It was very confusing for him- with his tutors, he was not allowed to do anything or talk to anyone until his homework was done and father-approved. But now he was inviting a FRIEND to HANG OUT and MAKE HOMEWORK MORE FUN. With SNACKS. It was almost too much for one twelve year old Hufflepuff's mind to handle. Not that he was complaining.

Today, he'd invited Anna to do Astronomy homework with him. It was partially because he thought she was great, and partially because he wanted to make sure she knew that the moon was still there when you couldn't see it. He had a whole little table set up for them: his books, his homework papers, his writing implements, a space for her things, plus cocoa and snacks for them both.

His father had never allowed him to have snacks or cocoa while he worked. He sat with his rainbow-striped-sock feet tucked up next to him on the couch, thinking about how much his life had changed.

Anna, on the other hand, did not know how to be alone and it was a vice of hers according to some. The neat thing about being in a castle was that castles tended to be full of people and even if she couldn't find a living person there were portraits literally everywhere who she could have a conversation with. Sometimes she wished she could jump into one of the portraits and see the world from that perspective - it must be fascinating! Ever so delighted that Brandon had invited her to hang out, she had brought her book bag along with her even though it was quite light considering it was without an astronomy textbook and parchment did not weigh much unless you had a LOT of it - which she did not.

Jumping down the steps two at a time, she easily spotted her blonde excellent hand holding friend and skipped over to him with a big smile on her face. She was still a little worried about the moon, and very confused about all the things too, but mostly she was just happy and relieved to see her friend and all the effort he had brought with him! "Hi Brandon," she hummed as she wrapped her arms around his shoulders for a gentle squeeze and left a quick kiss on his cheek. "I should have brought some snacks too. I still have bags of candies that all all about tasting the rainbow in my dorm."

She was in her rainbow striped toe socks! They were twins!
