Felix had assumed the boy would either admit to his lies or tell him that two people could have the same name once he had spurted out his nonsense about the blonde not being Ret. He knew it was obviously very possible for someone else to have the same name, but he didn't like it.

The only Ret that was allowed in his world was his Ret. The girl who had a voice that reminded him of warm summer days, the lulling twang that accompanied both intrigued and terrified the boy. When they were together his heart would be in sync with the beat of her words. She was a mystery that he could only ponder and dream about; the girl he couldn’t stop thinking about. This so called 'Rett' dared to have the same lilting song in his voice, one that mirrored his Ret's own. He dared to be a gift of nature himself, possessing an earthy beauty that was as refreshing as the breeze flowing through the window on a hot August afternoon.

It was really starting to piss Felix off.

He wet his lips, opening his mouth to continue the ever spiraling curse that was his snark before the blonde boy suddenly leaned in and asked why the Swede didn't recognize him. Felix was left awestruck, his cold blue eyes widening as he stared down at the boy. A pink hue would suddenly darken his cheeks. "V-Vad tusan?! W-What the hell?!" The Swedish swear slipped past his lips before he could help himself. Great, now he was flustered, perhaps one of his least favourite feelings. He seemed to lose his sense of logic when his face heated up.

He suddenly slid off of the Hufflepuff's bench and stood, as if to get a better look at the so called form 'Ret' was taking. The boy likely towered over the Southern by at 5'8". He was desperately trying to remember things about metamorphmaguses, such as how much taller they could make themselves or at what age they could take on such an advanced change. It was around 13, right? Unfortunately he did not know much about the talent, as he had never met one before. Well, before Ret apparently.

"You... You never told me about this." He wanted to ask a million questions, such as why she or he introduced themselves if they had already met. Of course it was because he had apparently changed forms. His current form even sort of looked like Ret... It wasn't entirely impossible. Still, he wasn't going to blindly believe him so quickly. He slowly sat back down, his brows furrowed as he leaned in closer to the boy's face, his eyes quickly inspecting it. He raised a hand to quickly brush a stray piece of hair away from Rett's face. "... How do I know this isn't some sort of trick? If you're Ret, what kind of necklace did I give you?"

Chaos was sure to ensure when crowds like this formed with different people. Sana couldn't help but sigh at Aryaan's horrid behavior. He had just kicked dirt on the name of their school. "Watch yourself Shamsi-san!" She scolded, frowning. She turned to Cody. "And when you are speaking to others. It is impolite just to call them by their name unless you know them very well. This is Shimizu-san to you." She said as politely as she could.

However, she wasn't sure if he heard her for he was busy screaming at another. わお wow She said, to Sakura. She allowed herself to blush at Shimizu- san's reassurance.

It seemed Aryaan just couldn't find his manners. She considered opening her mouth to speak, but knowing her best friend, she could only smile knowing what Aryaan had coming for him.

Still, when Shimizu-san spoke up, Sana couldn't help but be a little surprised.

She turned to a new voice. She bowed to him, smiling. "Hello mr. Knight. I am Sana Ohashi. I am so excited to be here." The boy seemed to have more manners then that Cody did, and she decided she like him better. Shimizu-san suggested sitting down, and Sana agreed. "Yes, let's. The food here is delicious."

Henry talked to them about Hogwarts, and he mentioned everyone being accepted. "Yes, I am curious. Do you know any non-humans?" She tried to sound as polite as possible. She sat in her seat, still hungry. She had only given herself a little bit of food earlier. She was careful to unwrap her chopsticks with careful hands.

==Finally. Someone expressed their remorse and gentle sympathy when faced with a Koldovstoretz student, which felt new and foreign based upon how much these Hogwarts students seemed to value their own excitement and party-going ways above anyone else. Bloom Silverton was special in that way. Fyodor really did appreciate the kindness and sympathy he was finally afforded. He dipped his head at Bloom. "Thank you," he smiled softly and looked down at his plate, sparsely decorated with pumpkin pasties and other such silly little candies he wasn't used to at his own school.

