Felix tucks his hands into his pockets, knowing that people often make a big deal about a little bit of marker. "It's just marker. I was bored at five o'clock this mornin', and I had some markers.". Leona is staring off into the distance, but he can't really judge that. He does it too, sometimes. Usually people get very annoyed.

Knowing that the girl is impatient, and apparently hungry too, Felix starts walking, walking very fast. Leona seems to be doing fine, so he's not really going to take the effort to accommodate her slow walk. He would like some conversation right now, but that's probably not going to happen. All of his attempts to start some sort of conversation didn't work, and Leona doesn't seem to want to continue just one conversation. She brings up different stuff each time they talk.

He realises that they were almost to the courtyards and the staircase. "Well, c'mon then! Let's go. It's almost dinner, if you're hungry." he's not hungry, and would be quite happy to stay out on the grounds for the rest of the evening, but, okay, he'll come have dinner, probably. Maybe. Or not. Leona's a Hufflepuff, so she'll be at a different table from him.

"Ok... I am quite hungry." Leona stares at Felix as she tries to keep up. "Can you..." She stops talking as soon as she remembers Felix before. He hadn't slowed down. Soon she stopped to sit by a short oak tree. After a couple of minutes she got up and ran to Felix.

"Why do you walk so fast?" Leona starts to walk ahead away from Felix, alone. Maybe he thinks she's super annoying and just plain stupid. Felix didn't comment on me being muggle-born She hasn't told anyone about being a muggle-born (other than Felix) and she feels very concerned. She could easily now tell Felix about her family if she wanted to.

I could tell him about my parents. Or my friends. Or ask him what television is. Leona stares at the castle as she gets much closer but then stops waiting for Felix. She just noticed how far ahead she was. Felix looked about a meter away from her. She doesn't think about Felix for awhile but only about Eugenia. What will she think if I come back with a cut head? What is she doing? She stares a the door of the castle well waiting for Felix to catch up.

Be your self, everyone else is taken.

"I don't walk fast." Felix says, continuing to walk the exact same speed. He doesn't care if she thinks that he's walking fast.

He adjusts his bag on his shoulder, and brushes a hand through his hair, which is something he does mindlessly a lot of the time. He is very, very, very, like, extremely bored. Like, 'why am I doing this my life is so boring and I'm suddenly tired what the hell' was the kind of bored he was right now.

"TV's aren't that exciting. Just things to play movies on. If you're Muggleborn, how come you don't know what a TV is? Also, I'm very very bore- ooh shiny!" he stops suddenly, twisting around the crouch and picks up a piece of metal, a small piece of chain or something. He likes shiny things. He has a whole collection of random items. He doesn't care where they come from, but mini locks, magnets, string and other such things were his personal treasures. He builds things out of them, takes it apart, and builds something different. Felix pockets the chain and continues walking, as though nothing happened.
It's odd that Leona doesn't know about TVs. It's the freaking 21st century lady! How do you not know what a TV is?

"What do you mean I should know what TV is? What's that?" Leona points to what Felix put in his pocket. It looked shiny and cool. She usually doesn't care for shiny things but Felix seems to be taking an interest in it. She just wants to know what it was but not take it. It looked like a chain.She thinks. Maybe Felix lost it? She knows that it could be Felix's chain.

What should I say next? Leona looks around but stays quiet. What should she do now? Keep walking, maybe. Leona sits down to rest by a small rock near the castle entrance. I'm so hungry. It's almost dinner now. She looks at the door and gets up to start walking in. She stops to look back at Felix. "Are you coming?" She asks Felix and then turns around. She gets to the door but doesn't open it.

Leona stares at Felix waiting for him to get to where she is. I'll go in as soon Felix gets here. She watches a bird fly around and then land in a tree nearby. She watches a few other birds well waiting for Felix to get to the door and maybe open it.

Felix stops walking, having caught up with Leona. He looks at her, a sort of quizzical expression. He honestly doesn't know why. Maybe just because he doesn't feel like walking all the way back into the castle when he probably will just come right back outside.
"Maybe you should go by yourself? I mean, you're walking just fine now, and you want to get dinner, so what am I supposed to be doing here?" Leona still hasn't started a conversation with him, and she doesn't seem to need his help anymore, so Felix wonders if he should leave.
The chain is kind of uncomfortable in his pocket, but he tries to ignore it. He's used to carrying rocks and things in his pockets, but he never gets that used to the feeling of small items.

He grabbed some food from lunch earlier, crackers and a sandwich and whatever else, he didn't really pay attention. He stored it in a container that he had, and planned to eat the stuff later, if he got hungry at all.
Felix usually attended dinner, but it was so noisy, and busy, and he often wasn't that hungry, so he sometimes skipped and wandered around the castle or went to the common room at that point.

He gives a slightly playful grin, or at least, one of the most playful expressions that he does with people he barely knows. "Unless you can't open a door by yourself? Or you want company?"

