anyone feel free to claim us as a station buddy [down in front] astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf Derf was running a little late, so the Hufflepuff bolted into the classroom like no one's business only to come skidding to a stop when he found his Potions savior in the form of Jessa Cambridge had the seat next to her already occupied. Holy flaming salamanders he was DOOMED now. Enchanted suitcase clutched to his chest, the third year sheepishly made his way towards the front and found himself a seat to reluctantly rest his bum on. He had a kinda desperate need to perform better in Potions now, bit of a side project really, but this was not looking good for today.
He could practically smell the fumes failure now.
Venturing a look over his shoulder towards Zoryn - of him his little project was for - Derf turned his attention forwards once more and attempted a bit of a forced grin of confidence towards Professor Healer. Derf STILL was not sure how to feel about the man seeing as he was one of those adults who seemed to constantly want to hand him a hammer a nails to build himself a bridge to help get over his first year trauma...but he was here. Mum and dad had fussed at him a bit about skipping out on lessons last term so...at least until they stopped with the weekly owls...he was here. Yes.
The dogs, however, well...they got BIG grins and Derf even offered his hand over his station for them to sniff and come love him while somewhere in the back of his mind he wondered if their presence would, you know, add to contamination risk that always came with 13-year-old hands.