Koldovstoretz was not as big as Hogwarts, lacked the big towers and sheer mass of the student body. Four houses with so many students that Fyodor seriously doubted he'd be able to remember any more than, like, twenty. At his school, there were sparse cabins and the campus wasn't as massive as this by any means. At any rate, they sure didn't have a giant squid in the lake. Which was an interesting little nugget of information that Fyodor had heard on the way over.

He admired the Hogwarts students in that way. Far too many people for him.

"Yes, I do. I do the broom racing," Fyodor grinned and reached down, took a bite of a pumpkin pasty, and chewed thoughtfully. "Very very high in the air. I am very good at the flying, very fast. But sometimes I fall off so high up. Do you play sports?"

It was truly wonderful to express himself and what he enjoyed doing to someone who was interested.

Examining Bloom's robes momentarily, squinted at the colors that decorated her robes. Blue. He wracked his brain to try and figure out which house that meant. Blue, red, green, yellow. Which was which? Fyodor took a gamble. "So... you are a Ravenclaw? Yes? That is you?"

I really value when people use violence for me, it's actually one of my love languages.

as Maximilien de Fostoncy
French | English | #586d9d
“-Ravenclaw.” Maxi repeated after André, finding the name much weirder than he had thought. It’s like a combination of “raven” and “claw”, wasn’t it? In his years of English learning, he had never met such an intriguing name like this. And most importantly, both words had no relation to the colour blue. He knew that his cousins were in the house of yellow and red, but those names…ah, again he could not remember them clearly. But anyway, the name “Hogwarts” itself was fun enough for Maxi. What an intriguing school.

With a shrug he dismissed the thoughts. Maybe he’d consider them later on, when he met some local students of this English school. “Indeed, they seem quiet enough.” he nodded to André. “Unlike those.” Maxi made a gesture at the Gryffindor table. As far as he knew his second cousin Edmund was a loud and merry person, and it seemed that a red tie perfectly suited him. A small, almost untouchable yet thankful nod was given to his friend, who kindly mentioned the “good view” in the front. Ah, the teachers would be fun to observe. He was eager to catch a glimpse of the “moon lady” and the “clock headmaster” (only, what’s a Beauty and the Beast?), whom he was pretty sure would be amazing people.

Tilting his head to André slightly in order to hear his friend’s words more clearly (oh gosh, the hall was just chaotic), Maxi’s dark grey eyes were lit a bit. That was his good André, who went straight and picked up the topic of that professor’s tales. “I don't trust him, I don't think you should either.” he heard him suggesting, with green eyes falling on him. Maxi quickly moved his own eyes away to the floating candles. He knew that André was more reasonable than himself and far realistic, but how he wished the tales were true! Just imagine…

“I’m not trusting him.” he denied quietly, soft eyes fell on his friend again. “Just…his stories sound like fun, especially the spirit one, about the - the head of Sli-ser-lin. The bard one, yes. he pronounced the house name in English with difficulty. “But I agree. They won’t let such a weird person - I mean the clock-headmaster - run this honourable school while there are plenty of capable wizards out there.” Indeed, André had a point. Maxi had to start to admit that maybe he was wrong after all.

“Anyway…let’s see if that man’s words have basis. That’s the headmaster, I believe.” he boldly pointed to the old man even though the move was rather impolite. Maxi examined the professors for a while quietly before turning back to André. “Well…actually, I don’t think his armour can hold the clock things that may make the tick sounds.” he said rather disappointedly while continuing to examine the adults in critical eyes. “Maybe you’ve got a point. I mean, I think I’m slowly getting to realize the fact that these Englishmen are not the best story-tellers. They don’t even know how to make up a tale properly.”

It was truly disappointing. If this story was not true, then the others certainly could not be. Oh, why couldn’t they just have better tales? And as for André…well, André was always right. Maxi sighed a little bit, and began to feel thankful for having such a rational companion. Or, he would eventually be turned into a wizard android himself one day due to his credulous nature - and Maxi was quite sure of it. “Let’s sit down, perhaps?” he suggested, secretly hoping that the food might be served soon.

