"It's no problem! Thank you for your donation!" He smiled brightly at the young lady once again, before turning back to the boy with the other tee.

Adi wondered.

"You're definitely helping out, young lad. Your own school, too! I'm sure Hogwarts will have plenty of new supplies for you to use in class when you get there, all thanks to your donation." And others, of course. Sherman beamed at him again.

He'd look dashing in that tee, he would.

And without waiting for a reply, she was off to the petting zoo, slipping through the crowded streets once more.

A bag? As the girl spoke to him, Sherman smiled back broadly, peeking inside of it. That.. was a lot of coins, and he at once set to counting them. Who was this girl's father? Was he here? Could he shake hands with him personally and thank him for- son of a garden gnome, that was FORTY galleons.

This girl was an angel sent from above.

"Wait! Wait, you forgot your.." But she was gone.

".... t-shirt."

And he was going to have let her take one for her father, too.

Although, she would wait before donating those sickles and knuts and ask another question. "What kinds of materials?" Was he referring to quills and parchment, because those things are often brought by the students.

At least in Beijing's day that's what happened. "Desks and chairs?" those were the kind of things students couldn't bring themselves. She wanted to wait until it was absolutely clear about where her money was going to go.

She tapped her long finger nails on the table, they were magical after all.

"The materials repossessed by the goblins include crystal balls for divining, Astronomy telescopes, ingredients the children use in their Potions classes, and furniture from the healing ward- lately, any students injured or requiring healing had to be moved to St. Mungo's for proper treatment- among other things." Did that satisfy her question?

Sherman tried not to look at those long nails. They were.. they were going to get him.. his face... it would be clawed...

Carter would protect him, wouldn't he?

He nodded politely at his fellow Governor. He had things to discuss... like if Destiny had picked out his tie... but that could wait until the donors were gone.

He nodded along. Right. Unfortunately this money wasn't going toward... improvements, but rather to restore Hogwarts. Hopefully the funds... or at least the pawned off goods, would be recovered soon, then this money could go toward improving things.

But, unfortunately, that wasn't the way it looked like things were going to happen.

He smiled again as another one approached. But this girl was gone before he could offer a souvenir.

Speaking of Carter. Sherman leaned closer as he began placing the galleons from the bag into the jar. "Forty five galleons so far," he whispered. That was fantastic for only a few minutes into the festival. Surely more people would come around?

He willed more passersby to drop coins into the jars. COME, PEOPLE. COME DONATE. DO IT FOR HOGWARTS. DO IT FOR THE CHILDREN.

Do it for the tie. Yes, the tie. The zoo tie.
