Fanfic idea!! Prob not original but I wanna say it
Floyd and the prefect are in a kinda relationship. All happy and sunshine and rainbows, until his mood swings got in the way. He was just not in the mood and the prefect tried to be careful, but it wasn't enough. One thing led to another, and they were badly hurt.
That made the prefect think twice about the relationship and ultimately made them break up.
And that break up SERIOUSLY fxcked him up.
His mood worsens to the point Azul just stops making him work at the lounge. He stops hanging out and bothering people. He even started distancing himself from his own brother. And his thoughts start going bad. He had a realization that having little to no control over his mood swings was very bad for him.
He has a whole crisis at the revelation that no matter how much he loved his partner there would always be the risk of him hurting them. That no one would ever willingly want to get into a relationship with him if they knew they could be hurt by him.
Soon though, Riddle(or anyone idk. but I like Florid, + Riddle kinda has anger issues too) notices something was off, and after talking to his fellow second years, he decides he was probably strong enough to fight off Floyd if anything went wrong.
Floyd tells him his crisis, why should he bother hiding it? What will the goldfish do?
And what does he do? He comforts him. Tells him that people can care, they can tolerate him, Azul and Jade are proof of that. Did he mess up his relationship with the prefect? A bit, but that wasn't entirely his own fault. And he can still mend the relationship, if he put in enough work... And even if it still fails, he still has friends around him.
That doesn't immediately help, but Riddle has a high rank in his mind, so consciously or not, he held his opinion to a high standard. As he thought about his words more, he starts getting back to normal, his mood swings start going down, he finally starts talking to Jade and Azul again, and he even chats with the prefect once in a while. Not as much as he used to, but he still wants to hang on to that relationship, it was his first after all. But if he prefect really didn't want to, it would probably be for the better of both of them.
But even then, Riddle was the one who helped him, so he starts hanging out with him more and more. Goldfishie actually looked pretty cute being all concerned for him.