Halloween Feast
After Cash asked whether the broad, tall, jet-black-haired boy was Nate or not, the boy confirmed it. Cash smile in relief knowing that the picture that their mother sent them before this day (do not ask how their mother have a picture of Nate since Cash also wondered the same thing) was indeed correct. It will be an embarrassing moment if they guess it wrong.

After the green eyes seated beside the Koldovstoretz student, the curly boy spun around so now he was face to face with Cash. But with how packed it is at the table, he bumped his shoulder against the other boy he had sat next to. The boy that sat next to Nate let out a complaint which is understandable with how full the table is than it usually is.

Nate then apologized to Cash and spun around for a moment to the complaining boy. Cash could not saw what Nate said or did to the boy, all Cash see was the boy stay quiet and lower his head. Cash tried to suppress their smirk. Once Nate was done dealing with the pesky young Slytherin, he turned around again.

Green met blue and all so sudden an image of people with blue eyes popped into their minds. The two of them are Cricket Mercury and Henry Knight. The Cuban descendant always wonders about the former whereabouts. The young Ironwoods took all in Nate's appearances. The boy also did the same to Cash.

For a moment the bustling and noises of Great Hall seem mute. His blue eyes compliment Nate's whole feature perfectly. Cash let out a playful smirk. "Take a photo, it will last longer "They said to Nate playfully. The staring contest seems like forever. When in reality, it is not that long. Their reverie broke when Nate said it was an honor meeting Cash.

The Beater shot Nate a smile. "It is also an honor and pleasure to meet you too"They replied. Nate then grabbed Cash's hand and introduced himself properly. When the green eyes thought it was an ordinary handshake, Cash thought wrong. Nate then switch his grip and kissed the back of Cash's hand.

At that gesture, Cash raised both of their eyebrows. What surprised them, even more, was the wink that Nate delivered after that. Cash tried very hard not to blush but it seems their whole body reacted the opposite way. The third-year then clear their throat. It seems so wrong acting that way when just a few days ago, they received a devastating letter. But life must go on.

"Never thought I would enter Hogwarts again"He joked as his blue eyes glancing around the Great Hall. "But it was worth it"Nate added to his earlier statement and his blue eyes fell down upon Cash. Cash tried not to read too much into the whole thing. Yes, Nate can be an introvert from all the letters that the pair had done but Cash was not prepared for this flirty side of the second-year boy.

"I am sorry that you got to endure all of that"Cash emphasized with all the things that Nate had gone through the first time he visited this very school. Nate had told them about his panic attack that Cash can related, about the devastating attack that was caused by S.C.A.R and how bad it is in general that experience for him.

Cash knows all about hardship and trauma in one young life. It will leave you an invisible permanent scar. At this point, Cash did not know what else they should say to the boy. So they gave him their reassuring smile. "Maybe with some more pleasant memories this time then"Nate expressed and laugh softly.

His laugh is so soothing and Cash never knows they need it. Get a grip, Ironwoods! You are not having a crush on this boy this soon Cash chided themselves internally. "Hopefully"Cash said after they shake out their inner thoughts. "Maybe you can convince me that Hogwarts isn't all bad after all. Maybe there are secret passages and secrets you'd like to share with me?"The jet-black curly-haired boy suggested with a raised eyebrow.

"Sadly I can not tell you what or where Hogwarts secret passages are. For all I care you could be a spy in training or something"They let out a playful banter. "For the secrets part there is none"Cash stated. The none part was a lie. Cash wanted to tell Nate that they are Parsel but was afraid of what Nate might react to the fact. So Cash just smiles at him.

A good relationship was not based on lies their mother once said. Oh, how hypocrite of her. "So, how is the experience so far this time around?"They inquired Nate. Hopefully, Cash can help Nate building and making many new pleasant memories regarding to this Scottish Highland school called Hogwarts.

Interacting with Fyodor (@Maggie Hawkins)
Open to Interactions! (Come meet Bloom!)
To Bloom, it seemed that Fyodor had opened up. Why he decided to speak more than before was beyond her. Perhaps it was because she asked about sports and it was something that he related to? Little did she know that it was because she showed kindness about the Koldovstoretz students who perished over the summer by a bombing in Hogsmeade from the S.C.A.R. terrorist group.

