Dhruv held up a deck of Exploding Snap cards. “I played many a game with my dormmmates. There was some fierce competition.” In his opinion. They missed that group that comprised of Grayson, Zachael, Ezekiel and the others. But enough about all of that! “Are you meeting anyone here? If you wouldn’t be too occupied, would you fancy a game of something? Anything you choose!”
Phoenix still found it weird that most of the professors addressed students by mister or miss whatever their last name was. It always felt so formal and impersonal to him, like stuffy colleagues at a business meeting. But he also thought it would be rude and pointless to ever say as much so he simply accepted it. Maybe it would be a good topic for him to bring up for the next Debate Club meeting.
He nodded slightly as the professor mentioned his own student days. "Is it all the same when you were here or have some things changed?" He imagined some things must have changed as it had probably been a while since he was a student, but maybe not. Phoenix didn't have any real reason to think that they just changed things around every few years or so. There wasn't all that much different since he had started himself a couple years ago, besides a new professor or two every year so far.
Phoenix glanced up at the pack of cards the professor held in his hands. "Oh, no, I was just coming in for some practice. I wasn't really meeting anyone." And he was willing to play with whomever was in here. Sometimes he found a willing partner. "Sure, we could play something. I was going to practice gobstones, but we could play exploding snap, if you'd rather." Phoenix was pretty decent with both of those and it could be interesting to see just how good of a competitor the professor was. Or maybe he could even teach Phoenix a thing or do.
