The thing was what Adam had said about the love-potion was true and the same as Vashti had explained before, it just sounded more acceptable and welcome when it came from HIS mouth.

Go figure.

Louisa's body relaxed a bit, her stern face stayed sterny though. "Fine! I'll get it off my chest," she addressed Adam before turning her face to Vashti, "I hate it how you lied and decieved me to give you the potion. I hate how you think you're right about everything and take the liberity to get into my own personal business." Louisa's voice was sharp but low, "Also, you had no idea how I was going to use the potion! You didn't even know my real purpose behind getting one!" Not that she was about to mention it here. Nope. She knew better than revealing her secrets now.

Folding her arms Louisa added, "I don't want to lose you as a friend, no. I'm not only a Ravenclaw," Emphasizing on the last word for her, "But I have a lot of Hufflepuff in me. I'm loyal enough to remember your attitude toward Kitty and I all these years." Vashti faced a dark wizard for Merlin's sake! "But you can be extra annoying." HEH.

The Ravenclaw's head turned to Adam, smirking, "That felt good." Hopefully Vashti was hurt and touched at the same time. Louisa liked to cause that to friends. HEHEHE.

It was then that Vashti figured it was probably good that they did have a sort of third person who could jump in with a fairly objective view and prevent her and Louisa from killing each other. But at the same time, his "objective" view still annoyed her a bit because he didn't fully believe her side of the story, and he clearly had more reason to trust Louisa's twisted side of the story since he was her friend and not Vashti's.

But did she still want to be friends with Louisa? Maybe. Maybe not. She was far too annoyed with the little fourth year right now to give a very clear-headed response to that question. Getting it off her chest sounded quite nice though.

Shame Louisa had to go first.

And shame it didn't actually make her feel any better hearing all that. Not even her "I still want to be friends" helped considering she followed it up with "you're annoying". Yeah, like that was going to make anything better.

Least it was her turn now.

"Yeah, well I hate how you think you're right about everything and I hate that you thought it was better to come here and prank me - with a friend, no less - instead of facing me yourself. I hate how you don't think about the consequences of your words and actions before it actually happens, and I hate how you try and justify everything you do, no matter how wrong or hurtful it is. I don't care what your 'real purpose' for using the love potion was - it's wrong no matter who you use it on and no matter what your reasoning is. If you want someone to love you and respect you, you have to earn it, Louisa. A bloody love potion is not going to fix all your problems. It's only going to make it worse. So it's time you grew up and fixed your problems yourself instead of blaming it on other people and trying to get magic spells and potions to fix it for you."

Hm. Both Louisa and Quiet Boy were right about something at least - it did feel pretty good to get all that off her chest.

Adam listened to Louisa as she went first, happy that she concluded that she still wanted to be friends but flinching slightly that she called Vashti annoying. Perhaps that was a thought that might have been better kept to herself since it did kind of negate everything that she had just said, but they were getting things off their chests so maybe it was just something that she needed to get out there. When she turned to him and said that felt good with a little smirk Adam smiled and gave a nod of the head.

Then he turned to look at Vashti to indicate that it was her turn to go, and he listened thoughtfully as Vashti spoke. As he was listening to her he realized that perhaps in a way there was some truth to Vashti. Louisa was a think with her emotions kind of person, not that there was anything wrong with that, but sometimes it did put her in situations to get hurt not only herself but to hurt other people. Even Adam wasn't sure how he would have responded to Louisa if he'd known that she used a love potion on him...Was Dallin going to start talking to her again? He couldn't blame the kid if he needed a bit of time. And as Vashti continued it occurred to Adam that Vashti sounded like the kind of friend that was tired of trying to mentor and help Louisa...after all he was pretty sure that Vashti was older than both of them, and her words definitely made it sound like she was tired of trying to do the right thing and being stomped on by Louisa's angry words or silly pranks.

When Vashti had finished speaking Adam gave the girl a warm smile. "Do you feel better now?" he asked, hoping that getting it off her chest had at least helped a little. He was going to ignore the fact that Vashti hadn't answered the question of whether or not she still wanted Louisa and her to be friends...perhaps she needed to do a bit more contemplating before she came to that conclusion.

"So...now that you guys have gotten some things off your chest, where do you want to go from here? What do you guys need to try and get back to the best friend status that I knew you guys used to be," Adam said, giving them both an encouraging smile. Was it just him or was he starting to sound like a therapist more than a friend?
