So. She reached the library and.... food was not allowed in??? With a hard bummed out face, the Gryffindor tucked their sandwiches in her backpack and walked further in looking for Daxie. It wasn't hard finding him, he stood out with the sitting-on-the-table-and-gazing-up-into-open-space. "Daxton!" She greeted happily, throwing her backpack next to his and pushing herself up on the table next to him. "Hi. Sorry I'm late, I stopped by the great hall, brought us two sandwiches..." She looked around... maybe they could eat them undetected?

Daxton did not know if it was a girl thing, or a Gryffindor thing, but some people were alarmingly chipper. It definitely was not a first year thing, as he had been a first year and never been so exuberant. There was a chance it was merely a Genny Tate thing, except that that did not account for people like Char, and also that Genny Tate was not always quite so cheerful; he had a particular memory of the day he insulted Quidditch to disprove that theory. The point was, she was generally so enthusiastic - about everything - that every time they encountered each other he needed to brace himself for the overwhelming little... whirlwind. It was a Gryffindor thing, almost certainly, but perhaps he ought to do some research into the matter... not just into chipperness and sheer volume, but the whole enigma of human personality variation.

The mention of the sandwiches brought about a scrunching of the nose from Daxton as he was drawn from his reverie, and nothing more. No other recognition, no 'thanks but no thanks' (but when had he ever said something like 'thank you'?), nothing. What he did do, was pick up his notebook from the other side of him, and hold it up for Genny to read.

'I have a new challenge for you, if you think you are up to it.'

Daxton was not one for small talk or pleasantries; he tended to get straight to the point. The message he was showing Genny Tate was the result of much thought, particularly in the way he had chosen his words. Despite the fact he was dealing with a first year, and a Gryffindor at that, he still needed to be careful.
