Ahh, see! There was still hope yet! Daichi didn't know what to get, and with one look at the prizes, he would surely pick something. Although, him asking about most people getting house points left him a little skeptical of that happening.

Nodding slowly, as if any sudden movement would startle the boy and have him running away, Waylon let his hand hover over the animated plush dragon when.. he retracted it right back to his side. House points, there it was! But with the way Daichi had said it, Waylon couldn't even try to get him to change his mind. Darn kids.. being all cute. "Well, you are now seven points closer of having that happen." he said, jotting a few things down on his parchment and collecting the tokens.

Maybe he could throw the tokens in the wishing fountain later.

These kids could not be swayed, could they?

Waylon raised an eyebrow, but in the end, he picked up the notepad and wrote down Ella's information. "Okay." he drawled dramatically, "One point for you!" At least she was a Hufflepuff. Hehe.

And the negotiations continue!

Pushing himself off the counter he was leaning over, Waylon raised his eyebrows to match Sierra's. It was very difficult not to burst out laughing at how serious she was being, but somehow he managed and he scratched at his chin as he thought about what she was saying.

So, not only was she going to feed his ducks for a whole week, she was going to bring him cake and butterbeer?

That seemed like alot of work just for a few extra points, didn't it? Who was he to complain, though? He got a week off from feeding the ducks! And if they did talk further negotiations, maybe he could get her to water the vegetables in the vegetable garden for a week as well.

He eyed the tokens in her hand as she jiggled them. "I'll give you your ten points now." Since she had ten tokens, not twelve. He knew that! "Then, after you feed the ducks," and bring him that cake, "we'll discuss giving you those other points." He wiggled his fingers for the tokens.

Taking off the hat he was wearing since it was starting to itch his head, Waylon grinned at Alyssa as she walked up, his hands already reaching for the parchment he was writing on. She had that 'I want house points' look on her face, too, and it really was no surprise when she asked for just that.

"Three tokens." he said, holding out his hand for her to drop them in. "And three house points for you."
