Startled by her sudden outburst, he instinctively wheeled to face the direction the vociferation was sonorously emitted from as if he were a defensive animal. The consternation, however, was short-lived and soon fell away as his logic pieced together the scene. As she accused him of who he was, his sable eyebrows furrowed almost quizzically, but more or less cogitatingly. Seeming perfectly insane, he retorted blandly and in obvious resign, emerald green, peridot flecked eyes rising to meet her's as his "realization" of sorts hit, "Yeah. I am, aren't I?" However more his more recent life had made him additionally callous and weathered, wise, even, and his ephemeral, sometimes irascible temper was the verbal lambastement of others who managed to excite a nerve or so into the practice, when his aggression pacified, he knew he shouldn't be putting people to fault for being naive because they couldn't help it. Doing so would be naive of him. When she had approached him again, he was mellowed considerably, as she had put thoughts of Hermione into his lonely brain and that had cut him to the quick. The masculine phenomenon offered a fleeting but genuine smile to her when he noticed how devastated she was, but it was barely detectable. His soul searching eyes bore into her turquoise ones indecisively for a moment, but then he spoke. "Stop whimpering. I forgive you. To err is human, but I'd appreciate it if you told me you wouldn't approach anymore random Hogwarts students like you did me. I don't think they'd appreciate it very much, because I didn't." Perhaps he was too clementful on subjects such as she, but bestowing mercy upon all his enemies but one was a task he could accomplish. That didn't mean it wasn't an ornerous task, but it meant he could accomplish it.

Everything changes, nothing remains without change-Buddha -- Celeste Riecburg, 08:30:44 05/12/02 Sun
Celeste smiled, so happy her mouth hadn't gotten her into trouble again. She put one hand up, palm facing him, as if swearing, "On my honor, no more," she said solemnly. "I'm Celeste by the way, Celeste Riecburg," she smiled, pulling her hair off her shoulder and back behind her. "Listen, to thoroughly make it up to you, if you need any help or anything, like school work...I mean I'll do what I can, or if someone is bothering you...just say the word. Don't be afraid to ask, OK?" she offered. Celeste could be nice, whenever she felt it was needed, and now it wasn't definatley needed. What if ended up saving this whole school one day? What if he ended up saving..her? She hadn't been in any particular danger...but there were so many 'and's' and 'what if's' in life, you should put nothing like this to chance.
