He gave Helena a polite smile when she said she would have to disagree. "We all have our own opinions, don't we?" he said, nodding. "Professor Bunbury seems a little - err -" The correct word would be EvilCrazy, but he couldn't say that, could he? "Um, a little.. Well, I think she can get us all through our exams pretty fine, anyway. - She knows her subject." So what if she'd blindfolded him, and made him cross a pond using wobbly lily pads as stepping stones? Helena chuckled, guessing what he was thinking after some of the stories that had been going around the common room lately. Yes, well, she began, wanting to move on to a happier subject, To me, Divination is just very.... juvenile. I just don't connect with it, she smiled. Quote:

He hoped he wasn't prying or anything, but he was genuinely curious. "I do like coming from a large family. You're never lonely, that's for sure. My sister, Hannah, goes here, actually. She's a fourth-year. It's good 'cause you've got automatic friends and playmates growing up. Although a little alone time is something you don't really get..." he said with a chuckle. "What's being an only child like? That concept is pretty unimaginable to me!" Both, she grinned, nodding slightly. I'm half-Bulgarian, half-Norwegian. Dark hair, light complexion - that's where it comes from, she smiled slightly and continued easily into the 'family' subject. She was happy to find that it wasn't as touchy as it used to be. It's not all it's cracked up to be. It's mostly boring all the time, though I suppose it would be different if I had had 'involved' parents. Still, I was home-schooled from when I was nine till I came hear two years ago, so contact with other kids my age was pretty nonexistent. She was still smiling, not wanting it to sound like a complaint or to put a damper on the mood.
