Time: Afternoon after class
The Mahoutokoro school uniform reflected a student's overall grades and performance at school by the color of their robes. As a result, Ginyami was quite proud of his own navy robes as the only color higher-standing than navy was gold. What he wasn't a fan of was how other schools - like Hogwarts, for example - didn't follow the same custom that Mahoutokoro had.
Because Hogwarts placed less of an emphasis on how well their students were doing academically, Ginyami was certain Hogwarts students must have been pretty stupid as a whole in general. He wasn't surprised, though, given that he was certain that Japanese were the best and most intelligent people in the world. So, naturally, Hogwarts wasn't going to even come close to matching up to Mahoutokoro in his mind.
The funny thing was Ginyami had heard of the Hogwarts houses and he had heard that there was a house that was supposed to value intelligence. 'Ravenclaw', he heard it was called. So, when classes let out and he noticed a student dressed in a uniform sporting Ravenclaw colors, he couldn't help but want to test them a bit. Going up to the student, he tapped her on the shoulder to get her attention.
Regarding the girl, she appeared to have traces of Asian features, but didn't seem to be Japanese. Strangely enough, one of her irises was royal blue, but her left one was dark brown. The sight caused Ginyami to smile as he cleared his throat. "Ah, you have heterochromia, I see," he commented, smirking. "And I imagine it is acquired heterochromia. Or am I wrong?"

"My my, you have heterochromia and you don't even know what kinds there are?" he asked, chuckling softly. "Acquired heterochromia means that the condition is a result of an injury or disease. I was certain you must have acquired it by hitting your head or something, but if you insist it's hereditary, then that just makes you a mutant."
He crossed his arms and stood straighter as she regarded him and his uniform, asking which school he was from. "I am Ginyami Midorimori, a fourth year from the Japanese school of Mahoutokoro, but don't even bother trying to pronounce it. Few foreigners can." He tilted his head at her, his smirk still evident on his face. "I've heard Ravenclaw students are supposed to be the smart ones here at this school and I wanted to test that rumor to see if it was, indeed, true. Tell me, if your house is called 'Ravenclaw', why is your animal an eagle?" he wanted to know.
"Perhaps I've asked the wrong student, however. You seem young - a little too young to know anything of much consequence. Let me guess - you're not even a pureblood, are you? I'm sure a pureblood would have had better manners than you, knowing to introduce themselves before asking about someone else's identity."

Watching the girl's hands curl into fists, Ginyami's grin grew broader. "The name would only be onerous to someone too indolent to bother memorizing it," he replied silkily in dulcet tones. "As you are, it seems."
Clasping his hands behind his back, he listened patiently as the girl explained why the houses were named what they were and how the animals were symbolic. But then Ginyami laughed. "An eagle represents wit and intelligence? Last I checked, ravens were the ones known for their intelligence. What a completely missed opportunity. I wonder what the founder of your house could possibly have been thinking when she chose an eagle for your animal."
The fifth year blinked a couple of times in surprise when the younger student mentioned she was muggle-born, but then his smile was back and it was nastier than ever. "'Respect'?" he repeated slowly. "As if a couple of stupid muggles would have the faintest idea of what respect truly means. Don't act as if I owe you any respect, you disgusting mudblood, because I can assure you I don't."
Taking out his wand, the Japanese teenager aimed it at Sophia. "Slugulus Eructo," he incanted, attempting to perform the Slug-Vomiting Charm. "Maybe you should watch what comes out of that filthy mouth of yours before you speak to your betters like they're your equals."
