<sub>[Just saying he's a little nervous doesn't really cut it. He knows he can't even do this wrong, but he feels all this pressure on him that isn't even there. He just wants to do this right. Doing this right will be ending up in Gryffindor. Because that's what his uncle was. That's what Dave is. He's been focused on following this and being like his family that he isn't sure what he feels about the idea of possibly ending up in one of the three other houses.

It's a bit nerve-wracking because it's like a test that he has no way to prepare for. The most he can do is ask for the Hat to sort him into this house. But that's when it's his turn. And he's an S and that's so far away. Why wasn't he born Dirk H. Aardvark? It'd be so much easier.

But then he hears his uncle's words. It's one of those moments where he forgot that magic is even a thing, so he's looking around him for Bro before he even thinks to look at the staff table. He's too nervous to even return that smile with little more than a lip twitch.

In the very least, he visibly relaxes some.]</sub>
