Tom was surprised at the rather Slytherin line of thinking coming from the seemingly oblivious boy. It was then that he remembered Abraxas saying they were escaping the war on the mainland, thinking like this was probably necessary to survive. Harrison Evan Morin and, to a lesser extent, his twin, were quite intriguing indeed. Pollux looked appeased, though his sneer did not disappear fully. Eventually the Prefects, Tom and Abraxas, had to go patrol, leaving the twins with Pollux and Phineas. Pollux didn’t seem up to speaking to them again after the genetics comment, and Phineas seemed to generally be a quiet person, so the four of them distracted themselves. The twins chatted in French for a bit before both pulling out books, Pollux was writing something in some journal or another, and Phineas had fallen asleep whilst watching the scenery out the window flash by.
