The REAL Sorting Hat: "Ravenclaw!" This monkey is bananas. William listened as intently as his emotionless mind would allow, playing with a roll that was slowly turning into tiny bits of nothing, just like his mind. "Wow mate, I'm sorry." was all he could say. He honestly didn't know what to say that would make this moment anymore awkward, but he had an idea of how to change it. He briefly wondered what his cousin would do in this situation; she was so much more braver and stronger than he was. He felt like a pathetic fish out of water, flapping around and almost empty.
While he was thinking, something snapped in his mind. He no longer felt depressed nor sad, though he still felt like breaking into tears at the news he had just heard. Be it from all the crying he had done in the past week, the rumors which had come horrifyingly true or just the fact that he had no idea how to fix his problem he stood suddenly, jumping up onto the bench beside Nancy and Jake and started singing,
"When in doubt, dance like a trout. When in doubt, dance like a trout." he sang in a drone-ish voice, moving his body like that of a fish and making fish faces as his eyes went cross-eyed. "When you're sad dance like mad, when you're sad, dance like mad." He continued, dancing weirdly, almost like the old disco kind of dance he had seen on TV one day while his mother was on the phone.
"When it's all too much and you can't take the stress dance like a fish!" He sang loudly, doing this fish dance once more before picking up a spoon off the table and singing again.
