*whistles* *crashes* <3 astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf Derf had been down here many times since his first year, though all those times had been to explore mostly. Today though, today was different and he had an armful of Charms texts and one on Advance Transfiguration to prove it. Having been to just a handful of the chess club meetings, Derf could hardly say that he had taken to the game...but it HAD sparked his curiosity and want to live a part of wizarding history. And what better place to do that than at Hogwarts, right? Maybe he was feeling a little more devil may care this term that before because of what had happened in Dufftown last term - things changed and you got loads of perspective when you were under the influence of Dark magic, you know? - but he felt like if there was any time to start implementing repairs, well, better now than later?
Not to mention he reckoned it was going to take him several terms to get everything right since he had to juggle this side project with all of his other ones. And prefecting. And hopefully quidditch. And, well, the list went on and on.
Casting Lumos as he made his way through the dark corridors leading to the first chamber, Derf had NOT been expecting to hear VOICES...and for a hot second almost jumped with glee thinking the voices were coming from the pipes which CLEARLY meant that he had finally learned some parsletongue, but alas. “...........WHO ELSE IS DOWN HERE?!” he called out, his voice now joining his footsteps as he approached.
