"I-I'm sorry, Nina," he apologized, his ears prickling a little and turning into a tinge of pink. He didn't mean to. He really didn't.

He was, though, a bit confused with her response. Not particularly waiting for someone? Drewett managed a tiny crooked smile. "I hope you weren't p-planning to sit out on the entire feast." The food was always great on the first night, not that it wasn't ever good on the meals that followed. It was just different, at least for him.

"Oh...not really," he said. "Had t-to leave some treats for my owl and use the loo." But she was right about him being rather excited to be back. Drewett had been looking forward to seeing his friends. He just wasn't too excited to face whatever this term had in store for him, considering he had OWLs soon and also Hogwarts in general. Hopefully no more mutants. He didn't want to lose more clothes or professors at all.

Nina didn't think it was awkward so much as it was a mild fright. But the look on Drewett's face and his sudden, strange disposition gave way to the fact that he was feeling awkward about the ordeal. Nina couldn't help but roll her eyes in that amused, Castillo way. "Drewett! You're turning pink!" An easy laugh escaped her, already she was feeling much better about being at Hogwarts.

Um. "I wasn't going to skip," though it had, admittedly, been a thought that crossed her mind. "I'm just not sure where to sit." Seeing as the choices were now rather limited. And... There were several people she would rather avoid talking to for as long as possible. Until she had to, that is. Eventually she'd bump into Eloise and Karlin, and that's something she wouldn't be able to wiggle her way out of. But for now, she could strategize. Or at least try to.

She watched him almost studiously, an amused grin gracing her features. "Pietro," she remembered his owl, for the record. But... She didn't exactly want to visit it again, if that was alright? Once was enough and even that was way more than enough. Nina Castillo did not like animals. Even for boys. Whilst she was typically a good pretender, apparently some fears were harder to hide than others. Whoops. "How is he... doing?... Is Pietro still... with Hudson's...?" Um.

And why did she suddenly care to ask about an owl's dating life?
