Who: Brendon and William
When: Friday night, reverse-aging week
Where: A hallway near Hufflepuff
What: Kids these days

William didn't usually take to wandering the halls late at night, but then his face didn't usually look like a war zone for clogged pores, either. Apparently regressing in age meant oily skin all over again, in addition to the other more obvious and annoying physical problems.

He hadn't needed to keep Clear Countenance potion on hand since his first year out of school. He couldn't very well ask a student for some, either, it wouldn't be fitting. If there was one thing he was relatively sure about, however, it was that students embarrassed about their acne didn't always keep skin-care potions in their rooms where nosy classmates could find them. They found out-of-the-way lavatories and stashed them there instead.

Not that William was speaking from experience or anything.

There were two lavatories tucked into a side hallway near Hufflepuff, as he recalled. With the House so close and nothing else nearby to encourage foot traffic, they weren't used very often. William was in the right vicinity, he was fairly certain. Now he supposed he ought to just start opening doors and keeping his fingers crossed.
