Snails? Zander had no idea what they were talking about. But the thing about long distance relationships did make him break out into a sweat. If he got accepted for the internship he wanted… That’s what he’d have to do with Sophie and…

Wait a minute. He was going to take relationship advice from an eleven year old?

Uh. Back to the REAL problem at hand here.

Your turn, Rider.

Right, no pressure.

Actually there was a lot of pressure, Benzi.

Which is why all the waiting for his answer was starting to make Zander real apprehensive. Zander Adair trusted Beniz Rider… Sort of. Well, who could blame him okay? Zander hardly even knew the kid outside of prefecting. But he was trying to trust that Benzi would do the right thing. Granted, Zander had heard about that whole Evie/Haley situation so maybe Benzi wasn’t good at doing the right thing and sweet Merlin what—

Oh.

Yeah. See, Zander knew Benzi was gonna say the right thing ALL ALONG. There was never a doubt in his mind. Which is totally why he began smiling and nodding very enthusiastically along with everything the boy started saying. Wait, what was the question again? ”Yes, definitely.

On a trial basis was more than he could ask for, so he grinned at the sentiment. Also, nodding was happening because she could keep his badge for the rest of the feast. Not like Zander would miss it or anything. Honestly, he hadn’t even grown attached. And he had a feeling Benzi would let her wear his too. The boy looked like he’d be willing to do anything to keep the girl happy. Must’ve been some long-time friendship or something. Since he knew about her squirrels. Er. Snails? They were snails?

And all was great and good and they could finally go back to the tables and get some food and— A problem? Not another one. Zander Adair had faced enough problems whilst in this castle thank you very much. But he was listening. ”Oh,” he wasn’t expecting that one. Maybe this girl WAS meant to be a Ravenclaw. Zander wouldn’t have ever thought of that to be honest. Um. ”… I can see how that’s a problem.” Huh. ”I think the truth would be a good place to start? I’m sure they’ll be proud of you no matter what house you’re in.”

But he looked over to Benzi. Hopefully this guy knew a thing or two about her parents. Or a thing or two about how to solve problems. ‘Cause if his Quill articles didn’t say enough, advice wasn’t really Zander’s forte.

They miss their father. Long distance relationships are hard. Well Charlotte Kettleburn, haven't you hit the nail right on the head. "They're hard, but they're completely worth it," and that was all Benzi had to say on this matter. Because they totally were worth it. And they worked. So.. yes.

What were they talking about again?

Oh right. Gryffindor. The house of the stubborn. Totally not better than Ravenclaws, the house of the majestic and the wise FYI. But she didn't need to know this yet. One day perhaps he'd sit her down and explain the concept of secondary houses. His was Gryffindor, he was sure of it.

Raising his eyebrow, Benzi carefully nodded. "Only if you shake on it." No taking promises back with Benzi Rider! Unpinning his badge he carefully leaned forward when she blurted out her next confession and he froze as this new information sunk in, then ROARED with laughter. The seventh year fell back on his hands as he laughed and laughed, because THEIR FACES. Mr and Mrs Kettleburn's FACES when their daughter returns and tells them she's TRICKED THEM. That she'd been masquerading as a Ravenclaw the entire year. THIS WAS SO FUNNY TO HIM, YOU HAVE NO IDEA.

Oh, but they must have some inkling? No hat would sort Char into Ravenclaw. ... Could he be there when she told them? Pretty please with a snail on top?

"Oh kid, never change," he finally said, beckoning her closer. "C'mere so we can shake on that promise and you can walk around wearing your mismatched badges." Oh was he supposed to offer advice?


This was a good deal. Charlotte was HAPPY with this deal. She had to make sure a picture was taken with her wearing the two badges because there needed to be proof about how good she looked wearing them both. OBVIOUSLY SHE COULD ONE DAY BE A BADGEHOLDER FOR MORE THAN ONE HOUSE. OBVIOUSLY THAT WAS A POSSIBLE SITUATION!

"I'll do it good. For a whole year. And then we'll see." She would give Gryffindor a fair chance. "And then I'll write and TELL YOU BOTH all about it okay?" But she was STILL SURE that the hat was wrong. Even if it was nice to hear things that were supposed to be awesome Gryffindor traits that they both thought she embodied.

She scooted close enough for Benzi to put his badge on her and put her hand out for shaking. She also put her OTHER hand out to shake Zander's to save time. TWO SHAKES AT ONCE and also two badges at once.

"I didn't really think about the part where I'd have to go home and they would find out." She confessed. Really she hadn't thought it through in the SLIGHTEST.

.....

"Maybe I should send an owl so it gets there before I do. I could write 'mum I'm actually a Gryffindor'." That saved her actually TELLING them. And maybe they'd just be SO HAPPY TO SEE HER they wouldn't actually be mad about it?
