Fabien smiled as Marie shared that Gryffindor was a nice house and she had many friends in it, something he was glad to hear as he'd been a little worried she was one of the Slytherins who usually preferred to stick to having only Slytherin friends. He rose his eyebrows slightly as she then shared she'd played Seeker for Slytherin the year before, but was playing Chaser this time. "I doubt the other Houses stand a chance," he said with a soft chuckle, sure the girl must've been pretty skilled.

He watched as she seemed to grow a bit cold, and considered the idea of perhaps lending the girl his cloak; though he ended up opting best against it, not sure if that would've been too straightforward for someone who was only a servant in this home. "Are you only allowed in at your brother's command?" Fabien asked with slightly furrowed brows. "What would happen if you just went in without their permission? It's not very fair they're keeping you girls out here in the cold like this," he added with a small sympathetic smile, feeling a little bad now for all the other siblings who were desperate to just head back inside already. It didn't seem fair they had to stand out here in the cold simply because their oldest brother hadn't given an order.
