And really, was it stupid to sit on a cold balcony if you were toasty warm with cocoa and a sandwich? Plus, he had gloves and everything. As for the cold on his face, he rather liked it. It bit at him and reminded him that he was alive.

His face softened a bit when the younger year offered a new perspective on her earlier statement of 'you're so stupid', though she still couldn't refrain from using the word stupid again in reference to him. He cringed every time he heard That Word. "...I appreciate your new perspective. But I promise that I won't be getting sick out here." He had taken several precautions for the cold, which explained why he wasn't shivering. He didn't really mind whether she stayed or not, as long as she didn't keep calling him stupid, but he had offered a warming charm if she felt like she needed or wanted one.

It seemed that the silly boy was about as prepared as he could be but still, even she knew that it was better to avoid the cold. Either way, she wasn’t about to stand there and lecture him more than she had. “uH-HU. Thank you for the offer but I’d rather just spend the time somewhere a little warmer. I don’t know if you can tell but I’ve kind of mastered this look and y’know, just like magic, people leave me alone,” her face a mask of seriousness now despite the fact that she was indeed joking. Or was she? It certainly felt that way sometimes.

Stopping only momentarily to listen to his words, she turned again to leave, not one to force her company on someone who wanted to be left alone. “wELL, you have fun with that…” stopping because she didn’t even know balcony boys name.

“balcony boy…”

It sounded like some kind of lame superhero but it made this little second year Slytherin laugh on the inside. “i’M Sloane,” she added at the end, just so that he didn’t get any ideas about giving her a nickname. She reserved that right for a select few.
