[Greg is so ready for this; in fact, the moment he sees Maxim thundering down the corridor he immediately holds up both hands.]

Woah there, slow down!! I'm glad to see you too Maxim, but for once I'd like to get to Hogwarts without a bruise or a bump anywhere, thanks.

[Despite the slightly scolding nature of the message, Greg can't help but smile.]

[Do you have any idea how hard it is to stop when you're charging directly at someone, Greg? Do you? Because it's really hard. Maxim ends up tripping over his own feet in his effort to stop before colliding with the other boy, and faceplants at Greg's. It's not dignified in the least]

....Hyu velcome.

[Amused, Greg offers him a hand up.]

Have you seen all the old faces yet?

[For a moment, Maxim considers pulling him down in retaliation, but he decides to be nice instead, and simply gets to his feet. Be grateful.]

[di_intraining]

[Yeah, that would've gone well if Maxim had actually done it.]

A transfer student? What's his name and where's he from?

[moveslikejaeger]

Huh. Don't suppose he's picked up a little of the local lingos in all the places he's been. Marshall Lee. I'll be sure to look out for him.