"Oh, so fun!" she said, responding to his mention of broom racing. She hadn't met a lot of people who do broom racing. Most go with the traditional Quidditch sport. She couldn't help but to smile at his mention of being very fast on the broom. "We'll see about that," she joked. It was definitely one of the most dangerous sports they have and she knew that there were some Hogwarts students that were 'fast' as well.

"I used to play Quidditch. I... Stopped. I needed to focus on my studies and could not juggle them both," she said, honestly.

Bloom mimicked and also grabbed a pumpkin pasty, except she did not eat the delectable. The smell of the cookie was definitely enticing, but she did not feel like eating it at that moment. She just had the urge to grab one.

For a second, Bloom looked around and she saw more new faces than she did familiar ones. She wanted to explore more of the room.

"Fyodor, it was nice to meet you. I'm going to walk around for a bit," she said, feeling that she had kept a good amount of time chatting. "I hope to see you on the field!" she said, while leaving.

Bloom had no idea where to go, but she finally took a bite of her pumpkin pasty. It was definitely delicious. She stood on the other side of where she was and looked around. Hoping that maybe someone would come up to her this time around.

His glare that was directed towards Shamsi subsided as Ohashi-san spoke up against Shamsi as well. Kobayashi-san, however, seemed to have a comment directed towards him before she addressed Shamsi. "Thank you Shimizu-san. But I can still defend myself. Have you seen my brother? He is skilled in martial arts." He was mildly surprised that Kobayashi-san spoke up to reassure him that she could aptly defend herself against Shamsi. Akira nodded to her slightly, showing that he had heard and understood her. Perhaps he had stepped up a bit too quickly, when he should've let her handle the situation herself. Certainly, she was capable, and the older Kobayashi-san (her brother) was renowned for his ability to hold his own in a fight. He could only expect the same of his sister.

"And when you are speaking to others. It is impolite just to call them by their name unless you know them very well. This is Shimizu-san to you." Ohashi-san explained plainly to Mr. Stevenson on his behalf. Inwardly, he was impressed that Ohashi-san had followed up on his comment to Mr. Stevenson. He did not find it appropriate to tell the blond boy how impolite he was to address him as 'Shimizu' in such a straight-forward manner, but it was certainly more apt when it came from one of his fellow classmates in purple. "Thank you for explaining, Ohashi-san," he responded quietly to his classmate in Japanese to show his appreciation in how well she upheld her values. He had a feeling he could count on her.

He gave Mr. Knight a brief smile while he addressed him as 'Shimizu-san'. Akira was mildly impressed that the older boy knew his Japanese etiquette. "Yes, we'll be happy to answer any questions you may have about our school as well," he assured him, as did Kobayashi-san. It was fair enough, and he was eager to help others learn about his school during this foreign exchange.

He chose a box of unagi-don, accompanied by miso soup, picked vegetables, and edamame beans, and took a few bites with his chopsticks after folding a hashioki (chopsticks holder) for himself using the paper. So, from what Mr. Knight described, the students at Hogwarts varied in their personalities, but the school was known for their acceptance of non-human students. "Yes, you've answered my question perfectly, Mr. Knight, thank you for that," he said. Indeed, the boy had been thorough and explained it well. "Regarding your question about classes at Mahoutokoro, all first to fifth year boarding students take Charms, Transfiguration, Herbology, Potions, Divination, History, Astronomy, and the Study of Magical Creatures. I hear that our curriculum is rigorous, but I really have no way to compare. Are they similar to the classes you take at Hogwarts? And yes, our school has a dueling team, of which I am a member. We also have the standard quidditch and broom racing teams, along with Mumajin, or muggle, sports like judo," he explained and paused, wondering if that context was enough for Mr. Knight and whether he had follow-up questions, because that was a lot of information to take in at once.

