Gabe smiled just a little, which probably looked strange and creepy on the older man he was emulating. He had his guess, though...because while that might've been obvious to just anyone, he'd only told one person about that ambition in specifics.

...and, well...the dog had just admitted to taking twelve owls. They'd had that conversation, too.

"...and you're Tobias Tempus."
At the yes, Toby allowed himself a smile too, except on his dog form it just made his tail wag again. Though still, he didn't realise. He'd got it right? That was an awesome feeling.

But still Toby stood by for Gabriel's guess, eyes on the dude in front of him as he wondered for perhaps the millionth time who the gentleman was.

"That's right. I'm Toby," the boy said with a nod, which must have looked ridiculous coming from the dog. He didn't bother to make any name corrections; that wasn't the point right now. The Hufflepuff was about to ask who Gabe's disguise was, but at that moment he heard Botros' voice ring out and turned to give him his attention.

"Then give me the parchment you wrote what you want to be on to make sure you got your look right, after that you can take off the belt and put it on the desk." Botros came to stand next to the mirror. "Class is dismissed, you may pack your things and leave then." He'd tidy up with the elves after they all left, it was no problem.
Ooh, moment of truth. He got to see just how the disguise had worked. Toby turned to smile at Gabe again, and held up a hand in a sort of... wave of thanks (again, picturing a dog doing that was bizarre), and said, "Thanks for working with me, Gabriel." Then it was time to SEE this disguise and Toby stepped in front of the mirror to see.

Dude... duuuuude. That was really cool, it was like he was ACTUALLY looking at Staco. Tobias experimented for a few seconds, waving at the mirror (and seeing the dog hold up a paw), moving his head around (which the dog did exactly the same, to his great amusement), and finally smiling at the sight, at which point Toby finally noticed the tail-wagging.

He'd have liked to have stand in front of that mirror for ages, looking closer and experimenting to see how the disguise portrayed different things, but there were more students waiting to see their reflections. Toby allowed himself one last lingering look at his beloved dog in the mirror, before stepping away again.

After adjusting his parchment to say 'Staco, my border collie', Toby handed it to Botros with an accompanying "Great lesson, sir. Thanks," then took off the belt and added it to the pile on the desk. It was kinda sad, though, because now he missed Staco on top of everything else. The Hufflepuff did his best to focus on the fact that it had been a good lesson, and went off to pack up his things before heading off.
