And only a fool would pass food.

"Alright" he said and walked closer before taking a seat at the table as well. "Is the food here made by the house elves as well?" he asked as his blue eyes curiously scanned the menu card. "Woah! Macarons? I want those" he said as he looked around. Where were they?

His attention went from the macarons to the idea of cooking himself and he looked over at the small kitchen. He looked like he wanted to get up and start cooking himself for a moment but then remembered that had never cooked before. His father and sometimes his grandfather would do that all the time or they just had take out. "I want to try, but i am a hundred percent sure that this place will be a war zone after i'm done cooking" He laughed. "There's a reason i was searching for the practise room earlier" he said as he held up his third year Charms textbook "i suck at magic you see" he added with a chuckle though he did not find it funny at all. He just wanted his spells to work or when the worked they shouldn't be so powerful. A simple Aguamenti could turn in to a fire hose spray if he tried it. SIGH.

Gaston half-expected the young Ravenclaw to retreat down the hall to the practice room, but to his surprise (and relief), that didn't happen yet. He beamed as Dorian accepted his invitation for a snack. "Most of it is, yes," he replied. "The rest comes from a bakery in France. I have a friend who enjoys baking, so she sends me pastries every couple of days." He realized how that probably sounded and quickly added, "Not to worry - she uses plenty of spells to keep everything fresh."

He chuckled to himself a little. "Good choice! Macarons it is!" he said. He aimed his wand at a pink box on the counter, and it flew across the room into his waiting hands. "Freshly made this morning..." He opened the box, revealing several neat rows of colorful cookies. "Pick your favorite color."

Gaston's eyes followed Dorian's to the kitchen area, but his expression darkened at what the boy said next. "Whatever happens, I'm sure we could fix it," he said with an encouraging smile. "Don't let fear stop you from trying something new. We could start out with something simple..." His face fell; it broke his heart to see a student so down on himself! "You don't suck at magic! You're still learning, and mistakes are just a part of the learning process. After all, if we got every spell right on the first try, I'd be out of a job!" He chuckled sheepishly. "All you need is a little practice." That and some confidence, but who was he to talk bout that?
