The way he asked if he had her name right, when the look on his face said he clearly knew he was, made her chuckle and simply nod her agreement until he asked if he should call her Professor Smith! The very question made her blanche slightly and had her shaking her head at him. If she'd known him better she might have given him a playful punch in the shoulder, but that was more familiar than she was willing to be with someone she didn't know well.<br/><br/>"Good memory Scorpius Malfoy," she said, mostly to show she knew his name as well, even if not for the reasons he might assume, " but I don't even expect my students to call me Professor Smith, at least not so long as they're doing their work, so I certainly wouldn't expect anyone else to either. If I ever make a career of teaching then<em>maybe</em>I'll think about the title. For now though, Athena suits me just fine. besides, what's a title worth when my Mother named me after a Goddess?" she asked and laughed softly at the hubris in comparing herself to a diety in any way!<br/><br/>Thinking on what he had said about his summer she gave a small shrug, "If you enjoy the Quidditch practice than I'd qualify it as good. The way you mention the social events they sound more like an obligation than an enjoyment though. I don't know about Magical Society, but I've done some rather boring business parties with my Father, so I can get doing things just because your parents want you to anyway. Do you think Magical soirees are as dull as business parties?" she asked with a clear interest in his answer. While her Mother had been adamant in seeing to her magical education, she had still grown up in a mostly Muggle world because they moved around according to her Father's business needs.<br/><br/>"For myself, as long as I get to hit the reefs and do some diving, maybe a bit of surfing as well if the waves are agreeable, I am a happy woman. Dueling practice with Mom is always interesting as well...and you are letting me ramble on! You shouldn't let a woman do that, we can talk incessantly if you don't force a word in edgewise!" she declared, laughing at herself and shaking her head slightly before going silent and simply looking at him, clearly expecting him to talk now.
