How did he die? He didn't even have the slightest intention to ask.
He was glad that the topic switched. Jake Upstead? He chuckled. Oh, the third year with the pink hair, right? Rayedem didn't know him personally, he only heard about him from people. He now told himself that he'd keep his distance, "Oh. I suppose wizarding mistakes could get nasty." "Well," he began answering Tibi's question, "my parents, they're both muggles. I don't know any relative of mine that's a wizard or witch, I guess my family and I just have to scan through the family tree to find out--or maybe my sister was the first witch, but that's ridiculous, right?" he added, hoping that it was ridiculous. He'd very much like to know if someone in his family was like him. "Dad's friend is a wizard, and his daughter is in first year too. Lucille Beambrook, she's my best friend." he ended, smiling, wondering if Tibi had met her yet. Tibi smiled gratefully. "Mum says he was great. I don't remember him... so," Tibi didn't know how to say this that didn't sound terrible, "I don't miss him, really. Just the thought of him, I guess." He paused. "Like, I wonder how things would be different if he were around."
Tibi considered Rayedem's family. "Well... someone told me that sometimes completely muggle families sometimes have a witch or wizard born into them but no one really knows why. So... I guess your sister could have been the first?" Tibi shrugged. "I don't think it matters much, though." He wanted to make sure that Rayedem knew that Tibi wasn't one of the kids that didn't like muggleborns.
"hmmm.. Lucille? I think I've seen her around, but I don't know that I met her yet. It must be nice to come to school with a friend, already." Tibi tried not to look glum. He hadn't exactly been great at making friends so far.
