Kallima Darling
Joseph and Valen were awfully smart and Kally was having issues following. It wasn't so much that they used word she didn't understand, but that the way they phrased things, well mostly the way Valen phrased things, seemed like he was trying too hard to be smart. That was alright though, because the topic of discussion seemed a little boring any how. She had hadn't expected to be called upon. "Um... well...." she stuttered, trying to get her thoughts in order, "I think traditions important, because it reminds us of where we come from and can be rather comforting. It's a part of culture and I certainly think it's an important element of our lives and stuff. But I also think that people need to be accepting of change, because traditions can get outdated and no longer necessary. And if the traditions are keeping us from being prepared than that can be a problem, as the world isn't always very nice and we need to be ready for that."Kally finished, feeling fairly successful, as she thought she had kept to the middle ground fairly nicely. She didn't want to upset either of the boys by joining the others side, and she didn't really have an opinion either way. She didn't see why they were arguing this so much. It seemed kinda dumb to argue something none of them had any control over. Anyways couldn't they both be right?

((I'm typing this in a car rn, oops) Valen Accardi Valen said slowly, considering Joseph's words, "Yes...I suppose I never thought of it that way. If you look at the greater scheme of things, wizard and witchkind are not prepared for the real world - magical or Muggle. There are numerous reasons for this, but like we were talking about before, the false veneer of teamwork Hogwarts puts up. The staff says they foster cooperation, but is that not only within Houses? What about intra-house connections? Are balls and dances the only time where we come together?"The Ravenclaw was near gobsmacked at how much he missed. A life of theoretical knowledge certainly did not do him any good. He was by no means naive or misinformed, but he did tend to look at things unrealistically at times. Poor Kally next to him probably wore rose-tinted glasses perpetually. But he could tell she was smart, and maybe she'd understand and care. If there was going to be change in the Wizarding World, it had to start with a few.
