I like Hogwarts alright, but it is distracting with so many people to pay attention to. I like it better when I can talk to people in small groups. It is a lot easier to read their lips."

Sylvan paused and licked his lips nervously before continuing.

"I guess I should probably tell you that I am deaf. I didn't mean to be rude earlier, but I didn't hear you talk to me. My house-elf Babsey usually is with me to help interpret, but my mom is having a baby, so needed Babsey at home. Don't tell anyone right now, okay? I'd like to seem as normal as possible before people start staring at me weirdly."

When he had finished writing his note, Sylvan folded it over and passed it back to Nate.

After he had replied to Nate's note, Sylvan turned back to his dinner while he waited for a response. All of a sudden, a ghost slid into view above the table. Sylvan was speechless. He had never seen a ghost before. His mouth dropped open in shock, and he wordlessly turned to Nate and pounded him hard on the arm to get his attention. He pointed up at the ghost in amazement.

Nathaniel had seen Nick pop up. He liked Nick but hoped that Nick never drifted through him. He read the boys note with a smile. I like books. A lot. I read as often as I can. Are you pure-blood? I'm half and half.. and I'm related to Harry Potter.. you know who he is right?. Just as Nate finished that he felt the boy pounding on his arm.He patted the boys shoulder and wrote "That's Nearly Headless Nick. He's the ghost of Gryffindor. There are others. They won't harm you. And of course I won't tell anyone.
He passed the parchment back to the boy and waved to Nearly Headless Nick.

By this time Nathaniels hat was off due to eating at the table and his normally black shaggy hair was now shorter and blonde. He took a bite of pumpkin pie and remembered one of the reasons he missed Hogwarts
