......The newest trend listed in the Teen Witch Weekly? That was a magazine right? He wasn't familiar with Teen magazines in the Wizarding AND muggle world so for all he knew she could be right about this. "Sounds like a trend to me" he laughed. "Just don't hurt your head" He secretly wanted to join but despite not being very tall he was certain that he could not fit under the table and be at ease and instead of the 'zen' she was talking about he would be very uncomfortable. Not to mention that he wouldn't be able to grab new food and...was she SURE this was zen?

"Maybe some other time, although you have to teach me how to slide under there one day" he was dead serious.

Working at a farm sounded way more interesting to him than having people work for you. Although he was satisfied with the staff back at home, he sometimes felt like he wasn't able to do things on his own. Which made Hogwarts so great for him because here he could be independent and he actually got scolded when doing something wrong. Thestrals though, he wasn't sure about them. Weren't they the creatures people could only see when they've seen death? "Can you , you know, see them?" he asked as cautiously yet kind of intrigued. He personally could not see them and he planned to keep it that way for a long time.

He appreciated that Torin was concerned about him but he was in no mood to talk about his feelings right now. "Nah, just a bit tired from the train ride i guess. I think i scared a first year by accident" he hadn't even gotten taller over the summer so that couldn't have been it? In truth, he hadn't grown much ever since his fourth year. It was like he stopped growing and it sucked. He just wanted to be tall T_T "I wished the Headmaster would hurry up though. I never understood why we have to listen to a speech before the food?"
