Toby was the epitome of adorable today. He was sitting in the feasting hall, his legs swinging in a happy way (his feet didn't quite reach the floor yet). He was happily contemplating having a cupcake, when he realized that the only cupcakes were at the far end of the hall. He frowned cutely, as he concentrated on a solution to his problem. He didn't want to walk all the way over there, he was something of a klutz, and he knew he'd trip, or drop it on someone, and that wouldn't be good. Also, the table of Slytherins didn't look particularly friendly. He didn't want to walk past them twice.
Well, he could do magic, right? couldn't he just levitate the thing over? He pulled out his wand, willing himself to remember the levitation charm Felix had shown him. He said it, and the biggest cupcake began floating towards him. He smiled, he was really doing it! Then, just as it was over the Slytherin table, it began to wobble. Oh no! he panicked, and the pastry fell, landing on the head of a particularly scary looking Slytherin. Oops. Toby put his wand away quickly, and stared at the table, knowing that if he looked up, the boy would see the guilt on his face.

(heh, WAFFLE!!)
Shaonious Clearwater entered the feasting hall. His dark hair was a mess, falling over his face in an awkward manner. He yawned quietly, taking his seat at the Slytherin table. Smiling weakly across the table, he rested his head on his palms.
He was already in a bad mood, he couldn't remember anything of what had happened last night. He knew those he were closest to had been there, Gwen and Aeris-but the night was a blur.
Sighing softly, he slumped against the table-wanting as much as anything to be able to fall asleep. He closed his eyes, supressing the urge to attack those who were speaking loudly around him. On a normal day, Shadow would have hexed them by now. He was too pissed to do anything.
Yelping as something soft fell onto his head, he snarled. Slamming his fists against the table in rage, he stood up-reaching his hands unpon his head as he did so. He examined the substance against his pale skin, Cupcake?
All the more reason to be angry
Cursing loudly, he swung around, pointing his wand in fury. His blue eyes flared as he scanned the hall for the victim. "Show yourself brat!" he snarled. Catching sight of a small movement, his cold glare fixed on the Hufflepuff table. He could have just been blaming them for his problems, but he suspected one of them anyway. He loathed Hufflepuff more than any other house, they would have done well to stay clear of him.
Clenching his fists, he stode towards the table. He quickly picked out a small boy, he would do for a while. Yet, he needed to be sure it was a Hufflepuff's fault first. "Tell me this wasn't you...." His voice was quiet and soft, a trick he had learned well when angered.

Toby looked up, his eyes about four times their normal size. This guy looked Mad, with a capital 'M'. His brain kinda froze as his mouth got stuck on autopilot again. "I'm s-soooo s-sorry. I-I didn't m-mean it. It w-was an accident. I was p-practicing a l-levitation ch-charm and I lost c-control. I'm r-really, r-really s-s-sorry." he stuttered. He hoped this guy wouldn't be really mad at him. He should have just walked over and got the stupid cupcake.

Shadow snarled. So it was a Hufflepuff. Taking hold of the scruff of the Hufflepuff's robe, he held him from the ground. He growled softly, pulling some of the food from his hair with his free hand. He laughed angrily, "Oh, your sorry? That makes it all better," he rolled his eyes.
"Well, I guess you still want your cupcake...Eat it brat!" he snarled, throwing the small kid to the floor and pointing at the mush he had knocked from his hair.
After her morning routine Gwen walked into the Dinning Hall and sat down at the Slytherin table. As she sipped on her pumkin juice she noticed a cupcake appear on Shadow's head. Seeing his reaction she sighed rolling her eyes.
I feel bad for the kid that got that cupcake in his hair she thought to herself as she watched Shadow pick up a first year Hufflepuff. The kid was kind of adorable in the whole 'I'm so short' kind of way. She listened as the kid tried to applogize, which seemed to get her Slytherin buddy even more pissed.
The dark haired girl stood up and walked calmly over to Shadow and the kid as the first year was thrown to the ground. "Shadow, what the hell are you thinking, he's a little kid for crying out loud!," she spoke in an eeriely calm voice. Looking down at the kid she bent down next to him. "You alight kid?" she asked as her tone changed from 'about to kill something' to a more maternal nature.

Toby was in tears. How had things gone so horribly wrong? He was taught that if someone apologizes and means it, you're supposed to forgive them, no matter how mad you are, but maybe this guy didn't get the same lessons. He just kept repeating, "Im sorry, I'm sorry." through his tears over and over until an older girl bent down next to him. Without really thinking about it he wrapped his arms around her and finished sobbing on her shoulder.
When he'd gotten control of himself, he let go of her, wiped his eyes on his sleeve, and managed to say, "Y-yeah, I'll be okay. Thank you. I'm sorry about crying on you though." except for the slight stutter at the begining, his voice came out even. "Is your friend okay? I mean, he seemed pretty mad. I know I dropped a cupcake on him on accident, but he seemed pretty mad before that. Is he okay?"
The young slytherins eyes widdened when she saw the kid start crying on her. After he applogized she gave him a small smile. "Um don't worry about it, it's only water," she shrugged. Looking back at Shadow, she shook her head. "I don't know what's wrong with him, but I'm personally guessing lack of sleep," she whispered into the young boy's ear so Shadow couldn't overhear and get even madder.
Stading up and dusting herself off, Gwen looked down at the Hufflepuff hloding her hand out to him. "So kid, what's your name?" she asked as she looked at the cupcake out of the corner of her eye.

