nundu for a pet." Even though she wasn't big on history she had heard the story of Eldon Elsrickle. Yeah, she was never going to do anything as dumb as that. A Unicorn was more than enough for her; in fact she had asked her parents for one repeatedly and they always told her no. "Law enforcement? My dad is in that field; he's an Auror!" But that line of work wasn't for everyone. It certainly wasn't for HER. "Well, we can look in the library together. I mean if you want to." Maybe he would rather do that alone or with someone else like his sister. It would be a nice for them both to have some idea of what they wanted to do with their lives after Hogwarts. It was a big world out there filled with loads of possibilities and she didn't want to miss out on anything just because she was unsure of what she wanted. "I don't think I want to be a teacher either, I would much rather do something that involves working with people. Or Unicorns!" Maybe she could have a Unicorn farm! That would be AMAZING. "You're not the only one who is bad with studying because I am too. Especially with things like History of Magic." She was not a big fan of history in all honestly. It bored her.

Hehe. It was funny to see his reaction to her charm suggestion. "Well, sometimes I miss out on things too. But I'm glad to give a tip!" Now life would be a little easier for Oliver as far as that was concerned. Maybe he would pack away everything that he would possibly need the same way that she did. Esme was trying to never be caught unprepared but she had no idea how well that would go. She would see in time. "I'm glad that I am not the only one who gets homesick. I can't wait to see the rest of my family again." She always got like this during term though by the end of summer she was itching to go back to Hogwarts. "Do you not get along great with your sister at school?" Twins didn't always get along and she knew that; luckily for her she didn't have that problem with Juno. They were best friends.

2090 sounded so weird to him. Then again, so had 2089 a year ago. Every so often he liked to think about how things were back in the old days, like in 2000 or whatever. How crazy was it that 2000 was even a real year? LET ALONE 1000. So weird. As weird as it is, he clinked his drink and took a big gulp of it. He figured the more he drank the more likely amazingness would exist in 2090. ....kind of logical.

Oliver was so grateful when Esme didn't bring up his blushing. He had already had so many people point out when he blushed and it always embarrassed him more. He couldn't help it after all. "Good point, though Nundu's look really cool...and softer to pet than a dragon." Y'know, since they had fur rather than scaley skin and whatnot. But she was right, there was no way he'd ever want one as a pet. Going with Tim and Jon to see the dragons every so often was more than enough for him. Dragons were cool when there was no way they could harm you.

The slytherin raised his eyebrows when Esme said her dad was an auror. He wasn't quite sure why that surprised him so much, but it did. He didn't actually know anyone who knew an auror. They were just...random witches and wizards who lived this weirdly cool life enforcing wizard laws and stuff. "Really??? Do you think...maybe I could talk to him about it one day?" Oliver knew maybe that was too much to ask, but how cool would it be to talk to an auror? And then he could actually find out what the job is like because in his head it was all memorizing laws and then getting mad at people when they broke them. Didn't sounds much fun really. Beaming, he nodded at Esme's suggestion. He couldn't help thinking, once again, that she was so nice. "I'd love that actually! And we can help each other out with figuring out what we wanna do!" He was really excited about this. It was gonna be great. Olive couldn't help but laugh next. Unicorns were really cool. "Y'know how they have programs to help people by riding horses? Maybe you could do something like that but with unicorns!" Like therapy!! "I am so bad at History of Magic!" He kind of really really disliked history so much.

"You're so great, Esme!" Seriously. So great. "Me too! Being home will be great. But Tim and I get along pretty well, it's just not the same as at home. We don't hang out as much." Which was a blessing on rare occasions, but he missed her a lot. "Are you and your twin close?"
