Daxton was, of course(?), still following, but taking no pains to keep up with Hirsch's purposeful stride. He had walked all the way there in his own steady pace, keeping Hirsch more or less in his sights, arriving at the Stone Gargoyle perhaps five or six paces behind.
Strange. Three years (and a little extra) in this school, and Daxton had never once been called to this office. Given all the trouble he had managed to find himself in, that seemed a strange feat. In fact, he had expected that this meeting - and he was quite certain what would be happening today - to have come much sooner. He found it curious, in the most detached way.
Once the spiral staircase appeared, Daxton again followed Hirsch, waiting for a moment or two so that he could maintain a slight distance between them both. At the top of the stairs, he stood by, again a few steps from Hirsch, wanting nothing more in that moment to maintain that distance. He looked very pointedly away from him, staring at the door instead, and the blank and completely impassive look on his face may well have made Daxton look bored, and utterly unconcerned.
He was tired.
