The next person to come into the Great Hall was Lia and he could spot her and Tadhg entering together. He hadn't spent much time with the Slytherin, but they'd briefly met and hung out at the Treehouse by a chance meeting. He seemed like a good guy, and Dahlia seemed happy so that was really what mattered. Evan smiled back when she joined them all at the table. "Ready enough." As good as it would get with him, really. "What about you? Fun plans?"

Was a challenge of only three words kind of mean? 100%. But challenges in general were fun so he was sticking by it. He watched Lisa as she was clearly contemplating her choices, and couldn't help but give a small smirk when she gave only one word as an answer... and then got distracted. That meant he won, right?

Oh. Ash had new people she didn't know living in her house? That sounded... uncomfortable. Evan had had people he did know and love living in his house last summer and he still didn't do well with it.. so he could hardly imagine. "Hopefully you like them." Hopefully they weren't terrible people. Well... the woman anyways, a baby hadn't had time to develop the feelings to be a terrible people. But that didn't mean babies weren't hard. "If it's... a lot, you can come visit Lisa and I anytime. Our parents like visitors. Though Appa does like to start random light saber duels so." Fair warning. "Okay." It wasn't his place to pry about the therapy, he just wanted her to know the offer was available if she needed. After this term, his opinion of Healers and Therapists and the profession was very low and he himself would only trust an opinion from his Eomma. But if she already had good recommendations than that worked too.

Evan turned his attention to the speech, his smile brightening a bit at the congratulations to House Ravenclaw for their win. He was proud that they had been able to rake in the win for Schmoe. It was a nice send off, no matter how upset he might have been that it was in fact a send off. Schmoe was a good teacher, not perfect, but he was human and he had clearly done his best for them. That was all Evan needed to know he was the best of eggs. He'd be sorely missed.

But now... food! As it appeared, the third year... well, soon to be fourth, eagerly tucked into what was in front of him, piling his plate and digging in. But he paused when his sister started to talk again and turned his attention to her. Apparently he had not won, because she did in fact remember the challenge and gave three answers. "Good choices. Extra points for alliteration with your answer too."

What a Ravenclaw. Proud brother.
