There was a stupid little student who Barty had to deal with over the journals, but it had to be dealt with. They were rather jumpy little creatures, and he had dealt with them more than enough over the past week. Augustus thankfully had things under control, so that Barty spent some time going over his old entries, exchanges with Evan - little fun things. It had been a good morning, really, and his hand still tingled a little bit. But it still wasn't right to just stare at Evan all day, as satisfying as that would have been.
The birthday wishes, well, Barty didn't really feel like it was his birthday - except that he felt a year older - but his energies had to go elsewhere, and most the people who wished it to him he wanted working on things, not concerned over him. And really, he was fine. Just a bit sex deprived. That was all.
Barty glanced up when Evan wished him happy birthday, and Barty smiled. "Thank you, Evan," he replied, and it wasn't just the polite response then. He did mean it. Hmm, what had Evan planned on giving him - before getting exploded and losing his memories? Barty didn't expect anything from Evan in his current state.
