Just out of curiosity or anything? I mean, sometimes I'd get curious whats happening in Anaheim-- the neighborhood and stuff, since its been a while since I've been back there"

He looked at Ari's instrument in her hands, and found it curious that she would select such a large string instrument. "Why the cello?" he asked her "I mean other than the fact that you cant drag a piano around?" he chuckled.

He turned to Daisy replying "Me? well... i kinda like rock music, so yeah practically anything that has a beat to it. The more drums and guitar riffs the better." he laughed. "Of course I know not a lot of people likes it-- calls it noise." he huffed. Eh, everybody's a critic.

He shifted his attention back to Ari when Daisy asked her her last school "Yeah where did you go to school before Hogwarts? " then he added "And what about you Daisy? How long have you been here at Hogwarts?"

She smiled when he asked about her cello. Not many people did that. "Well, my parents had wanted my sister Alice to play it, but she never really got it. And seeing as I wasn't allowed to do things as she did, I picked it up whenever I could and tought myself to play." She ran a hand down the polished wood. "I like the way it feels, I guess, as opposed to a viola or violin or guitar. I like the sound it makes. It's deep and powerful, yet light." She reached up and touched the small scar on her neck where a string had broken and it struck her. She turned so they could see it. "And it's the only instrument to fight me back," she laughed.



Ari just smiled, "Not a problem. I have friends with wierder and more annoying idiosyncrasies than short-term memory loss." It was true. But she didn't mind.

She felt the corners of her mouth droop slightly as they both asked about where she'd been. "Before I was here, I was forced to go to a school for the disabled," Ari had to force the word, "where I spent actually five years there, but I decided, at fifteen, I wouldn't accept 'no' for an answer anymore, so I came here, even though I was placed in the fourth year." She compulsively touched her glasses, making sure they stayed close to her eyes, "I was never suppossed to come here, according to my parents, but they don't seem to understand that being blind is nothing more than a label. I certainly don't think I'm dis-abled. I see more than most people," she nodded.
