"Very well, Mr. Weasley. Have it your way." He was assuming that this little talk between them was an argument? It was merely a suggestion! Kingston, as the oldest, had suggested to Mr. Weasley that he would be nice to little first years such as Mr. Kururugi. It seems as though the younger boy took his suggestion as an insult.
Snort. People and their bloody assumption.
The seventh year then turned his attention back to Mr. Kururugi, a sweet smile creeping on his lips. "Let me teach you a lesson, my dear boy. People should be nice no matter who they are speaking to. Even if it maybe the person they hate most. A person must keep his composure and act as the better man." Kingston informed the small boy, grinning. If Kingston had a chance to teach this little first year some manners, then he wouldn't mind the young boy tagging along through his last year. It would be quite interesting. Quote:

Daphne shook her head sternly. "There was never an argument not to mention a fight," she corrected, wondering how some could forget to be careful of their words they chose when speaking. Sure, there was a difference of opinions happening but it was hardly an argument. "Jason is just simply misunderstanding a lot of us."
Reaching up, she patted Raiden's hand softly with a smile. "It's okay Rai," she whispered, turning her head slightly hoping to spot either Davis, her butler, or a wicked familiar face that could save her from so many unpleasant topics. Hopefully her time at Hogwarts wouldn't be like this all the time. "By the way," interrupted the 12 year old well aware that she had been already introduced. "My name is Daphne Hopton. Nice to meet you." Quote:

"Sorry Barry, I am just upset you did not look at both sides as usual" Jason said." Thanks for calling me mean/ nasty Gwen" Jason told her. " Do you know what is happenning- I do not think so and yet when I say hello to you. tell you that you are one of the good Quidditch players on the team, you decide not to say anything nice to me" Jason told her. "Anna, I really, really neeed to talk to you and of course Cale by himself" Jason tells her. " This is really getting out of hands and if they want to hurt my feelings, everyone did- I understand Slytherins being themselves because they do not like Gryffindors at times. I am not happy with Gryffindors going against me, I do not want any part of this house" Jason said to Anna and Cale. " Look, I have plenty of history at HogWarts through my family, not mention they are alumni but they would not stand for our family or Gryffindor housemates act bad towards each other. Quote:

Come on, this was getting ridiculous!
"Alright, enough, ALL OF YOU!" he exclaimed, standing up and glaring down at everyone in the general area. "From what I've just witnessed within the past few minutes, I have to say I'm completely apalled. It's just plain rude to gossip about people in front of their faces, and all this arguing here is pointless and isn't getting anyone anywhere, it's just making the situation worse. If you've come here just to cause drama you can go back to your own tables," he addressed the people who were not Gryffindors. "And for those of you stuck at this table here--one more rude or sarcastic comment out of any of you and I'm getting a professor faster than you can blink." he told them. Quote:

She wasn't as refined herself. Just an average middle-class girl. Schooled on state funds. Her brother probably knew many people like Kingston now, seeing as he went to Cambridge. Without her. Whenever he came back he'd seemed slightly different. Sometimes she felt like he kept playing musical chairs with all of the people who looked like him but were very different personality-wise. She frowned.
Raiden felt a sudden bubble of sadness in his chest as Kingston Wendleworth spoke again. Had he been arguing? If he had... he felt horrible. He didn't want to argue with the older boy, but... the boy had been mean and made Daphne Hopton upset. He didn't like when his friends were upset.
"Was... was I being mean?" Raiden asked quietly as Kingston spoke to him again. "I didn't even realize. I didn't mean to... I'm sorry. I was just unhappy because of how he was treating Daphne Hopton and Bree..."
His hand rubbed the back of his neck and he bit his lip anxiously. Raiden Kururugi... mean? He didn't want anyone to think of him as mean. If people thought he was rude, or mean, or anything like that... they wouldn't want to be friends! And Raiden so wanted to be friends with everyone he met. But... this older guy didn't seem to want to be friends. And maybe he was wrong, but Raiden didn't really feel the urge to be friends with him, either. Treating people with respect wasn't something that was limited to those you already knew, and the way he'd treated Daphne Hopton and the rest of them was just plain wrong.
He looked then at Daphne Hopton, who had patted his hand and smiled slightly at him. "You're okay, Daphne Hopton?" he murmured, still concerned no matter what she could say. "You're sure?"
And then the Jason person was off again, reprimanding Barry, the boy who Raiden had just met, and another person named Gwen. Raiden bit his lip again in confusion. Jason was saying that if Barry didn't take his side, then they'd no longer be family? Was it possible to do that? But he didn't interfere; Kingston Wendleworth had told him not to start an argument. He didn't want to go against Kingston Wendleworth, after all... but Jason was being very mean to more people now... and what was that about Slytherins? Being themselves because they didn't like Gryffindors?! But... Raiden looked at Daphne Hopton, then at Anna, and Bree, and Cale, who was looking very, very unhappy... and Astrid too, was a Gryffindor. He liked them... He didn't understand what the boy was saying.
"Daphne Hopton," he whispered, keeping his voice very, very low. "You're a Gryffindor, right? And Bree is too... and most everyone around, except for me, and Kingston Wendleworth..."
He trailed off. The guy had heard him earlier from farther away, and again, Raiden didn't want to start arguments... and besides, Cale was yelling now. Raiden flinched at the unnatural sound of Cale's shouting. It didn't seem like he did it much, it just didn't sound right for Cale's voice to be so... loud. He was upset with them all, it seemed... and he said something about them going to their own tables? Raiden was genuinely unhappy now. He'd not only displeased Kingston Wendleworth, but Cale, too.
"Maybe.. maybe I should go back to the Slytherin Table," Raiden mumbled, his lips drawing themselves down at the corners. "I didn't want to make Kingston Wendlworth and Cale displeased... Or Anna, or Daphne Hopton..." He looked at Bree, who had just supplied her last name to him as well, and tried to smile. "It's very nice to have met you, Bree Finchley." He looked at Astrid, and Barry. "You too, Astrid and Barry..."
He stood awkwardly for a moment, trying to figure out a way to escape this place without stepping on or running into anyone. There were too many people here anyway, and if he was just here adding to the anger and starting arguments, well... no one would miss him. If only he could find a way around all these people... |
