Benji was listening. He really was. He PROMISED he was trying his absolute hardest, it just happened to be that his absolute hardest wasn't particularly great and he just wanted to DO STUFF. Like transfiguring stuff. He wasn't good at it but it was OKAY because his dad said he used to suck at baking when he was a kid but now he was a PROFESSIONAL. And mum said there were lots of times when she was starting out and bludgers hit her and broke stuff so there was a LEARNING CURVE and he was HERE FOR IT.

He was gonna get GOOD at transfiguration but he couldn't do that if Professor Eris spent the whole time talking. He had to get PRACTISING. He had SO MUCH ENERGY.

So the announcement that they were designing costumes was... yeah, it was kinda predictable, since he was going on about Hallowe'een for quite a bit there, but it's okAY because he LOVED Hallowe'een.

HM. What went good with other stuff.

SALT. He liked that on chips. He could be salt and his brother could be chips. Benjamin Stylinson was a GENIUS. The hat made a MISTAKE not getting him in Ravenclaw, okay.

So. He drew a stick figure with boards of card around him like the glass part of a salt shaker and a bowl-looking thing on top of his head, and then drew an arrow at it. And then wrote "CAULIFLOWER". And then just to be clear about exactly what he meant, drew holes in the bowl. Cauliflowers had holes in them so they could drain water out.

A pretty ingenious idea, if he did say so himself.

And he did.
