SO. ABEY WAS FEELING A LOT OF THINGS RIGHT NOW.

Not with his hands, with his emotions actually, because AB was what everyone used to call his grandfather. Or, well, people not related to him, like Mister Sherman Minister Man, and now HE was getting called it too. Which........ made sense, because same name and all. BUT STILL. FEEEEEEEELING THIIIIIIIINGS.

Mainly good things, though, which was why he grinned brightly at Simon, and waited to hear what was going on in that bag of his. Which... never really got explained, but Abey watched Simon quite curiously as he proceeded to... smell something. Really, he wasn't very surprised, because this was just who Simon WAS. Abey recalled the night of the sorting, and his GREAT BIG DRAMATIC ANXIETY, and how Simon had given him some sort of lavender smelling thing to help him feel calmer. It... hadn't helped, but then that had been a very EXTREME sort of day, actually.

"Hi Si!" he replied, and was about to remark on how funny it was that that rhymed, and then ask what Simon had been doing, when a new sound reached his ears.

...

......

.........

He looked at Simon, quite still and silent for a moment, with the mention of dangerous creatures ringing in his ears. Thoughts of Ru and Junebug shot to the forefront of his mind. "Did... you hear that too?" Stupid question. Of course he had, but... maybe it was worth checking?

... How close were they to the portal again? Abey glanced nervously towards the ceiling.
Did he say something he should not have? Simon looked up at Abey with a quizzical expression slapped on his face. Was it because he called him Ab? Was that a big No-No?! ALL HE WANTED WAS TO BE COOL LIKE YOU ABEY!
Nicknaming friends and the such.

OH NO WAIT AB WAS SMILING!

YES!

YESYESYEYSYESYESYES! Simon did well in the nicknaming department!

Rather than putting the bottle back into his handbag Simon stuffed it into his front jeans pocket.

What should he talk about, should he ask Abey if he wanted to hang out somewhere? Maybe see if he wanted to tag along to the Owlery?

The Badger's mouth opened only slightly when he too heard The Booming voice of their Headmistress come out of no where. The opened mouth to speak words to his friend just gaped wider open in utter shock of the situation. "I did." Simon responded still sitting on the floor, not wanting to exert himself anymore than he already has, but will be forced to none-the-less.
He looked down the Hall that Abey come from. "Did you pass an Older Ravenclaw on your way up here?" Maybe they can catch up to him and use him as a shield to stay safe from the Monster.
