Maybe why the only friends he did have transferred and left him here on his own.

"You could if that's what you wanted to be." He would respectfully refer to her as whatever she preferred. Though it still didn't seem like she took her last name as something good when people called her it.

Hearing her next words did surprise Evan, even causing him to glance over with an eyebrow raised before looking down at his watch. "Well, seems we've been chatting for a few minutes and I still don't dislike you. Maybe you're just selling yourself short?" But Ash it would be then for now. And he'd keep in mind to make sure, that he didn't actually ever call her Fox in the future because... well it seemed like it made her sad.

"She is the nicest. She takes after our eldest brother, Noah. Did you know him? He was a Gryffindor here last term too. Graduated now."
"I'll just be Ash then, unless and until you decide to not like me anymore." Because if he hated her then he couldn't use the nickname. Rules are rules. Something she never thought she'd think. "Wait until I do something brave or explode something. Or... I don't know." He'd be surprised at how easy it was to dislike her then, when she was risking her life to get a sentence out, or when she was breaking both friendships(hi Sammy, Hi Cambridge, Hi James) and objects(haha mirrors). Maybe it would be easy then. "Hoping that won't happen. Fingers crossed." She crossed her fingers for good luck. Worth a shot.

"I know Noah. I drew him once, because his "Special Friend" -Lisa's words, not mine- Aboli asked me to. It helped me come up with my idea to draw from memory every person who'd let me. Just faces and stuff. A collection." She wanted to get the images of the people here down on paper, so that she could show that they were humans. Every pureblood, muggle, muggle-born, half-blood, squib and person who was okay with muggles was a human. Even the bad ones.
