That seems to me to be best option to take." and since his Uncle Aegis was an All-Star Quodpot Player Mark had made sure to know what he could talk to his Uncle about anytime he came back to Visit London, or if he got to take a Trip to America to visit him.

He selected 2 more magazines off the rack, not caring which other 2 they would be and would try some secret American code words when he would check out at the counter.

He shook his head no when she asked if he was going to Hogwarts. "Not yet. I start in 1 more year, but my Older sister is going to start in September." Which he was very jealous of that. "I'm Mark, Mark Gunter. What's your name?"
The look did not go unnoticed. Okay, so kid's not as gullible as he looks. She was getting bored of the joke anyway. She shrugged, and turned her attention to the magazines. "Yeah, it could have been one of those. I know nothing about Quodpot."

"Oh. Well, just one more year right?" She picked up a magazine, flipped through it without a hint of interest, and replaced it. "I'm A...."

"What about this one, Quinnlin?" In the nearly empty store, her Mother's voice carried through the store. There was a pause, as her Mother hadn't yet looked up to notice she wasn't there.

Quinn ducked below the line of shelves so she'd be out of her Mother's line of sight and held a finger to her lips. Just in time too. Her mother had finally realized she wasn't there.

"Quinnlin?"

"Quinn," she whispered to Mark. "And that," she nodded in the direction of her Mother, "reprehensible beast is my mother."
