"He's gonna be so happy to see us. He about fell over when I told him we were gonna be Head Boy 'n Girl together this summer. I think he tries to pretend like he doesn't like you a lot, but he's wild about you 'n thinks you're a good kid both in general AND for me, so like..." she shrugged, "don't worry. It'll be fine. If you joke around with him, he'll joke back, and it'll all be okay, all right?"
They were going on their sixth term with Culloden and here she was still coaching Zander on how to not be scared of the man. Sigh. This would be the term that the Gryffindor would FINALLY BE FULLY COMFORTABLE WITH CULLODEN. SHE WOULD MAKE SURE OF IT. ZANDER ADAIR WON'T BE FULLY COMFORTABLE WITH CULLODEN UNTIL THE DAY HE DIED. But you didn't hear that from him.... Ahem. Though, Sophie's efforts were truly heroic and admirable. It'd take a lot to budge this opinion. Or at least that's what he was sure of as he made his way alongside Soph.
Merlin, he'd been to the dungeons almost every day for a whole six years now and this place still gave him the creeps. Probably had to do with the temperature dropping like twenty degrees once you entered the place... Or was that just him? Even though the stairs were a pain, Zander preferred the towers over this place any day. No wonder Culloden tried to steal his bed back in third year. Figures. Poor guy probably hated it down here too and no, that was not Zander Adair sympathizing. Merely stating facts. "You sure he won't be annoyed that he's already got student visitors the first day back?" Because some Professors hated that, namely Wicked Walton circa fourth year. Granted, he had dropped a vase of flowers on the man's floor, but still. Not too happy about the visitor thing. But he was also probably making up excuses at this point. He couldn't help it though, there was something about visiting Culloden that made him uneasy. Especially when it was with Sophie because most of the time she sat back and watched the interactions happen. Too much pressure not to be awkward. Made it ten times more awkward.
Also, fell over could be taken two very different ways. Like fell over in horror. In shock. In death. Lots of things. "I should knock, right?" 'Cause otherwise they might be standing outside for ages (((which didn't sound like a terrible idea, actually))). But he took the initiative and knocked without waiting for Sophie to give him an answer. No turning back now. Let the awkward BEGIN.
