Being a victim of abuse, Kennie knew the signs when he saw them, and the signs showed clear as day with this guy. This meant that, when he likely should have backed away, he didn't. There was no way he was just going to walk away from someone in need! He knew he wasn't the strongest, or bravest of people, and most just mistook him for a goofy nerd. But he would never leave a poor soul to suffer. He was fairly certain the guilt of doing such would eat him alive.

"Hey, hey... calm down, it's alright," he said, putting away the wand and holding out his hands to show they were empty. But he kept them close, because the guy still seemed pretty unstable on his feet. "I don't know you, but I can tell you're not alright."

He chewed his lip a moment, thinking, and then held out his hand for shaking. "I'm Kennie. Kennie Towler. I own a pet shop in Hogsmeade. I was just going to return there, I live above it, you see. If you want you can come there, sit down, have some tea and play with the animals some until you feel better and are steady on your feet. It'll be warm there too."
