Default Kitty and the GNOMES!!!
astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf

Digging and digging some more, Derf had now taken on a position like a dog digging in the dirt after something. Like those dogs that would dig in hole looking for foxes and such. Bum in the air and head down focused on his work, the Hufflepuff began making his way arooooooound the tree in a counterclockwise fashion - clockwise could have worked too, but Ambrosia had nudged him this way and he was inclined to listen to his abraxan, you know? Which was why he gave a bit of a jump when Kitty spoke to him. "Or if you are the s-s-sort who is-sn't practiced with a S-Severing Charm," he replied with a sheepish shrug. Not an exclusively muggle method. "Or a canine."

The tree was rather loose now and he SUPPOSED that if he had a firm enough grip and upper body strength that he COULD probably pull it free? He was going to give it a try. Unfussed by all the dirt under his fingernails, the second year set to do just that when SOMETHING lept out from the ground AT him.

"AAAAAAAAAH!"

Speaking of canines, you know?

Flailing about a bit, it did not take Derf long to figure out just WHAT was on him and for WHY. Which made every muscle in his face DROP and the GUILT that ate away at his insides like he did chocolate frogs was unreal. Deciding to just let the gnome bite his shoulder with a noticeable WINCE because the beast had SHARP teeth - he deserved it for being a home wrecker - he shoved his dirty hands into his enchanted trouser pocket for the small box of worms he kept with him for Scamander. "Was-s-s that your home?!" he squeaked. Under the tree? "I'm s-sorry I didn't mean to...but I reckon thes-s-se worms will tas-ste better than my s-should---"

But then Kitty was raising her wand AT the gnome. NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOO! THE GNOME WAS JUST TRYING TO COMMUNICATE ITS UPSET! NO NEED TO ATTACK HIM FOR TRYING TO COMMUNICATE!

Spinning at the last second - after the deer in Lumos look had faded - Derf spun and took the spell himself while sufficiently dropping the box of worms he had collected earlier that day to the ground, allowing them to spill out of the box liking wiggling living pasta.

Needless to say, the green sparks sent up by the Headmistress had gone completely unnoticed. The second year couldn't turn his head in that direction to see, you see.
