He wheeled around, brushing his dark hair out of his eyes, to find Cynthia standing there.

"Hello, Cynthia," he said, smiling warmly at the librarian. "I'm fine; thank you for asking." Still wracked with guilt over his failure to protect the students from Peeves, still fearful for his own life, but otherwise fine. She hadn't seen his injuries, had she? He self-consciously tugged at the collar of his sweater, trying to hide the ring around his neck left when Peeves had grabbed him, just in case.

"I can't seem to decide what kind of candy to buy!" he said, shaking his head. Not that it mattered much... it wasn't as if he was going to be the one eating it! Still he wanted to pick something that the students would enjoy. "Any ideas?"

Cynthia focused her eyes on his face, feeling a bit guilty for scanning him. She nodded slowly at his answer. Fine didn't seem to be an accurate answer judging by his body language. But the librarian wasn't planning on pushing the subject. They weren't that close nor did she know what she'd do if she was given more information.

It wasn't like she could do much.

She turned her attention back to the candy on the shelves. Her eyes scanned the boxes and variety in the aisle they were on. "I'm partial to sugar quills myself." she said picking up some for herself. "What type do you prefer? Chocolates? Chewy? Fruity?" There really was a lot of options. It was hard to suggest things with nowhere to start.
