Climbing the stairwells was 100 times more exhausting when one had to stretch over steps and have constant look out on the ground because of all the vines taking over the castle. It still had a certain beauty to it in Evan's mind, being the type of person who loved greenery and thought moss was one of the most pleasing décor that could be on a house. But he was starting to realize how invasive things like that really were for the trees and woodland creatures.

Which... wasn't that usually from suffocation? He paused on the six floor corridor, considering it for a moment. Trees died from strangulation from moss. Could the roots of the vines being doing the same to everything outside? Unseen under the ground?

Evan reached into his bag, pulling out his notebook in order to make note. It was something worth looking into more in the library.

Not to mention it would be a nice thought filler while he tried to forget his embarrassment over the love potion debacle on Valentine's Day. Though there was a Gryffindor he really should be seeking out instead and having a candid conversation with. Was he against the idea of a date? No, it might help him start to figure out how he felt about people. And FULLY move on from the previous... whatever it was. But he also wondered if she'd be upset with him about the fact he'd asked in such a... public way.

He was also still puzzled by what it meant that she'd said yes.
