It can happen. Sure. It shouldn't have, but it did, and there was no point on regretting it. All she could do now was support the ones that were still fighting for their place in the Tournament, and..well, she actually liked the freedom it came with not being able to move forward.

A freedom from Zitnik. Entirely.

Then the ferret. Draco? Danika laughed, a very real and nice laugh, "I am positive the real Draco Malfoy vould have liked that" she commented, it was rather funny that Grayson decided to name him Draco, just when the real person had been turned into a ferret at least once in his lifetime.

It was rather funny.

"How do you manage to keep him so still?" because it was barely moving, and they weren't usually like that. "Do you mind?" she said, hand raised as if asking if she could pet him just a bit. Yes, Danika loved all things living, as hard as it would be to believe it, it was true.

There was much cheering and oohing and ahhing as he made his way through the Stands and plopped down next to Hecate Lefay.

"So, wadda I miss?" Vindictus asked and pulled out a sour gummy worm from his treat bag. "Want one?"

He held up his worm and slurped it. His lips puckered up and his eyes squinted shut in reaction to the unmistakable sour taste of the sweet.

To the unsuspecting, it looked like the Flying professor had his lips puckered up for a kiss.


As her attempt to make Danika feel better only got a simple nod, Grayson wasn't sure if she'd really said the right thing or not. It wasn't exactly something she was used to. Talking her way out of things, sure, but making people feel better was still something she was working on. The Durmstrang girl seemed like she was thinking about a lot, too, which led Grayson to simply pay attention to everything else. The conversations Professor Lafay was having, the maze, anything other than feeling awkward about making her new acquaintance think so much. But at the laugh, she grinned. That seemed so normal, and not awkward. "I guess. I mean, he might not want the reminder, but it's pretty funny," she commented. It seemed Danika must know the stories after all, which made her like the girl more.

A thoughtful look crept onto her face, though, at the next question posed. "I don't know that I do anything, really. He's just really comfortable with me. And maybe it's a bit 'cause of the cold. Like, he likes being curled up there 'cause it helps him keep warmer." Draco'd just always been like that. Kind of hyper when she was, but pretty calm otherwise. It balanced her out a lot. But she smiled again as it seemed Danika wanted to pet him. "It's okay. He likes pets, as long as you don't move too fast." Or do any of the long list of things certain people like her little brother kept doing. Or be a cat.

Her eyes widened as Professor Lafay spoke again, though, realizing the professor had noticed Draco. Probably because of her conversation with Danika. Turning her head slightly to look at the woman again, she wanted to shrug, but thought it would look bad. "Draco's only vicious when people are mean, but I'm always careful," she said, a bit hesitatingly. She didn't want it to seem like she was talking back. Not to Lafay.

But she was saved by Professor Vindictus suddenly showing up and taking the seat she'd left open between her and the Potions professor, and she bit back a giggle at how he was acting. "Hi Professor Vindictus," she said. Not wanting to be accused of being rude to professors. Like the Head Boy had been, when it came to Professor Lafay. And besides, she still sort of idolized her head of house after last term. And right now it almost seemed like he was rescuing her from the scary awkwardness that was dealing with the Potions professor's dislike of her pet. Although at least maybe it meant she wouldn't eat him, like she'd been afraid of.
