Hmmm... endless supply of energy. Maybe it could be done?

Tobias was really trying to be hopeful that his mood would start to pick up. He had a theory that maybe he was just a bit homesick again and the added stress of the term had exacerbated it. So... he'd be fine. Soon. Yeah.

"I'll try," he said to Oakey as he nodded. "Really, I will." He NEEDED energy anyway, if he was going to start training to get into shape for going pro. He could DEFINITELY give Ella a run for her sickles, so long as that energy returned. Ehehehe.

"You should write too. I mean, if you don't get to visit... you know?"

=====

SPOILER!!: Aleeeeeeeeeeeeeec

Video games... pizza... Tobias' eyes went wide. He had NEVER enjoyed both of those together before. His parents had always been too busy to play games, and Toby's friends at his old school hadn't really liked video games or weren't allowed pizza ~~or weren't allowed to hang out at his house on account of Toby finding himself in trouble a lot~~. So that offer was AWESOME. Toby realised he was sitting with his mouth agape and quickly rectified that by replying to Alec.

"Sure! I mean, my family would have to say yeah, too. But I'd love that. And maybe you could come visit me in Brighton?" There was a pier and the rides or they could play more video games at his grandfather's house.

Suddenly the summer didn't seem like it would be so lonely after all.

Smiling slight, Tobias had Bobo salute Alec right back.

=====

SPOILER!!: Minnieeeeeeeeeee

Hearing Minerva's voice properly for the first time in what seemed like ages, Tobias looked around. He visible kind of winced when he saw her having a go at the Slytherin girl. Toby couldn't remember if the other girl had apologised or not, but he was sort of wondering if maybe it was such a good idea to make a scene. Tobias could have helped get back at the girl all sneaky... maybe...

Plus he was wary of there being any trouble, but he and Forrest were reasonably small, so if a staff member was attracted to the commotion he could just tug his fellow first year under the table with him and out of sight. Sometimes hiding was a very good idea.

With that back up plan in his mind, Tobias decided to wait and see what happened.

SPOILER!!: Forrest and Ella :3

Forrest grinned back at Tobias, the first genuine grin of the night, and nodded. "It's--" comforting, "--cool that we got each other's backs." Forrest had friends before in his previous schools, but Tobias was by far the coolest. He lifted his spirits just like that, and Forrest showed genuine interest in Bobo the monkey.

"Nice to meet you Bobo mate," he greeted the monkey as he waved at him. It was a great idea, actually. Sure it was a toy and couldn't really help anything, but it was better than nothing. Forrest wondered whether Tobias would know about football, but before he could bring out his key chain, he was introduced to Ella's elephant.

"What's elephant's name?" So that he could greet him too. Ella had taught him elephants were serious animals, and he was going to treat him respectfully.

"Sure," he said in response to Tobias' request/question, but he turned to Ella and...

[...]

He giggled once, twice, and soon enough he was giggling crazily. What was his inspiration? How did he learn to dance so... so... delightfully? Overcome with amusement, Forrest even clapped once and looked at Tobias. He'd all forgotten about his request/question though, of course.

"Such a feast, eh?" And it had just begun.

She was also glad to see Wade clean up the mess that was Forrest’s robes. The soon-to-be sixth year watched on as her keeper introduced Bobo and elephant to the other first year, holding up elephant when his name came up. She met Tobias’ gaze and smiled kindly, as if saying ‘good job’ for helping out a friend like that. Captain was proud of him. “I’m glad you did. The more the merrier.” And as for Forrest’s question, Ella smiled. “Just ‘Elephant’. The name suits him, y’know?” Mini!beam. “You okay, Forrest?” Seriously. Is there anything she could do or?

Yes. They had each other's backs, for sure. Forrest might know that Tobias was fiercely loyal, or maybe he was starting to work it out. That was one of the ways Tobias' true Hufflepuff colours shone through.

There were a lot of people talking to Forrest, and that made Tobias happy a bit because he could see that his friends had friends which was always a good thing because having friends was really useful, you know? He just liked knowing that other people were happy.

When Forrest's attention was back on him, Tobias hitched the smile back onto his face. It wasn't even that difficult. The feast, yeah. "Definitely," he grinned back to his fellow first year. He left it unsaid that it would be a brilliant feast if they had good food and avoided dementor attacks.

Tobias let Ella answer the question about Elephant. He was still not all that talkative because of the whole energy thing but he was kind of saving all his talking energy for when it was his turn. Maybe soon he'd go back to being able to natter away for hours on end. He did give a grin when she said she was glad he'd brought Forrest over though. You know, 'cause Toby did good and all that.

He remained quiet for a moment. Because Ella was asking Forrest a question after all. He just kind of picked up both Bobo and Elephant and focused on looking at them both. After a little while doing this, he looked up at Forrest again.

"I was wondering if you wanted to hang out this summer? Maybe you could visit me? Or we could hang out in Diagon Alley when you get your school things, if you're, like, already busy over summer." It was just a suggestion, but for some reason Tobias was instantly terrified of the answer. If Forrest was busy, that was fair enough, but if it was a total no because he didn't want to, then how crushing would that be?

The usually confident boy looked back to the stuffed animals in his hands.

When was this feeling going to go away? It had lifted somewhat, but parts of it, like this strange lack of his usual confidence, still lingered.

=====

SPOILER!!: Nessie ;_____;

Before he realised what Ness was talking about, Tobias found himself looking down at his chest to where she was pointing. Then it clicked. Heart. Figuratively. Right.

He looked back up at her and hesitated a second before nodding.

"You better," he said, his miserable expression kind of quirking into a smile. And if she didn't write he'd just owl her first. Ten times. All at once.

The Hufflepuff remained silent for another moment or two before he spoke again. "I'll miss you."

That is, if that store hadn't shut down over the past year. "And pizza!" he added in as an afterthought. How could you forget pizza with video games? "I live in Surrey which... isn't too far from London so... I could come and meet you somewhere?" Wait, where did Tobias live? Alec smiled back at the younger Hufflepuff and even gave his, Tobias's, monkey a two finger salute. ... Yeah... now he really wanted his puppy toy. Video games... pizza... Tobias' eyes went wide.

She knew it was the final night there, but there was always work that could be done after the feast before the train and come on student garden Ethan would be all over that whether it was time to leave or not.. She tapped her foot and pulled her wand. Maybe the girl might think Minerva was going to hex her, because the mood Min was in at the moment she might have. She could easily hex the second year and be done with it the little brat, but she wasn't going to right now. No she would give the girl a chance to apologize and get the hell away from the puff table. Pointing her wand at Forrest she non verbally cleaned the drink up. Turning back to Sonea still holding her wand she tapped her foot. Let's go child any day now with that apology...

Anything to make that lip turn it's direction into a smile. But what could she do? Fail NEWTs? ...Heck no. Those words didn't exactly help her feelings, but she did her best to keep her face as expressionless as possible. She didn't want to upset him anymore then she felt she already was. "I'll be staying here." She pointed to his heart. It was what she always told people when others had to leave...maybe leave to heaven which was not where she was going yet but you know it could apply now too. "I'll owl you too, kiddo." Nods.
