Mostly Atlas was just trying to figure out a means to focus enough so that he was still learning. If Rosier and The Hoods™ were going to take everything else away and keep it all down with fear, then at least he could learn. Though his stomach twisted terribly at the thought of that being precisely what their agenda was. At least...that a certain group strengthen their magic.

Being 11 was a lot harder than he thought it would be.

Pulling a sweet from the bag in his pocket, the Gryffindor was just about to pop it into his mouth when he saw Delaney up ahead looking forlorn and ... well ... considering THINGS he did not blame her one bit. Quietly he approached her, but also sort of stomped his feet a bit so he wouldn't totally take her by surprise, and once he was close enough he offered her the same candy he had been about to eat to her instead. "Fizzing Wizbee? Might help you feel a bit...lighter."

...at least he thought he was funny.

The temperature had dropped considerably more than she had expected. Her body shivered involuntarily, and she attempted to bull her robes around her tighter still. Perhaps she should have found a secluded section inside the castle to sulk. But suddenly her head whipped around as she heard loud footsteps approach her. It seemed as though this passage was not as deserted as she originally thought.

The figure approaching her was a blonde boy, young enough to be in the same year as her. In fact, Delaney was almost positive he had been in a majority of her classes this year…. Flagstad…Flamton…whatever. Actually… there might be two of them but apparently Delaney hasn’t been very observant during her lessons towards much of anything being constantly looking out for the cloaked Neo Alliance members. She stared blankly as he approached.

She narrowed her eyes at the candy he held in his hands. The anger that had been building inside her chest was difficult to contain now that there was someone she could direct it towards… “Not interested.” She spit out, spinning her body away from him and starring back out at the lake. However, the rage that consumed her body left almost as quickly as it came, and the snake felt a bit guilty for snapping at the boy. But only a little. Sighing heavily Delaney turned back towards the lion, scrunched up her nose impatiently as she avoided eye contact and mumbled out an apology, “Sorry. I didn’t mean to snap at you. Just wasn’t expecting company, I guess… I was just trying to find space to think...”
