Maxie had greeted the new professor with his usual nod and uncomfortable smile. While only just a second-year, Maxie had already gotten accustomed to Hogwarts and its game of Musical Professors. This one seemed pretty fine so far, but it was still early on.. Anything could happen.
The Hufflepuff had been very seriously considering ignoring the boot altogether, but before he could think of a feasible reason why, Nina Castillo - the very girl who had kissed his cheek without even a proper introduction - was urging him on. Having properly misunderstood the situation, Maxie and his gangly limbs hurried forward, past the Slytherin girl and her nice-smelling curls, to the boot and whatever judgement it would pass unto him.
but she hadn't been speaking to him at all, but to Dakest. How did Maxie know this? Because the other boy had thanked her, even.
Cool. yeah, cool. Maxie decided, as he waited his turn, to stare at the floor. healthy coping mechanisms.
He wriggled out of his sneaker (a very clean Off-White Air Jordan, and slippered his foot into the spurred shoe. It shrunk down, as was to be expected and that was where the embarrassment began to leak in. Hopping? Hopping? No, he most certainly didn't want to. It didn't matter that everyone else already had or was going to. Maxie was not the type to jump off a bridge after his friends and he wasn't the type to hop around either.
But the boot.. was on.
It was on.
and people were waiting.
and his brow had begun to sweat.
and it somehow felt as if the boot were becoming smaller- tighter- almost uncomfortably.
"F-fine," He grunted, hopping once, then twice, and then once more for an unhappy three- and all the while he was as red as red could be. Miserable, Maxie flinched as the boot coughed and opened up a mouth the Hufflepuff wasn't happy to see.
"ISTJ-T."
Relieved, and curious, Maxie stepped out of the now much larger boot and rushed off to a quiet corner where he could put back on his Jordan and be miserable in peace.