He listened intently as Kobayashi-san asked a question about the non-human races that were accepted into Hogwarts. Ohashi-san followed up to as if the boy knew any non-humans. How interesting. There were bound to be some non-human students with them in the Great Hall this moment, considering that some Hogwarts students were non-human, and practically all of them were there for the feast. "What are the odds that a non-human student is with us here this moment? Do the students at Hogwarts have any idea as to how many non-human classmates they have?" he asked of Mr. Knight, curiosity gleaming in his dark brown eyes.

Ayu leaned against the table, eager to hear about her new acquaintances. They seemed friendly enough, introducing themselves almost as eagerly as Ayu and informing her about their past visits to Hogwarts. Conveniently, it appeared each of them was a different school, Beauxbatons, Illvermony, Durmstrang and Koldovstoretz. Koldovstoretz. It was quite a strange name wasn't it? A hard name too. But to be fair, Mahoutokoro wasn't the easiest thing to say either. Even Ayu took a while to get used to it.

"Oh, no it's fine," she smiled when the girl from Beauxbatons asked about honorifics. "I mean, I don't really want to force you guys to do something you're unfamiliar with, you know?" She shrugged, taking a bite of her food. She was quite surprised when she learned that other languages didn't use honorifics. She thought it was quite strange, wouldn't it seem impolite? But she figured that Japanese people were just maybe, extra polite. Or, something like that. But, she would have to get used to hearing Ayu instead of Ayu-Chan.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came up from behind her. "Oh!" She turned to her Quidditch teammate. "Hey, Aryaan-Kun!" she greeted him, quite confused on why he was speaking English, but she figured it was for the other students sitting at the table. "Sure, you can sit here," she scooted over, making room for the boy.

"Grades huh?" she laughed, staring over at the table she was sitting at earlier. "Sounds like something they'd do. The one time we're not in class they decide to talk about grades. Like, seriously?" She raised an eyebrow.

With her lavender robes, she didn't care much for grades. Her focus was more Quidditch and well, popularity probably. After all, was being smart and stuff worth it if you had nobody to talk to? Of course, she tried to maintain an average grade at all times, but she didn't have any plans to stand out or be some kind of prodigy.

Fanny was so happy. She was going to visit Hogwarts, that school of witchcraft. She was also going to see Lisa, her half-sister, whom she had not seen since they met. In short, she was very excited, which rarely happened to her. The journey was long, very long. But it was worth it.
The students of Beauxbatons were in front of the great castle. At Hogwarts, there were many schools. There was a Japanese school, Mahoutokoro, an American school, Ilvermorny and there was also Durmstrang. Fanny didn't know where that school was. Fanny tried to find, through all these students, Lisa. She was seen on one of the four tables. She waved to her. But Lisa did not see her. Fanny turned to one of her friends from Beauxbatons, River. She said to her:
-Salut. C'est gigantesque n'est-ce pas?Hi. It's huge, isn't it?
Then Lisa saw Fanny and waved to her. Fanny smiled at her and tried to join her. There were lots of people. Fanny passed some students from Mahoutokoro who seemed to be arguing.
- Hi Lisa! I'm so happy to see you! Wait, let me introduce you to a friend of mine, River.

Charles chuckled a little at Drew remembering and stating Cassie's full name, the teen waited for the girl to speak before jumping as he playful spoke" you forgot a name though. Isn't it Cassie Heather McShortly Mcgregor-Martin," giving a half grin to both of his friends before taking a large bite of the sausage that stuck to his fork.

The two discussed the gossip, Charles halfheartedly paid attention. The blonde was grinning, eyes shining with glee when the realization came to him. He was back at Hogwarts and with his friends, that's not something that Charles Nako Alluring can say every casual day.

Most days at Dumstrang, the teen usually is practicing quidditch or getting into fights or messing with his two favorite Dumstrangs; Felix and Arjan. He didn't quite have loads of friends at his own school and his homelife was more stressful with the secrets that he's gay and has a boyfriend that he's keeping from his family. Yet visiting Hogwarts, being with Cassie and Drew he felt like himself and for a few days he couldn't be somebody else- he could be himself.

"untransfigured," Charles replied to Cassie's struggles with the word as she told the two boys the Hogwarts gossip. Charles was curious about how the professor turned into a orangutan and wondered if he could sneak the book back to Dumstrang to 'experiment' with a few classmates.

