One more thing to add to that list:

4. Benny was SHOUTING.

O_O

Cue a very confused Hufflepuff bestie. This was not Benjamin Finnigan Atreyu aka Benny the Dragon. And by the look of that shy face, Benny was confused too. Why? His name is Benny. Sir? SIR? Adi stared some more. "My name is not Sir,'' he pointed out as he regarded his friend. "Why are you so suddenly obsessed with tea?''

Adi did not budge from his spot. He refused to. Not until he figured out what was going on. ''I will most certainly not move down.'' He was only a little distracted from this strange, new Benny when AJ joined them. "Hey, AJ.'' He returned the hand squeeze but did not let go of her hand. "No you're not. Other than Benny's new behaviour.'' Pause to stare some moaaar. "He has a thing for tea apparently.''

And back to regarding the other boy and trying to figure out what's wrong.
