#teamNoble astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf This was all very The Picture of Dorian Gray, wasn't it? The novel version, not the film. Novels always did tend to be the superior versions of storytelling anyway. Maybe they could stab Godric Gryffindor's portrait with his own sword. Yes, the sixth year was still salty over his near decapitation. Was anyone really surprised by that?
Of course his instincts had him stepping towards the headmaster...that is until he saw his Head of House's son moving that direction and he veered a hard right to move away from that forming group. Thankfully Missa had as well and he felt a haughty tug in his chest when he saw her stand with Professor Noble - because obviously she had selected him because she knew this Slytherin would do the same.
Even if that loud little Gryffindor was joining them. She was ... moderately tolerable. And, ironically, they shared a similar thought which - had she voiced it aloud - would have earned her a sliver of respect.
"Professor Noble," he spoke soundly as he approached the Potions Master. "Do you think the pureblood portraits would be on our side if we were to ask them the location of the other portraits? Like Helga Hufflepuff's or Godric Gryffindor's?" he inquired. Since his own house's founder had been particularly focused on certain changes, perhaps those two founders who had historically been more opposed to Slytherin would be more easily betrayed.