"Um...I'm...fine." Leona felt herself blushing a bit but then shook it off. Why would he ask me if I wanted company? She stares at Felix and doesn't open the door just yet. She needs to ask him something. But she doesn't in case he ignores her (again). She reaches for the door then stops to think. Maybe he wants a company? He looks kind of bored. She hadn't noticed anything about Felix until now. Felix seemed to be trying to be nice to her.

Of all people Leona would think Felix was nice. Felix was so rude to her before. Why was he being nice to her now? He could have easily left her when she fainted. Why didn't he leave? Leona looks at the door to the castle but turns to Felix. "What do you...think of me? Like not looks or anything..." She quietly asks Felix wanting to maybe delay leaving him. She really wanted to talk to him more. Also she didn't really feel hungry anymore.

"Actually can...you walk with me?" Leona said hoping she wouldn't regret it. Will he walk with me or stay? She looks at Felix knowing that he might not walk with her. Would he though?

Felix notices a slight flush to Leona's face. Well. That's funny. Did he cause that? Her blushing? He takes note of that. It could work out to his advantage sometime.

Oookay, onto the next topic. She said something else, but he missed it, what with her talking so quietly.
Then she asks if he can stay and walk with her, and he is... rather confused. Why does she want him to walk with her? She doesn't seem to like him very much, though she still keeps trying to talk to him, which is odd. Most people abandon their attempts to make friends after a few minutes. Even he stops trying to be friendly after a while. And he hasn't exactly been very nice to her either.

"'Kay... I can walk with you, if that's actually what you want." Felix says. He's not sure what's happening. He doesn't trust it much. A lot of people have been nice to him, only to ditch him or use whatever he said against him. Leona doesn't seem like the kind of person to do that sort of thing, but you never really know. Ever. People can surprise you, in good or bad ways.
He means to start walking again, but instead ends up kind of just standing still, pretty confused still.

"That...is...what I want...if you're fine with that." Leona looks at Felix knowing he probably noticed her blush. He seems like he wants to walk with me. She stares at the door and walks up to it to open it. She looks back at Felix to see if he was going to come in. She watches Felix for a few seconds. Then she turns to look at the trees nearby. Pine,cool, a juniper. Wow! A wych elm.

Leona stares as some birds fly around. I wonder if i'll become friends with anyone. She thinks, although she knows she has some already. She has Eugenia, her dorm mate. But Eugenia and her are dorm mates Leona's not sure. Well I might have Felix soon. Maybe. She thinks Felix doesn't like her or maybe he's not very good at making friends. Leona understands that, she isn't very good at making friends or keeping them. She somewhat understood if Felix didn't want to become friends with her or even become friendly at all.

Is Felix coming or not? Leona looks back and doesn't really care what Felix is doing. She just stands and waits for him to hurry up maybe. She reaches for the door at last but waits for Felix.

Be your self, everyone else is taken.

"'Kay." Felix walks forward and pushes the door open, turning sideways to get through around Leona, who is kind of blocking the door. She seems to be looking around. Maybe at the plants? If not, maybe the people, the sky, the birds, or any other random stuff that's around here.

He's not sure about this Leona kid, but he's got nothing better to do, since Matthew's busy and he doesn't know where Kaitlyn or any of the others are. He's done pretty well in making friends this year. Far better than he ever did back at his old school, where he either lost his friends, or never made them in the first place. He didn't mind being solitary, but he likes being alone when it's his choice and he has something to do. Not when he has no one to hang out with and he's bored out of his stupid freaking mind.

"Do you have any friends in Huffepuff?" Felix asks, rather suddenly, but okay, it's fine. He's just a bit curious. She seems rather desperate to talk with him, and he's not the most pleasant person, so maybe she just needs to make friends? He smiles a bit at the thought of his own friends, Kaitlyn and Matthew and a few others. He stands just inside the door, waiting for Leona to hurry up, and
keeps a flat expression. He doesn't want to find out that he'd been annoying one of those girls who has like, a score of friends who will take revenge for her. He has many other reasons why he cares if Leona has other friends, but they don't matter right now.

I guess we leave soon? Cause we're not really in the Grounds anymore.

"Well, i'm not very sure if my dorm mate is my friend but...yes I have friends." Leona says. Well they might finally be going to the Hospital Wing after waiting forever. I might have Eugenia...and maybe that boy Azazel...but i'm not sure. She watches her step hoping she won't trip. What will the nurse say? She thinks watching Felix.

Leona reaches for her head and when she touches it it hurts a bit. Well, I bet most people will ask me about this. She wants to go to her bed and sleep. But she doubts Felix would let her. She stays quiet as she waits. She doesn't really want to talk right now, she doesn't feel up to starting a conversation. What will happen if I go by myself? Will my relationship with Felix be worse? Leona wants to be closer with Felix but if he doesn't want to be close with her then, she doesn't care.

Soon Leona starts walking by herself wondering how Felix will react. Does Felix not like me? Or does he but just doesn't really care? She often turns around to see if Felix was angry but didn't think much of it. I hope we see each other again. She waves a small bit to Felix as she walks.
