kay finds a smile on his lips at the sight of the ravenclaw, setting down his book in favor of his friend’s presence. “i don’t think so, but you’ll probably stand out more if you don’t dress up,” he thinks that’s what clement’s after anyway. “i’m not putting very much effort into my own costume, so don’t feel pressured.” kay can see him as many things, but he isn’t sure if he’ll be willing to accept most of them. “we can come up with something together, if you’d like.”
the thought of standing out among hogwarts’ mass of colorful characters is daunting; clement leaves the spotlight to others and is content to live his life out in the background, just one bland and ordinary face in a sea of many. “you’re right,” he says, rubbing his chin in thought. “what are you going as?” he has a higher opinion of kay than of some of his peers and trusts his ideas won’t be... trashy. hopefully his faith in the man isn’t misplaced. “i wouldn’t mind. as long as it isn’t something sexy, like a...” what’s a suitable example? “sexy... troll...” that sounds about right.
