Tobi grinned. Fifth years are funny when they're afraid. "Kayla's got way more patience for you than I do. She at least gives you the benefit of the doubt, but she had spoken two words to you before you fell out of a tree and into my problems. And when cooler heads prevail, I know you aren't a dirty fifth year, out to woo and wound Cela, but I don't always get to that point before I've gone and attacked you in front of a teacher or a prefect. Kayla's trying to teach me this 'benefit of the doubt' thing when it comes to you. Mostly her regime consists of, 'Tobi, you will wait and see what he has to say for himself, under pain of death.' And since I'm not known to hold a grudge past my initial burst of temper, you and I are okay." Tobi took another long sip of coffee, talking so much was leaving him parched.

"As for getting Cela to listen, the person to ask is Kayla." He explained, "She knows that subject way better than I do. I listen to Cela, that's my job. Kayla's the one who has to make her listen even if she may not want to hear something." He attacked his pudding with gusto at this point. He hadn't eaten in almost an hour and a half, his metabolism couldn't take it.
