"Oh, sorry, sorr--" he immediately began to ramble, only to be cut off by the first year's observation that he was in his way.
Cornelius's eyebrows rose at the statement, not having expected the younger student to be so straight forward and stern with his first words. But in the next moment, his expression broke into a large grin and he let out a soft chuckle, "I suppose I was," he agreed, extending out one of his hands to the boy who was still on the floor in order to help him up.
"Sorry about that..." he started, but trailed off just slightly as he examined the younger student's face, his brows furrowing. Why was that expression so familiar? He shrugged it off for the time being, immediately replacing the confused look with another smile as his hand sat hanging in the air, waiting for the unknown boy to accept his peace offering/help.
Maybe a bit slow? Weren't Ravenclaws supposed to be super smart? Even if they weren't as smart as Aspen, they were still smart, right?
"You were." West reiterated, but took the big boy's hand and hoisted himself up, cos he was strong and all, and then let go. Wait. Where was his map? He looked around and then, spotting it, he scooped it up triumphantly.
"Hey!" Realisation.
"Do you know where a mirror is? And a tapestry? They're supposed to be on this floor." And it would be FASTER if this big boy just TOLD him where. He bounced a couple times eagerly, eyes going big.
Tell him or else!
