Because that was the problem with trusting someone so much - you assumed they'd look after that trust. Eh. "Anyway, can we not talk about it?" Because, really, it sucked. But she was doing much better with sweeping it all under the carpet than she had been with actually dealing with it, so she was going to stay that way.
Doing it all himself..? Hmm. "Yeah, I mean... I get that." she said, pondering it for a second. "But it makes you look way cooler if other people do it for you." She wasn't for a moment suggesting he should take advantage of any of the badge... but he should take advantage of the badge. "I'm not sure people would believe you can give them detention. You'd have to be really convincing." Yup. Though he probably could be - he was a Slytherin after all.
Psh. "Theo, my best friend is Ascanius Stark. Believe me, you do not have a big head." You know, in comparison... "But if you preferred I insult you I could probably have a go at that. Y'know, if you need me to keep you all humble or something."
Theo shrugged and opened his mouth to say more words, but she soon stated that she didn't want to talk about it. Sure she didn't. This wasn't a conversation for Theo. "
'Course... sorry." He scratched the back of his head and returned his gaze to the trophies.
"
I guess... I just don't think people would do stuff for me." Maybe people that didn't know him would. Theo knew he could get a first year to do his dirty work, but people he knew didn't really take him seriously. Well, that's what he felt like anyway. He raised his eyebrows with a smirk. "
You don't think I can be convincing? Plllllllleeeeeeeease... I was born for that sort of trickery." Take one look at his puppy dog eyes and it would confirm that.
............
That was an incredibly good point.
"
Okay, not that much of a big head." Though despite being big on the inside, on the outside Ascanius did have a lovely head... just sayin'. "
Nooooo, please continue with your compliments." The big head comment was him trying to be humble actually. Hehe.
