He wouldn’t really be a proper older brother if he didn’t tease Keighley, would he? Jude started to chuckle as he watched her blush. Really, it was so easy to get her to do that! “You guys need to have that talk but I have a feeling she’s going to be your girlfriend eventually.” He couldn’t wait for that to happen but he also knew things were rather complicated because of things with Charlie. The sixth year smirked again as he watched Keigh glance at the Ravenclaw table again. “I’m just happy that you’re happy. Well, happier.”
Jude inclined his head back at Yukie. It was a Japanese thing if he recalled; traditions from around the world always fascinated him. “Hey, Henry! Not an actual baby-” And there went the exclamation about red eyes. “Uh, guys? Maybe we want to keep things quiet? I mean, we wouldn’t want to startle the snake, yeah?” Little Desiree who was not so little anymore joined them. Honestly, Jude would never get over how quickly the younger ones around him grew up. “Hey, Desiree,’’ he called, smiling at her. “It wasn’t bad at all!” In fact, it was definitely one of his best. “How was yours?”
Shouting… MUST people SHOUT? Or in this case, must the poltergeist shout?! Jude dealt with bigmouths in the form of Reagan enough but that didn’t mean he had become comfortable with anyone - or poltergeist - yelling. The Hufflepuff saw that Peeves was holding water balloons and his first concern was that Peeves might throw one and upset the snake, the snake in turn causing some sort of chaos at the Table. He reached for his wand discreetly and held it under the table in his left hand. He pretended to ignore Peeves but was really watching him out of the corner of his eyes. He caught Daniel’s movements and though the younger Hufflepuff had gotten his own wand ready as well.
There was a nod directed to Maria. “Professor Paton is more than capable,’’ he repeated, smiling a little to reassure her. Even as he was speaking, Keighley was making attempts to get their cousin’s attention. “Our little snake friend here will have a good home wherever that will be.” He’d offer a hug too but he was much too busy sharing his attention with Peeves. |
