Originally Posted by Felixir It had taken Abey a little while to get to the room where ALL the action was. He, being an Abey, had stopped by the dining saloon first, in order to satisfy his growling tummy. THEN, of course, he had got mega distracted, because the abundance of COLOURS of the food and drinks all laid out had sent him into nothing short of a frenzy. IT WAS ACTUALLY JUST SO AMAZING OUT THERE. Abey had been so overwhelming by the millions upon millions upon BILLIONS of nuances of colour that he'd nearly passed out in his excitement.
After sampling pretty much everything (he HAD to), Abey had picked out some drinks and began traversing the ship, looking for his villain. It didn't take him long at all. "HIIIIII DATE MATE!" Abey trilled, appearing by Derf with not two but actually five glasses of colourful drinks somehow carefully gathered up in his arms, hopefully in colours that his DATE MATE could distinguish and appreciate as well, because he wanted to share the fun actually! "I got us some drinks! I couldn't decide so I just got as many as I could carry." He had maybe spilled some down his suit, but his clothes were charmed not to stain so actually it was all fine. "Are you allergic to anything? I can't remember."
Oh. OH. HOLD ON JUST ONE SECOND.
Abey couldn't applaud yet - though he wanted to - but he could cheer. "YEAH! WOO, YOU GO MR. GROUNDSKEEPER MAN!" Abey didn't really know what kind of dancing that was supposed to be or if it was even proper dancing at all (he didn't think it was) but he liked watching people move to the BEAT.
Or... against the beat, which was probably a better way to describe what the groundskeeper was doing.
BUT IT DIDN'T MATTER. "WOOOOO!"
Okay...OKAY....he could do this...he was TOTALLY practicing the words in his head and was TOTALLY going to see if he could cut in with Valerie Gray and her date for a dance ... EXCEPT ALL THE DISTRACTIONS HAPPENED WHEN ABEY WALKED IN! "HI HI HI!" he grinned, nearly throwing his arms around his Gryffindor when he stopped mid way and flapped his arms as though he were about to take off because that was A LOT of drinks in Abey's hands. "Oh great!" he chirped as he selected two at random and downed one almost immediately. "Uh...no...no allergies-s-s," he said as an afterthought while working on drink number two. Abey had to have FREE arms so they could DANCE after all. "Unles-s-ss...you reckon there are animal parts-s-s in any of thes-se drinks?" Well...hopefully not any in the TWO he had just drank at least.
Taking drink number three - because apparently all his scrambling around and dancing with people had made him more thirsty than he had initially thought - Derf began taking a sip from that one when he spotted Stasya and Cameron dancing together. BOTH of them were on his list so he needed a dance with them...maybe he could ask Stasya to be next? But he also needed to dance with Abey who was right HERE right now... WHY MUST HIS DANCE LIST BE SO LONG?!
WHY MUST SO MANY PEOPLE BE SO NEAT AND AWESOME?!
Glancing back at Abey over the rim of his glass, Derf felt a bit of a FUNNY wiggle in his tummy. He couldn't REALLY explain it but it was there and made him finish his third drink rather quickly because he just had the URGE to tell something to Abey. "You kinda confus-s-se me," he blurted out with some well meant pensive blinking. "But in a GOOD way...I think. But s-s-still confus-s-sing." He wasn't sure why he was saying all this but now that the door had been opened it was kinda hard to shut it. "Got even MORE confus-s-sing after S-Science Club with Jes-s-ssa and everyone."
Actually, a lot of things were kinda confusing. Like how girls kept blushing around him. Something that he could RIGHT NOW IN THIS MOMENT admit to kinda liking but didn't quite understand WHY. Like when Stasya or Natalie blushed at him. He liked that. A lot. Actually...he kinda wanted to go tell them that right now FOR SOME REASON. He liked it when Emmeline did to...come to think of it...and he wasn't toooooooooo sure what to think of James asking her because he sorta seemed like TROUBLE...but if she was happy that was all that mattered to Derf. Maybe he should go tell HER that too. Jessa didn't really blush around him...but he was okay with that. Same with Hazel. Abey didn't so much..why didn't Abey blush at him MORE? He kinda sorta wanted Abey to blush at him too. What?
Something that WASN'T confusing was the fact that Valerie Gray was MAKING HER WAY IN THE GENERAL DIRECTION OF HIM. Okay...so not really. It actually looked like she was trying to LEAVE but that meant he had an IN! Suddenly with a reluctant burst of confidence Derf, rather than doing the normal thing and walking TOWARDS her, did what foolishly little love-struck second year Hufflepuffs do. He shouted. "VALERIE GRAY! I THINK YOU ARE THE MOS-S-T BEAUTIFUL VEELA IN THIS ROOM AND I KINDA SORTA AM IN LOVE WITH YOU! I ALS-S-SO WEAR A S-S-SHIRT WITH YOUR FACE ON IT UNDER MY ROBES-S-S AND S-STUFF! AND I S-SLEEP WITH A PICTURE OF YOU UNDER MY PILLOW THAT JESSA CAMBRIDGE GAVE ME AND ENO UPSTEAD TOOK. WOULD YOU PLEAS-S-SE DO ME THE HONOR OF DANCING WITH ME EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY OUT OF MY LEAGUE?!"
.........what? He had not meant to say about...half of that information.
Not that Derf wasn't always honest about things, but even he KNEW this was a little overboard.
Or...well...he WOULD have though it was overboard if his heart was not DRUMMING IN HIS EARS LIKE A GALLOPING CENTAUR'S HOOVES.
