He was keeping it? "I'm glad I chose to throw the white one then." Sure he needed it occasionally for shading but... he'd figure out how to make do. Especially since he wasn't all that good at the whole 'shading' thing to begin with. "Be my guest. I'll steal it back eventually." Or he wouldn't. The Ravenclaw couldn't help the small smile that turned wider at the tease. He had no arguments that he WAS in fact a nerd, but he was a nerd that was pretty proud of his results. O's were entirely what he'd been going for and why he'd studied for an entire year - as well as having always kept up with his normal studies. Next he would just need to do the same for his NEWTs. The comment of Reagan got a laugh before shaking his head. "I believe being transfigured into a cactus was mentioned. A few times." Thankfully nothing but his personality was yet prickly. "People just handle stress and situations differently. At least she apologizes later." And then life could move on.
Evan's time with Davet had been pretty brief, and frankly he wasn't sure he had an opinion of him. Not at the time of meeting him anyways. But seeing the fact now that talking about the boy made Jude smile, which seemed rarer and rarer lately, he was inclined to feel more warmly. Besides, Davet was muggle and despite the steps of progress Evan had made, non-magical folk and the mundane world still felt even safer to him so at least Davet hadn't inspired the same social anxiety as most strangers seemed to do. "He seemed nice. I didn't talk to him a whole lot, but you guys seem like a good match. And you seem happy so that's the best testament to him, I think."
The Ravenclaw would certainly be doing his best to not disappoint the Hufflepuff and to make it to the wedding. "What does Stas do? I don't think I ever asked." Obviously he knew about Koen's career and had listened to some tracks, but he was completely unaware on the soon to be Anders profession. "That sounds nice. To have someone to rely on in that capacity." and while Evan knew he could have had things been different, even know it was the way it was didn't make it sound less nice.
Oh, Jude knew that Evan wouldn’t aim to damage this pretty face. His reaction had been more of a reflex. But now he was in possession of a pencil that, unbeknownst to them, would be returned until next year. “You’ll need it sometime, Evan Nam, and when you do, you’ll be forced to compromise with another colour!” Ohhh, such a rebellious Ravenclaw! Laughing, Jude tilted his head. “I’ll probably keep it hidden away in my dorm surrounded by Anti-Summoning Spells.” That was a joke, of course. For the upcoming months, the pencil would actually be right in his bag and he would always be well aware of it. He watched Evan’s smile go wider and hid any sort of reaction that would give away how much he adored it. Jude enjoyed moments like these: the moments when he and Evan were goofy. These moments brought out the side of his best friend that wasn’t always there for everyone to see. As they continued on the topic of Reagan, Jude’s eyes widened slightly. “She said WHAT??! I’ll transfigure HER into a cactus if she doesn’t leave you alone.” Okay, maybe not? Because the Hufflepuff wasn’t quite sure how to do that. As if there wasn’t enough surprise on the part of his sister… “She… apologised? To you? How? What? How???” Yes, the boy was flabbergasted.
Jude knew that Evan and Davet hadn’t interacted much but that short time would have been enough for an opinion to form, he thought. Ev hit the nail on the head: Dav was nice; SUPER nice in fact. Wait… huh? What? He and Dav were a good match? Where had that come from??? Yes, Jude was happy when he was happy with Davet but… they made a good match? The fifth year was speechless, his mind a whirlwind. Was Ev implying what Jude thought he was? That Jude should be with Davet? He frowned deeply before catching himself and rearranging his expression in a neutral one. Was this Ev’s way of confirming that he was never going to be interested in Jude? And Ev was trying to push him off to date someone else? Jude severely hurt himself by thinking all of this and it was all salt to his still freshly wounded heart. “I'm not… yeah, I guess we are.” There was no point in clearing anything up. Evan probably was relieved that Jude had found someone else to be romantically involved with. This moment right here, coupled with Jude’s scrambled emotions, were the cause of him needing space from his best friend for the remainder of this part of the school year. Now he was having a difficult time focusing on his letter; thankfully, it was almost finished.
“She studies creatures at the Northwind Ranch in Norway. I suppose she and Ko bonded over dragons. He’s obsessed.” Just like he and Evan had bonded over a snake in the Menagerie a few summers ago. Jude was silent a bit and didn't bother to point out that fact they had in common with Koen as he scribbled furiously, having briefly grabbed back at his concentration. Then he wrapped it up, pausing a bit to think on the appropriate manner to sign off. In the end, he settled for ‘affectionately’. “I wouldn’t know,’’ he replied, more flatly than he realised as he took his time to neatly fold the letter. If Evan couldn’t see that Jude was that person he could always rely on in whatever capacity, couldn't see that he was the one who always understood him and had he was the one who had been here all along then the fifth year wasn’t going to fight it. “By the way, you’re more than welcome to stick around for as long as you want after the wedding. Keigh’s birthday is a few days later and her, Rea, you and I can do something together.” This Christmas, the fireside will be blazing bright but it was going to be an eventful one for this Hufflepuff. |
