But there was a Ravenclaw drawing something and he looked older, so there must be something interesting going on that Carl did not know about. He lingered nearby and while pretending to observe the gemstones, peeked at the drawing. Oh, it was just the hourglasses. Except, there was something wrong - "You drew too many stones for Ravenclaw." He pointed out.

Oops. He just admitted that he was staring at the boy's work!

The hardest part about drawing was making sure that all of his colours were sharpened enough that he could use them for exactly what he needed. Blunt pencil strokes bought nothing to a delicate background piece. In fact, it was the quickest way to ruin something you had been working hard on. He had recently been dabbling in ink art, but wasn't used to having no margin for error so he wasn't that confident.

Although he wasn't at all confident in this form of art either.

Performing was his art.

Looking up through his eyelashes, Rooney was greeted with the appearance of a Hufflepuff. "No I didn't." Who said he was drawing the actual standings right now?

Maybe he'd put Hufflepuff into the negatives.
