[Oh god what. Quick, how do you socialize with someone who's not your dad or brother? Shit, he doesn't know.]

Uh, yeah. I'm going into first. I'm looking for non-required texts, though. I'm going to use my older brother's books, so I want to get supplements if I can.

[Pause. He turns from the books, and offers a smile and his hand.]

I'm Sam Winchester.

_{[It's okay; he's spent the entirety of summer with Roxy. His socialization skills are like nnnnnope.]}

Oh, that's a good idea. In that case, I don't have any recommendations because I don't know much about wizard stuff at all yet.

Nice to meet you!

[Lack of social skills bros?]

Oh. I don't know much, either. Dean doesn't answer all of my questions about the theories of magic.

[Shrug!]

So...Do you have family at Hogwarts, or is your whole family Muggles?

[givesyouaboner]

Oh, yeah. Dave doesn't really answer a lot of my questions either, so I've read through some of his old books.

Dave is going to be a fourth year, and my uncle is a teacher! But the three of us are the only people in our entire family who are magical. Is it just you and your brother?

[camebackhome]

I don't think Dean really knows the answers to mine.

[He grins. Is this what friendship feels like?]

My family is magic! My dad doesn't really like using it, though. He says he prefers being hands on, but I think he's Muggleborn? I don't remember. He doesn't talk about it, much. I dunno if my mom was, though? He doesn't talk about her, either, but I think she was magical too. I'm just not really sure.

[givesyouaboner]

That's cool, I guess. I'm a Muggleborn. Or I'm pretty sure I am. Like there is a 95% chance that I am. I don't know anything about my mother. I'm not even entirely sure what she looks like anymore, but it's never been something I wondered too much about.
