"Merlin Marie, lighten up will ya?" she asked, raising a brow at her friend, imitating her look, and then giving her a look of her own. Eh, so what if Evelyn slightly pointed out the obvious, and sorta thought that Marie was actually talking about Lafay and not Truebridge. Bite her head off next time.
"Besides, it seems we're going to need all the happiness we can get to survive this night." Did no one see how already some of the professors were in bad moods? Like...like Vinny. Hehe, someone was sitting in his seat. Speaking of happiness, or funniness in other words, she couldn't help but laugh at what Sierra said.
"I doubt anyone would want to walk that dog anyway."
Well no, there were a few. Heck, if someone was willing to get engaged to him, then there certainly were others who would have no problem having him as company.
"We really need to start calling him something else though. I hear he's got himself another girlfriend. Already. Aren't dogs supposed to be like...loyal and such?"
It most certainly was his mistake. That was not her cup.
Hehe, well Marie definitely thought of a good way to say, or show, who's cup it was. This kid, she knew, was already going to be a thorn in her side. Best stay away from him and have someone else have to deal with him. Like…Lafay.
"I've got a better idea." The Slytherin girl murmured calmly, trying to keep her cool as she leaned forward towards the opposite end of the table so she didn’t need to raise her voice over everyone else to get this piece of information into this kid's brain.
"How about I tell you how to keep your mouth shut." And she was going to have to if she predicted right on what was going to happen. Marie was angry. Her words spoke more than what the kid probably realized.
That didn’t mean Evelyn wasn't amused at what her Slytherin friend was saying.
"Adequate or not…" she started, first looking at Marie, and then to the kid who really needed a good curse to shut his mouth.
"…you will respect the Professor. You're going to have a tough time here if you keep up that attitude." And by tough, she meant he was going to have a tough time from
them.
Merlin, could he not bury his attitude slightly? Heck, even she wasn’t that blunt about things. Except maybe now, but even then, she was keeping it on the down low.
Yea, okay, that wasn't exactly the answer she was expecting but well...it wasn't worse either.
"No." she said plainly, shaking her head and frowning before gesturing to the box.
"But really, you just took the box? Not even knowing if it was a trap? Or explode? Or make your fingers be permanently stuck to it?"
No caution whatsoever!
