Paul felt the presence of some students join him. He continued to drink his coffee and look at the hourglasses. And then he chuckled at the girl's words. He looked over at Skylar, seemingly in a cheerful enough mood. "Why blame them for OUR points, m'dear?" he asked curiously. "Gryffindor is dominating. We clearly need to to do some sabotage--" Paul Myers was COMPLETELY kidding here....right...ALL JOKES. NOT AT ALL SERIOUS. NOPE. NO INTENTIONS TO SABOTAGE THE LIONS. None at ALL.

Speaking of lions...

They were joined by a first year, Emmeline, as well. "Helllllllo, dear!" he said, not at all suspiciously so basically very suspiciously. He winked at Skylar. "What are you girls up to today? Not enjoying the blistering cold weather outside, then?" Because who didn't want to hang outside in weather that could potentially turn your skin blue? Sounded like some true fun right there.
