[ Whether you're in a shop or wandering the Alley itself, there's a chance you'll run into a boy who looks to be in the middle of his time at Hogwarts.

Maybe he's taking a break from all the walking, and is simply staring at the passerby. Or maybe he's in the middle of a particular shop, whether it's looking at textbooks, school supplies, brooms, or something else entirely. You might both bump into each other, because someone's not looking where they're going.

Or it could be something completely different still. ]

[Fef has a habit of getting distracted easily and isn't watching where she is going and walks straiiiight into him.]

oh-! Hey i am sorry!!

Are you ok?

[strongjumps]

[ He's going to groan a bit, because he was watching where he was going, and collisions are always inconvenient. ]

I am fine.

[ He gives her a bit of a look though, because... ]

You look familiar. Which year are you now?

[bubblingover]

[Fef still feels bad for dumping into him, she is usually better than this, but with the huge crowds and so many things to look at, its hard not to get distracted.]

I am still very sorry!!

[She gives him a look back.]

So do you, I am Fourth year! Which house are you in?

[strongjumps]

Slytherin, Fourth year.

[ The look becomes a bit less scrutinizing, but he's not relenting quite yet. ]

I assume we had a class or two together over the years?

[bubblingover]

Oh! I see, well i am in Hufflepuff!

Are you friends with Eridan, by any chance?

[Although, that boy doesn't seem to make a lot of friends, he might not at least be a enemy with this boy.]

We probably have! I wouldn't be suprized, but i guess we just haven't had the chance to talk until now!

[strongjumps]

[ Silently judging the Hufflepuff just a smidge. ]

I would not say I am "friends" with Eridan. I tolerate him.

[ On a good day. ]

The classes can be rather large.

[ And filled with people from inferior houses. ]

[moveslikejaeger]

[Oh, they run into each other all right, but not because someone wasn't looking where they were going. Maxim simply spotted Equius from across the street and decided to say hi.]

[Which in Jaeger translates to forcefully tackling Equius from behind and clinging to his back]

HI!

[strongjumps]

[ Equius is nowhere near as enthusiastic. In fact, getting tackled from behind by something didn't exactly make him feel docile.

So Maxim is going to be met with a punch somewhat clumsily thrown in the space behind him, followed by some thrashing about in an attempt to shake the thing off.

Welp. ]
