It was like one of those Mexican show downs. Only...they weren't Mexican. More like French and the paranoid man. "erh...well im just going to go." he said as he could feel the tension rising. it wasn't going in his favor either." thanks mari." he told her as he moved to lightly touch her arms for a brief second." I"ll leave you to your boyfriend." It seemed like he was already ready to pop a button. he gave Robert a smile as he headed towards his own table. Mari looked up as Cayden said he was going to go then and she gave him a little smile as he left. " Boyfriend?" She said, questioning that last bit as she and Robert hadn't ever really discussed anything...they had just sort of said they'd see one another at school. Of course, he seemed intent on being around Elizabeth (her friend, of all people!) so she had gotten miffed and well...now things were weird again. Quote:

His attention was completely gone from Cayden as Robert stared at Mariska in shock and frustration. He barely registered the brief contact that Cayden made with Mariska and a few of his words, namely Cayden calling him her boyfriend. As the boy left he just sat looking at Mariska, "I see." He stood up, not breaking his gaze from her, "If you wanted to hang out with him so much why didn't you just say so. I would have just backed off. Could have fooled me with the way you went out with me and everything...but I guess that I should have expected that from you." The fact that he wasn't yelling surprised him the most as how much anger was coursing through him. Without another word and without even still clarifying the status of where they stood with each other he walked back over toward Elizabeth and sat down next to her again with a sigh. "Can you teach me about musicals and stuff tonight?" He asked, picking up the conversation from where it had ended. Mari looked quite surprised as Robert stood up suddenly, staring at her as if she had mortally offended him. She opened her mouth to answer him. " You could have told me the same thing you know, about Elizabeth." She said somewhat snappisly, and then she closed her eyes a moment before she spoke again, sighing with frustration. " I know we didn't talk about..." She stopped as he spoke again. Her green eyes narrowed and she made to get up as he spoke. " From me? What's that supposed to mean?" She said as he walked away. She looked at him, an indignant expression on her face. " The nerve of..." She stopped then, and sat back down, telling herself to calm down. No one needed to see how angry she was or actually how he had hurt her feelings just then. She took a deep breath and thought that this was the first time she had sat alone in a long time. Quote:

Ludo opened his mouth to apologize but before he could, the Ravenclaw ghost was off towards the staff table.
As Liz and the Ravenclaw boys' conversation paused, Ludo was introduced. He briefly glanced at the boy, Robert. "Ludo...'Pleasure." Though he had the smallest hint of displeasure to his voice. "You were in the compartment with Mari and Liz, correct?"
Ludo looked up and saw Mari watching Liz and Robert. Had he been sitting in her position, he might have been doing the same. "Is there something between her and this guy?" he thought. He tried to catch her eye, but before he could...someone familiar approached her.
Ludo recognized the boy from Diagon Alley. "The lady's man..." he thought.
This was just great. As Mari talked with the boy dressed in Slytherin robes and Robert talked to Liz, Ludo sat quietly. Having been so hungry before, he couldn't help but notice he was merely pushing the food around on his plate. Mari pressed her lips together a bit as she got up and walked past Robert, intent on ignoring him now. For the moment, anyway. " So, Ludo...do you have any theories as to why the new History of Magic Professor decided to retire from acting to teach instead?" She said, trying to ignore the feeling that she had made a bit of a mistake in getting so irked over nothing earlier.
