But he did look a little confused at that 'why?', and blinked a few times before answering.
"Because I like to make new friends?" Kevin's response had not been one that Toby had at all anticipated. He always took it as read that everyone liked meeting new people and making friends. So this was... awkward. Still, one to think about later, yup.
Ahaha, how did he know inDEED. Finally, Toby allowed himself to look slightly amused.
"Well, we're in the same classes and stuff." He decided to leave it unsaid that Kevin here tended to make himself known in pretty much every single class, but he felt like the insinuation was plenty.
Because he liked to make new friends... Kevin snorted at that. Which was something he shouldn't have done because another three sneezes escaped. Maybe everyone was right and he should see the Healer but ugh. He hated admitting defeat and this was like that...in a way.
He looked at the kid's uniform emblem and realised that he was a Hufflepuff...of course, didn't they all wanted to make friends with everyone? So he shouldn't have been that surprised.
"Well, i DO need friends" he said awkwardly after a moment of silence. Because if he had to spend his school years friendless than that was just sad.
Kevin didn't like it when others looked amused and he had no idea what was going on. So he narrowed his eyes at him but when he told him that he knew him from classes the Gryffindor shook his head with a small laugh.
"Right..classes" he said and sat down on the floor and crossed his legs indian style as he looked up at the Hufflepuff sitting on the windowsill.
"I don't know who you are though except that you're a Hufflepuff" he demanded a name.
