"Carl---Charlie, hey!" he chirped, flaking out on recalling the boy's preferred name. And then he took a look at the leg - that was giving a TWITCH, for the record - sticking out of the his mouth and noticeably winced. "Perfectly....I...can't really eat them."

And he was now going to turn away until the remains of the one chocolate frog were entirely consumed.

"It's....going," he sighed. "Got enough duplicates of the Founders and Dumbledore to make a neat card house. Least...ten rows, I reckon. Can't seem to get my hands on Bowman Wright or, ironically, Carlotta Pinkstone." At least ironic given what had happened the last few years at Hogwarts. "Sorta starting to wonder if...Pinkstone's have been discontinued given the nature of the wizarding world at large. But I'm sure there are some in circulation somewhere."

Derf's facial expression didn't go unnoticed, wondering if the older boy was sick of eating chocolate frogs. Just look at that pile of cards. He must've been consuming the confectionary on a daily basis. But then again, what does Charlie Kane know? He has yet to understand Derf's love for all things creature, in their real form or otherwise. "Why?" he continued looking at his prefect with a bit of confusion. Who'd turn down a good candy? "Are you lactose intolerant?" he pried further, wiping his hand on his uniform.

He snatched another rogue chocolate frog, snapped it in half and popped it into his mouth pressing the wiggling chocolate towards his right cheek with his tongue before biting it.

"OOOOH, the inventor of the Golden Snitch, AND...yeah, that witch..." Carlotta Pinkstone's advocacy had been one of the topics in History of Magic that roused arguments back in Ilvermorny. Charlie was told to steer clear away from the topic upon his arrival in Hogwarts, considering that he was under the tutelage of both the Williams twins. Charlie cleared his throat, and picked up Helga Hufflepuff's card. "You must have duplicates of super rare ones too...maybe you can trade that one for Wright's or Pinkstone's." Charlie made a thinking face, fanning himself with the card, "Have you tried asking in Quidditch Quality Supplies in Diagon Alley? Maybe they've got a patron there who's willing to trade cards with you." It may be a long shot, but it was worth a try.

"Or we can ask the whole house to eat chocolate frogs for you until our teeth fall off."
