That seemed like a real no go topic. Yep, she was really going to have to watch that.

"Er..a small bit. Basically, I only know what I heard from my classmates when they got back." Information that had left her intrigued, for sure. Though, not everything had been all that complimentary... "Is it true that there's a giant squid that lives in a lake?" she asked, handing over the boxes that she'd picked up. That had had everyone talking the most, as far as Pukwudgie house had been concerned.

"I have to ask, if you prefer Bertie Bott's and those Fizzy things," she couldn't remember the proper name, they didn't have them in America, "why do you have so many chocolate frogs?" She usually liked to stock up on the snacks she actually liked herself.

Honestly...the secret agent thing sorta went hand in hand with it all. At least from the stuff he had watched and read with his dad anyway - so basically Derf's imagination was going into OVER DRIVE right now with possibilities and the, well, attempt to downplaying it all only made him MORE wild with these thoughts. Which he thankfully kept entirely to himself.

"Oh yeah! Bartholomew Henry!" Derf chirped a bit TOO eagerly. Though mention of the Black Lake brought up OTHER thoughts and memories which, well, Derf was playing ostrich to in the moment. "He and I are pretty close...though I'm closer to Theoros. He is one of the centaur who live in the Forbidden Forest." And, well, there was no need to dwell much more on the IMPS topic - though he THOUGHT the entire school had come over in that vehicle but obviously not. Talking about the interesting inhabitants of Hogwarts was far more appealing anyway. "He can talk too, the giant squid I mean. Though sometimes it's kinda hard to get him to make an appearance. Probably busy with the merpeople."

Chuckling a bit, Derf ruffled his hair and stood proper again. "I'm really only after the card," he admitted. He had a THING with eating chocolate in animal form...especially those enchanted to MOVE like amphibians. "I give the chocolate away for the most part."

Glancing over towards the register, the Hufflepuff gave his stack another quick count to make sure he had them all and then - after a bit of a dramatic pause to calculate his finances - he spoke once more. "Once I pay for all of these...and assuming you like chocolate...you can have one if you want." Just as long as he got to keep the card.
