~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes. Charlie had busied himself getting his materials out for the lesson. By the time Will made an appearance, the Hufflepuff’s notebook, textbook and writing apparatus were out. He threw his younger friend a lazy grin and mounted back, “Hey, Will!’’ but in Swedish. William was one of the few persons he could actually converse with in the language. Then Keighley made her appearance, taking another seat beside him. All Char was missing now was one Dennis Walles, and he’d have been surrounded by the persons closest to him. “Hi, Keigh! Hi, Alfie!” Char noticed his roommate checking out the posters. “Some are rather spooky, don’t you think?”
Suddenly Carton was standing before them all. Human Carton, that is. Happy almost-Halloween to you too, Professor. While the man’s dog form seemed to have had nothing to do with Halloween, it did with disguising one’s appearance. “Another method is by changing one’s hair. The texture, the colour, even the style. I could take up a green mohawk, for example.’’ He looked over at Keighley, wondering what his girlfriend would think of that look. |
