Louisa absently started eating red grapes from the fruit bowel he placed on the blanket before, listening to him as he talked more than one sentence which was quite a feat. At his 'See?' though, she raised her eyebrows. "It's really fine, Emrys." She wasn't getting how his mind worked in social life. "I don't mind the way you've held yourself with me so far." Even if he didn't shake paws with Viola or laugh at her duckie news, she didn't like being with a nodder.

Then he stammered and blurted out the baby house-elf question. She shrugged one shoulder, "Yeah, my friends told me that too. It's not easy. Being... attached to someone to an extent and then everything turns out to chaos and wounds." Dramatic last word but Louisa was a queen drama when it came to relationships anyway. Leaning her chin on her knees, she asked him "Did you ever have a girlfriend?" He was homeschooled and kept himself in a bubble, it was highly unlikely but you never know.

The baby house-elf could wait. They weren't here to just chat about school- well, they were but Louisa was determined to get to know him better.
"I'm so-" and he immediately began to laugh. Holding the back of his neck with his hand, he shook his head. "I was going to do it again. I guess I just don't really know what's ok and what's not in social situations. I'm super confident when it comes to school, but have to talk to someone? Ball of nerves." He laughed, nervously.

Listening to her talk about.. whatever his name was.. Emrys started to feel a little funny, and took a sip of his butterbeer as he listened to her talk. It sounded... awful.

But he nearly choked on his butterbeer at her question. "Me?" He felt his ears get hot as he met her eyes. His cheeks flushed. "I can barely talk to you without tripping over my tongue. Girls... tend not to like me."
