Acting as casual as he could, just not too casual, Gaston placed some of his chocolates, cauldron cakes and pumpkin pasties on one of the tables in the common room. This was the best way to be non-suspicious.

Soon he would have the attention he had wanted, whomever took a chocolate, cake or pasties directly from the table would become a 'number #1' Gaston fan. As for the others receiving from a friend...well..that was their loss.

But for one thing nobody would be able to tell these chocolates were indeed spiked. Gaston had been sure to hide every bit of evidence that he could.

With classes ending early for the day, Claudette had thought briefly about taking her lunch outside to eat al fresco, but a glance at the stormy sky of the charmed ceiling in the Great Hall told her the rain outside would make for no picnic weather. So she opted for eating at her house table, making a mental note to make plans with a couple of her friends for the next day, hoping for better weather. Though the rain wasn't all bad.. She wasn't sure why, but inclement weather always made her want to stay in, working over a bubbling cauldron. The blonde wasn't sure if it was the warmth of the potion over a flame or just the comfort of her favorite pastime.

Once she was finished with her lunch, the 16 year old started on her long journey back up to Ravenclaw Tower. She knew it didn't make a whole lot of sense to go all the way up there, then all the way back down when the Great Hall was that much closer to the dungeons, but she had none of her supplies to brew any potions with her. Besides, maybe it would be prudent to read from her book and figure out what she wanted to brew before she got back down there. It wasn't like she was in that much of a rush anyway, she had nothing else really planned for the rest of the day now that it was raining.

Once she stepped inside, Claudette took notice of those already present and took a seat in one of the plush chairs after giving Gaston a nod. She had known of him from her days at Beauxbatons being a former classmate, or at least of his reputation, and didn't think it would hurt to be friendly now that he was here for a time as well. "Bonjour Gaston," she said before pulling her potions journal from her tote bag. Now.. what to brew?

She flipped lazily through her journal, trying to decide on what to work on when her eyes darted up every now and again, finally falling on the plate of sweets on a table nearby. She looked at them curiously for a moment, then in the immediate vicinity. Where these for anyone? She wasn't sure.. though she supposed she wouldn't mind something a little sweet after her lunch..
