Said sucker seemed to attach a bit to her face, which Chloe decided was as close to a kiss from Mr. Henry as she was likely to get (or wanted to get, to be honest).

"It is very much my pleasure to meet you, Mr. Henry. I'm Chloe Maxine Kettleburn, Ravenclaw. And Derf is definitely my best best friend, and I hope you know that boys and girls can be friends without being kissy faced about it. I'm sure the same can be said for boy squids and girl squids. Do you have a partner, or is this a single occupancy lake?" Because that sounded so lonely to her, and she'd come visit him every day.

And since Derf was plenty distracted, and Chloe took advantage of his inattention by grabbing the rock out of his hand and tapping as close to his nose as she could. "Bother bother bother."
Derf was REALLY enjoying watching Chloe interact with the squid. It sorta reminded him of watching Natalie with the mooncalves a few terms ago and it warmed his heart and brought a BIG smile to his face. Though he would have preferred she not mention 'kissy faced' because that made his skin pepper in regrettable goosebumps and he was rubbing his arms subconsciously as a result.

Though her next question certainly tickled his curiosity. WERE there more? There HAD to be...squids didn't just APPEAR out of nothing, you know? There were eggs involved and stuff. And now Derf was wondering how Bartholomew Henry, a big boy squid, was managing all on his own IF he were really on his own.

"O-oi!" he laughed as he playfully swatted at the rock she was half bopping his nose with - though it was more like she was bopping his cheek with it. Though he really didn't mind, not really. And she had given him fair warning that she would attempt this very thing so it wasn't like he could pretend to be surprised.
