Breakfast Foods. [ OPEN ]

[Tadd Levingstein]

Tadd sat along the long mahogany Gryffindor table filling his plate with foods of all sorts.
Eggs, toast, muffins, ham, bacon, oranges, apples jellies and jams, waffles, pancakes, fried potatoes, and hashbrowns lined his brightly painted plate. He reached for a fork to dig in, and decided to sip his pumpkin jiuce instead. He closed his eyes loving the taste on his lips, and thinking.

He told himself not to worry about his brother, or Sylvia and Pheonix's hate for him. But couldn't.
He told himself not to worry about Emmie, and how he had surely hurt her. But it banged through his mind.
He told himself not to worry about meeting her family either. He could probably charm them.
But Tadd had lost confindence in the past few days, and needed a friend outside of this drama.

He bit into a chocolate muffin and looked around. Then he heard a voice and looked up at them.

[Tristan McGadey]

Tristan had seen the boy sitting at the table alone. He new the boy to be one of Taryn's friends, named Tadd. Tristan would have sat alone as well but instead decided to accompany the boy, for he seemed troubled by something. Tristan walked over to where he was sitting, hoping to cheer him up a little. "Hello mate, d'ya mind if Ah sit here?" he asked pointing to the spot directly opposite him.

[Tadd Levingstein]

Tadd smiled and nodded, and pointed to the seat.
"Yeah, go ahead. You're Taryn's brother right? " Tadd pushed away his plate, and took a sip of his pumpkin juice again.

[Tristan McGadey]

"Ahhh, so Ah see you've heard of meh then? Ah don' think Ah've had the pleasure," he said offering his hand across the table, taking a chocolate chip muffin with the other. "The name's Tristan," he said taking a bite out of the muffin.

[Tadd Levingstein]

Tadd shook his hand and took a bite of eggs.
"I'm Tadd. Tadd Levingstein." He looked around not knwoing what to say next.

[Tristan McGadey]

Tristan sat there for a few moments sizing Tadd up, as if he was trying to make up his mind about something. Tristan made no other movements except for taking an occasional bite of his muffin, chewing slowly, just staring at Tadd. Seeming to make up his mind, Tristan swallowed the last of his muffin, and as he took another, he asked, "So wha's wrong, mate?" His left eyebrow rose slightly, from both curiousity and concern for Tadd's well-being.

[Tadd Levingstein]

"It's complicated." He said huffing, trying not to sound like a baby.
"My brother got himself into, some, well some sort of trouble. That involved me, and my girlfriend? and her cousin, and her cousin's boyfriend, and another friend of them. Well you've probably heard the story, because its around school, and everywhere I turn people are out to get my brother. It's just been bothering me. It got into such a big thing."
Tadd sliced into a large sausage and gobbled it down pausing.
" It's just whereing me out. Stupid stuff. I shouldn't worry about it."

[Tristan McGadey]

Tristan sat quietly taking bites of his muffin every few moments as he listened to Tadd's story. After Tadd had finished, Tristan spoke. "Ah actually don't know as much as you'd think. Ah don' get out much. But that sounds like a lot to worry about. If it makes you feel any better.....Ah'm on your side. Ah see no reason ta hate you, especially about somethin' tha' wasn't your fault ta' begin with. But Ah swear ta you right now, Ah'll do anything Ah can to help you out. With somethin' as big as this, et's good to have friends that'll stand by you, and Ah'll do that. Trust meh, Ah've been in some tight spots like this more than once, and Ah wish Ah had someone tha' had been there for meh.." Tristan smiled at Tadd and winked. "But Ah'd say tha' you have just cause to be a litle worried. But you may be righ'. Et's never good to dwell on things like these. Either way, jus' know tha' you're not alone," he said smiling at Tadd. Tristan then grabbed a plate and began, filing it with eggs, sausage, and biscuits lathered in gravy.

[Tadd Levingstein]

"Well since you haven't heard I might as well tell you. Because if you think you're on my side now, you might change your mind."
Tadd took another bite and finished before saying.
"My brothers a werewolf, he was bitten when he was really little, and still can not control his actions, and usually doesn't take his wolfsbane, because elder wizards have told him the only way to control it is to face it. And our family is health consious about potions, we try our hardest not to take them. So he was wandering around in the Forbidden Forest. Because yah know, its Forbidden so student s shouldn't wandering around in it. But of course a few were, and Josh attacked them. He bit Pheonix Aster and scratched up Sylvia, a slytherin. So yeah. Thanks though. That would be nice."

[Tristan McGadey]

Tristan listened to Tadd's story intently intrigued, but otherwise showing no emotion. After Tadd had finished his story, Tristan said, "Wow. Tha' IS a lot ta' be worried about, mate!" Knowing that this probably wasn't the best way of making anyone feel better, he then said, "But et doesn' change mah mind. You were righ' when you said tha' student's should nay have been near tha' Forbidden forest. Et's not your fault this happened. An' you shouldn' blame yourself for et. If your friends love you, as Ah'm sure they do, then they'll coom back ta' you. But in the meantime.....all you can do is be there for your broother. Try ta' talk some since into him. Ah can understan' not wantin' to take potions and wha' not, for Ah don' like to either, but if Ah may say, et seems more logical for somethin' ta' happen to him in trying ta' fix et, than having something happen to an innocent person by him not." Tristan gave a small smile to the boy. "Look, mate. If Ah were you, Ah'd try mah best ta' enjoy the time tha' you have here. Take a look at the world outide o' these walls. Et's chaos, mah friend, trust meh, Ah've lived et. Enjoy every moment, and cherrish every memory, for life doesn' get any easier out there," he said pointing to a large window. "Ah don' know the extent of all of your problems, an' Ah'm not claiming to, but et seems ta' meh tha' your assumin' that your friends don' trust you anymore. Ah'm not so sure tha's the case. They may be a little shaken oop, but tha's understandable. Give them another chance. You owe them that. Ah think ye'd be suprised at how much they love you." Tristan smiled again, this time broader. "But in the mean time.....how about these suasages, eh?" he said laughing as he dug into his plate with relish.

[Tadd Levingstein]

"Well thanks then, and you're probably right." Tadd bit into a sausage.
"Yeah these have to be the best I've had in a while."

[Emmie Damselfly]

((would it be bad if Em. joined. you can say no, no feelings hurt))

[Tristan McGadey]

((NEVER!!!!)) .....((haha, just kidding. I dont care but it's Tadd's thread. Personally I really dont know where else I'm going to go with this....))

[Emmie Damselfly]

((JERK!!! May it shnow on your head!!! I am leaving it up to Tadd to decide so there))

[Tristan McGadey]

Tristan looked up at Tadd from his plate and smiled again. "No worries mate. People need friends, or at least someone, there for them during their hardest times more than any other. Ah didn' mean ta' make a speech out o' all tha' though," he said. "So, sorry for that." He smiled apologetically once more. "Et's jus' Ah've been through a lot mahself." He resumed eating his eggs, with gusto
