SPOILER!!: Forrest

It was rude to smile at others' failures, but he couldn't hold back a hint of smile.

"Did you--" he gulped as his face grew paler with what he was going to ask. He had already decided against asking it to a professor since they were bound to lie about it not to hurt him, but he trusted Tobias to be honest. He wasn't sure whether he wanted to hear the response, but it was a now-or-never kind of situation, and on a whim he asked it at last.

"Arepurebloodsbetterthanmudbloods?" He took a deep breath. Had it just got colder here? "A--at m--magic, I mean." His eyes were the size of the moon and he held his breath.

Oh so he could watch the game. Forrest vacillated whether he should admit he spent half of his time looking at Alice and the other half examining the stands, but that would be admitting he was a coward, so... there was just one thing that had been bugging him ever since he learnt the rules.

"Aren't you afraid of bludgers?" Being the bluntest at asking stuff, yeah. And he did some more rolling not to stare and look like a chicken about it. He shivered visibly though upon remembering Ella's state when a bludger hit her. Nearly fell off her broom... And it was just an enchanted stick! What happened if it ran out of charm, hmm? Quidditch. He'd rather die than play it, because it would kill him anyways.

He shrugged. "Yeah, I suppose." What did HE know about snowmans? It was Tobias' specialty. He looked at his balls size and then eyed his. It was smaller than it, but he'd stopped rolling already because he'd seen it in cartoons that it got smaller to the top. Right?

Hopefully.

Botros? He shrugged. "He didn't tell us his name." He had been far too busy punishing Sonea. Hehe.

Legomancy. Forrest giggled. "Yes, I know." Who didn't? "Reckon it's too hard? I mean, it'd be cool to just stare in the eye and know it all." Surely when he was like in fifth class or something he would manage to do it?

Okay, yes. It seemed like they agreed on this spot for the snowman. That was good. Tobias crouched down on the ground at the base of the snowman and started packing snow in so that it wouldn't roll away or fall over once they started piling the other big snowballs on top of it.

Oh wait, bludgers. Yep. Still a conversation going.

"Well, I kinda wonder what it's like to get hit by one, but it doesn't look very fun," Tobias replied cheerfully. Yep, those bludgers hits really looked like they sucked... but he was still curious. "I'm not too scared of them. I think the team's got my back. They seem quite protective." It was awesome! Like having loads of brothers and sisters. He wondered how they'd react if a beater ever hit a bludger towards him, and held back a giggle. "And if I do get hit, we go to a magic school so I'd be fixed super quickly anyway, after all."

The thing about Tobias was that he always looked for the positive side to a situation. Sometimes that wasn't always the healthiest way of dealing with things, as this particular Hufflepuff outright ignored any negative feelings or outcomes. YUP.

Ahhh, Tobias would love to learn Legomancy. "I reckon it is super difficult, but I don't think it's too hard. Like... it's not impossible." Well, maybe for some people? Like, the majority of people probably had the potential to learn it. "I'd love to be able to do it... but I don't reckon I've got the focus that you'd need. Are you thinking of trying it?" That'd be awesome! Having a friend that could read minds, WOW.

Tobias had just finished packing the snow in around the base of the snowman and was pretty confident that it was quite stable. He stood back up and brushed the snow off his gloves before turning to Forrest... and that's when he heard him.

It took Tobias a moment or two to register what Forrest had said, because he kind of had to decode it in his brain first, it had been said so fast. He frowned slightly. Mudblood? Why is he saying that word? Because oh yes, Tobias knew what that word meant. It was one of the things his grandfather had told him never to repeat (in case he heard someone say it at school). It was incredibly rude, and Tobias agreed. But Forrest was muggleborn, Tobias remembered that... so... something wasn't quite right.

Still frowning, Tobias spoke. "Has someone call-"

Then he cut himself off. No, that wasn't answering the question. Forrest had asked something and so Tobias was going to answer. He softened his expression from the frown and looked thoughtfully at the treehouse again before looking back at Forrest, having thought of the perfect response.

"Do you eat chocolate frogs? That come with the cards?"

Bear with him, this is actually going somewhere.
