Either way a shrug of his shoulders and his hand was back to surprise, surprise, dealing out more food for himself. "So, WHY aren't you in Ravenclaw? That theory of yours is pretty good."
Zack hadn't met many people yet. And he didn't know any Noah Garrisons, that was for sure. Waddling Twinkie Noah Garrisons or otherwise.
"Um... I'll do that." He was good at avoiding many things. Class, homework, grumpy house elves that don't want to share their food at 2 in the morning, Caretakers who thought he should be in bed at 2 in the morning...
"I don't really know I figured I'd get Ravenclaw. I mean, I'm pretty brilliant if I do say so myself, but I suppose it could be a weird balance thing or something. Maybe Gryffindor didn't have enough students for Gryffindor. Maybe some 5th year got ate by a Venemous Tentactula or something and I have to fill his spot, because... you know I'm smart, but I don't like LOVE books or anything." It was a good theory. He liked it.
"How did you get stuck here? Was it your interest in Dragons? Did the Hat take that as a sign of the courage and/or mental instability that is commonly associated with this house?" He was only half joking. Gryffindors were nuts. His cousin once painted himself in Hufflepuff colours to win points at a school spirit/camaraderie competition.
