Drawing his hand back, and placing the anpan on his lap, Jace wondered if this was Haddie’s way of...opening up to someone to be their friend? If so, then Jace is too sensitive for her. From where he came from, everyone is polite...and ever careful with the words they say. Haddie is the extreme opposite. No wonder he didn’t like her from the get-go.

Pushing himself back to the very corner of the compartment, Jace somehow felt bad for her. What if she doesn’t have many friends? Okay, definitely she does have a plethora of friends out there...but how many of them is true to her?

Blinking, Jace looked at the Ravenclaw second year who was about to leave...and considered her question. What did she ever do to him? Jace simply shrugged, and muttered the word, “Nothing.” She hadn’t been very clear with her question, and the half-Japanese boy took it in the most literal way possible.

Wishing that the train ride is over, Jace sighed as he picked up the wrapped bread from Japan and stretched out his legs on the length of the compartment seat. Wiggling his toes in his socked feet, he unwrapped the sweet bread and began to munch on it. There’s no way he’d be able to nap with a grumbling tummy anyway.

So...he was in the habit of hating people for no reason at all? That was good to know. Part of her wanted to point that out to him, and a few months ago, she probably would have. But the Hadley of today didn't really see the point of doing so. Oh, she had an inkling as to why Jace hated her long before they had even said two words to each other. The same reason Mossy and others in the Ravenclaw tower didn't like her.

The reason her shirt was meant to illustrate. She was not now, nor would she ever be, a true blue Ravenclaw. The sorting hat might have put her in that house, but it wasn't her house, and it was never going to be. And Jace and the others were like every other superficial kid she'd ever gone to school with. If you didn't fit in, didn't conform to them, you were automatically an outcast. Someone only worthy of disdain and contempt. She might be stuck in that house, with them, but that didn't mean she couldn't point out where she really belonged as much as her heart desired.

But... when did she start caring so much what Jace and the others thought? It plagued her for a second before she realized she was still in the cabin with Jace. "Okay," Hads said, giving the boy a shrug that Asher seemed to find enjoyable. "Just as long as we got that cleared up. See ya around...Batboy." Then she was gone; stepping out into the hall and walking off so quickly that if Jace had blinked it might have appeared as if she'd just vanished into thin air.
