And just when he thought the world was bad enough with seven hours of study A DAY, a stinkin' portrait supported the ludicrous notion. Zeke turned in his seat to face the portrait this time. One which he had seen... but not really SEEN seen. Who was she? Between that and the graves thing the other girly was saying, he was starting to wonder if education was the right path for him after all. There were alternatives, were there not?
"I fancy being in the land of the living... not the dead," and yes, SORRY MS. PORTRAIT PERSON FOR THAT DEATH REFERENCE. Ahem.
Was the girl serious though? He didn't think so, "You seem too happy and stuff to be serious, serious people from a lot." A factual observation of ever he heard one.
But blah blah blah... study had benefits, blah blah blah.
"I guess, but that doesn't mean I have to study EVERYTHING, just what I need. I don't need half of the subjects I'm taking right now, so I could technically drop them and then halve my study time." See, Gryffindor's could be local too, and HE could be logical.
Jokes though, he knew some, kinda. He listened first to the girls joke, and was immediately disappointed, "To get to the other side," he answered, "that's an old and lame one, I know a better one." Here he paused to set his notebook on the table, leaving it open so he could resume his work after. Then he cleared his throat.
"Have you heard about the Hufflepuff who gave his kneazle a bath?...." pause for effect "... he's still trying to get the fur off his tongue." BUDDUM PSSSCHHHH. Hilarious, right? At any rate, he giggled.
But on to more important things than making fun of Puffers, "Who are you?" he asked, directing his question to the lady in the portrait. He hoped he wouldn't offend, just, he had NO IDEA who she was.
