At least, as he had pointed out to Josh earlier, Riley would be gone so that was one less reason the incoming seventh year would have to act out when he returned to school next term.
He frowned as Josh went out against Professor Vindictus admitting that he would never forgive him if he was in Stryker's place. "Josh, it wasn't exactly him being ...himself" he remarked sticking up for the quidditch official. "I'm just glad I didn't do anything as crazy myself during that time," he added. Talking like a pirate and swordfighting and dunking Simon the hufflepuff in the lake was bad enough in his opinion.
Ok maybe not the best subject change but...meh. Simon couldn't help agreeing with his friend, but he was a bit more civil about it. "Guess it wasn't meant to be again," he mused with a shrug. He didn't get a chance to say anything more when he was swatted on the back causing him to turn to look to who it was, the voice saying his title clue enough.
"Yeah...and certainly something I'll be missing from you folk," he remarked in half jest with amusement. As much as he enjoyed the time as captain, it had truly been a lot of work.
Had he heard that right? Was Simon seriously trying to claim that Vinny was innocent about this...thing? No one walking on earth could be innocent if they were trying to get some other's love. No one. And no, Josh was not going to
death glare stare towards that certain direction. He definitely did not want to see whatever those two were doing. Because he knew his own anger management problems. He did not want to cause any chaos. And of course he had not forgotten Evelyn's pretty attempts of protecting the coward and there was no way Josh could go against her.
''Yeah.'' so he said doing his best not to look towards the Slytherin table.
''That is always the first excuse if one wanted to clear his trail. Either that or...'' NO! No looking at that direction!
''...the 'we are friends lie'.'' Eh...maybe he should not have said that last sentence since he felt anger inside him rise again, yet he took another deep breath to collect himself. Hopefully, Simon had uttered other words to distract him from the thought.
''You are glad you did not do anything as crazy? Are you sure that is you, Si?''
