When he saw that there was a creature meet 'n' greet booth in the 600 Years of Diagon Alley Celebration, he persuaded his former classmate Honora to go with him. Not only would it be a learning opportunity, but they could also get to pet and hold some of the animals!

Arriving just before Pippa Weatherbee began her presentation on ravens, he glanced at Honora, curious about her thoughts on this species, and listened attentively to the shopkeeper. "Wanna volunteer?" he nudged his friend with a playful smile.
Why she'd agreed to come see all the creatures, Honora wasn't really sure. Maybe Carson was just exceptionally persuasive. Maybe she was just that desperate to spend time with anyone other than the two children she'd been nannying.

Maybe she was just a good friend.

But she had to draw the line somewhere. At his suggestion she volunteer to hold who-knew-what kind of animal (she hadn't been paying close attention), she shook her head, her blonde hair flinging about. "Absolutely not," she said firmly, trying to identify what he wanted her to even volunteer for. Ravens? Well, she supposed it could be worse than ravens. But luckily some others volunteered, so she was hopefully off the hook. She gave Carson a sheepish smile. If it was like...a cat, or rabbit, he could volunteer her for that.
