Hufflepuff's very own Percy Weasley: Ernie MacMillan! 💛🦉✨

I had fun with Ernie, who is such a character. In the books, he's always the person who knows everything, both about school and the latest gossip. That last one is probably because he's friends with Susan. Ernie is the perfect schoolboy. He's dedicated, prioritizes his exams, and is a Prefect. I believe his most admirable trait is that he's unafraid to admit when he's wrong. When it turned out Harry was, in fact, not the heir of Slytherin, Ernie apologised. He does that more than once during the entire series. That shows true character :)

📔📚📖 There was a little scenario I had in mind when drawing Ernie about his first day as a Prefect. I see him running around, talking the ears off his first-year students, showing them everything they just have to know, because it's important. ("Mind the stairs, they try to eat your feet on the third step down.") He doesn't even realise he's overwhelming the kids with information and doesn't stop until he's red in the face and in danger of suffocation. Breathe, Ernie, breathe. He calms down a bit after a few weeks, but he will always remain the overly helpful Prefect who takes care of his housemates🌿💛

I hope you like Ernie! More minor characters are coming up! <3

Justin Finch-Fletchley

Apart from a few months missing classes in his second year, Justin has a great life at Hogwarts :) Much better than if he had gone to Eton College..

I liked drawing Justin a little scruffy, and very ADHD. He would definitely own a skateboard, and I imagine him tripping over his shoelaces a lot, tracking mud into the school (and with that the wrath of Filch) and scratching rude words into the desks. The character sketches are continuing! I am working on the minor characters in the Trio's year at Hogwarts. Justin is our final Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw is next :)
