Jace and Xavier
Xavi had been hanging in the courtyard for awhile now, waving his wand around and casting harmless Charms for his amusement. Except, it wasn't very amusing considering he was thinking about other things and his head was buzzing with thoughts. He was so out of tune with reality that he didn't realize he had thrown a Rictusempra Jace's way.

He straightened up, blinking in surprise, not realizing Jace had been in the courtyard with him. "Or a sign to scram," he shot back, brushing off his robes. "When'd you get here, man?"

"Well that's pure convenience," he pointed out. "At the time of casting spell, I had no realization you were nearby. Actually, I don't think it would've changed anything anyway. I wouldn't have notice you either way."

"I don't think you catch my point," he said bluntly. "Like I hinted, the spell was purely accidental. Anyway, I don't remember yours either. Shall we trade or are you busy going wherever you're going?"

"Xavi," he said, shaking Jace's hand firmly. "You're not in my year," he deducted. "Sixth? Seventh, maybe?"

"Fifth, yes," he confirmed. "I wanted to be out of this hell hole as soon as possible but then I realized I'm now part of a notorious gang and I'm taking it easy from now on."

Except I plan to get rid of that pesky blackmailer and leave as soon as possible. He forced a smile and nodded. "Is what it is," he agreed. "Was this a morning jog?"

"By what, may I ask?" he inquired, tilting his head.

"Aren't the kitchens inside though?" he asked, jutting his head towards the Viaduct. "Or did you come from that way and I just didn't notice?"
