 Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - ❄ Lunar Library Lurker ❄ - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror
Gideon did his best to simply stand off to the side of the room and quietly watch the interaction between father and daughter. This was Selina's battle it seemed and he knew better then to step in and try to fight it. She had made that very clear after he took the bludger meant for her at their first match and got seriously hurt because of it. If she hadn't been worried for his health or guilty for his injuries because of him, no doubt the feisty, sometimes tempermental redhead would have only made him worse off as pay back for trying to protect her.
Trying to do what her father was in fact admitting to at the moment. Though perhaps more protection of her emotions and such then the physicality of a bludger.
He couldn't help but let out the breathe that he hadn't even known he had been holding when Jake finally backed down for the moment and returned to the kitchen. Right...that was where the man would be and where they should probably stay away from for the time being. "That...was close," he remarked quietly looking down at his shoes absently as he tried to think of the best way to return to their calm and playful behavior before the interruption. The teasing jest of their ticklish fighting had been broken and drowned out by the tension just now starting to escape the tight room.
