'You and Pansy are... ' Blaise trailed off. Finally, he settled on, 'Different. '

Dazai shrugged him off. 'She 's extorting me. '

'...Okay. Don 't have too much fun. '

There was a reason he liked Blaise most of all. He seemed to be the only person here with an inkling that Dazai knew what he was doing. Gripping the railing tightly when the stairs began to rotate, Dazai turned an innocent glance towards Blaise. 'Hey, what 's the best way to prove you 're loyal? '

He blinked. 'Loyalty is a Hufflepuff thing, isn 't it? Why don 't you ask one of 'them. '

'Because 'you 're here, and I don 't know any Hufflepuffs? '

'Meet one. I 'm going back to the dorms 'are you coming? '

Dazai thought for a moment. 'Not yet. '

'I 'm not coming to find you when you get lost. '

'

If

I get lost. '

Blaise quirked a brow.

'Don 't give me that '

Oh!

Look, I 'll be fine. Hermione will escort me. '
