Hogwarts RPG Name: Addison Ayers First Year | Catch Up up to mini-activity (Also, joining Drewett, Tessa, and Oda?)
Jackson returned Dorian’s greeting with the nod equivalent, and smiled at Ewan as he began speaking to him. He didn’t know what it was particularly, but Jackson was pretty fond of this kid. He was such a nice kid. Jackson had had a great summer as a matter of fact. “It was really good actually, thanks!” Had he forgotten about last year? Definitely not. Did his summer more than make up for it? Definitely yes. Between his visit to his parents, his mum visiting him at his cousin’s, and DUHHH his new kittyyy!
As the lesson started, Jackson listened as the Headmaster spieled about his attendance policy, but compared to last year, it seemed that nothing could really surprise Jackson anymore. Even this mushy floor was more of an interest than a shock. Jackson considered this professor and had to admit that so far, Jackson liked him. At the first question, Jackson raised his hand. “Well, especially if it’s dark out, it’s hard to see where you’re going or what you’re heading towards or away from… like safety, traps, or yea, a hoard of hinkypunks.” Was it a hoard? A herd? A flock perhaps? He nodded along at some of the other answers, while also ruling out who he would want to be stuck in survival mode with.
Okay… He had lied before. Jackson had thought that there was nothing that could surprise him anymore, but here they were… leaving this lovely bog to go… to a different bog? Jackson had become increasingly hesitant when it came to any ‘field trips.’ He followed the instructions, keeping his wand secure in his pocket. For the next question, Jackson considered the second one more. “If I was out here I wouldn’t trust any light source but my own, and I’d make a shield for those fireballs.”
When they arrived at the water, Jackson shook his head. Seriously? Had no one told the new Headmaster about that one time? Mental shrug. Maybe this will go how the grindylow thing was supposed to. Merlin, it had been quite some time since Jackson had been in one of these boats! He watched as everyone started frantically getting into the boats and he just waited until he saw a vacancy with Drewett, Tessa, and Oda. |
