The young Ravenclaw blushed and smiled at the Professor even as her cheeks bulged out with the tasty morsel of food she’d crammed into her mouth. Auden wasn’t exactly sure what it was but all she knew was that it was a pastry shaped like an owl and it tasted like butter and chocolate. Golden flakes dusting the lower half of her face, she swallowed quickly. ” Thank you, Professor.” Smiling easier now, she pointed towards the professor’s own costume. ”And yours is amazing!”
And it was! Not a lot of people could pull off what essentially looked like a giant onesie, but Professor Paton definitely made it work! Quote:

Which was exactly why she grabbed a small plate and began to put small helpings of each on it. "I like your bowtruckle costume, by the way! Very creative!" Hearing a voice at her side, the eleven year old gave a start. Holy moly-no wait she really needed to get the hang of acceptable magical experlatives. Sweet Merlin’s self cleaning chamber pot, it was a seventh year Ravenclaw! Auden only knew she went by ‘Mouse’ but wasn’t really sure of her actual name.
Wiping furtively at her face with her sleeve-to try to appear like she’d hadn’t just essentially grabbed the first tasty looking treat she’d seen and gobbled it whole, the young witch nodded. ”Totally,” she agreed trying to look as if she too was studiously contemplating all the options. That seemed like a Ravenclaw-y thing to do, right? Fiddling with her headband, she gave the older girl a shy smile at the compliment. ”Thanks! You too! I mean yours is super creative too. It looks so magical!” She winced a bit as she heard herself. Magical, really? That’s the best she could do? She knew more words than that! Then again she wasn’t entirely sure what creature Mouse was supposed to be so maybe ‘magical’ was the best thing to say. Although the first year didn’t know her magical creatures very well yet, she knew it had to be some sort of peacock. A beautiful magical peacock.
Copying her elder housemate, Auden grabbed a small plate to serve herself a bit of everything too. With a small hand, she gestured down the table. ” The owl tastes good!” she blurted out-Belatedly realizing that maybe that sentence needed more context. ” I meant the owl shaped pastries over there, not owls themselves.” Cue nervous laughter. Before she could stop herself, the eleven year old rambled on in what her brother would call classic Audi word vomit. “I wouldn’t know if owls themselves taste good. I’ve definitely never eaten an owl before. I’m sure there’s cultures out there that do though. I imagine it’d probably taste like a gamier duck…Not that I plan to eat one soon. Or ever! Owls are friends not food!” Her laughter was high pitched even to her. Abort! Abort! No one thought you meant actual owls! ”Oh my, it sure is hot in here- hahahahaaaa”
If she could smack her forehead she would but her hands were occupied with food at the moment. Merlin’s mustache comb, she was really blowing this first impression. Maybe she should stuff another dessert in her face.
