After paying to get in, Tobias was always hopeful that there would be a change in the Great Hall. You know... the table a bit cleaner, the food a bit more palatable. But no. Same as usual. "You'd think, given that we're paying, the we'd at least get some awesome food. My grandfather said the food was awesome." Tobias felt quite betrayed. He stopped at a place at the dusty table and looked slightly, but obviously, grossed out like always in here, and looked to Forrest to see if he was happy (content? not completely against?) sitting here too.
Dust.
The only thing Forrest saw was...
dust.
Had he really paid for
this? Every time, it was the same. Every time, he would get his hopes up for a change. Even a less thick layer of dust would do, but... he'd like to know just WHERE their money went to. He snorted as he walked next to Tobias and made a face looking at the table.
"You'd think the professors'd have helped, at least. Isn't it like, just a swish of wand for them? They could've--" He struggled between the thought that it wasn't quite their duty to clean around, and that they were responsible for students' health.
