While some ‘Purebloods’ might be concerned with such silly things such as titles as far as the Warde family was concerned putting such emphasis on ‘Muggle’ titles was almost as bad as being a blood traitor. Of course he wouldn’t say<em>that</em>out loud. There weren’t many things that would earn someone disdain but blood purity was certainly looked down upon, for reasons Nathaniel and Zacharias couldn’t really understand. Still, that didn’t keep Nathaniel from smiling rather smugly at the younger Gryffindor while casting a rather derisive look over him.<em>"Careful Iain. You’re muggle sympathy is showing."</em>Regardless of the fact Moray or Rosalyn were in the room, neither of the Warde cared to hide their disdain. To the point that Nathan’s little quip was enough to bring a smirk to Zacharias’ lips as he stood up. While Zacharias stood up, naturally putting some distance between himself and Moray, he made his way over to the carriage door to get a better look at the ‘blushing bride’ his parents had arranged for him.<br/><br/>Nathaniel of course noticed the little stare that that Moray had given him, but he shrugged it off. While he didn’t particularly care about anyone finding out about their late night study sessions, and their activities, he also didn’t really see a reason to advertise it. Plus, for some odd reason, Moray seemed to want it kept private so he was kind enough to give her that conciliation. He did like to spoil what was his, after all. Though, at the little statement that Rosalyn made toward Nathaniel, there was a slightly bitterer smirk on his lips as he glanced over her.<em>"Well, <span class="bbc_u">heiress</span>, considering the filthy company you keep a covenant would probably have been for the best. Otherwise I might have ended up breaki-"</em>Before Nathaniel had a chance to finish that particularly nasty response of his, Zacharias arm tugged at his shoulder, pulling him back from both the ‘Gryffindors’ while rolling his eyes at just how easily Nathaniel managed to get set-off. It seemed that that nasty little trait of his hadn’t had time to wind down over these last few years.<br/><br/><em>"Cool it. It’s not worth it anyway."</em>Zacharias kept his hand on Nathaniel’s shoulder, slightly pressing him back as he stepped in between his hot-head of a cousin and the two who’d come to bother them. Well, one who’d come to bother them. The other was technically his bride so he supposed he couldn’t hold anything against her. Even if they were going to end up in different houses, which was a bit of a shame, getting a chance to actually look at her there was an almost devilish glint in Zacharias eyes. He might not be as brazen, or vocal, about his sexual nature. But that didn’t mean he couldn’t appreciate something<em>fine</em>that was in front of him. Besides, he had a thing for red-heads.<em>"Miss Rosalyn. While I agree that we need time to talk. This might not be the most.. appropriate time or local for us to have that conversation. At the very least, not until we’re in a more private setting."</em>While still holding back his cousin, who actually let out a slight snort, before slinking into the seat beside Moray. All while muttering something about being grateful that he hadn’t ended up married to such a<em>brat.</em>After which Nathaniel lazily draped his hand over Moray’s shoulder, that rather possessive nature of his making him want to be a bit closer to her.<br/><br/>Not that Zacharias was paying much attention to his cousin at this point, otherwise he would have made a mental note of his possessiveness towards Moray for future use. Since the cousins business had been disturbed there was no chance of returning to it while the rest were still crowded around. Besides, Zacharias wanted to scope out the rest of the first years, anyway. He hadn’t been planning to stick around with his cousin anyway until they reached the end of the expresses journey. So it was probably better for the two Warde’s to part ways for now. Zacharias wouldn’t have to bother retrieving his things, anyway.<em>"So I’ll leave it up to you, would you like to take a walk now and talk. Or would you prefer to talk after the sorting ceremony. Either way, I’m happy to accommodate you."</em><br/><br/>After seeing Zacharias playing nice with his ‘fiancé’ Nathaniel decided to turn his undivided attention to Moray. Since he had absolutely no reason to spend any mind, or waste his time, on the other Gryffindor that had invaded their carriage. Neither of the two of them were new students but Nathaniel really didn’t pay much attention to the younger years, especially those who weren’t Slytherin. It was only the loud, nosy, and big-mouthed young-un’s like Iain whose names he’d learned mostly because they were a nuisance. Instead while Zacharias chatted to Rosalyn, who also ignored Iain, Nathaniel leaned into Moray’s ear and muttered.<em>"Loveday stormed past earlier on the warpath. Who was dumb enough to piss her off?"</em><br/>
