The Friar had stooped closer to the fountain. The multi-colored spheres were indeed very curious to him, but as Norah soon explained, it was candy. "I've never had candy before," he said mournfully. "It was invented after I died." Pure sadness about that.

"Oh. That was very nice of Professor Myers, then!" Alfred nodded and smiled over at Esme. "What do they taste like?" he asked curiously. He was used to watching people eat by now, but candy! He had never experienced candy before.

One of the first years, Hattie, spoke up, too. "Sweets. Yes, I've heard candy is very sweet!" He just wished he could envision, or rather en-taste? the flavor of candy. "Ah, Professor Myers, it's all right! I will simply live vicariously through you all!" It was really no big deal!

"However, I have a proposition for you all! We could play.....a game?" he asked, glancing at the newest Badger [Brady] to join them. "....You all could try to throw candy through me for points? I could zip around!" The Friar swooped upwards toward the ceiling.
