Considering the cup and all...? But one look at the screaming demon child Gryffindor in front of him totally changed his mind.
Why did that girl always insist on being so... Dramatic. Hmph. And she still hand't apologized for taking a huge bite out of his arm. The third year wasn't surprised to see that no one had run to the obnoxious girl's side. Who would want to work with that? Not this Gryffindor. Housemates or not, Zahra was evil. And that was that.
Now, back to his group. His delightful group of cool people, who weren't demonic and evil in any way. Well he hardly knew Sophie, but... If Grayson liked her then it had to mean that she wasn't evil or demonic, right? Right. It had to. Grayson was cool. The three of them. Good. Hopefully Zahra wasn't listening in because nope no room for a fourth member here... Ha... Ha... Ha...
Something funny? Okay, he could try! He wasn't much of comedian, but he had been laughed at a lot this term. Granted, at and not with. But still. People laughed. "Alright,-um- yeah that sounds pretty good," Hikers. That sounded like fun. "I think I vote for the skit," they did not want to have to hear this child try to sing. Or come up with lyrics. Now that, would be a terrible situation. "What do you think, Simon?"

Alright. Down to business.
"I'm not much of a singer," he said. Truth be told, he had only ever sung in the shower so he didn't know whether he was good or not. And singing could be embarrassing, he didn't want to make a fool of himself in front of everyone. Nor did he want Zander or Sophie to do the same. Anyway, back to business. "I vote skit. Hikers sound great to me. So we should work on costumes or just get down to writing the script? Or should we just improve?" he said with a decisive nod.
Sophie caught Zander looking away and followed his gaze. For a moment, she thought he was maybe wishing he'd worked with Zahra, but then he seemed kind of confused by her actions which earned him a smirk from Sophie. Sophie was so amused with this class in so many different ways. He was on board with the hiking skit, too, which was COOL.
Sophie turned toward Simon, because it seemed like the final answer relied on his vote. OHHH, COOL! He was! Sophie grinned and nodded once.
"Okay then. Hiking, it is," she said. Good thing they didn't REALLY have to go hiking, because she'd never been hiking before and certainly couldn't survive a hike plus a Yeti attack.
"Costumes should be easy." She picked up her book bag and slung it over her shoulder.
"We have our bags for packs. Errr...I don't know what else we'd have..."
Her eyes suddenly lit up and she looked at both boys.
"Let's say we're fifteen in this skit. Oh, no--SIXTEEN! We're sixteen, and...one of you is my boyfriend," she so boldly declared. That way, she'd go into this knowing somebody would defend her to the end and maybe die for her in the Yeti attack. Without even a flinch, she added,
"So which one of you will it be?"
