[So. This guy. This guy right here has been worried about Dirk ever since he found out that Dirk was hurt at camp. He hasn't had the opportunity to see him until now. He ends up passing by Dirk's compartment as he walks through the train, trying to occupy himself. When he sees Dirk, he rushes into the compartment faster that he's usually capable of moving.

It's really fortunate that he manages to avoid tripping over himself, but he does.

He throws his arms around Dirk and squeezes him in pretty much the biggest hug ever.]

I'm so glad that you're okay, and not hurt! Or, uh, worse! I was, really worried!

_{[He's completely surprised when Tavros is just there out of no where! He had been so caught up in the window he didn't notice. After a bit of squirming, he turned around and returned the hug. It feels like he hasn't seen Tavros and ages, so he's really happy to see him.]}

You shouldn't have worried. I told you I was okay.

[bluhbluhhugestairs]

Uh... Well, I wasn't sure if I believed you or not, on account of you sounded, um, not like like yourself. Which is, uh, happy and stuff. But you look okay to me, so...

[He gives him one last squeeze before pulling away, smiling a very relieved smile.]

<sub>[He just really doesn't want to talk about it. He'd like to pretend it didn't happen. It's not so much as he got hurt physically that's bothering him. It's mostly the ego burn and the shame associated with in failing to protect Roxy that bugs him.]

Don't worry, yo. How've you been?</sub>

[Meanwhile, Tavros ran away after cutting out one of his friend's eyes. So... He definitely doesn't wanna talk about it either. He naively believes Dirk's okay now, upon seeing for himself.]

Okay, for the most part, I guess. I'm really excited to, um, be going back to school.

[givesyouaboner]

Yeah. Same. Except, yanno, start. I can't wait to find out what house I get in.

[bluhbluhhugestairs]

Pffft... As if anyone, uh, as cool as the two of us, would ever get a house that isn't Gryffindor...

Uh, which is to say that, I totally think you will get into Gryffindor, I mean.

[givesyouaboner]

I really really hope I do. All of the most awesome people are already there.
