Belgear walked from his room, cat in toe, looking for any signs of life.

Things had been quiet as of late. No one to talk to, train with. It was a tad sad, actually.

"Why the long face?" said Draco.

"I am just a tad... distraut... at the current state of things around here." replied Bel.

At that the cat jumped on to his shoulder and licked his cheek, "Things will brighten up here in a bit, don't you worry."

With that they strode off to the cafeteria for some food.
