    The Tortoise and the Hare

    August perked up an almost surprised eyebrow as Persephone mentioned that she could consider working on her flying skills if she had a experienced enough flying instructor. Okay, he wasn’t the brightest tea leaf in the cup, but was she suggesting that he teach her? “Truly a tragedy.” August smirked at her because, really, it was a tragedy for anyone to not be graced with decent flying skills. The world didn’t need anymore Nate Wilde’s plummeting around towards the ground. “If only there was some bloke that could help you perfect such a skill.” Trying to play it cool August merely shrugged, although a smile did however stay on his face the whole time. August wasn’t quite sure why, but he wanted her to ask him to teach her - if that’s even what Persephone was really getting at.

    Hearing her correction to his first name and steering away from all that proper nonsense made August chuckle. “Well Persephone,” He teased her name out to slightly mock her almost mistake. “I find it hard to see you as anything but fragile. Tiny little thing that you are.” August gestured with a wave of his hand towards her as if their height difference could really be noticed with the both of them sitting. Sure, everyone was tiny in Augusts eyes because he’d been granted the gift of being a freak of nature with his height, but it was ever amusing to see the small blonde only make it up to his chest. Maybe he should suggest a walk sometime, but he wasn’t sure how he could sell it to her without studying being involved somehow.

    “Sounds like coursework is going to have to wait for another boring day!” Almost gleefully, August closed the few books that he had out on the table and tucked them into his bag. “Because I do believe we have a challenge on our hands.” Despite the fact that he was probably walking into his own failure, all of it felt like success for the moment since it meant the studying was done and he wouldn’t have to read a single thing about wands again for at least a few days. “Where do you suggest we go anyways?” Augusts expression changed to confusion for a moment because actively practicing spells wasn’t exactly a thing he did outside of class. The end result left him standing there a bit dumbstruck as he waited for Persephone to comply to the fact that this was happening right now and to lead the way.

    Word Count: 432
    August is currently recovering from amnesia. For the past year and seven months he's been living under the name "Peter" as a LC muggle. He is very slowly remembering bits and pieces of his old life, and thusly will probably not recall your character at all as of right now.
