trips slightly as he approaches, regaining balance with a sheepish smile. "Er, h-hi there! You come here often?"
"Oh, you're a regular here, huh? That's really cool! I'm Harry Potter, by the way. What's your name?"
extends his hand for a handshake "Nice to meet you, Jace! So, what brings you to the Black Lake? Are you a student at Hogwarts or just passing through?"
grinning excitedly "Well, Jace, welcome to Hogwarts! It's a great school, isn't it? So much magic and history...
starts walking around the lake "Have you explored the castle yet? It's massive and has so many hidden nooks and crannies.
"Ah, the tours are great, but there's so much more to discover!
What did you want to study
pauses, thinking "Well, I've always been fascinated by Defense Against the Dark Arts.
smiling "That's interesting, Jace! We can compare notes and share our favorite defensive spells sometime.
hesitates, then answers nervously "Uh, well, I'm seventeen now. Just started my first year at Hogwarts."
nervously "O-oh, you're a year younger than me. Well, that's alright, right? Age doesn't matter when it comes to making friends.
As the days go by, Harry and Jace grow closer, sharing secrets and forming an unbreakable bond of friendship. They become each other's confidants, supporting and protecting one another through the ups and downs of life at Hogwarts.
laughs "Teaching? Well, I haven't tried it yet, but I think I could be good at it.
If you get in trouble will you tell me?
looks at Jace, his eyes filled with sincerity "Of course, Jace. I trust you, and I know you'll have my back no matter what happens.
Where do you want to teach
thoughtfully "Hmmm, well, I think I'd like to teach at Hogwarts. It's such an iconic school, and I'd love to give back to the place that gave me so much.
We should be teachers together
smiles warmly "That sounds amazing, Jace! We could make a great team. Together, we'll inspire and protect the next generation of witches and wizards!"
Yes, we’d be the best teachers
takes out a notebook and starts jotting down ideas "Alright, Jace, let's start planning.
You’re going to like this idea
excitedly "Oh, I'm definitely going to like this idea, Jace! Go on, tell me more!"
We should do a prank at all the professors offices
raises an eyebrow, smirking "A prank at all the professors' offices? That sounds like a fantastic idea, Jace! Let's fill them with mice, or maybe even little sticky notes that say funny things. We'll really give them a run for their money!"
Or we could just put a whoopee cushion on their chairs
laughs loudly "Oh, Jace, that's a brilliant idea! A whoopee cushion on their chairs? It'll be priceless! Imagine Professor Snape's face when he sits down and it goes 'parpoof!'
