The lid of the box slid ever so slightly to one side. It was a sliding top, then. And his father had sealed it with magic! Jaemin wiggled a bit in his seat and bounced once before reaching to stick his fingers into the slight opening. What was in hereeeee? It had to be something good, right? His dad had said before that he was going to send Jaemin something to keep him busy at school...
The small boy gave the other boy a little bit of a look, warning him to keep his hands to himself, and opened the box. The inside was filled with...
"PLANTS!" he shrieked excitedly, forgetting that the entire common room didn't really need to know. "Dad sent me plants!"
The thing was full of miniaturised plants, just like his dad's glass tanks at home!
Oh good, he'd thought of Alohomora. Slytherins were smart, see? Even first years. Olly watched in interest, but kept a reasonably distance, as the boy opened his box. What was inside it? Candy? Olly liked getting candy from home. But it turned out not to be candy. Instead...plants? That was a weird thing to send, at least in Olly's opinion. But this boy seemed excited about it.
"What kind of plants?" He asked, peering closer. Not that he would really know the different kinds.
"Do you like plants? Like Herbology?" Obviously he liked these plants. Olly had not known anyone before who had such an interest in plants except Professor Myers who taught Herbology.
