SPOILER!!: Why do so many people call him KID??
Milo could not help but chuckle at the kid. "It's alright," he reassured him. "I guess I am just use to hearing it at my house all day long it doesn't phase me when someone else has an American accent." He had two little girls that talked NON-STOP all day, every day. "Where are you from? Because it's clearly not from here." Here being England.
... wait. Hold it! HOLD IT right there! "Stark," he repeated. "Weird." It was really weird. Not his last name, but the fact that his girlfriend had the same last name. Was it common? Maybe it was; however, this was the first Stark he met that wasn't related to his girlfriend. "My girlfriend has the same last name." Very weird.
"Steelers have a way better winning streak than the Jets," he pointed out just to make a point. He pulled a swivel chair over from a spare desk and sat in it because it was hurting his neck having to look down at the kid for this long. ".... and why didn't you do that? It's a great idea." Brilliant idea, actually.
Hogwarts cancelled QUIDDITCH? That was even more weird than Archer having the same last name as his girlfriend. "That's cool," he stated. "My eldest daughter enjoys Quidditch, but she doesn't really have anyone to play with." He was getting a little too old for that stuff. "Quod-what?" He blinked. Was that a new, hip thing that the kids did? Or did he just live under a rock?
Archer laughed a little at that. "My dad has the accent as well, but he's almost never home and my little sister is picking up the Britts' accent as well." Which was disappointing to Archer, but since Ro spent so much time with Chloe (who talked A LOT) it was bound to happen. "I was born in Manhattan. We moved here when I was about ten." Jip, Archer was a real Yankee, which was something that shone through a lot in his own accent.
Did this guy just call his surname weird? Sure it wasn't all that common, but it was like Iron Man's surname, which was pretty cool as well.
His girlfriend too? "That is kinda weird. . . is she a Britt?" It would be a lot less weird if she was, since there would probably be Starks in Europe as well.
-__- Did he seriously have to bring that up? Archer was super biased when it came to the Jets, but even he had to admit that that was true. "That's not what matters. The Jets. . . they um. . . " There had never really been anything remarkable about the Jets, and they weren't all that good, but they were still Archer team. And he had to defend that. "They're really motivated." Brilliant. What a good comeback. Good for you. -__-
Ughh, did Milo have to ask him? "I forgot my wand at home." Lie. Lie all the time. Crossing his legs at the ankles to try and hide said wand, he hoped the man hadn't already seen the Cypress poking out from the top of his boot. "I was super rushed this morning and I forgot it at home." Faking a sheepish look, Archer ran his hand through his dark-hair, something that he always did when he lied.
This guy had a daughter? "Is she your girlfriend's kid or. . . ?" Didn't his kid have friends? You could literally walk up to any wizard-kid and ask them to play, they'd probably always say yes. "Wait, how old is she?"
Wait, what???? This guy didn't know what Qoudpot was? An American-Wizard that didn't know what America's most famous Wizarding-sport was? Did this guys life under a rock or something? Staring at the guy, dumbfounded, the only thing that Archer could think to do was laugh. "I seriously cannot believe that you don't know what it is!" Archer gave another chuckle, "Seriously, don't they have it in Texas?" Or wherever Milo was from? |
