"I did, my parents were both Muggles." She shot a smile over at him, for phrasing his question so politely. Though she rarely had any trouble with her blood status these days (people she interacted with professionally were either unaware, or more concerned with her being a vampire than a Muggleborn).

"I am sure I will find my own way there some day. Until then I must simply enjoy it vicariously through people who already have the means."

"My dad's a Muggle, he always thought my mum was really amazing when she did magic," he smiles at the memory. His dad was a rough man, sometimes a little frightening in anger, but he treated his mother like she was everything to him.

"I grew up in Brooklyn... uh New York," never sure if people know the difference, "so it'd be nice to get back home and explore what's changed. I like Ireland and all, but the States will always be home, so I hope you get to go see them sometime," he gives her a grin as he fluffs a pillow.

"My parents were always fascinated, but there was only so much that I could show them while I was at home. They came with me to Diagon Alley once, but I think it was a little too much for them."

She smiled fondly at the memory, moving over to the next bed and drawing the sheets off it. "I cannot imagine growing up in such a big place as New York."

He chuckles at the idea of his dad in Diagon Alley. "I think I dad would've had an aneurysm if he went there, I don't think he would quite believe that there's an unseen world. People hiding their magic yeah, but nothing like there really is."

He takes a moment to smooth out the sheets before tucking the blanket into the mattress. "I didn't get to explore it much, so I guess it never felt as big as it was."

"I hardly believed it myself when I first saw it." And she'd explored every inch of the place over the years, even Knockturn Alley, though she'd never recommend the place to a student. Some of them were well-acquainted with it regardless.

"I can say it is worth the exploration, should you ever find yourself inclined towards it." She nodded, giving a satisfied little sigh. "Though perhaps in times when it is less crowded."

[starspangledavenger]

He gives the pillow a fluff then goes on to the next bed. "I'll be sure to do that one day. I've always wanted to, but I don't find myself over that way very often. When would you say it's likely to be less crowded?"

[wavesofjade]

"Hmm..."

With the bed she was working on finished, she leaned against the end and tapped her fingers gently against it, looking up at the ceiling in thought.

"During the summer, perhaps. Before most of the students are shopping for new supplies. It should be far less busy then."
