Eating alone in the Dining Hall was possibly the most depressing thing ever. Honestly, most of the time Tobias avoided going to the Dining Hall altogether, but this time his daily extra training ended just at dinner time, and his daily extra training always left him starving. So he'd gone down to the Dining Hall to get some food, which was horrible (since it was still school food, after all), trying to finish it as quickly as he could so that 1) random people wouldn't ambush him and try to talk to him or 2) he wouldn't get weird glances for eating alone.
What? Eating alone was his choice, okay? And it was none of their business whether or not he had people to eat with, anyway. Tobias didn't exactly have many friends in Northvale-- or anywhere, really-- because why bother with friends when he could spend the time training or sparring with his siblings? That sounded much more fun. Although he also couldn't really spar with his siblings nowadays since they always seemed so busy, and he didn't really want to spar with Aria or Jonah, because they wouldn't help him improve his skills at all.
Ugh. Tobias really needed to improve himself; the fact that he couldn't even beat Connor was just plain disappointing. How was he ever going to beat Liam if he couldn't beat Connor? He needed to improve himself, and improve himself fast. Perhaps he should pay more attention to strategy the next time they sparred instead of just depending on his power? But then again, strategy didn't exactly work when he got so caught up in the fight he had no idea what was going on. This was probably worth more thought, though.

When was the last time he had food put into him? Connor wasn't actually sure. He was tying to make sure he was a good charms professor and it was turning out to be rather difficult. He had to give props to Cain and Liam for putting up with little kids like that and stuff. Connor was good with kids normally, and he was finding it hard to deal with the kids that didn't want to do work or listen or stuff. A few times he wanted to hex them. That would be the simple solution.
After he walked in, he noticed Toby sitting by himself right away. Idiot boy probably made everyone he knew mad at him and they didn't want to sit by him. Connor didn't blame him honestly. He grabbed some food and sat across from him on the table. "Hey, Toby. How are you?"

Upon hearing Connor's voice, Tobias (rather reluctantly) raised his head and directed his most emotionless stare at Connor. "Frankly, worse now that you're here," he replied, picking at his-- well, he didn't really know what it was. It really annoyed Tobias how whenever he was eating alone in the Dining Hall, if one of his siblings spotted him, they'd feel obliged to eat with him or something. At least Aria didn't do that (she was too caught up in her own life to care) and Elodie was actually the only one whose presence would be appreciated. And that was totally why he liked his sisters the most, okay? At least they didn't stick their overlarge noses into his personal life.
Then, Tobias actually bothered to look at Connor closely. Damn, since when had Connor looked so exhausted? It was probably teaching taking a toll on him-- well, it was his fault for choosing to become a professor. Although there weren't really many jobs around in Northvale, seriously, why did Connor have to become Charms professor? It was bad enough that both Liam and Cain were professors-- and well, Tobias had absolutely zero intention of becoming a professor (and dealing with little shits) when he graduated. No, he'd become...
Well, he hadn't decided yet, but it would be a cool and awesome job where no one bitched about him on itsdramavale. Or perhaps they would, but Tobias frankly didn't care that much-- Tobias figured that as long as he wasn't a professor, things couldn't be that bad. Still, though, Tobias was trying to be a good brother, so he probably had to ask after Connor or something.
"Is that exhausted look on your face because your relationship with Luce is having problems, or because your career as a stupid professor is having problems?"

Connor loved all his siblings. There was not a single one he wanted to murder in cold blood in front of the entire dining hall. He was nice to them all. They were all awesome. Those were the things he had to tell himself as he wondered why he bothered coming over to talk to Tobias. Connor deadpan looked at his brother as he tried to think of how it was possible Tobias was related to any of them.
"Okay. Here's a little hint. Maybe you'd have someone to sit by when eating if you weren't a dick all the time. Fuck. Seriously? I'm related to you and I don't want to be sitting here anymore."
[/b] Connor said with a roll of his eyes. "And I'm perfectly fine. My relationship is fine. Everything is fine, but apparently you're not because you need mental assessment."[/b] [/color][/SIZE][/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote] OUTFIT: Clicky! /// NOTES: --- /// TAGGED: Toby-dick[/center][/font] |

