"Why does she have to do this ALL THE TIME?!? We promised to look out for each other and yet she constantly heads out on her own and I never know where she went!" Hansel complained, leaning heavily on the table. He might have had a bit too much too drink but his words were surprisingly clear despite that. Yet, the next words, spoken softly, showed that maybe he was more drunk than one would think. "Doesn't she trust me?"

@clumsyherbologist​ (x):

Neville carefully pats his shoulder in sympathy, trying to nod at all the right moments. It's obvious that Hansel wants someone to listen and complain at and it's not like Neville is going to go out there and pass it on. Better him than some random stranger that would do just that, right?

Also he can kind of relate to having someone they care about going out and doing stupidly dangerous things without them, that's a common Gryffindor trait and he grew up surrounded by them.

"I think she does trust you, she probably just thinks she can manage on her own, y'know?"

“But we promised...how am I supposed to watch her back if she doesn’t even tell me where she’s going?” It felt like he was being left behind while Gretel ran further and further away from him. She was his whole world and he had thought it was the other way around too and yet...

A sigh escaped him as he buried his head in his arms. “I don’t know what to do...” She had always been the more free spirited one, the one that loved exploring and learning and it was something he loved dearly about his sister. He didn’t want her to change but he didn’t want to lose her either and it felt like he was losing her.

@clumsyherbologist​​ asked: “there’s nothing wrong with asking for help.” (Hansel)

“Yeah, maybe.” Hansel muttered as he wrapped a bandage around his arm where the latest monster of the week had gotten a lucky hit in. It’s not like he never asked for help but it was simply that he had gotten used to either doing things solely with his sister’s aid or alone.
