A wombat... er... human in search... of clothes! (Open RP)

Digger had had her first encounter with Hogwarts-style chocolate. She'd managed to somehow slip out of the great hall without undue notice, and was now making her way back to Hufflepuff as quickly as she could. Which, come to think of it, wasn't very quickly at all - once she got them figured out, she should be able to walk faster with her longer legs, but they didn't seem to be jointed or proportioned quite the way she thought they should be, and she kept tripping over her own feet.

She was also starting to realize that in a big stone castle like this, humans had to wear clothes for comfort sake as much as anything. She was freezing. Maybe once she got back to Hufflepuff, she could find a blanket to wrap up in and hide in her room until this wore off. If it wore off. Blood of the Architect, she hoped it would wear off.

Digger laughed. "Ian, my full name is Digger-of-Unnecessarily-Convoluted-Tunnels. I mean, I've settled down some from when I was a kid, but there's still some wombats back at my warren who think I'm downright... what's the hair color humans associate with flightiness? Blonde, right?"

Ian laughed. "Yes, flightiness is one of the traits associated with blondes. Now that you're human, however, I'd say your hair's more of a light brown. If we're going with the hair color scale, that implies some depth of character."

"Well, thank you, then," she replied, with a smile, and lifted a hand to absentmindedly play with a strand of her hair. "But then, yours is several shades darker than mine."

"Well, I am, technically speaking, a genius," he replied. "Really though, in my case the hair color has more to do with ethnicity and heredity; basically, I take after my father, looks-wise."

"Well, yes, I figured that," Digger laughed. "Geology isn't the only science wombats study, you know. It's just the one one we talk about."
