Closed Really quiet

✿ ✿ ✿

The courtyard was quiet. Really quiet. Almost no kids were outside. Yet Eugenia was sitting near the fountain reading one of her books. She had a free period and didn’t know what to do. She didn’t want to return to the Hufflepuff common room or read something interesting in the library. She was just bored. At least I have Hogwarts: A History. I could not stand it here alone.
A few leaves fell beside her. Eugenia picked up one. It was red, a sign that fall had truly come. She heard the sound of the water coming out of the fountain, the chippers of the birds. Such a day should have been relaxing for anyone. But it was really not. Eugenia looked around. There were now kids, other first years, chasing each other, some others are talking quietly. Suddenly she spots leaning against a wall, a beautiful blonde girl whom she recognised. It was her friend, Leona. Eugenia got up and started to walk towards her. Leona had her eyes closed, as if she was trying to sleep. Eugenia tapped her on the shoulder. There was no reaction. She tapped her two more times. Leona sort of woke up and looked around, until she saw Eugenia.Hi Leona! How are you. Don’t sleep yet. You will surely miss dinner!

Felix doesn't really like Transfiguration. Too much concentration, and his concentration sucks. He has too many other thoughts cycling around his head, too many other things to think about. He's walking through the courtyard, scanning over some of his homework as he walks.
He looks up as a few orange and brown leaves drift over his head, smiling slightly. He likes the fall weather, though it's almost winter now. Is it... January maybe? There's a bit of a chill in the air, but he doesn't mind.
Fall is probably Felix's favourite season, except for the fact that school starts in September. Bleh. School.

He's not paying as much attention as he probably should be doing, because he is walking though a busy school courtyard. He manages to weave around a few people, and dodges a few fellow first years that are running around in what appears to be some sort of tag game or something. Felix doesn't really know, but it doesn't really matter, does it? They're having fun, so that's good.

He really wishes that he had headphones and something to play music on. Music is great. He mostly just listened to the radio back home, because his sister was usually the one who got to use his dad's phone for music. It helps her calm down, and she likes it. he would prefer if she would use headphones too, just so he doesn't have to listen to her music as well, but he's good at tuning out noise.
Radio channels during breakfast are pretty good. Depending what kind of music it is.

Felix should have been paying more attention.
Actually, he was paying attention, just to the wrong things. Per the usual.
He trips over something with a yelp, it feels like someone's leg, or a bag maybe? Whatever it is, he goes skidding on his stomach.
He falls a lot, but this one was unexpected. He thinks of his dad's goofy theory, that creatures in an alternate universe were tripping him up. He laughs quietly.
He sits up, a bit dazed, checking on his palms, where some blood has started showing up from a few shallow scrapes. He also glances around to see if anyone saw him fall. Now that the shock has faded, the embarrassment is settling in. He thinks that he recognizes a girl nearby, and also thinks that she might be the one that he tripped over. She's sitting by the wall.

"Oh...gosh...sorry Eugenia but I should help that boy..." Leona looks up at Eugenia, who had been poking her. Is that...Felix...that just fell? She gets up and walks over to the familiar boy. "Felix...are you ok?" She asks in a worried tone. Alright...so if this is Felix, which I think it is...I might as well not try to interact. I promised myself that I wouldn't talk to him...but that was before I... Leona offered him a hand. Please... She moves it away remembering one of their meets, Felix had hit his head into a tree and Leona tried to help him.

Felix and Leona had met before one time Leona hit Felix with a book to the face. Another time Leona had fallen over because of the wind. And the last time they were sending letters to their families. I really wish I didn't hit him with a book that first time. Leona anxiously shakes as she waits to see if Felix was good. Well If he isn't ok then I will risk my dinner to bring him to the Medical Wing. She looks at Felix's hand noticing a bit of blood on it. Oh...he's bleeding.

Leona crouches next to Felix waiting for him to say something.

Okay, he does recognise the girl. Yay. Maybe.
Why does he keep running into this Leona person? This is, what, the fourth time? Something like that?

"I'm fine." Felix ignores the hand that she offers and stands up. Yeah, he did say that that was rude, to ignore an offered hand, but he's not really in the mood right now. Or ever, really.
His hands hurt a lot, but his knees are fine, so he feels pretty okay. He notices that there's another girl by the wall, maybe that dormmate that Leona mentioned?

Felix groans quietly as he gets up, the twinge in his leg acting up a bit. "Damn those invisible rats." he grumbles, then realises that he said that out loud. Oh well. Hopefully Leona didn't hear. The alternate universe rats are not something he feels like explaining. At all.
It's kind of like that time he panicked because a carp jumped in front of his kayak and he tipped over because he messed up in a very fast backpedal. It's something he doesn't want to talk about. It's just sort of strange and confusing. That's most conversations with his dad. Also most things that he does. Sort of strange and confusing. The invisible rats were a joke between him and his dad. His dad always laughed at how much Felix tripped over air. The joke was that the rats were what were tripping him.

Eugenia watched as Leona looked up startled and confused. Welp, I guess I woke her up. Then suddenly, they both turned around. A boy, Slytherin was his house, was near them and had just tripped on what seemed like nothing. Eugenia usually had an urge to laugh when people fell. This time though, was different. She did not laugh. Instead, she looked quite concerned, trying to understand if the kid was hurt or not. Matter of fact, he was.
Leona started walking towards the boy on the ground. Oh my gosh… Sorry Eugenia. I should help that boy. Silently, Eugenia agreed with her. Trying not to make much noise she followed her towards the boy. Felix… are you ok? Oh. So the name of the boy must be Felix. Anyways, I should help too. He looks awful. Looking back. She remembered the name “Felix” being called out at the sorting ceremony. Felix… Felix… Oh! He must be Felix Hawthorne! I remember his name being said at the sorting ceremony! When she reached the boy, her thoughts sort of faded. His hands were bleeding and she could hear him muttering under his breath, maybe swearing. Um, uh, Felix, you don’t seem fine. Not at all actually. Should we go to the Hospital Wing? The nurse may be able to, uh, do something… For a moment, she wandered. Did the boy even know her? That was a bit spontaneous of her. She was mostly a deep thinker. Nevermind. Look, he’s hurt. I wouldn’t just leave him here.She looked around once and stuck out her hand. Do you need any help getting up? Her question was a bit… odd. She kneeled too, just as Leona had. And she waited for the boy to respond. He had to, if he was fine. Or maybe he was shy. Eugenia couldn’t know. She just hoped for the best case scenario.

