Theo at home was like an entirely different person to Theo at school. He looked out in Greg's direction as the other boy drank, not staring directly at him as that was impolite, but unable to start any conversation. Five days of mostly silence felt like years had passed without talking and Theo wondered if he even knew how anymore.
He stood as Greg did and nodded, one of the silent eerie house elves appearing without being beckoned and whisking the dirty glass and drink trolley away. "Which would you prefer?" he asked, his tone as bland and only politely curious as it had been the entire time.
