His eyebrows raised at her mention of being muggleborn, but his grin broadened rather than faltered. “I can imagine that too,” he murmured, with a laugh. They’d had one foot in the muggle world, themselves, though at least their mother had given them some idea of what was coming.
He shrugged appreciatively, not sure this did quite make up for the lost Honeydukes, but it might be a start - and, selfishly, he was getting more out of this than he had expected. At still Miss, he lifted his mug to his lips to hide the smile, supposing that he probably should not be extending casual Three Broomsticks stops to unmarried women he didn’t know - especially the sort with piercing blue eyes - but she was a working midwife, and she seemed not to have a problem with it, so. He would chalk it up to a little good luck.
“Oh, I expect it’s a sight more exciting than making brooms,” Elias countered, shaking his head good-naturedly. Not that he wouldn’t much rather be making the brooms (he would much rather stick to brooms), but charming branches to fly was probably less earth-shattering in the scheme of things than helping small screaming humans into the world. He raised his Butterbeer to her before taking another draught. “More impressive, anyway. Bet it keeps you busy.”
