SPOILER!!: Reagan Quote:

Mhm, Reagan was remaining absolutely lovely and pleasant but was also resolved to present the facts as they were. Nothing more, nothing less. "It's a personal choice, but I refuse to be in the same space as massacred cow."
Also, she was an activist. An ANIMAL activist. Despite whatever the adult in the room wished, Reagan wouldn't subject herself to that offense.
...and then she offered a small shrug.
"This is just who I am, Mr. Kitridge."...and she wasn't apologizing for it. BUT SHE WAS BEING LOVELY. No sarcasm or hurtful words. Setting his cup of chocolate down on the table aware that neither Reagan nor Daxton had touched their cups, Leo placed his hands in his lap as his eyes found Reagan's again and he spoke. "I respect your vegan diet and that you feel strongly about how animals are treated and consumed. I do not know where the house elves got the meat from that they provided us with for the event but I am certain that all the food we eat here at Hogwarts comes from animals that have been cared for with love and respect."
Picking up his chocolate again he took a sip before he continued quietly stating. "Everyone is entitled to their own views and opinions and choice of diet. I expect you to let your peers eat what they wish at meal times and not look to influence them differently." If Reagan did then Leo could potentially see a feather turn into a hen in a short time. Something he wished to avoid. Would she not attend CoMC classes then because of her strong beliefs? SPOILER!!: Daxton Quote:

In his eleven-year-old wisdom he had already come to the conclusion it was much better, much safer, to go things alone and rely on nobody. Even when his mother had accepted the Hogwarts hardship fund so that they could buy his pre-owned books and uniform and the like for school, Daxton had been furious. He did not need anyone, he did not need their help.
The nod was all the answer he saw fit to give, and so Daxton then found himself intrigued by what Rea was saying, about eating animals. He did not look at her, but instead at the fire, face expressionless while he listened in and quickly decided that she was talking total rubbish. Turning his attention to Daxton he expected to get an answer to his offer of help or an explanation to the hate statement. The only thing Leo got in response was a shake of the heard which he interpreted as a no. "I see, if you change your mind and want help or just someone to talk to, you know where to find me Daxton. You are free to go back to your dorm now and sleep." He was not going to press an 11 year old boy that had stated just minutes before that he 'hated' people in general and was clearly not interested in talking about it.
