As they walked, Maximus listened and noted that she seemed a little flustered with the way she was trying to explain things. He could agree when she told him that words weren't her strong suit and thus he nodded politely as he considered his own words. He was often far less apt to ramble, often keeping his thoughts to himself until they were fully formed and he was certain of what to say.
"Pardon me fer sayin' such, but tis a very progressive way o' thinkin' wit' the equality o' it all," he said after a moment. "Nay tha' tis a bad thin', jus' different than I be expectin'. All the rest seems te be simply common sense, though I seppose there be plenty o' youngsters who be needin' such teachin'."
With his hands still behind his back, he looked over at Lady Hufflepuff and offered her a slightly grim smile. "But te 'ave this kind o' access te vast amounts o' knowledge o' the magical arts...tis unbelievable unless ye see it with yer own eyes. An' I now 'ave. I know tha' me sister would thrive 'ere jus' fer that alone. An' te learn directly from those who know such things, tha' be even more invaluable."
"Tis a shame tha' ye d'nay 'ave someone te look after tha' knowledge. Those tomes be one o' the most beautiful sights I 'ave ever laid me eyes on," he admitted, showing a bit of his quiet scholarly side. He wasn't all just swords and horses after all, he had a natural curiosity that was often filled by reading various subjects. "I 'ope ye find someone soon te take a 'old o' them."
Maximus had no such designs for himself, having not even considered taking a job here. As far as he knew he was simply here to see the place for himself so he could relay the information to their parents in regards to Moira studying here. He didn't know that his younger brother had been working to get him a stable place at the school as well.
