urine trouble | Pat's Strong Confident Other Half | Pees Like a Champion Unicorn Racehorse Of all the people to bump into in a bathroom, it had to be Theodore Kinsley. Not that Alec particularly minded, it was just... well... did they get along? Were they even friends? ... Judging by their recent conversation, he was going to say no. ... He was in there for fifteen minutes? Hadn't they just come in there? Alec glanced over at Nigel before looking back at the obsessive cleaner. "We tried to help." Even looked in the other dispensers. See? Helpful they were.
As for the remark about Sherlock Holmes, the boy raised his eyebrows at the Slytherin. Sarcasm. Sarcastic Slytherin was sarcastic. "Glad you think so..." ... Pause. "... Moriarty." Or was it the Microsoft guy? ... Alec... didn't know.
He wasn't crying. The Hufflepuff tried not to laugh because... sure. This was a matter of ego, yeah? Every boy understood this. No guy wanted to admit that he'd been crying in the toilets. He was about to open his mouth to say something when...
... Nigel spoke.
The Head Boy clapped a hand over his mouth. He was REALLY going to laugh because... Nigel was right. That was a lot of soap. Halfway up his arm! Why did he need to clean all of that?
And then things went from awkward to SUPER awkward, if that was possible. "Hey... sir." Librarian sir. "Yeah, what Nigel said. Hair emergency. We were closer to this bathroom so came here and... bumped into each other." It was like a hair sense. They did all have great hair, after all. And hair emergencies were important, Kitridge would understand, right?
... Pause. "There aren't any tissues by the way." Take it from them, they had checked.
