 Sliding back home from the Staff Table Mom says I have no sense of direction, so I packed my bags and right.
Torrance was left in the dust err...well the puddles by the Head of House guy. He must be a surprisingly fast angry Olympic power walker. He slide on a Rain puddle and skidded to a halt before bumping into the rear of the Angry Man. He fell on his bum making a bit of a splash. Catching just the tail end of his Loud Lecture. 100 points gone, and they all had to clean up the mess of a food fight. They were allowed magic but Tory didn't know how to do any of that Cleaning Magic mumbo-jumbo. He never really watched his Aunts clean. Maybe save Aunt Charlie. She has 3 babies so there was a lot of....mumbo-jumbo... for her to clean from them. He was with her and Uncle Saul all summer so he had to help take out stinky diaper trash. "I can take out Trash." He just kind of said out of the blue. Maybe it was to the Head of House maybe it wasn't. He just sort of said it since Sanitation work was on his mind.
You should see him. Tory could lift at most 2 big bags of hefty garbage outside and them push one big trashcan to the curb. No trash could be not-lifted by Torrance Ugo Spades.
Then his stomach growled. He looked to the Table and it suddenly occurred to him. Bentley and Blaire's food fight Retaliation against the Prefects left him starving. He ran up to go hit the Hag with food only to be thwarted by his Uncle's talk of keeping Order. He patted his pockets that the spaghetti ammo was still in. No that would be a last resort.
He began peering at each of the different food items. Something must be salvageable...like soup. Soup would be unharmed by rainwater, and hey if some bread got in it it would just be matzah ball soup right?
Torrance could help clean by clearing the table of any and all foods that could be eaten. So he sat up from the puddle worked his way around the Professor guy, and sat down.
Aha! Lucky!! He looked at a dish which had a lid sitting over top it. He lifted the lid and.......NOTHING!?!
Oh this is just as bad as putting an empty carton of milk back in the Fridge!! What kind of Monsters!?! |
