 EVERYONE in here :3 astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf
Derf wasn't surprised when Zita started moving in for a hug and had his arms all ready to receive when the Slytherin instead went in for a fake out and DIDN'T hug. Because of his badge.
"Uh...prefect badges don't mean you can't----" But she seemed to figure that out on her own and NOW was hugging him. Phew. All felt normal then. For a hot minute there the fourth year was wondering if now if, perhaps, badges and HIM suddenly meant people would be too afraid to hug him or something. He was still Derf. Nothing really had changed. Save for growing a bit more over the summer and him fussing with his hair some more, he supposed.
And other things he was pretending did not exist at the moment.
He didn't think much of Zita sticking close and having her hands on him and whatever. It was normal, as far as he knew, of her behavior. Though the pause he took to turn a bit to face Diandra gave him a better view of the corridor and he spotted Jessa. Bright blues lit up seeing his first best friend and he gave a sorta not-so-subtle nod of the head that he needed to talk with her later. But since she was busy with Kimi and another girl he did not recognize at the moment, he left things at that.
"And you already know I'm in Hufflepuff," he grinned, tacking on to what Zita was saying about being sorted. And honestly, he couldn't picture Diandra in green robes...but stranger things had happened at Hogwarts and he wasn't going to rule out any real possibilities. "Where we would be lucky to have you." And cue a small amused look towards his blonde companion. "Everything going alright?" he asked the newcomer, recalling the slight struggle it had been getting onto the platform. Though that had all been easily rectified. "Thanks Zita," he smiled at her when she clearly offered up the compartment.
Then he suddenly felt a bit of a wiggle from within his enchanted pocket and he took a small sidestep away from Zita to slide his hand in. "You awake in there buddy?" he asked, looking down at his pocket with an impish smile and slight bounce as he rocked back on his heels.
