[Dave has been watching the proceedings with a barely-held-together pokerface behind his ever-present shades. His heart is pounding like a jackhammer.

But when the hat makes its announcement, all the coolness fades away and Dave is up and on his feet, jumping into the air like he's part of the cast of High School Musical, and cheering so loud his voice cracks stupidly.]

FUCK yeah!

<sub>[GOSH, BETWEEN YOU AND BRO, DIRK FEELS LIKE THE MOST SPECIAL KID IN THE WORLD.

Hopefully Dave has an empty space beside him, because that's where he's aiming to sit down. Only after engaging in the most unironic of fistbumps. As soon as he's close to Dave, he's holding his fist out.]</sub>

[Sure he does. Especially one small enough for your tiny little ass, Dirk.

Dave brings himself back under control after his initial outburst, but he returns the fistbump with a grin nonetheless and then pulls Dirk in and noogies him.]

Didn't I tell you it weren't no thing to worry about?

_{[Dirk squeaks, but it's well covered with a laugh. He hugs Dave and squeezes before ducking away and trying to fix his hair.]}

You did, but I couldn't be sure until the hat decided. _{[BUT OMG, HE'S JUST. SO HAPPY TO BE IN GRYFFINDOR, OKAY.]}
