right.
Derf wasn't born yesterday, you know? And while he did have a good chuckle at Emmalyn's attempt, again, at being breezy in his presence (well, almost his presence since he wasn't literally in the same space as her just yet) he recognized the hurried intonation and all it did was encourage his steps forward. Which was when he heard another voice, one he was not familiar with, whispering something to his housemate.
"What stuff?" he asked as he finally came into view. No, this wasn't the space he had intended to occupy, but here they were. Cauldron? Potions brewing? It was too dimly lit for him to make out much else, but he certainly recognized the cauldron. And a...table cloth? Were they having a picnic here? That was, well, curious. Not that he was passing any sort of actual judgement.
"Hey, Emmalyn," he grinned at the second year before his eyes drifted over to the Ravenclaw who he could not place. Dim lighting certainly didn't help. At all. "Erm...hold on a second..." he said, casting a Nox to put out his wand so he could conjure a couple bluebell flames to help illuminate the space better. Was always better to have conversations with people when you could SEE their faces, yeah? "There. That's..." And then his bright blues fell on their spread and, well, it didn't really give him much of an answer.
Other than at least he knew they were not attempting to brew Polyjuice Poition. Which was something he did NOT recommend doing. Speaking from personal experience here. Just don't.
"...better?" The fifth year ruffled his hair. "So....am I...er...interrupting a date?"
