She seems useful and well quite nice and though the conversation may be awkward he could aid her in carrying one. As to how these two would meet both purebloods and sixth year, Cygnus is known for being quite brilliant so maybe she had asked him to aid in an assignment and he had agreed reluctantly to do so and the two could becomes friends. I'd just like to see the blue haired duo be all cool like that considering Cygnus himself is quite anti-social.[/style]

He should forcefully pair them up for an assignment. Some sort of groups charm assignment where it would involve the two of them having to work together and both of them immediately complain to professor Chen. Cygnus is pretty awkward about girls and she is afraid of guyss so something along the lines of finding some creature or item that is good for charms or just a scavenger hunt for his own shits and gigs but I think they should be paired up and reluctant about it and let the flow go from there?[/style]

He doesn't want to deal with that kind of crap. We should make them pair up in a potions assignment actually, since that's more reasonable than charms. if it was a scavenger hunt then they could easily split up, but working on a potion requires them to well.. work together c: something along those lines.[/style]

Maybe they were close friends at one point, but not anymore. Echo isn't fond of the male population, nor is she really fond about being a veela.

Maybe they kept their distance from each other for awhile, but maybe Laurie tried to talk to her again, but she completely brushed him off.
