I was just explaining the whole transforming into a dragon thing to Harry when Ron and Hermione returned from their shopping spree.
"We come bearing sweets!" Ron tipped a mountain of brightly wrapped packages into my lap.
I picked one up. "Chocolate FROGS? I mean, I get the chocolate, but..."
Harry smiled. "I had the same reaction. Their pretty nice, really. See what the card is!"
Bemused, I unwrapped the package to reveal a brown frog, which looked at me, then hopped to the table.
My draconian instincts kicked in, and I slammed my hand down, catching it mid jump and tossing it into my mouth. It was delicious! Milk chocolate with a creamy texture. Mmmmmm.
I started hunting through the pile on my lap, and found another. This one did not get a chance to even start a hop before I was crunching happily on it.
I looked round. Everyone was staring at me. I chewed again.
"What? I love chocolate!"
There was a moment where everyone was silent. I swallowed.
Harry burst out laughing.
"What?"
Hermione joined in.
"It-its just- Normally, when someone opens their first chocolate frog, they scream and scarper! It MOVES after all. But-but, you just ATE it!" Harry was howling with laughter by the end of this sentence.
"So? Whats so funny about that?"
No one answered. They were all too busy laughing.
I shrugged, and tried some more wizard sweets. Ooh, jelly beans!!!
I opened the packet, and popped a few into my mouth. These didn't taste like jelly beans... These didn't taste very nice at all...
I coughed and reached for a glass of water, my face going slightly green. When everyone saw that, they started laughing again.
"Not.. funny..." I coughed out in between gulps of water. Ron fell out of his chair at that.
I swallowed several times, and frowned at them all, crossing my arms.
Then I stormed out over-dramatically, pretending to be in a strop with them all, but secretly sneaking a few chocolate frogs into the dorm.
