A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.
Feeling the soft jab in his side, Kevin turned his head to Zander and grinned when he deciphered his look. He just grinned, a bit longer at him than one usually would as if he was up to something but then turned his attention to their Head of House. Of course, he hadn't had anything planned to humilate the older Gryffindor but letting him THINK he had...oh he would have done very well in Slytherin. "Who is Burbage?" he asked. "I've heard that name before..." where had that been? The boy thought for a moment as he looked around the messy room as if for clues. "Oh! They mentioned that name during a meeting in the staff room...i was there..no one paid attention to me cause you know...still a kid" he rolled his eyes as he remembered the people who had aged dramatically had to come to the room for a meeting. And when he had asked who that Burbage had been, he was ignored.Which was SO SAD.
He was glad that Bentley wasn't mad at them. Because out of all the Professors, she was the only one who actually gave him a chance. Oh and Botros...he thought.. at least he hadn't had any trouble with him yet. He watched her move to on one the beds and sat down. Kevin glanced towards Zander, wondering if it was his bed or not. "I think so..." he answered. It wasn't like he knew every card by heart. He just knew that he hadn't had that one yet. Listening to her question, the boy blushed. "Well, of course i thought about that, i'm not stupid" he said and had to refrain from rolling his eyes. This was Bentley, his Head of House. No way he was going to be THAT rude to her and make his own life at school miserable. "But, i haven't perfected it yet" the last time he had tried to summon a goblet at the great hall he accidentally pulled half the table with him, causing everything to fall over. "Sometimes it's like this thing has a mind on its own" he said and waved his wand. "Phoenix feather, my mom says they're powerful but difficult to handle...kinda like me" he grinned.
Alright, cleaning. "You go make the beds then i'll clean up the feathers" he ORDERED Zander. What? He liked being in charge! But if he wanted to do something else then fine with him...as long as he kept away from the feathers.
