Confused/torn is exactly what I'm going for. I mean, not what I'm going for, but that's probably where Kittu is headed.

See, it was recently suggested to Kittu (playfully, mind) that he should find himself a girlfriend. Immediately he tried to flirt with the sixth year girl who brought it up, but she said she'd snog him the day he made prefect (which is a day which will never come for Kittu, unless terrible things happen to every single other Hufflepuff in his year).

So Kittu's setting his sights on daedals (and other littles) instead. Claudia is nicest when alone, so he seems to have singled her out (also, she was the one who'd posted to History of Magic...).

Thing is, he doesn't mind flirting shamelessly with older students because he's 99.9% sure that they won't take him seriously. He can say the most ridiculous, flirtatious things to them and then both parties can laugh it off. If an older girl actually took him up on an offer to snog, he'd start blushing and then hurriedly make a stupid excuse to get the heck out of there. This is not going to work well with girls his own age. If Claudia were to show even the simplest sign of returning Kittu's flirtation, something in his brain would scream "Retreat! Retreat!" Additionally? He's not going to flirt exclusively. He's pretty much tease anything wearing a skirt. So, basically, flirting with a daedel is likely not to end well for him. He's flirting with danger for the thrill, not for the goal, but that's always been his favorite game.

Um, you can ignore that last sentence. That makes Kittu sound a lot cooler than he actually is.
