Billie scrunched up her face in disappointment about dragons, but, if she were to be honest, she wasn't so sure she wanted to meet one face-to-face. Her smile soon returned, and she stood up straighter. "Well, maybe if quidditch people keep making dumb rules, you could come teach flying at Hogwarts! Well, I mean, if the person who does it already quits or something." Gus would certainly make school more fun.

Not being able to do magic when not at school wasn't something on her mind, at the moment. It wasn't as if she knew any spells, yet, so the reality of the fact hadn't fully set it. Come summer, or even Christmas break, she'd probably realize that disappointment when she couldn't show Gideon all the amazing things she learned.

"Soot likes everyone, but maybe you're right. He might get jealous." She conceded in response to Gideon's niffler comments. Despite it, she seemed to walk with a spring in her step, her imagination running wild about all of her Hogwarts expectations. Despite the serious anxiety about having to go there as a girl, there seemed to be so much she wished to do.

"I hope it's as good as everyone says."
