"Still gross, but honestly? Perfect for Jade," Cameron says to Kenzie's back as she rushes toward the vampire candy. He briefly wonders if Jade is going to really eat it, or just keep it as a memento, but the thought of eating it turns his stomach, so he lets it go.
Cameron can feel the tension in Iliya's shoulders and he can feel when it eventually releases, but he doesn't acknowledge it now. Instead, he slips past him to the shelves full of candies, picking up at least one of everything that Iliya points to without question. "Not allowed? Like at all? Ever?" Cameron says, "Not real big on school bonding, huh?" By now, his robe pockets are filled until they're bulging, but he doesn't seem like he plans to stop stocking up on candy until it's falling out. "Hufflepuff's nice. Real cozy. Ceilings are a little low for my taste, and you would not believe how you have to get in. I swear, they accidentally sorted me into the midget house. It's ridiculous trying to watch me, Jeffy, and Heathcliff."
Whatever Ulysses is getting into immediately catches Cameron's attention, and he wanders over to pick up one of the candies. However, as soon as Ulysses pops it into his mouth, his hair starts floating gently as if with static electricity, like he just rubbed a balloon over it. Based on his friend's expression, something about it is alarming or at least startling. The next words out of Ulysses's mouth are pitched very high, like he inhaled helium. Cameron doubles over, laughter booming through the store loud enough to make several people turn and stare. Once he recovers, he looks down at the sample candy in his palm. The color and shape are different, and he wonders what it does. One way to find out. He pops it into his mouth.
