Hang on... what was the headmaster doing here. Too many Cardens? There weren't THAT many Cardens at Hogwarts though? Obviously, there was only one that Bel particularly was fond of, but she didn't think there were too many, and Mercy and Alex were nice. Chloe wasn't elaborating on whatever she'd been saying before, and now Derf was back too and Bel was still oblivious as to why he'd gone in the first place, but at least the charms professor was nice? Bel turned in her seat in time to see (a) Max hauled to his feet. Yes that was a Carden. Her favourite Carden. In fact there wasn't a single other Carden who compared to that Carden. She--- waitwhat? FOUR other ones? What was the headmaster on abo-- finally, Bel saw, and Bel gaped.
Aaaaand she entirely missed the question about hiccup cures because right now she could see multiple copies of her boyfriend's face. Polyjuice? Whaaaat. Bel blinked as the headmaster said all that and something about student leaders and yada yada yada. All at once she understood. Firstly what Chloe had been on about, and secondly why Derfael had rushed off (and she understood that and supported his reporting whatever this was whole-heartedly) and thirdly that Dopple, as lovely and grandmotherly as she seemed, was also borderline senile, and lastly? That she, Bel, completely needed to do better at noticing what was going on around her.
And now they were supposed to... drink some potion and get the hiccups? Bel went ahead and did that without really paying any attention and continued staring around at the multiple Cardens.
WHICH ONE WAS HER CARDEN? WAS SHE A CRAP GIRLFRIEND FOR NOT KNOWING?
*hic* *HIC* She squinted at each of them one at a time.... and since she was focusing so hard on the Carden Conundrum, Bel almost immediately forgot about the hiccups and inadvertently, she was cured.
