Almost to the point of wondering if he’d really given up on getting her to talk, until he’d finally spoken and she only got that much more suspicious. “Why do you think I hate you?,” she replied after a moment. Not answering the question at all, but then in her mind it wasn’t like she hated him. She hated spiders, and being disrespected. But she didn’t hate people. Just distrusted them.
And back to the spiders. If he was so worried about whether or not she hated him, talking about what she really hated wasn’t going to help his cause. “Exactly,” she replied, ignoring his little feat of strength. She didn’t particularly care about what he could or couldn’t do, not when it didn’t involve tracking down her cat. Tywin hadn’t run off lately anyhow. She figured even he’d gotten spooked by the spiders last term. The only reason she’d come back was the fact that everything had said the infestation was over with, really. That and her continued desire to do something that her sister hadn’t. She’d narrowed her eyes as the Hufflepuff had spoken yet again, though, even though it wasn’t anything to do with spiders. She didn’t see how that was happier, or why it even mattered to her. “No.” She was only a fourth year, after all.
Adi stared down at the ground as he waited for Brooklyn's answer. What was he feeling? Just curiosity. He had seen her being friendly with others so he was wondering what it was that she disliked about him. Of course he didn't mind if he was not liked. Hehe. Ah. He should have known Brroklyn would choose to answer his question with a question.
"I dunno. Maybe I'm always too happy and cheerful and that gets to you?'' Yep, that's what he always thought. Now the Puffer just needed a confirmation on that. Or a denial. Whichever.
Wheee! He was strong! Superman he could be, maybe? Naaaah, BATMAN! Yeah, the Dark Knight RULED! Anywayyy, Adi was greeted by a single word in response to his question.
"Alrightey! I was just wondering since you're almost a fifth year and you would have to choose which subjects you need to do for OWLs and NEWTs.'' Or if she was as ambitious as him, she'd write them all.
"Hey, if you need to talk about careers, I'm all ears.''