Charles rolled his eyes a bit and playful nudged Cassie's shoulder toward her comment as he spoke"we were talking about academics before you purposely changed the subject," shaking his head a bit as he brushed back his blonde hair, listening to Drew talk about pronouncing Maher correctly then laughed a little at Cassie's words on how to pronounce the different schools. Finding his friends words a bit humorous, the blonde joked, " I had a extensive education after all," grinning toward both as he turned his eyes to Cassie who spoke next.

"Mahoutokoro is known for strict classes and because you loath classes doesn't mean everyone does Cass," Charles replied having a feeling that his friends knew he hated classes as well, after all his average grade usually was close to failing or failing in any book type class. Charles was wondering if Ilvermorny was known for anything as he playful ruffled Cassie's hair and spoke"but Dumstrang is known for having a world class quidditch team and everyone knows quidditch is the best sport," grinning at Cassie as he leaned across the girl to playfully ruffle Drew's hair as well so he didn't feel left out.

The conversation changed and Charles took another bite or sausage as he listened to Drew words about Hogwarts inviting another magical school every year. Stating the five current ones then says there are eleven in total, the blonde nodded toward his friend whole Cassie gave a larger reaction one that he grown use to from his muggleborn friend.

"Yes, eleven schools in total Cass," Charles replied to Cassie and looked over at Drew silently asking him to take turns to answer Cassie's questions allowing Drew to answer second before answering her third one as he spoke "there's a wizarding community in nearly every part of the world, a couple hundreds of thousands or millions. I suck at math but the magical community is rather large but also hidden which explains why you haven't heard of it a lot Cass." Charles gave a grin over toward Drew, the blonde thought the two answered her questions rather good as the girl from Mahoutokoro their table.

Noting the girl; Ayu appeared younger than the third year trio. Charles took a guess that she wss a first year, it was odd he could have sworn she felt familiar to him or maybe because the young girl reminded him of his young cousin who he cared for deeply.

Cassie started asking the girl questions about Japanese culture and traditions involving her name. The blonde stayed quiet expect when he heard Cassie struggle with how to pronounce a certain word in English and lightly whispered to her how to pronounce the word in English, "Honorifics," before taking another bite of sausage which surprisingly the food at Hogwarts tasted rather good.

Listening to Cassie asked the Mahoutokoro girl if she wanted the trio to use a honorific and the blond listened to her answer, nodding at Ayu and slightly happy that they didn't need to use them with her. However Charles heard the ending to her words and decided to move away from the topic, one to one that he particularly loved as he spoke" I heard you ask about quidditch, do you play or are you a fan?" The blonde would take a moment for the girl to reply before offering her a nod as he spoke" I'm the first string chaser for the Dumstrang quidditch team," the Dumstrang playfully ruffled Cassie's hair a little as he continued" which is the best quidditch team in all the schools." Back to introductions, Cassie stated her school claiming it was the best in both worlds and choosing not to argue with the girl while Drew stated his school, year, and name.

" I'm Charles or Charlie, fourth year Dumstrang and it is a pleasure to meet you Ayu," Charles spoke offering a small nod and grin toward the two girls as he playfully nudged at Cassie and spoke" the one who is more proud of her school than her name is Cassie Heather McShorty Mcgregor-Martin Frechie." Grinning at Cassie as he then playfully ruffled Cassie's hair before attempting to playful squeeze at Drew's arm as he spoke" I'm the resident eldest and tallest of the trio if your curious," Charles promised both his friends that he'll never let it drop that he's both the oldest and tallest (until Drew grows taller than him) of their small group for the time being.

Charles was used to speaking russian at Dumstrang that the language became second nature to him, nearly forgetting that his two best friends didn't understand the language when he looked at their faces and questioned, "what?" Barely catching Drew's words, asking what he said to the girl then understanding their confusion with Cassie's comment about speaking english as he spoke" Oh! Apologies, I forgot neither of you speak russian which I can always teach the two of you if you want," Charles then looked back at the girl as he asked her in English this time sorry of repeating Cassie's question, " can you speak english? Just some don't understand Russian. "
