She hadn't been so worried about the tournament before, excited in fact. It was when she realized that her friends and not some random students that attended Hogwarts would be entering their name that she began to worry. "I'm just worried about you and Rai." She looked up at him. "I didn't think ya'll would enter your names since you could get hurt." Or die. That was what really worried her, but she wouldn't mention it to him again. "Why did you enter the tournament?" Sparing a quick glance at the girl on the other side of the enclosure, he frowned lightly at the expression on her face. Had she been crying? He might have asked, checked to see if she was okay as she headed to the shed, but Arya's words held him tight to the spot. For a moment he turned his frown somewhere distant, not really seeing or hearing the animals shuffle about in the otherwise silence of the enclosure. "You really want to know..." With a sigh he plopped down beside Arya, glancing at her from the corners of his eyes; he owed her that much at least. "Well, I can tell you I didn't do it for fame, or the reward, or the attention, or for kicks and giggles." Resting back on his elbows he considered his friend with a soft expression. "I may be a fool and thick-headed, but I am not one for actively seeking out death. It's crossed my mind, what it's like, as I'm sure it has for all people both young and old, but I am not so foolhardy as to rush knowingly into danger for the purpose of glory."
Shaking his head he let out a brief, light laugh. "You know me Arya, I have no desire for winnings or rewards." Tilting his head back, he regarded the other animals in the pasture. "If one of these creatures were in danger, you would go and help it yes? Without thinking, you would go?"
