Allen himself loved reading and he found the best people did as well. His smiled widened, "And yet,"he motioned to her tie and crest colors, "Hufflepuff? Seems the 'Claws are usually the nose-in-a-book types." He mused lightheartedly. A thought struck him, perhaps Jane also felt she was sorted wrongly. An interest sparked in the boy at the possibility, however slight. ¦¦

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ¦¦ Allen had not been quite able to read that anger with seemed to blossom in the pretty girl, he was an idiot when it came to observing other's emotions. Instead, he pressed on, "I felt cheated too at first. I agree though, I guess I sort of got used to the idea, but that is probably only because i spend most time around other Houses. Guess i got used to it but it hasn't really sunk in...does that make any sense?" He laughed awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck, fee;ling foolish. He was normally quite composed and the things he wanted to say flowed well, but Jane was making it hard and Allen could not pinpoint why. "Which House were you hoping for?" he asked, quickly regretting it and hoping it wasn't too personally. His heart beat a bit faster and he bit his lip as she began to answer. ¦¦

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ¦¦ Allen smiled delightedly at her, "You would have made a great Ravenclaw, you really -" he caught himself and blinked, smile slipping when he realized he barely knew the girl. Why was he so enthusiastic any time he was able to offer his two cents? A heat on his face began to creep and his bright smile turned into a sheepish one, "- would have."he mumbled in awkward ending. Desperately grasping to her question as a diversion from his own feeling of embarrassment, he answered her in a hastier tone that he normally would have. "Was hoping for Gryffindor. I thought i would have fit in quite well, so did my dad." Thoughts of how Allen's constant rule-breaking and adventure-seeking were his father's main reasons for the opinion, the boy chuckled, "Slytherin also seemed like an option. Though, I don't think the crowd would have served me." ¦¦

Johnson
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ¦¦ Normally, this information would not have been new or even surprising to Allen; having Muggle parents was quite common in the Wizarding world. Pure bloods and halfbloods were not unusual, but they were dwindling. Their magical ability was genetic and understandable, it was the Muggleborns that were the most interesting. Coming from usually magic-free families and still possessing the skill. Allen thought it was amazing and incredible, he thought it ought to be something to be proud of. Something to take as a victory in evolution. But, what had surprised Allen was not this information but the way it was presented to him. Jane looked ashamed. Embarrassed and almost afraid at telling him this. Any signs of a smile slipped from his face and his eyes grew concerned. He could guess at what was causing her to feel this way to her heritage. It was not after coming to Hogwarts that he had his first experience of Pureblod-supremacists. "Mine are too!" he cried out. It was sudden, he was even shocked himself at the outburst. Normally, he would never even think of disclosing this fact to anyone. But, Jane needed the comfort. His conscience knew that better than his body and he felt no regret for saying it. He offered her a wavering smile, "I am Muggle born. And... and there is nothing wrong with it." In his last statement Allen locked his dark eyes were hers and offered his comforting words in all seriousness. He didn't want her hurting. He wanted to help. ¦¦

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ¦¦ The Hufflepuff jumped in confusion at her sudden dash away from him. His immediate concerns swirled his mind and practically covered his eyes for the second as she sped further away. Had he hurt her? Was he causing her to panic or hurt? But then the wool returned his sight and he realized it wasn't him, and even if it was, he had to follow and help Jane. "Jane, Jane! Jane, please wait! tell me what is going on!" He bound after her with clumsy speed, legs twisting in the suddenness of his motion, but soon, he was one her tail. Following suit. ¦¦