"Ok..." Leona looks beside her to see Eugenia. Well...that wasn't nice, Felix...Why is he so rude? Leona looks at Eugenia and then to Felix. Yes...we should go to the Hospital wing...but I bet Felix is fine. Did he say...invisible...rats? What are those? She looks at Felix's hand and then quickly searches her bag for bandages. Where are they? Leona always brings a pack of band-aids with her just in case she gets cut. "Here." She accidentally says out loud. Leona grabs a small plastic bag of band-aids and pulls one out.

"Do you want a band-aid?...They really help..." Leona quietly asks Felix so Eugenia might not hear. I think you might need it. She sets it down so Felix might grab it. Well if he needs it he should grab it...I think. She wants Felix to grab the band-aid but if he doesn't need it then it's fine.

Now what are invisible rats? Some kind of magic thingy? Leona wonders. She stands up to look around and sees nothing but kids chasing each other. Well if they're invisible how would I see them? She crouches back down to check on Felix. Is he going to be alright? Or do we need to help him?

Felix accepts the band-aid from Leona. "It's just a bit of a scrape, but thanks."
It feels a bit crowded now, the other girl has gotten up and is over here too now. Suppose he should technically be grateful for the concern.

Even though he's never really agreed with the 'two is a company, three is a crowd' saying, but he doesn't really like when there's a lot of people around. Not only is he not exactly one of the 'social butterfly' people, he is slightly claustrophobic as well.

Time to change the subject. That's something he's pretty decent at. Always has been. It's a rather useful skill, being able to turn the conversation. Lets you get out of awkward spots, and can also help with getting information that you want.

"What's your name?" Felix asks the other girl.
He almost sticks out his hand to shake, but rethinks it when he realises that he does in fact have several cuts on his hand. Shallow ones, but not the best for shaking hands. He's had worse injuries. For some reason, he's always smacking into things. Mostly because he zones out. Sometimes because he misjudges distance and space. Cuts have always been some of his least favourite things. Along with growing pains, math test, and bloody noses.
He awkwardly shifts his weight, waiting for her to answer.

"Oh, sorry. I haven't ever brought her up have I?" Leona says quietly. "This is Eugenia. She's my dorm mate. Eugenia this is Felix." She introduces for Eugenia. I never thought this would happen. Felix and Eugenia in the same place with me. Awkward. Also the fact that Felix just tripped. Leona looks around to see if any kids are looking at this situation. No one, good. I don't want to deal with random kids saying things. Leona looks at Felix and then to Eugenia to see their reaction. She looks at her locket for a minute and then slips it away.

I still am wondering, what are invisible rats? Leona looks at Felix and then smiles at Eugenia. "So, how has your day been not including you falling." Leona slowly asks Felix. Please don't ask me why I'm asking. Also please don't get mad. She looks at Felix for awhile and then looks up at the sky. There were a few clouds out now but that didn't help the cold air at all. Why is it so cold? Leona shivers as a small gust of cold air hits her back.

Leona sits looking at the sky well she waits for something to happen like dinner.

Well, Eugenia was a bit awkward with social interaction. All her life, she was a loner, not really having friends or anything. Leona was one of the first friends, true friends she ever had. Well, Leona knew this Felix boy. So at least he would be nice. Leona pulled out something from her bag. Eugenia immediately recognized as a band aid, many muggle-borne carried them around at times. She gave one to the dark-haired Slytherin. Not knowing the person before her was a bit uncomfortable for Eugenia, she went back a few steps.

Soon enough, the boy was up too, he didn’t look really hurt. Eugenia, again, being the older sister of a little girl who was a tad bit clumsy, wanted to ask if he was okay. He landed on his knees on cold, hard concrete. That honestly hurts a bit. It seemed the boy wanted to change the topic. As soon as she walked a few steps closer, she heard him asking her what her name was. Luckily, Leona, who knew them both made the introductions. She didn’t have too, honestly. I guess the three of us are a bit socially awkward in general. Damn, I should make a club. “The Socially Awkward”. She looked at the boy and met his gaze. Hello Felix, nice to meet you. And Leona is a nice dorm mate. You know each other a bit don’t you? I’ve heard
Emma mention you some nights.

She looked up at her friend. She in turn, was gazing at the sky. Eugenia briefly looked up too. There were a few grey clouds, some of them slowly turning black. Geez, it’s going to rain. Well, maybe. It is also a bit cold, though I think I’m used to it. She looked at Leona as she shivered. Another gust of wind hit Eugenia’s back. She felt the hair on her back rise a bit, trying to trap warmth inside her.

Eugenia paused looking at the two others in front of her. They should go. It is certainly awful, being in the cold air. She bit her lip for a second. Then, she tried locking her eyes with Felix, knowing that Leona would still listen, even if her gaze was fixed towards the sky. I reckon it is a bit cold here. The air is awfully cold, matter of fact. Should we go inside? I believe there is a fire in the Great Hall. The girl poked at her peers with a smile. She didn’t bite, after all.
