[ William doesn't say much on their walk back to the castle. Nor does he follow along behind Grell when they enter the dining hall. Instead he takes his usual spot towards the back end of the Slytherin table where not many others crowd. ]

[untodeath]

[ Grell is surprised by his sudden disappearance, without a word-- well, momentarily. It does seem like something he would do, upon thinking on it.

It won't be long that he sits alone, though. After all, Ann sits at the same table, and he's easy enough to spot. ]

Don't do that. Leaving without a word is just strange, you know. And rude.

[ She's setting down a plate for Ann, which the other redhead had made prior to them arriving. Surprisingly, she places it so that the lady may sit between them. ]

[spiderlilies]

Especially when I got the both of you presents.

[ Daintily sitting herself down, the manner in which she dumps William's 'gift' onto his plate is quite aggressive, by contrast! It's an oversized baggie of chocolate chip cookies, tied off with a bow. ]

Someone mentioned that you have a very particular palette, and I may have felt sorry for the two of you, stuck back here today.

[death_glare]

[ He sighs as they approach. He should have foreseen this, really. ]

I was leaving you to be with Angelina. Though, I see I should have just followed along.

[ Blinking at the bag suddenly dropped on his empty dinner plate, he looks to Ann. ]

Ah. You didn't have to do this.

[ The bag is opened and its contents inspected. Normal look and smell, good. He takes one out to save for after dinner. ]

Thank you, I suppose.

[spiderlilies]

[ Seemingly appeased by the gratitude, however suspicious he may have been, she closing her eyes with a nod, smiling. ]

Just one? That's for you. All of it.

[untodeath]

So thoughtful~♥

[ Grell slips an arm around the other redhead's waist, pressing a kiss to her temple. ]

Is my present a kiss~? [ Kyaa. ]

[death_glare]

For now, yes. I'd like them to last a bit.

[ Though once Grell starts getting snuggly with Ann, William turns his attention to the food that appears before them, not saying another word.

[spiderlilies]

[ Ann bops Grell's nose with a finger. ]

Please, dear. Those are free.

[ Not that she's going to give her one, just yet! ]

But I'm glad you're so easy to impress!

[ Picking up her bag to place on her lap, she opens the flap and gestures for Grell to peek inside. There's a bundle of vials, tied together to keep them from clamouring around. ]

Invisibility potions. You'll come visit me more often now. [ She peeks over at William. ] And William, too, I suppose. [ Wink. ]

[untodeath]

[ Grell gasps in awe! ]

That's just brilliant, Ann--!

[death_glare]

You can't go sneaking into our dorm.

[ His voice is stern and reprimanding but still low enough in volume so no one around them will hear. ]

[spiderlilies]

[ Gaze slowly returning to William, Ann raises a brow before rolling her eyes with a sigh. ]

Alright, just me, then.

[untodeath]

Oh, come on, Will.

[ Leaning over, she temporarily props her chin atop Ann's head so she can give the boy a proper frowny pout. ]

Don't you just want to be a little bad, once in a while? Tonight, for example-- didn't sneaking off feel good?

[death_glare]

[ Huff. ]

I meant that you won't be able to do much once you're there. People are always around. What are you expecting to do when you can't show yourself in the common room...or bedrooms.

[untodeath]

Oh?

[ Grell sits back to look at Ann with a contemplative hum, but shakes her head confidently! ]

You can't think of anywhere to get have some fun for a couple hours?

[spiderlilies]

[ Propping her knuckles under her chin, she hums as well! ]

Where might you suggest, as an alternative, William?

[death_glare]

Whatever sort of "fun" you two have in mind, keep it between yourselves. I'm sure you can find a closet somewhere.

[ Flustered again, he pushes his glasses up and refocuses on his plate. ]

[spiderlilies]

[ Ann covers her mouth with a snicker, looking to Grell. ]

You're right, it is a bit adorable when he does that.

[untodeath]

[ Laughing, Grell grabs her hand! ]

Right? [ And then she's mimicking him, pushing up her own glasses with an exaggerated flustered huff, to which they both erupt in laughter again. ]

[death_glare]

[ More than irritated, but taking it far more seriously than it should be, William takes up his plate and makes to move elsewhere in the dining hall. ]

[spiderlilies]

[ Hearing him doing so, Ann peeks over at him-- and immediately slips her hands about his upper arm, urging him to stay put. ]

Oh, don't be like that! Lighten up, darling.

[untodeath]

I didn't mean for it to hurt your feelings.

[ Grell all too easily slips free from her spot at the bench to slip her arms over his shoulders and give him the briefest of hugs! ]

Just a bit of fun, is all! We love it.

[ And she places a kiss upon the top of his damp locks! ]

[death_glare]

[ William freezes as he's in quite the predicament now. While he wouldn't shove Angelina off of him, he'd have now qualms with doing so to Grell. However, the two of them clung to him, as well as the tray of food threatening to spill keeps him from moving much.

Oh, and did Grell just kiss him?? ]

Will you both let go of me. If you're trying to convince me to stay, this isn't working.

[untodeath]

[ Grell huffs in the poutiest of ways! ]

Come now, Will. What's there to be upset about?

[spiderlilies]

[ Ann pats that arm with a shake of the head. ]

We're only trying to include you, you realise.

[death_glare]

That doesn't mean you have to latch on to me. At least respect my personal space.

[ He shimmies his shoulders in an attempt to get them to let go. ]
