Though in all honesty, were it not she probably still wouldn't have moved. Too much work now that everything was laid out in front of her. "I was hoping to run into some familiar faces. Catch up and say good byes before it's off to school." Which she'd already found one, so she was feeling pretty optimistic regarding the possibility of more.
K hardly noticed he was doing things the muggle way, no magic involved, as she was as well. Her decisions in life just made it make more sense to not rely heavily on the ability of magical assistance, when odds were she wouldn't have many opportunities to use it. Especially in the next year.
The adult prancing made her giggle, "I'm leaving soon for the States to do just that. Have some time to settle in my new surroundings before it's all classes all the time." She was nervous for the move too. Not because of anything to do with New York itself, given her sister, her best friend and her boyfriend were already there for various reasons, but even with having come to a decision there was still a lot of anxiety with leaving her Mom. Maybe that was really the truth of why she didn't leave as early as she thought she'd leave. A point she did not make to her sister lest they get in another round of the blame game. "Are you excited for your final year at Hogwarts?" Ilya was also used to forcing his company on some people (those he knew would do him no harm). In fact, he would usually object on doing anything or being with anyone the first few minutes, but then he'd go along with it or them. This was one of his mother's and grandmother's biggest frustration with him -- he always said 'no' first then he was forced to do something, then he would like that something. It was exhausting to everyone involved.
Ah, Kimberly was here on a goodbye mission then. "The states? Wow, that's far. And kind of... I don't know, I have never been a fan of the states." Or anywhere different culturally, but Ilya wasn't about to divulge his slightly prejudiced outlook on the world. "Have you decided what you are going to study? Oh Merlin, is it a Muggles University?" His hand found his chest in a dramatic small gasp. Kimberly wouldn't, would she?
His 'artistic' work on his t-shirt was on hold for now, he found his friend and her news to be quite captivating at the moment. Think of the scandal gossip her family would have if she actually went on to study something Muggle-ish in a Muggles university. Whew! He'd definitely enjoy being in that circle of gossip. That was his guilty pleasure. |
