"Terry?" Julien thought back, not sure what Terry could have done to provoke Alfie into hitting him until his Ravenclaw mind joined the dots of 'Terry', 'a friend of Alfie's' 'Christmas feast' and 'deserved it' although much of it was assumption. He'd hazard a guess at something to do with Terry's relationship to that hyperactive Harmony kid he'd met that time with Alfie and his relationship to Michael Corner and Anthony Goldstein.
He didn't think it through more though as it was none of his business and not his place to judge. "I think so. But still, you did it for a good reason." he didn't want Alfie to feel all bad, even though he agreed that violence probably wasn't the best answer to anything - then again, he didn't know what had happened.
His fingers curled without his notice, rubbing at the warm place left behind where Alfie's fingers had been. "Sure you're okay? Did you want to show me your project in the greenhouse?" he asked, hoping to stop Alfie dwelling on it and feeling bad.
