Why... why was Bellaire looking at him like that. Something he said? Toby blinked in response to the eyeing and just sort of... went back to mapping things out. Ahem.
But OH, yes, the boys bathroom. "I've been in there, sure," he replied with a nod as he looked up from the notebook. "Can't say I've ever seen any, uh... anything like that, though. I think the girls have the advantage when it comes to interesting bathrooms." But then, Toby was forgetting about the Prefects' bathroom, which was apparently pretty swanky.
Then, within a few moments, the group almost doubled. Gabriel Banner and a Gryffindor first year had apparently joined the party. Toby grinned at them and bounced on his toes even more fervently before, and waaaaaaved. Gabriel got an extra big smile and a "Hey!" because FRIEND.
Except as soon as Bellaire mentioned that dead student, the smile was immediately wiped from Toby's face and his bouncing... well, didn't stop, but became a little more subdued. This was, uhm... awkward. Again. There were some VIBES here, vibes Toby didn't fully understand on a account of not knowing a whole lot about what had happened with Gregoire. Soooo, Toby waited until the first year had Bellaire's attention and chose that moment to give Gabriel and encouraging, supportive kind of smile. Like 'you got this, bro'. Just in case he was getting anxious or something.
Wait... house elf? COOL! Toby waaaaaved to greet the squeaky newcomer.
Toby didn't even feel offended by the little Gryffindor's outburst about boys and stuff, even though he WAS one. Yeah, nah, not taking it personally at all. He just went on adding to his notebook while they waited to get the 411 from the house elf.
