Taking a breath he said "Its not certain you'll get sick. But one part of the relay is to eat ghost food."

Scratching his head Sir Nicholas racked his brain for the best way to explain the race. With a glance at the three staffers present he turned to respond to the student’s questions both Anas and Benjy’s. "Vomit is a poor word for it but essentially it's a relay race with a partner where you first have to stuff your tummy's full of a tray of tasty ghost food and then catch a piggyback ride on your partner’s back from the starting line, around the table to the other side and back."

Pausing to look over at Professor Bellaire the Gryffindor house ghost murmured softly "Isn’t that just how the vomit relay goes Professor?"

It didn't cross his excited mind that eating ghost food could make the living vomit it up.

As much as Terry admired the ghosts, being touched or rather their bodies going straight through him was not a pleasant experience. The sixth year shuddered as Sir Nick's hand passed through his shoulder. "Its okay" he shrugged it off. Ghosts were cool, he wasn't one to hold a grudge with the dead.

He listened to the explanation of the rules and wrinkled his nose at the thought. "You want us to eat this?" he asked glancing at the food and then back up at the Gryffindor House Ghost. "Is this even safe for living consumption?" Ghosts maybe but they were already dead. Terry wasn't willing to join their ranks quite yet.

"What do we get if we win?" he asked. Because that could be the incentive to participate. Right now Terry wasn't willing.

"Can Trifle ever be bad? Also, what is Yorkshire Pudding?" Ana asked curiously. She should probably attempt to get used to English food but she had no idea what most of it was. She'd been shocked around Christmas to learn that mince pies didn't actually include meat. Slightly relieved as well since it had seemed strange that anyone would want to eat a pie straight from the packet without cooking it if it had of contained meat products.

"I want to participate," Ana said, nodding decisively at the same time to show how serious she was. Only, she didn't want to participate with a professor. That would be too strange for her.

Any food could be bad if it was left long enough. This stuff looked like it had been around for a while. Still, at least it wasn't completely moldy or smelly. It was probably edible, it just might make you sick after a while. Quite a short while.

"The jelly should be fine. But the sponge is probably stale and the custard and cream have probably turned." Though it might not be too bad, if he could eat around all the horrible bits. Wait, she didn't know what a Yorkshire Pudding is? He nodded in agreement to Benjy's description and then continued to explain. "Its basically batter, in a sort of cup shape. They're amazing when they're just crisp." Not soggy like these ones.

His eyes widened when she claimed she wanted to participate. Did that mean she wanted him to too? "You want to eat this stuff?" he asked her. "I can do the piggybacking but I'm not sure about the eating." Urgh. No vomiting for him.

He was feeling a little reckless today. What of it?

Ha! See? Another person who clearly loved their food as much as him. "If that was mine, it wouldn't have even seen the dish." Seriously, he'd eat it straight out the bowl it was set in. All of it. Puddings were the best part of the meal.

"I'm Terry by the way" he introduced himself casually. Might as well if they were sticking around.
