When: 30 October, early morning
I do not dislike this holiday, but the necessity to prepare a costume has taken time away from my research, as has trying to puzzle out the intention in some instances of poorly worded homeworks.
My snake has been sticking closer to me as well, he does not trust this holiday and the tricking. Ironic for a symbol of trickery, but he is more prone to pithy comments than he is other 'snake-tongued' words. Still, it is good that he is appropriate as a part of my costume this weekend, even if he is not poisonous, as I doubt he will let me go without him. If I did, I would hear nothing but complaints from him for some days, and I would get even less research done.
He was amused though last night to have startled the young first year in the Great Hall at dinner. I was speaking to a student beside her, and she had had not at first noticed him... but she let out a shriek when he moved to encircle my neck and sit on my shoulder. Clearly a muggleborn, or one not otherwise used to snakes as Familiars. Perhaps I should not have been so amused, but he was chortling at the incident, which made it funnier since of course no one else could understand his laughter.