"My name is Toby." He said, using Gwen's outstretched hand to help himself up. He wanted Bun-bun, but he'd left the toy in his dorm room, afraid that someone might think it odd for a boy to carry a stuffed, pink bunny. "What's your name?" he asked.

Shad's eyes widdened as he was confronted by Gwen. He snarled sarcasticly, "Oh, very supportive Gwen." He didn't mean to be like this, he was just in a bad mood. And this kid had made it worse.
Why the hell is she taking his side over mine? He's a HufflePuff and a freaking kid, he means nothing...
"Why do you care so much about him anyway?" he snapped, listening to her tone of voice as she spoke to the kid. He rolled his eyes, ridding himself of cupcake with a silent spell. "Yeesh! Just adopt him already, make you both happy..."
Slumping in Toby's vaccant seat, he sighed quietly. Pulling the yellow/black encrusted locket from around his nec, he fingered it thoughtfully. Why couldn't she see why he was so pissed at this kid? He hadn't told her why he loathed Hufflepuff but still!
Staring glumly at the ground, he was prepared to apologise to them. But looking up at the 'adorable' guy, he could feel his rage growing and decided against it.
After Toby had asked her for her name, she sighed inwardly. "Gwen," she muttered as she took her hand back and shoved it into her robe pocket.
After Shadow's sarcastic statements, Gwen glared at him out of the corner of her eye. "Alight, for starters, stop being such an ass. I have no clue why you're so pissed, but don't take it out on us," she snapped harshly at him. "We did nothing to you," she sighed as she calmed down slightly. "Second of all, it's a stupid freaking cupcake for crying out loud. You will live," she stated as she shot Shadow a 'We'll talk about this later' look.
Why does he have to be such an ass she thought to herself as she shook her head and started to make her way back to her seat at the Slytherin table. After about three steps, she stop and turned to Toby. "It's best if you work on that spell kid," she suggested. "That way we don't have another one of these incidents," she sighed as she resumed walking back.

Whimpering at her harsh words, Shadow sank back in the seat. His eyes wide, staring at the red orbs in a split second of distraugt. Her words stung, not for what she said-but just because it was her who spoke them. And then, the look she gave him...
Thrusting his head into his hands as she began walking away. He snarled softly, groaning at the mess he'd caused himself. The kid hadn't really done anything wrong, she was right, yet, he hated to admit it. He'd made it worse, same as always. But her words hurt either way. '...stop being such an ass. I have no clue why you're so pissed, but don't take it out on us'
For a fleeting moment, the dark memory had shrouded his thoughts. His mother, she'd spoke those words when his father had returned late-seething to abuse. A day later, his father had murdered her. Was this going to end up the same? That they were all in some sick roleplay, where himself and Gwen were guardians of this Toby-kid?
Sighing, he shook his head and stood up. Looking down at Toby, he ran his hand through his mess of black hair. "I guess I should apologise kid....it was an accident." He shot him a quick rare smile before turning his head towards Gwen. I'm gonna end up losing her again...

"Tha's okay. My big brother Jake gets mad at me for being a klutz sometimes too. He's not strong like you, though. He couldn't pick me up like you did. Maybe someday I'll be strong like you, that'd be great. I hate being so short and small. Everyone always thinks I'm way younger than I am. That girl called you Shadow. That name is much better than Toby, I think. But maybe I shouldn't talk so much. What do you think?" chattered Toby as he regained his seat, still cupcakeless.

(sorry i forgot to check xDD )
Shadow's eyebrows raised in confusion as the kid chattered on. He grinned slightly, "You know, maybe you should learn to shut up. Personally I hate it, but you shouldn't be offended by what I say. Look, you just need to focus, watch." He paused, drawing his own wand and silently summoning another cupcake. It fell softly infront of Toby. "See?.......'ang on."
He turned, sprinting after Gwen and grasping her wrist tight. He knew he would be a rubbish guardian, to anyone. His anger got too over active. He smiled coyly through embarassment, "I've disappointed you..." he dropped his head glumly.
After resuming reading while sipping pumpkin juice, she felt someone take a tight hold of her wrist. Smirking to herself, she turned around and looked up at Shadow with soft eyes. "Shadow, let's not worry about this now, we can talk about this later when there isn't such a huge crowd around," she sighed in a quiet monotone as she reached up to stroke his cheek.
She wasn't that mad at him, just slightly upset about his actions. If he was going to be this short tempered all the time, she was slightly afraid of how he would act if something more serious came around.

"Oh, okay," he muttered softly. He smiled weakly, and looked back at Toby. Shadow supressed a moan as she stroked his cheek.
God, Im gonna end up like Regulus... Regulus as in his father, but he had disowned himself from the clearwater blood line. He would be a crap father, a guardian or anything in fact to do with kids. Shadow doubted he should be allowed near anyone.
