[Loki bounces in and sit across from him]

Hello! How are you this morning?

[rule_britannia]

I haven't been awake for long enough to work that out. Ask me again in an hour.

[thesmallesttrickster]

[Loki on the other hand is WIDE AWAKE AND READY TO GO.

He giggles.]

Noted.

What are you eating?

[rule_britannia]

[Arthur lifts one of the sweets up. It looks one of these]

They're called Flying Saucers. Muggle sweets. Want one?

[thesmallesttrickster]

Yes, please.

[Loki pops one in his mouth. He is rather surprised by the sherbet on the inside, but pleased nonetheless. He smiles.]

Those are most interesting!

[rule_britannia]

[The blond boy grins slightly]

Muggle sweets can seem kind of boring I suppose but I rather like them.

[thesmallesttrickster]

They are tasty, and that is most important when it comes to sweets.

[rule_britannia]

Aha, I can see you and I are on the same train of thought.

[He pops another of the sweets into his mouth and chews it thoughtfully]

I haven't heard your brother stampeding up and down the train. Is he here?

[thesmallesttrickster]

He is here. I believe he was speaking with some friends of his when I excused myself.

[rule_britannia]

Lucky escape, I'd say. Are you looking forward to your sorting?

[thesmallesttrickster]

I am! Though I must say, I am more excited for classes to start.

[rule_britannia]

You must have heard much of them from Thor.

[thesmallesttrickster]

I have! I am most excited for the magical languages class that is starting this year.

[rule_britannia]

I'm rather looking forward to that, myself.

[thesmallesttrickster]

And Thor says Professor Strider is a very cool professor!

[rule_britannia]

Yeah.. he seems like a decent guy.

[thesmallesttrickster]

Though he does use rather colorful language for a professor though.
