During the process of the game being played, Nathaniel had entered the common room, and started to observe the players. He was dressed in his silken pajamas, which were embroidered with his initials on the chest pocket, and featured a deep shade of green - for Slytherin, naturally - and a robe. As the youth watched, his eyes flicked back and forward, between the students and the cards; he could see the pairs when they appeared, he even felt the twitch in his right hand at the impulse to react with his wand, but the hand was empty as Nathaniel wasn't part of the game.
Nathaniel continued to watch, even as he reached into the deep pocket of his robe and pulled out an open packet of Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans.
"Oh!" he called, as he saw a pair. "There!"
Almost as soon as Nathaniel said it, he blinked and quietened down. The boy hoped the outburst hadn't ruined the fun or contest, but something inside just seemed to click with the competition and wands... still, it wasn't his game to play, not at the moment, and observation seemed best. Nathaniel looked about the common room and caught sight of a familiar individual, Don, and offered a smile.
"Hello, would you like one?" Nathaniel greeted, as he walked over and offered a jelly bean. "It's good to see you. Welcome back!"

"Nice try, McEvoy. We're good where we are."
The switch to his last name may have seemed like a sign of irritation, but Don suspected that Juvia's temper wasn't quite so short. "Well, good luck playing without my help then, Himura," he huffed before turning to the new arrival.
"Russian roulette in candy form? I could never refuse," he declared, taking a red one and popping it into his mouth. A moment later, his eyes watered. "Chili-- Anyone got-- milk?" he choked out, exaggerating the effects dramatically by clutching at his throat as if struggling for air.
He paused the horsing around to answer the first-year's greeting. "Thanks, I knew you people missed me!"

"Yes, I suppose it is like that."
Nathaniel continued to smile, as McEvoy took the jelly bean and plopped it into his mouth. The younger boy did the same, after he fished his own magical sweet out of the box, likewise putting it in his mouth. It seemed the older Slytherin had gotten chili, which caused Nathaniel to raise his eyebrows at the display of discomfort - perhaps, after all McEvoy had been through recently, it would be a candy that killed him?
"Oh, mine is gravy," Nathaniel said as he chewed and scrunched his nose up, thoughtfully. "It's quite nice."
There was a moment when Nathaniel paused, as McEvoy called him you people, and the younger Slytherin wondered if that meant purebloods. Would McEvoy really be that open about calling out others? Nonetheless, Nathaniel continued to smile throughout the exchange, thinking that maybe - just perhaps - he should have poked the other boy in the eye, when given the chance...
"It's good to see you up and about, Don," Nathaniel said, instead, as he continued to chew the remaining bean in his mouth. "After the petrification, I mean... what did it feel like? Do you... remember anything?"
Nathaniel raised his eyebrows and added, quickly.
"I don't mean to pry, but you're kind of a celebrity around here now: you survived being petrified!"
