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.


Saying no when you wanted to say yes was certainly something she could understand. Kimmie had spent the majority of her time at Ilvermony intentionally being as difficult as possible to her parents. It was easy to be the troublemaker, and all the other family roles had been taken. She'd only started to shape up to get her way with going to Hogwarts - and even now there were times where she still wanted to revert to her difficult nature.

The States were far, but had it not been for all of her friends having been in the UK she never would have wanted to leave Alaska and her studio and students there. "I was born in the States. We've actually only lived here for... 2 years now." Ironic how they'd moved the whole family for the health of one. And now... he wasn't even here for it to matter anyways. His joke received an eyebrow raise, though her smile did not drop from her face. She would entirely. "Yes, actually. In New York. I'll be double majoring in social work and dance." One so she could try to make a change in the world, no matter how small. The other because it had always been her passion, and while the load she was putting on herself was probably going to be a lot... she was working under the assumption it would be worth it. "I'm the second one in my family to decide on a career outside of the wizarding world."

Ironic the only other one thus far had been the pure blood.

Her hand finally started working on a design on the first small shirt before her. Zephyr needed a Westchester Werewolves shirt to rep his mum at all the games Kimmie was now determined to take him too.
