It was safe to say that Orion was not expecting Belle to say something like that, and he was caught entirely off guard by being called adorable. He'd never really noticed any attention being paid toward him from girls at Hogwarts, partly because he'd spent most of his time reading books in the library or playing Quidditch with his house. "Thank you," he said, but his tone of voice was almost questioning, as if wondering what he'd done to be considered adorable and why it was such.
The brooms that Belle talked about almost seemed like fantasy to Orion at that point, having come from such an older time then she had. "That broom sounds just incredible," he remarked, referring to the Nimbus she talked about. "Even with the non-liability forms."
