"See you!" Jasper turns to Arthur. "My friend. Why?" he replies warily. Jay told him many stories about his time at Hogwarts, and while his father didn't know it, Jasper had soaked in the important information; how to act around strangers, good spells to use, etc.

Subject: Arthur Tue Jul 24, 2012 6:56 pm

"Just being curious..." -My face was red as a beat.-

Subject: Jasper Tue Jul 24, 2012 6:58 pm

Jasper grins and lightly punches his shoulder. "Hey, no problem. We all get curious! Speaking of, who are you?"

Subject: Arthur Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:00 pm

OOC "I'm Batman!"

"I'm Arthur, Arthur Strayer." -My face regains it's collection, happy to be on a topic I couldn't get nervous about.-

Subject: Jasper Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:03 pm

OOC: xD

IC: "Nice to meet you! I'm Jasper Hawkeye." A pleased smile spreads across his face at the sound of his own name. Jasper's has always loved his surname. Hawkeye! Who could ask for a better name?

Subject: Arthur Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:04 pm

-I extend my hand to him. Hawkeye sounded familiar, but I can't put my finger on it. Not that it matters anymore, the Death Eaters are far too small to make any kind of credible threat.-

Subject: Jasper Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:06 pm

Jasper shakes his hand, still smiling. I swear... Strayer... Meh. I'll ask Dad. "Have you been sorted yet?"

Subject: Arthur Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:08 pm

"Yes, I'm in Gryffindor. Yourself?"

Subject: Jasper Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:11 pm

"Slytherin. I guess it's 'cause I'm ambitious. I want to make Mum and Dad proud of me."

Subject: Arthur Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:14 pm

-Slytherin, familiar name, and wants to make his parents proud. Funny, I have the same ambition and yet I am in Gryfinddor. So that basically concludes what I was thinking. But there's no need to show hostility.-

"I too want to make my parents proud."

Subject: Jasper Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:16 pm

His expression brightens. "Awesome! Great minds do think alike!"

Subject: Arthur Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:18 pm

"So what was your parent's line of work?"

Subject: Jasper Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:22 pm

"My dad works in the Ministry," he says. "I'm not quite sure what part of it though. It's all confusing and, to be honest, I'm not too fussed. What about yours?"

Subject: Arthur Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:23 pm

"Aurors. The whole lot of my family is, dating back to the founding days of England." -I say proudly.-

Subject: Jasper Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:25 pm

"Woah! That's a long time." Jasper's eyes are wide and he stares at Arthur.

Subject: Arthur Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:26 pm

-I smile proudly.- "My dad is the best leader the families ever had."

Subject: Jasper Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:28 pm

He tilts his head to the side, appearing innocent and curious. "Who's your dad?"

Subject: Arthur Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:30 pm

"Artemis Strayer, the famed auror!" -I say proudly.- "Who's yours?"

Subject: Jasper Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:32 pm

That DOES ring a bell! "Jay Hawkeye," he replies, smiling. "He's the best dad ever."

Subject: Arthur Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:34 pm

-Of course! That's why it sounded familiar. -

"Nice, and what was your friends name?"

Subject: Jasper Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:36 pm

I guess her first name couldn't hurt...

"Alexis," he says.

Subject: Arthur Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:38 pm

OOC I love this game of wits! Very Happy

IC

"Alexis... hmmm..." -She was... absolutely stunning.-

Subject: Jasper Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:39 pm

OOC: Same! Very Happy

IC: Jasper raises an eyebrow. "Why d'you want to know?"

OOC: In Jasper's head - http://media-cards.theotaku.com/757168-20100206153831.jpg

Subject: Arthur Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:42 pm

"No reason. Just curious." -I try to regain my collection, remembering all my emotional training.-

OOC I'm smelling a dog fight

Subject: Jasper Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:43 pm

"Curiosity killed the cat, Arthur," Jasper points out. His expression is unreadable, but inside he's all confusion. What's he thinking...?

OOC: Yup, same.
