ᴘᴀʏɪɴɢ ᴀᴛᴛᴇɴᴛɪᴏɴ ᴛᴏ ʜɪs sᴜʀʀᴏᴜɴᴅɪɴɢs was definitely something that harry sʜᴏᴜʟᴅ be doing more of , but that ɴᴇᴠᴇʀ meant that he would . constantly with his head in the ᴄʟᴏᴜᴅs , with full expectations that people would ɴᴏᴛɪᴄᴇ him and hopefully step aside to ᴀᴠᴏɪᴅ him from bumping into anyone .. ᴍᴏsᴛ of the time that worked , but today ? it sɪᴍᴘʟʏ didn’t . instead he walked into someone ᴡʜᴏ was , just like him , not watching ᴡʜᴇʀᴇ he was going .. and sɪɴᴄᴇ that was something that harrison could ᴇᴀsɪʟʏ relate to , he didn’t ʙʟᴀᴍᴇ him . “ – that’s alright . it’s my ғᴀᴜʟᴛ , too , ” he wasn’t in the mood to ғɪɢʜᴛ , or to sᴏᴄɪᴀʟɪᴢᴇ in general , really . “ .. interesting , isn’t it ? .. a house ? ” he asked , frowning ᴅᴇᴇᴘʟʏ .
of course he had to run into someone older than him. of course he had to be a little weirdo, looking at houses and seemingly daydreaming about them. it was weird. you’re so awkward, samuel. it’s not like he hasn’t been in that neighborhood before. he’s been in some house there. he’s robbed houses there. so why is he looking all doe-eyed at them? for riassa’s sake, obviously apparently he’s supposed to be there for every beck and call she makes .. including scoping houses. “alright,” he nods and shoves his hands in his pocket and waits for something to happen ( the other to speak, the other to walk away ). “just lookin; at ‘em. it’d be nice to live there.”
