He was TOTALLY tan. "Oh yeah! I remember you telling me that," he added with a nod when she mentioned her family from San Francisco. Kane hadn't ever traveled up there, but he had wanted to at some point. It was like a whole different world up there - it was colder, there were more trees, and grizzly bears! "It'll be nice there this time of year. Not too cold," he added. That was the only downside of northern California. Southern California was warm almost all year. ALMOST. They definitely had their off days.
He blinked. That was like...a zoo. A literal ZOO. "Are you trying to be the next Newt Scamander?" he joked with a chuckle. Girls usually liked fluffy animals, didn't they? It sounded...messy. And expensive, because animals ate a LOT of food. "Pretty much anything. Not insects though," he added as an afterthought, turning back to the tarantula display and wrinkling his nose. Yuck.
He noticed that the girl Isa had been talking to was standing quietly to the side. Kane hadn't meant to interrupt, so he smiled nicely at her. "I'm Kane, by the way. I'm a Hufflepuff with Isa," he told her. "Are you going to Hogwarts too?" he asked. She seemed to be a year or two younger than him...
Even as she had continued looking t the accessories and everything else on display, Stasya had been listening to the discussion going on between Isa and Kane. It might’ve been eavesdropping, but she figured that they were talking loud enough that they shouldn’t’ve minded being heard. Plus, maybe she’d hear things about school, even if so far they were just talking about summer stuff. Summer stuff she knew nothing about, having pretty much only been familiar with Tinworth before now, and occasional trips to London when mama had needed anything. She didn’t even know where California was.
She did know about Newt Scamander though, and her attention had gone to the two older kids more when Kane had brought his name up. Obviously she knew about him. She knew Derf after all, and she knew he idolised him. “Tarantulas aren’t insects,” she pointed out, innocently interrupting.
Besides, moments later Kane had turned to her anyway. “I’m Stasya. I know lots of Hufflepuffs,” she replied, giving him a nod. She knew three, anyway. Counting Isa. Four now. That counted as lots. “Mhm, but I don’t know what I’m gonna be yet.” She kind of hoped she’d be a Hufflepuff too, with Derf, Henry and now these two. But she didn’t know how it was decided, either. Maybe whoever decided wouldn’t care that she knew lots of people who were Hufflepuffs.
