The stuff she was saying definitely hurt though, considering they were things that so often crossed her mind anyway. No comment.
".... I don't know." Or maybe she did and it wasn't coming to mind.
"I'm not saying this to hurt your feelings...but you are what changed." Vesper wanted to cross her arms, mostly to protect her own self from what she was saying...but that would've appeared confrontational to outsiders...and she didn't want anyone to know that she was having this conversation. In fact, she was mildly embarrassed about this...but Alice had insisted. It wasn't smart on so many levels...but Gryffindors. Ves was starting to understand about them...
Sigh.
"I..." She paused to breathe.
"I...hate the way he sees himself because of you...and no, he hasn't told me anything, before you ask." It was important for Alice to know that. Vesper would NOT have been comfortable talking abut his girl, anyway. No.
"...but I watch him. I watch him all the time because I care..." Mostly because of that, anyway.
"...and he's so sad."
Frown.
