Frank Longbottom could be described as the smartest idiot you would ever meet. While he did well in his classes, and was actually fairly powerful magic wise, he was also the most thoughtless person you'd come to meet. He would sometimes walk the halls of Hogwarts and end up having no idea where he was. He mostly just got caught up in his thoughts that whirled around his head. Sometimes he even ran into walls – though that was a much rarer occurrence than anything else. It probably didn't help that he didn't understand the layout of the castle very well, even after four complete years here and now onto his fifth.
Frankly, he didn't want to get lost again, so he found himself on the grounds of Hogwarts. You can't get lost on the grounds, right? It was all one big open place, and you could see Hogwarts from just about everywhere, so you knew which way to head to get back to Hogwarts… Frank would find that he was very wrong about that.
He was just taking a nice walk, when he noticed that it seemed to be getting darker and darker. Hm. It shouldn't be that late yet. He blinked a couple times and focused on his surroundings. Oh no. The color drained out of his face. He was surrounded by trees. Which way was the castle? He couldn't see it from where he was – the trees covered the sky and he looked around, his heart beating out of his chest. Oh no. He was lost in the forest. They'd eventually notice he was missing and then find his eaten remains here. There were going to be werewolves or – or centaurs who wanted to eat his flesh! Wait, Frank, centaurs don't eat people. Phew, there was one worry that quickly went away. But still, there were a lot of creatures in the forest that could harm him.
Just as he was attempting to make his way… well what he hoped was back to the castle and not deeper in, he heard scurrying around the floor. He whimpered slightly, holding his lighted wand tightly in his hand. Suddenly he was jumped from behind – he blasted whatever it was away, turning to see it was a giant spider. And then another one jumped on his back. Oh god. He was going to be eaten by spiders. However, that thought didn't let him give up and he continued to fight them off one by one, but soon he became overwhelmed – there were too many for him to take on himself.
Goodbye sweet world. Goodbye Alice. Goodbye Marlene. Goodbye Mum and Dad…

If one asked Tonks what the hell she was doing near the Forbidden Forest... well, she wouldn't have a good answer for you.
Ever since that DADA lesson, she'd been intrigued. She heard a rumour that Werewolves lived in the Forbidden Forest, and well, she found herself out here, staring at it. She hadn't gone in yet... yet. But she was about to and then... there was a sound of a scuffle. Shouts of spells and, she ran in.
There, in the middle of the forest, was Frank Longbottom, fighting off a heard of spiders. What is with these Gryffindors?
"Arania Exumai!"
There was a flash of light and the spiders scattered.
"What are you doing?"

Frank was breathing heavily, but there was a flash of light, and oh god, what if it was McGonagall? His parents would still love him if he got expelled but he didn't want that at all! He didn't want to leave Hogwarts! This was where all his friends were, and if he wanted to be an Auror, and he really did, he needed to stay and do well on his OWLs and – and – Frank heard the voice ask what he was doing and thank god it didn't sound like McGonagall. In fact it was that Hufflepuff Remus liked. Nymphadora Tonks. Oh, thank merlin, that could've been bad. Either he was gonna die, or he was gonna be expelled, but somehow, he had been lucky enough that neither of those things happened.
"Uhhhhh… I'm a werewolf, grrr…" Frank replied, feeling silly for what had actually happened. He jumped up to his feet and dusted himself off since he had fallen on the ground. "Thanks for that though, those spiders were too much for just one person. Plus, I didn't want to hurt them, yeah? They just want food." He nods firmly and clears his throat. "Truthfully though, I'm not a werewolf. I just… was walking and the next I knew I was here."

She gave him an "are you serious" sort of look and rolled her eyes.
"Just walking around? Longbottom, you've somehow gotten yourself into the forest. How, after five years of being here, have you just managed to randomly walk into the forest?!"
Tonks shook her head, stowing her wand away.

"Sirius? No, that bloke has longer hair, darker, a bit of facial hair too." Now the question remained: was he playing dumb or actually dumb? Sometimes it was fake. Sometimes he played dumb to make a joke. But sometimes he was just clueless. This was not one of those times. Yes, he was playing dumb when it came to the serious thing. Good job Frank L, or as one might call him Frankle. Okay, no one called him that but himself in his mind, because he thought it was funny.
His face turned red slightly. "I got lost in my head. I didn't pay attention to where I was going. Normally when I do that, I do it in the castle, but then I run into things and I didn't want to run into walls today so… I went to the grounds. I thought if I went anywhere dangerous someone would stop me before I got too far… apparently not…"

Frank Longbottom was the very definition of dunderhead, she concluded, if you looked the word up in the dictionary, his face would be right there. Not like she would ever say that out loud, but, boy was he dense. Seriously, who just manages to find themselves IN the Forbidden Forest? Frank Longbottom, apparently.
Tonks gave a roll of her eyes, "well, Longbottom, I think you should stick within Hogwarts, walls or not, those walls are there to keep you safe. Or perhaps you should take to thinking in the bath instead? Much more therapeutic, if you ask me.

