It didn't seem that much of a problem to him if such a family's name died out, taking their ideas with them, but he knew that Lia had a brother... so what was the family even worried about? "Guess I'm lucky, being an orphan," he decided, watching her trace shapes against the table. He had very little attachment to his last name, to carrying on a family he didn't even know. At least he got to avoid all those expectations.

"There's a lot we can't help, but why should we feel like we ought to be any different than what we are?" Maybe it was good nobody had choice in those matters, even if sometimes he wished he wasn't born a wizard at all. Could have avoided all this entirely. "A name's just a name. If I had a kid," and he rolled his eyes, glad that rumor seemed to be dying down the last couple days after the attack on the school giving students more important things to focus on. "Well, I'd care more about making sure they were happy. That's far more important, isn't it? And your parents did a pretty shitty job at that." He didn't need to know details to know that much.

James laughed lightly, rubbing roughly at the dark circles under his eyes. "Nah, listen. I just fake it."
