Oakey smiled at Ella, and pat her on the shoulder.
"You know me too well." Really though that sink was his if he couldn't pay to get in at some point.

He looked over to Kaiden, the boy was on the Quidditch team with him last year, and he was a pretty good chaser too.
"I'm working on one, give me a moment."
Oakey paced back and forth in place for a while before he was stopped again.

Laura took out a handful of knuts that she had from earlier. "Oakey if you go anywhere near any first year, give them these." Laura handed Oakey them over, she was sure some of the first years wouldn't have any with them.
What was Laura doing?
"No one is giving out knuts to anyone yet. let me think now Laura." There had to be a generous way to do this without anyone wasting their own money on one another.

Not to mention that the thought of going to Truebridge alone scared her a little, which was why she hoped he'd join her.
Then Renesmee walked up to him, whispered something into his ears. He gave her a quick nod then returned his attention to everyone else trying to come up with a good sollution.
There! That he still had that! Why had Oakey comepletely forgotten about
that jar He took his wand out and with a quick flick he said
"accio Jar." With only a moment to blink the Jar filled halfway up with knuts and sickles flew out of the common room where his belongings were placed for him during the feast. He grabbed at it with both hands and his chest and held it close.
"We'll use these for now, just the knuts." Oakey had not yet figured out what to do with his cuss jar when he started it a few terms back. It was mostly just to keep Dylan, and Max Lupin from saying things around first years, whose ears were too little for their discussions. After a while he didn't know what to do with it, and the coins just sat in the jar doing nothing. Now they could be of use, and Oakey had no problem parting with them. Especially now.
"Just enough to get yourself in an out once, and only if you don't have the knuts, or if you need change."
With that he set the Jar down on one of the barrells. He quickly took out a quill and scribbled out the words written on the jar before, and replaced it with.
'Access Knuts, Take only if you can't pay.'
He stepped out of the way, and hoped that the Hufflepuffs here understund the Trust System. He would not be happy if he heard a first years pockets filled with money grab knuts from his jar.
