Hogsmeade weekend was one of these things. The castle might feel spacious to others, but it was narrow and suffocating to Joseph...especially in winter when there were days where you could just not go outside because of the snow flurries and cold. This did not always deter the Slytherin from leaving, at least to the battlements or along the wooden bridge where there was some cover, but Hogsmeade weekends just hit differently.
The exposure to fresh air and an absence of stone soundboards was exactly what he needed. Here, he didn't even need to rely on his magical ear pods. They were still in, of course, to mostly discourage people from getting too close but he had none of his music playing at the moment. The streets were not even particularly crowded at the moment, most of his peers likely indoors eating or shopping, so it was comfortable walking without his usual defenses up.
Hands in his pockets, Joseph easily noticed his dormmate loitering about and felt a certain kind of pang that he may need some music to drown out. The crunch of the snow beneath his thick boots likely already alerted Fynley that someone was close by. If it wasn't the crunch of snow, then it surely was his own reflection in the window that his fellow Slytherin was currently window shopping with. And there was Joseph, hood up to cover his long silky blonde hair and hands in his pockets, and the thought of battered jumpers tickling the back of his mind.
Although Joseph wasn’t the most sociable of dormmates, Fynley had gotten used to his constant listening of music and straight-faced expression and was comfortable enough around his fellow Slytherin to call him a ‘mate’ even if the feeling wasn’t mutual. Fynn was the complete opposite in personality, he was sociable and open and willing to interact with others rather than shoving his earphones in to drown out everyone else. He was also fairly vigilant which was how he heard the sound of the snow crunching under someone’s heavy footsteps as they approached from behind him.
He glanced up at the reflection in front of him spotting the familiar hooded figure. “Hey” he offered a smile turning around to face him. “You ventured out from the Dungeon then?” he chuckled. He wasn’t sure whether they were at that stage of their friendship where they could joke with each other but that didn’t stop Fynley from attempting anyway. Their other dormmate Enzo was a little easier to communicate with although he was quite serious too in personality whereas Fynn was much more carefree.
