"He did What? Merlin that kid has no sense. I gave him a good tongue lashing for what he said to Kurumi at the lake earlier and he did me the same way. One day that kid is going to meet the wrong side of somebody and I hope I'm around when it does." When Hugo said he believed that love was based on friendship Connor nodded. "I couldn't agree more, and it's also based on respect and yes attraction is a part of it, but without the honest friendship and respect, the attraction means nothing." He glanced over at Kurumi and smiled, Merlin he loved that girl with all his heart and even if she never loved him in return he would still be her friend and that was the most important thing.

Connor knelt in front of Heather. "Well it's like this little one, Just as people come in all kinds of different sizes, so do magical bears. Theodore is about the size of Twinkle over there, and he wears a red and green patchwork vest and Green Corduroy pants. He told his little friend honestly. "Theodore came to me when I was two years old." He smiled.

He turned his attention to the large panda doll. "You have my word Pandaman." he smiled and bowed his head to his new friend.

Connor smiled and added the apples until the pan looked quite full. "Is this enough Kurumi?" He asked softly, then turning his attention to the trouble Heather was having with the egg whites, he smiled at her and said, "Is It ok if I help you? You might need a little more arm strength Little one." He stood behind her, leaning over her shoulder and placing his left hand over hers, His golden serpent ring glinting in the light, He helped her stir until the egg whites formed a stiff Meringue. He then took the bowl over to Kurumi. "How's this?

Kurumi only caught the tail end of Connor's conversation with Hugo, so she wasn't really sure what they were talking about, but she thought it was fantastic that the Ravenclaw could have an older boy to talk about things with. Kurumi was rubbish on the subject, besides what her brothers had told her and some of the things she had read about in their diaries. A few times, she wished that she hadn't because it had left her more confused than before she had cracked the binding.

Kurumi scanned the saucepan and was about to reply to Connor when he had already vanished. Looking over her shoulder, Kurumi didn't see him, so she looked over her other and saw him helping Heather with mixing the egg whites.

Leaning around the pair, she saw the the whites were to a proper consistency. "Don't mind me..." she said smiling as she took the bowl and returned her attention to the saucepan which she began tend to.
