"What do you think William? Myself and....this guy," he said, biting his lip awkwardly and looking apologetically at the boy whose name he did not know, "...both think that the equation doesn't work, cause if it HAD, we'd have found aliens by now. What about you?" he asked.
Eino looked over his shoulder to his right and left but there was no one behind. Who was the boy smiling at? Him? Oh, well, here it goes... Eino smiled back, forcefully and awkwardly. It looked more a face someone would make if they had tasted and smelled something foul, but to Eino it was a smile.
The smiley Hufflepuff boy then proceeded to engage in conversation with a Gryffindor, during which he mentioned Eino, but didn't seem to know his name. "My name's Eino." He briefly interrupted their conversation in hopes of joining it. "I wonder if they use magic to hide themselves like we do to hide from Muggles." He shared with Alex and the Gryffindor boy, as an option as to why these aliens would be unfindable. If it worked for wizards it probably worked for aliens, too. No?
