At least it wasn't everyday in Darwins life. It was probably everyday in a lot of other peoples, though, especially if they were magical. And maybe it'd be come an everyday occurrence for him while he was here. Hm.

Biting his lip a bit as the portrait continued to speak, he mentally shook off the shock from before. "I think people staring at you is probably better than them just walking past ignoring you," Darwin spoke up, glancing at the girl who the man had spoken to. "I mean, it's what you're there for, isn't it? You were painted so people would look at you. Weren't you?" That was what most paintings were for, he thought, otherwise people wouldn't go to museums and art galleries and stuff, would they?

He shuffled his feet a little as the other two students spoke, his bouncing continuing. "And I'm Dar- er, Damon." He need to make that a habit, now his family weren't around.

The old man scoffed at the young Ravenclaw. "It is just as rude to stare at someone than it is to ignore them, boy." Didn't anyone teach these kids manners anymore?!

He listened as each of them spoke their names. "Well, Samuel, Elektra, and Damon...what do you want?" He had already lost what little patience he had with the students.

Great. It called him Samuel. "I-uh-was just wondering if you could actually talk." This guy sure was grumpy.

Elektra raised her eyebrow at the stuttering boy saying his name. Was kind of odd that her got Damon from "Dar." As the impatient man's temper seemed like it wasn't going away she raised her eyebrow. "Well boys I think we can clearly say that this ild chap hasn't had a decent night's rest so why don't we let him sleep and talk to other portraits that are in a better mood. What do you say?" She said looking down at the first year boys. It wasn't like Elektra to be helping out first years, but for some reason she had changed after she had left Hogwarts for a while and came back. "I know that are plenty of portraits around here that would just love to see new faces rather than my old one." she said with a chuckle.
