astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf Anna had, in fact, already been up to her dorm room and back down for one of Professor DeVries' favors (she was going to have to make triple sure to swing by his office with one of her own goodie bags) and then back up to her dorm again for a quick dance with her pillow (which would explain the feathers in her hair as her pillow had a small tear in it that mum kept mending and Anna kept picking at the thread because that was how the hole had appeared there in the first place) and was bouncing her way back into the common room once again with the energy of someone who was on sugar high. Only that wasn't the case for this Hufflepuffle. She was just perpetually this way.
It was the pirate heiress genes. Probably. Or MAYBE her crib had been placed under the Curse of the Billywig when she was an infant.
It was no surprise to her to find student (s) in the common room but what WAS surprising was the gecko the boy had in his possession. Anna, of course, was well versed in geckos and lizards thanks to her little cousin so it was unlikely that she would innocently insult them or their owner in mislabeling them.
"Oh my gosh they are so cute!" Anna chirped as she came to a skipping stop beside the boy. "They are a leopard gecko, aren't they? My little cousin adores lizards and geckos, so I have learned a little about them thanks to her. I think my favorite fact about them is that unlike a lot of other geckos they DO have eyelids and not only that but they are translucent and moveable so they can blink as well as close their eyes while they sleep. Have you been to Professor Hadleigh's reptile house? Oh, well, I suppose you most certainly have been seeing as you are much older and wiser and loads of Hogwarts experiences already. Has he made friends with the other geckos and lizards there?"
