Derf was not exactly well-versed in American, but he knew SOME things, like the necessity for sunglasses and loud music, and anything he knew about the CIA had come from the crime and mystery shows that his dad was so keen on. "....the....Central Intelligence Agency? That sounds...dodgy..." he said warily, though there was a clear glimmer of curiosity sparked in his big baby blues.

"Oh ace!" And he because he was incapable of doing two math things at once - presently counting the boxes of chocolate frogs to make sure he had them all again - he decided to ask outright. "You must know some stuff about Hogwarts then, yeah? Came across the pond for the IMPS?" Which meant she had walked the same halls that Valerie Gray had and WITH her.

He wondered what that not-a-Veela-Veela was up to these days. She was never returning his letters.

Ooops. Telling people about the whole CIA thing was probably not a smart move. Then again, it had been soooo long ago. Ancient history, really. "Oh, it wasn't really as bad as it sounds..... they had worked as independent contractors and messed up on a job." She left off the fact that they had been secret agents. That seemed like a real no go topic. Yep, she was really going to have to watch that.

"Er..a small bit. Basically, I only know what I heard from my classmates when they got back." Information that had left her intrigued, for sure. Though, not everything had been all that complimentary... "Is it true that there's a giant squid that lives in a lake?" she asked, handing over the boxes that she'd picked up. That had had everyone talking the most, as far as Pukwudgie house had been concerned.

"I have to ask, if you prefer Bertie Bott's and those Fizzy things," she couldn't remember the proper name, they didn't have them in America, "why do you have so many chocolate frogs?" She usually liked to stock up on the snacks she actually liked herself.
