 too late? tree decorating? hi? *sits* astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf
Sprinting and sliiiiiiiiiiiiding to a stop inside the Great Hall, Derf was a little surprised to see that he was the ONLY student present for the festivities. Not that he minded so much. He was used to attending all sorts of a adult functions with dad while he was still a department head at the Ministry and mum had her fair share of outings as well. Shrugging internally, the first year approached the dais and gave all the trees a bit of a stink eye. He should have known that he was being too optimistic to hope for fake trees like the one he had at home for the holiday. Which was why the bounce in the Hufflepuff's step vanished in an instant and manners forgotten. No offense meant, Hogwarts faculty. The intention of saying hello and happy holidays was there...just buried under some anxiety.
"None of them," he squeaked with a grand wave of the hand at all the trees. "...are fles-s-sh eaters, right?"
Not even the presence of the Healer's dogs was enough to distract him from memory...and THAT was saying something.
