He chuckles looking around at all the owls in their cages. "Wonder what happen if I did this?" He mutters to himself sticking his finger into the cage. He gently strokes one of the nearby owls,"I'm gonna name you Poke." He chuckles.

"Careful that he doesn't bite your finger off," I call to some guy moronically sticking his finger in a cage.

"Er..didn't think about that." He mutters pulling his finger back,"Really gotta think about my actions before I do 'em." He chuckles.

"Yeah, maybe," I say dryly. "What are you? Twenty? Or five?" I shake my head and smile slightly, looking around for some owl treats.

"Haha nope, 22." He grins, looking back at all the owls."Man, I never had an owl, mine all flew away." He chuckles.

"I wonder why," I say with raised eyebrows, then smile again. "I don't have one either... but a lot of the school owls like me. I'm seriously considering asking for an appointment with the headmaster to see if I can buy one of them."

"Ah, well I can live with that," I nod. "Hm... Arden Patricks, by the way. I'm a coward and an idiot but also not a git." I smile self-deprecatingly as I recite my usual reason for being a Hufflepuff.

"Especially random strangers, perhaps.... I mean at least your family and friends have a context for your behavior. To the rest of us you really look like an idiot." I grin again and look around the shop. "Don't mind me... too cheerful today," I shrug.

"Sixth..." I say, examining a sort of rope ladder laced with treats. Weird.... "You got any younger siblings still at Hogwarts?" I ask him.

"Aw, I rememeber when I was a sixth year," He grins,"Good times, beat my best mate in the Qudditch House cup," He smiles proudly,"Nah, I'm the youngest out of my siblings, but my baby cousin is still a student here, seventh year Gryffindor, like the rest of us."

"Eh, she didn't do anything," I shrug. "I think I just annoyed her... and apparently I eavesdropped. But I was pretty annoying at the time, so I don't blame her for disliking me." Then I grin. "Yeah, guess so... except that I have sense enough not to let owls bite my fingers off."

I raise my eyebrows and laugh. "That's a bit of an overreaction... shooting yourself means you die, right? Having sucky family doesn't mean you need to die...especially if he's also your best mate."

I laugh a little sadly. "Yeah, good question," I shrug. "My best friend was a psycho always playing around with the Dark Arts and threatening to kill my cat... but I always forgive him as soon as I looked at him again. Why the hell is that?"

"Well, yeah, you are at least." I laugh. "But yeah... the sorting hat told me that I value my friends over life, good sense, and... and something else, but I can never remember what it was." I shrug. "So how did you get to be friends then, if you despise each other so much?"
