*Can also be found prowling the grounds after hours, apparently intent upon his very own 'patrol' of sorts... Though perhaps getting a bit closer to the Dungeons than he should 'rightfully' be...*
*hears and senses a familiar presence nearby, and perks up slightly, pausing in hesitation before forgoing whatever he had previously been intent upon in favor of wandering over to see what Gai is up to*
*is only human, but picks up on Paul's presence very quickly, turning as swiftly and silently as a cat, on guard until he sees who it is*
Ah, Paul... out for an evening stroll, I see. *danger and irony in his eyes: absurd as he may be sometimes, he's every inch the fighter while on patrol*
*pauses mid-step, quirks one eyebrow briefly in a quizzical way at Gai, it never would stop amazing Paul to see people pull off things he wouldn't think them capable of... Though he's starting to reconsider his previous opinions of Gai every time he meets him*
Mmm... You could say that... *slight shrug, flashes a brief smirk at the other* Figured I have little else to do with my night hours... Might as well make sure all the kiddies are 'playing nice'... Or not straying from their common rooms after hours...
*regards the other's stance and demeanor* ... I take it you were checking on similar things..?
*well, he'll have a long time to get used to the amazing, infinite variety of the human condition*
*..though if there's anyone who lives outside the box, it's Gai....*
True... or at least to be alert and on hand if someone starts screaming....
*nods, tilts head* I've decided to resume patrolling the school after hours, as I did during my first year of training as an Auror candidate. Halls, wards, locks... the usual things. *not to mention all the hidey-holes he remembers from his years as a student.
Pretty much... Or anything of the sort, naturally...
*blinks, shrugs* That's probably a good idea, 's not like this place couldn't benefit from more 'n a few Teachers wandering the halls after hours... *Though Paul makes a mental note to remember he won't always be the only one awake and wandering the halls at night. It wouldn't do to have anyone notice his occasional 'side trips' away from the Castle, or into the Forest...*
... I didn't think to check wards or anything, though... *a bit meekly said* I was mostly just trying to be useful for a change... I usually can't sleep at night, so... *trails off*
Anyway... I hope you're evening has been as uneventful as mine so far..?
