Not that fire crabs were seriously dangerous or anything, but it was good to know if she was standing next to a boy that would challenge a hippogriff or something. She was small enough to be considered bird food after all. "It makes your eyes go all sparkly." she added before she could stop herself. Ugh how was is possible she could be this lame with boys? Her cousins were masters of the opposite sex. They could have a man praying for them to walk all over them in their Louboutins, and she was telling a boy his eyes were sparkly when he puffed his chest out to pick a fight with a fire crab.

There had to be a manuel for the socially inept right?

Her attention was pulled back to Richard as she wanted for him to shake her hand. Harlow stood steady as the boy eyed her up and down again. This would have been a perfect time for biology to have shown up and filled out the rest of her frame, but no such luck. She gave Richard the firmest handshake she could with her little hand. Though his hand felt like a baseball mitt to her. "Pleased to meet you Richard." she offered. She inched away from the fire crab cage a little. The thing was eyeing her and since it was bigger than her she figured it was better to not know if she was flame resistant just yet. She looked up at Richard, "Oh um well I don't spend too much time in the common room. The furniture is a little big for us pint sized Riddles." She smiled getting some of the old Riddle back.


Again the girl made him laugh. It was a kind and short one this time though as for some reason he liked the question. He stared at the fire crab a bit before moving his gaze back on the girl. ''Sometimes.'' he said ''Just to let people, or things at this case, know who is the boss.'' Yeah, that was right. He was always the boss and he was ready to show it to anyone who would challenge him about that and he would not care if they would be hurt in the progress. It was not his problem after all.

He was about to stare back at the crab to see if it was daring to make a move when Harlow made that comment about him. It kinda made him forget about the creature and what it would dare to do. Was that a compliment? If it was, it was a different one from the ones he got so far but that did not mean he would not appreciate it. Quite the opposite, he liked it. It looked like the girl was doing some progress on warming up. ''Well...i think being sparkly would look better with your pretty eyes.'' That was it and he knew he was right. He was always right, after all. ''Pleased to meet you too, Harlow.'' Oh he was. He did not know anyone else who would tell him that his eyes were sparkly anyway. It was a bit funny but felt good anyway. Compliments were good. He liked them and he knew he deserved them.

Eh...he would understand why she would not spend much time in the common room as these days ugly house elves decided to show up there which annoyed the Slytherin boy a great deal but it seems the reason for that was different for the girl. Richard chuckled. ''Really?'' he asked raising his eyebrows at her. ''Is not that waht makes furniture good though? The bigger the better. You see? All the bigger furniture are always the more expensive ones. I think you should try to enjoy it a bit.'' That was a different point of view from what she meant, of course, but it was still something to say. He would enjoy bigger furniture if it was him, to be honest. He smirked and winked at the girl again before looking up at the professor as she had started to say something.

So? It was time to wash these creatures? Wash? Like seriously? Richard eyed the creature. It looked like it could live another century without a bath but if it was what they were going to do for the rest of the class, the boy supposed he had to do it. Trying to ignore the urge to kick the cage, he opened his and took the creature out of it without waiting to walk out itself. He was not going to wait forever for a stupid creature to act. Of course, he paid extra attention that its butt was away from his face as he put it in the bucket. ''You better not make a stupid move there.'' he said to the creature as he unholstered his wand and pointed it into the bucket. ''Aguamenti''

He looked at Harlow as the water from his wand started to fill the bucket. ''You need help with anything?''
