Thoughtfully he leaned back more in his chair as he responded to her query. A question Leo hadn't really put much thought to. "If you're inside Ravenclaw Tower then you can wear the clothes that feels most comfortable, but outside in the castle or the grounds when classes aren't in session then it's better if you wear your full uniform with your house robes included. It will make it easier for you and won't make you lose any points. Plus I can't tell every professor and staffer that I've given you permission to not wear your house robes then all the students will want to follow suit. And then it'll turn into chaos." Something that Leo wanted to avoid at all costs.

Shaking his head Leo said "I'm sorry that some people have made you feel that way Hadley. I just want you to strive to become the best self that you can be. I want you to be Hadley, nobody else. If your closest friends accept you as you are isn't that enough? Do you have to care what everyone else thinks? It's what you think that matters. Don't forget that!"

"My owl," she confirmed, nodding. He was a birthday gift to her the year before coming to Hogwarts, and, well, given she was the only one in the house with a need for an owl, she wasn't sure she'd exactly call him the house owl.

"I understand, sir." She honestly didn't. If she wore her robes to class, and was still in her uniform when not in class, why should it matter if she was without her robes hanging out in the library, or eating lunch or just hanging out with friends? It wasn't like she was in street clothes. She was still in the uniform she had on under her robes. But she wasn't going to argue the point. It'd be pointless too.

She merely listened to rest of what he had to say. His words were right of course, and made sense. They were the ideal that all adults tell you to do, but part of what makes them all human makes it very hard to actually achieve. It shouldn't matter what others thing, but more often than not, it did. Especially when all you've ever hoped for was a place to belong truly. After a slight lingering silence, Hads said, "I won't forget, sir. Thank you." So was that it then? "Did you have anything else you wanted to talk to me about?"
