Closed muggle vs magic: round one

[Finley Mackintosh Baros]

Finley looked at Angelo and shrugged, honestly he wasn’t sure of all the differences, but he was going to try anyway. It wasn’t like he was an expert on what was different, he just knew sort of most of what he knew about the wizarding world. He didn’t spend a lot of time in the muggle world to be honest, even though his mother was a muggle teacher, it just sort of worked out this way because his dad, of course, was a healer and he lived with his dad in Brightstone. Not far from St Mungo’s. “Well, the article is supposed to compare, I guess, so muggle vs magical classes kind of works, but yeah no I wouldn’t say we don’t have science, or english and maths, well, I mean we sort of learn latin, with spells, and we learn english just in passing I guess, from like History of Magic sort of, and for science we have potions, and herbology and astronomy, care of magical creatures and some places also have alchemy which is basically like super magical science. My mum is a muggle teacher so I know some of it.” He explained, writing down some notes in the book so they could go over them later for the article.

Since Angelo had been learning a lot of different... differences between the wizarding and normal people - muggles, they'd call it - he'd asked Finley that perhaps it was best for them to start writing it down. Just so people like him - like Angelo - who was so new to this world would have some help just like him and so they would know as well that someone was just as confused as they were. Which is how he and Finley had ended up in the Student Lounge, the Gryffindor sat on the couch while Angelo was settled comfortably on the floor, notebook on the coffee table he'd pulled towards him so he could write more easily while he leaned against Finley's legs for comfort. He wrote most of what Finley was saying though it was still confusing. "Don't you like ano need to learn grammar for the English, kasi we've been writing so many essays. I don't think I been doing very good in some of them, I got an A in one of the homeworks," he said frowning. "And did I cut the Math class? I don't remember going this year." Angelo didn't think he'd missed it in his schedule. "I guess the science is weird kasi, I mean because, we've been uh we've been studying the bones and the body in the last two years? Like where is your kidney, what does your lungs does and, how many bones is there in your toes?" he tilted his head at his notes in thought, biting the end of the pen. "Like... I don't think we have botany and zoology in elementary and highschool. Maybe college? But the Astronomy we have, though we don't take that at night. Night is for being at home and bedtime." That had been weird. Being required to be up late in the night for class, and it was such a huge adjustment too.​
