Antonio had taken out his flask from his jacket pocket. He was taking a sip of the hard liquor inside of it. Letting out a sigh, enjoying the burning taste of the alcohol. He licked his lips, wanting to savour a few drips of liquor that stuck to his mustache. Putting away his flask before looking over at Kennedy. “
Gotta enjoy the little things in life, Milly.” Antonio said with a smile. He was ensuring not to show that their comments were not like arrows piercing his heart. Smiling at a house elf that had placed some food before him. Looking at it, he noticed it was shepherd's pie. It was not something he’d usually like to eat. However, it was better than nothing. He would mostly cook authentic Italian food like his mother would make when he was a child. He puts some shepherd’s pie onto his plate before biting it.
“
They got me doin Herbology. It right up my alley actually. Pops had a green thumb, and I must've got it form him. Although history of magical beast could ave’ been fun to teach.” He said, budding into the conversation. Pieces of food flew onto his plate and table. He thought he was an expert in magical creatures. Turning his head to speak to Liam. “
Muggle Studies? Nice, I’ve met quite a few muggles before. They're a good lot, and I got a few muggle mates who I go bar hoppin with.” Saying this casually, not caring if they were xenophobic or not. Indeed, he had a few muggle friends, people he had known since he was a kid. They were good people, but he didn’t understand the hatred towards non-magical people.
He ate his food while occasionally taking a small sip of his flask. Taenar's mention of Wesley perked his ears. He had heard of that name before; he thought that a member of the Wesley clan could have been his former classmate. He looked over at Taenar, who had stopped eating and fixed his eyebrows by licking his pointer and pinkie finger. Rubbing them through his bushy eyebrows and smiling in her direction. “
Dark arts eh? Sounds like a alot of fun. Beat your a real good teacher.”
