Dimitri has a great deal of respect for the professor but he cannot possibly fathom why they thought it was a good idea to choose him, Dimitri "can't wield most weapons without breaking them" Alexandre "has all the grace of a knobbly newborn foal" Blaiddyd, to be the representative for the White Heron Cup. He's not even that charming!! His battalion only barely tolerates him because he has skill on his side!
So, perhaps, Dimitri is look forward to the ball slightly less than he was before and he doesn't at all appreciate Felix bringing it up. He had hoped Felix was sticking around after class to have an actual conversation with him. Something. Anything but this. But no. Dimitri lets his head fall into his hands, tired and embarrassed, with a groan. At least Felix isn't teasing him... yet.... ] Please... The professor has been giving me lessons so perhaps I won't be a total failure.
[The only way he can turn this competition around is if he's up against someone like Raphael and Hubert. And even then, Raph could win with his personality and Hubert can scare his way into the ranks. He's doomed.]
