"Fresh air is a good idea. Taking a break from the library is probably the best thing you could have done for your studying." Sometimes the brain just couldn't take anymore in. Another bite of shepherds pie went into his mouth as he decided to not further comment on the lack of observation, it was easy to miss something when your mind was so occupied. "How are your ... 'powers' faring? Seems like a lot of the students are pretty off put with all of the quirks." Himself included. Though perhaps he wouldn't have minded as much if it were something that did not require having the powers of an animagus, without any of the perk of control.
He was also worried about the fact that the OWL exams were still a few months away. Especially since he had been experiencing a lot of anxiety lately. But he pretended to be fine as he took another sip of his butterbeer, grateful that Evan had chosen to overlook his minor blunder.
"I agree" He nodded and placed his glass on the table.
"I've been having headaches lately, so I thought a short break would be ideal." But only for half a day. He was already eager to return to the library.
"Oh, thank you for the study guides by the way. They actually helped me a lot" he said.
"I'll give them back this Saturday, i want to copy some extra things for V that i think will be helpful for her potions exam"
....Not that he cared or anything
"How's the pie?" He had been eyeing the Shepherd's pie earlier but had decided on the strawberry shortcake instead because he had been in the mood for something sweet.
Daniel leaned back in his chair and looked at the menu card again after finishing his cake. He was thinking about getting something else before he looked up at the Ravenclaw.
"I actually like my 'quirk,'" he said as he decided to stop at Honeydukes later instead.
"I mean, I’m basically Spiderman” he shrugged.
” But lately, my powers have gotten out of hand, and things just stick to me at random"
He had ripped up one of the library books by accident once because it stuck to his hands. Of course, he took care of that with a simple Reparo but he could see why that was annoying.
"I heard you change into an animal" he grinned before yawning with his hand in front of his mouth.
"What was it again? A sheep?" he snorted.