He laughed. A bath. He took one of those yesterday, though he planned to take a shower later today before he went off to bed. After homework, because for some reason when he did his homework he ended up covered with ink. Luckily his family had money, so they could afford more ink because somehow it always magically got somewhere on him. Probably because of his clumsiness.
"Well, when I take a bath and think I tend to get all pruney and it feels weird. You know, like when your fingers get wrinkly and stuff." He nods and holds up his hands, as though to show her what he meant, but they weren't pruney. He looked at them and then dropped his hands. "You see, when I start to think, my body just sort of moves on it own too, and I get lost. There's a lot of interesting thoughts that go through my head."
"Like… Pirates are amazing! They're even better than like, Dumbledore when it comes to accepting people. No leg? Here's a wooden one! You better swab the deck! No eye? Here's an eyepatch, now go steer the ship! They don't care or even like, give you any sort of special treatment just because something's wrong with you. Aren't pirates great other than the whole stealing from people thing?"

Her brows furrowed. Pirates? What in Merlin's name is he going on about now? Was there something wrong with this kid? Maybe it wasn't a bath he needed, but a mental evaluation by Madam Pomfrey. She debated on taking him to the Hospital Wing, just in case those spiders hadn't attacked him or anything. But then again, Longbottom was always kinda cooky like this wasn't it?
"Longbottom, sometimes I think you are shy a few hours of sleep most days."

He looked at her curiously. Too few hours of sleep? He was pretty sure he got enough! Why did she think… oh, she was probably just worried about him. She might think that his thoughts wandered because he was tired! That wasn't the case at all, it was just how it worked for him. He shook his head, rubbing the back of his neck with his wand hand, accidentally sending some sparks out of them and causing a small fire. "Oh flipping fiddlesticks!" He quickly jumped into action putting it out and tucking his wand away, nervous chuckling and looking at her.
"Ah ha, sorry about that… I get enough sleep, I swear! I just think a lot, its hard to focus on some things sometimes… I get distracted a lot…"

She watches as he rubs the back of his head and sparks shoot out of his wand and she sighs.
"You're worse than I am, Longbottom. I just have this terrible feeling you're gonna end up in the wrong place at the wrong time."
She sighs.
"Let's get you back up to the castle before McGonagall sees either of us out here, if she's prowling around."

Frank shrugged and let out a chuckle. "Well, Lady luck delivered you here instead of McGonagall! If it was her, I'd for sure be expelled! I can't do that and still be an auror! Plus, Mum would kill me! She's really intense sometimes. She has this big handbag that she carries lots of stuff in and if she whacked me with it I'd be knocked out! Not that she would even if I was expelled, but… it could be used as a weapon!"
However, he still nodded and started heading… deeper into the forest. "Yeah let's get out of here!" He seems to think it’s the way out. "I don't wanna be expelled!"

Once again, she gave Longbottom and odd look and grabbed his collar.
"Okay, that's going BACK IN we're going the other direction, c'mon."
She began to lead them the way she came from, luckily having a fair bit more sense than him.
"I really think you should find a different hobby than just wandering outside."

Frank looked at her for a moment after she had grabbed his collar. "Oh, okay then. I thought it was the way out… Boy that could've been really bad." Especially since the way he was heading they would've ran right into Aragogg, which wouldn't have turned out very good since they didn't have a magical car to save them.
"Well, what else should I do? I just wanted think and my body kinda just moves on its own."

"That's dangerous," Tonks says with a shake of her head. "I mean, look at where you ended up!"
Another sigh escaped her as she looked at Frank, almost tiredly. "You gotta keep your head on your shoulders, you know that right? Can't just go... thinking wildly. Especially when your feet lead you into places like the Forest. Gotta be more careful. You could end up hurt, or dead, or worse, expelled!"

Frank laughed. Worse than death was expulsion? She needed to sort out her priorities – or she was joking. That was probably what it was honestly. Frank still rubbed the back of his neck.
"Well, Mum would kill me if I was expelled so…" He sighs and looks up for a bit while he followed her towards the entrance presumably. "I mean, I was more worried about hurting the spiders. They were just doing what they needed to in order to survive."
