"... And also a bit because since my... accident, I kind of can't see so well without them." He admitted. Yeah some seeker he was. Not even able to play at all this year, according to healer orders.
Why was he confessing that? To cover, Jim ran his fingers through his hair all cool like. Yep.
"I'm good I guess. Just... I dunno, studying." Pining for Finlay a bit "Trying to make sense of all this rubbish." He nudged the pile of books gently with his foot. "I'm supposed to figure out what I wanna do when I graduate and all." He eyed her little stack. "You studying or reading for pleasure?"
She'd seen Treyen and Kurumi when entering, but decided it best not to greet him just yet. He'd probably pick up on her whole being sick thing like Ivory had, and make her see their house head, like Ivory hadn't. Or at least
suggest it.
Arya hadn't thought about it before, glasses and Ravenclaws, but now she was. And she honestly didn't know any that wore them.
"I just... chose to ignore them." 'Cause it was a lost cause going out of her way to avoid them. Besides, she had other things like horrid nicknames to avoid.
Leaning back in her seat, she pulled her bottom lip between her teeth.
"So you won't be able to play again?" Like ever? Not that she thought playing was a good thing. It wasn't. Quidditch was a terribly dangerous sport in her opinion.
Arya wasn't buying his whole 'cool act' either, or recognizing it as such. Though he had her attention, Jim was more interesting than a book.
She eyed his stack of books.
"So you wanna..." She didn't know what he wanted to do, not going by his books. Shrug.
"Neither really. I was looking for a place to rest." Her eyes returned to him and she grinned.
"I don't do too much pleasure reading."
