Lovely™ | Captain Hurted | Ariana's Bane | Resident Antagonist | Unparalleled Delight Chewing hard on his thumb, Jake's eyes darted around the office, trying to find some kind of distraction. Usually, he was pretty good at that, but for some reason he was managing to fail epically. Shaking his head 'no', Jake then managed to contradict himself as he opened his mouth to respond. "I don't want to be someone who... just totally failed at being... I mean... I don't want to be known for being kicked out of Hogwarts when I was twelve and going down THAT road..." he tried to explain, screwing up his eyes with the effort of putting it into words. "I mean, I totally suck at magic, but... you know..." Jake trailed off, avoiding any eye contact with the man before him.
"I like climbing," Jake admitted, sounding a little spacey. "But I scaled the outside of our block of flats once and my mother didn't like it... And I did the same thing in my dad's house, but they don't know about that," he added, before looking straight into Truebridge's face, eyes twinkling excitedly. "I got onto the roof," he said, kind of boasting, a crazy kind of happy look on his face. "It felt... like I was on top of the world."
Ahhhh, good times.
