West had been like that a lot lately, so he immediately put it down to Alice.
Theo didn't question it, of course.

But he didn't complain so it was all good.
Just what she thought herself. "Yeah, I can understand that." Because she wasn't THAT excited. Except maybe for her coming up sleepover. But other than that she had nothing planned. At least last year she wanted to intern, this year she didn't.
And there were those OWLs results coming up. Eww. Not cool.
"Yup, pretty nice." she answered him with a thumb-up of her hand. "Got rid of OWLs, eh?" Her voice implied so much stocked stress released at that statement. Relief, too. And It always felt like she and her friends were always looking out for each other even if they weren't saying it out loud. And as if on cue, West came in and sat with them. It only made sense that they three sat together on the way home.
"Heey," she greeted back the tallest snake of all. Between the two of them she really was the dwarf. As if instinctively, she found herself pushing up in her seat. Not that it made any difference.
Same as the feast, the look on West wasn't one that could be cheerful. She had assumed it was because of everyone was leaving and all. Uncluding Lafay's news which was shocking. But now she come to think there was something bigger. Her eyes flickered to Theo and he had that look on his face and he didn't ask what was troubling West meaning he knew or knew it was delicate. So she followed Theo's steps in that, he'd know. 'Cause terror twins.
"You guys thinking of interning this summer?" she casually asked conversationaly. A norma sort of convo would be good, yeah?
Y'know the one thing that could make a West smile when he was meh was his best buddy in the whole world? So Theo's 'hey' got a genuine smile. A tired one, but hey, progress.
Shrug though. What WAS up?
"The usual." And really that was true. There was ALWAYS some kind of Alice related drama for him right? And Theo was a really good mate not to be all 'I told you so' every time too.
He gave Cassia a quick wink and slouched in his seat with that air that only the tall could pull off convincingly.
"I am interning at QQS this summer." Paaaause. "And I've got Quidditch on most weekends, and practices twice a week." Paaaaaause again. "And me and Ascanius and Vesper and Nigel are gonna have band practice on Wednesdays. You guys could come hang out with us some time if you were keen to listen and stuff. And I can get tickets to some of my games as well." He looked at Theo. "And you should come to the open tryouts. The week after next."
See at least he had a lot of things to keep himself busy.
