The end of another year already, was it? Evan made his way into the great hall, quickly selecting himself a spot at the Ravenclaw table and getting comfortable and offering nods of acknowledgement to all who were already seated there. It felt surreal it was already time to board the Hogwarts Express again, like there hadn't been enough of the year. But he realized rather quickly that was probably due to the fact he was fast approaching his seventh year, with zero ideas on what he was going to pursue after. More and more he was considering a gap year, like Noah had done. Time to figure out life and what he wanted. Though, his instincts said to drive himself crazy over the summer to sort everything before September 1st.

But he knew he wasn't going to do that. The next chapter of his life was too important for rushed decisions, and a busy summer loomed ahead. Despite not being the closest of the cousins, Evan was quite looking forward to Chin-hae's wedding. Spending a large amount of time with Halmeoni, and getting to introduce the rest of his crazy family to his best friend, sounded like a lot of fun. And in a not so typical Evan fashion, he really just wanted to focus on enjoying that. Watching his brother catapulted into the necessities of adulthood following a year of break, it was clear it was important to enjoy the calm while he was able.

Pulling a sherbet drop from his pocket, Evan popped in his mouth and scanned the room for his favorite people. He'd have to make note of who to go around and say goodbye to post dinner.