It was rather amusing to see Connor almost blow up in front of the entire dining hall, but try his very best to restrain himself. Somehow Tobias was left wondering why Connor had bothered to hold himself back. He generally found that a few well-placed hexes usually took out all the frustration that he might feel, and helped him feel a lot better than one might expect after getting into a fight with one of his siblings. And maybe it was quite bad of him to think like this, but Tobias actually wished that Connor hadn't held himself back. Tobias would welcome a fight with Connor any time.
Then Connor started his little rant, which was stupid. Did Connor not know Tobias at all? What possessed Connor to think that Tobias wanted someone to sit by him? Tobias frankly didn't even like Connor that much, especially what with his ridiculous girlfriend and all. Obviously Connor had suffered brain damage-- probably from extended periods of exposure to Asher and his weird-ass potion fumes-- and was therefore extremely confused. Ugh, did that mean that Tobias had to be patient with his brother? Because that was just... silly.
Silly. Tobias scowled a little bit at his brother before replying. "I was just trying to be a concerned and nice brother," he said. Sometimes Connor was just really dickish. "I mean, both you and Luce have to know that no one really approves of your relationship with that vapid bitch. I just wanted to know how it was going, or whatever." Tobias chewed his food a little more before continuing. "I'm suprised you haven't chased her off yet or something. She's... annoying. And, well, fucking weird. Did you know she's masochistic? Apparently she likes weird stuff during sex. Oh wait, yeah, of course you know that." He nodded as he stole a bit of food off Connor's plate. "I mean, you're her boyfriend. Have you guys had sex yet? Does she really like all that weird crap that the rumours say?"

Connor loved Tobias. He really did. Connor wasn't capable of not loving one of his own siblings, that was just impossible. BUt this was just... too far. Way too fucking far. He had no right to talk about his relationship with Luce that way. Connor was happy. Connor hadn't been with someone truly in a long time, and there was something special about Luce. "Maybe you didn't know this, but I'm happy with Luce. I don't care who doesn't approve of my relationship with her because I'm happy. For so long I was put with the kids, and I didn't mind that. But I can't handle it anymore when I can't even live my own life. So I get a job here, try to make it my life a bit. Share Elodie and Asher a little more with my other siblings. And this is what I get? One of my brothers telling me I can't do something that makes me happy?"
[/b] Connor was almost seething at this point. He was a teacher though. He couldn't do something that he would regret later because it could cost him his job and he wasn't about to lose something he just got. "Fuck you."[/b] [/color][/SIZE][/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote] OUTFIT: Clicky! /// NOTES: --- /// TAGGED: Toby-dick[/center][/font] |

  Tobias rolled his eyes when Connor started ranting about how he was 'happy' with Luce and how they should really stop concerning themselves with his relationship. "Yeah whatever, Connor, do what you want," Tobias scoffed. "I'm just saying, she's weird and she'll end up hurting you sooner or later. You'll see, and when you do, don't say I didn't warn you."
What really pissed Tobias off, though, was his later statement about how he had been "put with the kids" and being "unable to live his own life". "What the hell, Connor?" he hissed, glaring at his brother. "If you really hated taking care of Asher and Ells that much, you could have just told us. Cain would've been more than happy to take Asher, and you know I would've taken Ells in a heartbeat." Now Connor was just being unreasonable. He'd volunteered to take care of Asher and Elodie when they decided to move to Northvale, and now here he was, turning the argument around and bitching at them about it? That was just wrong.
If anything, Connor's final "fuck you" only served to piss Toby off even more. "No thank you," he snarked at his brother, "I'm not really into that kind of weird, kinky shit. Maybe you should ask your weird-as-fuck girlfriend, I'm sure she'd be happy to accomodate whatever fucking weird kinks you have."

Why had he ever thought it would have been a good idea to sit next to Toby. Why did he feel like he should be the nice older brother and sit next to him when he was alone. Because he was that. A nice older brother. And Tobias was just a young idiot. "That's not what I fucking meant, okay?! I don't mind having to take care of them. I'm just saying that I did, have, am! I let you all live your lives. Try to get better. Something! And then I'm treated like this by you. Maybe if you stopped being such a dick sometimes, people would actually want to sit with you!"
[/b] Connor hissed and stood up. If he didn't leave right now, he was going to end up doing something he would regret and he couldn't do that. He glared at Toby and maybe possibly did a wandless, silent spell which put make up on his face. He was just that nice. Then, he walked out without another word.
