"Oh, well, now he won't talk for like, the rest of the tour," Jory said, teasing again. "First time I met him he was on a computer. I think he might like it more than his wand." Ever since their almost date he'd been in a pretty good mood and he couldn't help but tease a little. He was pretty sure that even seeing Jai wouldn't affect him very much.

"Nuh-uh," Indigo said absently. Losing either one would be like cutting off his air supply, but magic was part of him. Of course, he'd still have magic, it'd just be uncontrolled... He refused to admit that Jory could be right. "If you knew anything about phones, you'd love this too," he said. He'd just show Jory that it was also a computer later. His mind was filled with possibilities of things they couldn't do.

Cat grinned. His dad knew about computers and stuff, but he wasn't into them that much. The one at home was a tool more than the toy he realized it could be. He'd never really gotten into them. "So what kind of magic are you guys into?" he asked. "You aren't required to choose a major until your second year, but it's helpful to have a direction."

"Divination," Jory said. "Any kind I can get my hands on. Astronomy's my favorite, though." Something he did love about his current job was being able to study whatever he wanted without many restrictions. He hoped he'd be able to do a lot of the same kind of thing once he started going here. It might even be more freedom.

"Then you'll want to be a Divination major," Cat said. "VU has the four biggest types, Basic Divination, Astronomy, Runes, and Arithmancy, so you're in luck. If you do find another branch that you're interested in, the school's very open to suggestions. You, with the Muggle toy, what are you into?"

Indigo blinked, then looked up. "Uh, I guess I'm good at potions," he said. Maybe he wasn't entirely sure what he wanted to do, but that was part of college, right? You were supposed to go find yourself and stuff, whatever that involved. "I don't want to work with computers or anything, but I don't know." He glanced over at Jory. Would it be bad to say Divination just to hope they had some classes together? Eventually...

"Are the professors here cool? I mean, most of the ones at Hogwarts are great, they know their stuff and they're good teachers. The ones at my old school weren't as great," Jory said. Although it had been a horrible thing that had originally made him move, he was quite glad he had in the end. Kind of. Okay, so there had been a lot of bad things that had happened at Hogwarts.

"Oh yeah, they're amazing," Cat said. "There are a lot of really young ones who weren't sure they fit in at their schools and some really old ones who came out of retirement, but they're like the students for the most part; open-minded." It was something he really loved about the University. Yes, his school back home had been pretty good about things, but everyone here was so young and alive, so constantly moving.

All this talk of being open-minded pulled Indigo's attention away from his phone, and he tucked it back into his pocket. Maybe when he left Hogwarts, when he came here, he could open up a little. Maybe even before he left Hogwarts. "Is there like, a newspaper around here? I hadn't heard of this place in the Daily Prophet or anything."

"The media hasn't noticed us yet," Cat said. If they had, he was sure he'd have heard about it from Castiel. As it was, they were still relatively unknown. "I've heard people ask about it a couple times, but no one's got anything started. If that was something you'd be into, I'd say bring it up when you're enrolled."

Indigo almost said that he wanted nothing to do with the media, but stopped short. He liked working for Cauldron, so what if he got in on a school newspaper? If he was in on it, really in on it as opposed to being a peon for an international magazine, maybe he could keep himself out of it. His parents would want to read it, but still, it was a thought. He was quiet for now, trying to work through the idea.

"That could be cool," Jory said, looking over at Indigo. "We've both done work for a magazine." There was still a year before Indigo could start attending, but it was something to consider. Maybe Indigo could become some big famous newsperson. Well, no, probably not, Jory didn't know if he could see Indigo going that far.

"That's cool," Cat said. Two guys from Hogwarts who worked for a magazine. His brother had to know them. "It's not Cauldron, is it?" he asked. "My brother's a huge fan, he's a Ravenclaw. Name's Castiel. Do either of you know him?"

Indigo reddened and pulled his phone back out for something to look at besides Cat. "I know him," he said. Him and Mari. He knew Mari very very well in some ways. "He's nice." And yet Indigo suspected that he wouldn't be nice if he ran into him again, now that he'd dumped Mari.

"Yeah, I met him and his friend Mari on the train to school," Jory said, though with Indigo's reaction it was probably best not to talk too much about the pair. Not that Jory really wanted to talk about them, anyway. "They seemed...close." Weird. "They knew us from Cauldron." It really was kind of nice being recognized sometimes.
