Catching himself a few seconds later, he actually turned and shot the girl a smile. Levi did not make a business of spending copious amounts of time memorizing the names of younger students, but Jessa's energy and class participation weren't easy to miss.
And she wasn't even really that young anyway.
He went back to his hot coco, or rather intended to, but then Dora showed up and common courtesy dictated he had to acknowledge her in the same manner he'd acknowledged Jessa. Or maybe more because he was actually friends with Dora. Even if the hot coco was calling his name. "Hi." Smile. "I'm great. You?"
Levi would have gone on unaware of whatever turmoil Dora may or may not have gone through had it not been for the fact that his was, strangely enough, covering one of her eyes. "Is it... Pirate Day today, Dora?" Or was this just her thing with food like last term in Charms? Levi looked down at his hot coco then at Pirate Dora and shrugged.
Anyway.
There was Tenacius. He got a wave and a smile.
Now, back to the hot coco.
Dora didn't give a hippogriff's patoot what anyone thought of her aversion to food and drink offered by the professors. She didn't, however, STARVE. The house elves had never tampered with anyone's food before. Hmph. Besides she got care packages once a week from various family and family friends. The girl never did without.
And she had also learnt that people would make their own decisions, so she didn't try to force anyone to follow her rules. BUT PEOPLE WITH RULES LIVED LONGER. Just saying.
Once she was sure her eye wasn't twitching as much she took her hand away and smiled at Levi. "
I'm fine. Yeah. Fine. And Pirate Day isn't until February. Don't be silly. " SILLY LEVI. "
Just... a stress thing." And then her eyes traveled to his mug... and gave him a LOOK. "
Pleasedon'tdrinkthat. But her last was said quickly and QUIETLY to the boy beside her before she turned her attention to...
SPOILER!!: Mel

Taking a steadying breath she looked around the room and smiled at Rosalyn – gosh, she was pretty and sooooo nice. ”Hello Professor Newton,” she smiled up at the MUCH taller and well…honestly older woman that she respect oh so much. ”Thank you for the treats Professor,” she smiled softly and looked around the room before taking a mug of hot chocolate and grabbing herself a rice crispy square and heading to find a desk.
”Hey Levi,” Mel grinned at her housemate and glanced over to the girl greeting him…she hadn’t met her yet but she’d had her in other classes, ”hey,” she smiled over to Jessa ”nice move grabbing a bit of both,” Mel grinned before spotting Dora….was she having a seizure?
”h-heeey Dora?” Mel smiled over to the older Gryffindor girl and was halfway ready to ask her if she was okay…JESSA that girl was named Jessa…right. ”congratulations on getting selected for the IMPS…and you too Levi, you guys are going to do well,” that she was sure of and with that Mel looked around and sent Tenacius a wave before sinking into a free seat….he could sit there if he wanted near her or maybe that would be saved for Hadley if people just claimed him like he were their personal property. Mel didn’t really mind, she’d already done what she had planned on doing during the first competition…and that wasn’t all that hard.
No.
It was hard.
Watching was hard…everything this term was making her fidget with nerves.
Mel looked at the fairy girl when she came in and grinned at her. "Hey Stasya..." she grinned still quite nervous about what was to come in this class and in the rest of the school year.
Mel. She got a far more relaxed smile. For now. And a sense of pride swelled in her for a moment. "
Thanks, Mel. I really appreciate that. I just hope I don't mess up and do something dumb. "
Like lose.
SPOILER!!: Jessa

Her heart did a little flutter sort of thing when Levi belatedly turned to offer her a smile and she was sure to smile back but the feeling was quickly replaced with a sinking one when Dora took the seat next to him. On impulse, Jessa lowered her gaze to her hot chocolate, not wanting the girl to yell at her for being rude--or offend her by staring too long in her direction, or anything else that was likely to set her off. It came as quite the surprise when she heard her call her name....and...ask how she was....doing....?
Huh? Jessa blinked, unsure what was really happening before quickly blurting out "Fine. I'm fine." A little too quickly. Not gonna offend this one, nope. Noooope. Didn't need that kind of intimidating hostility again. NOPE. "And you?" Peeeerfectly polite. Not even gonna mention the eye thing.
It was a welcome relief when both Stasya and Emmeline walked into the room and took seats near her. She could just focus on them and not the Gryffindor that could switch at the flip of a galleon. "Hey guys!" She returned their greetings with a grin. The grin grew wider at Melbourne's compliment. "Thanks! Figured I'd save myself a second walk to the table."
And there was Abey wandering in just before Derf did. He got a smile as he took the spot near her as well. Abey was already good people in her book, but he became better people after that science club meeting when he didn't lose it like everyone else did. And what was Derf whispering on about now?
Merlin. This girl was jumpy. All Dora had done was block her path and tell her she was being rude. Sheesh. It could have been much worse.
MUCH.
An eyebrow was quirk as she watched the girl kind of... have a fit? Was she having a fit? Merlin! "
Are you sure you're fine? You look like you're sweating. " Dora said this with a gentle tone so as not to spook the creature. Girl. She was a girl. Ravenclaws were an odd lot. She'd know since she was best friends with one and dating one.
And NO it wasn't Mason Winslow. CASPER GREENWOOD. SHE DATED CASPER! "
And I'm well. Thanks for asking. " SEE. She wasn't horrible.
Only mildly abrasive.
