He seemed sincere, but one could never tell with a Slytherin, especially a Slytherin named Cutty Mordaunt. "Hmm," was all she said at first. It was a comment of acknowledgment but said because she was still thinking things over in her mind. "Well, good, because underestimating can leave you unaware." Unaware of exactly how good another person could be, that is.
"No, it doesn't bother me. I just can't let it pass without saying something is all," she said. But this was a pointless conversation right now. "We shouldn't even be discussing this. Lets get you to the Hospital Wing. I'm in no mood to beg you, so if you put up a fight, I'm warning you now that you'll be taking yourself to the Hospital Wing."
Then she followed that up with a sort of smile, because comments like that one was just how Sophie rolled.
"
Yeah. That too." He concurred with her statement about being left unaware as if it hadn't occurred to him moments ago.
She couldn't let it pass without saying something. That was actually better than what Cutty initially thought she'd say. Sophie Newell was an interesting little girl. One whose recently made statement he was going to test by continuing to call her Loov. If it was really just F.Y.I. it wouldn't bother her, right? Not that she didn't already make his point clear about having no original name that was hers and hers alone when she looked upon hearing the shared surname.
The friendly thing to do would be to try and think of a nickname for her. One that she did find acceptable. He considered this too. He'd see which was worth more to him.
He stood up and a sigh escaped from the physical effort, though he tried to play it off as if he were merely done with the conversation. "
Okay." He said agreeing that they should go over to the Hospital Wing.
