Matthew Lewis / Max Goof
Johnny was a boy thought he was a man thought he lived in a world that didn't understand but it's alright, alright.
Max is a little bit complicated. With his mother dying when he was fairly young, he latched onto his Dad who is a bit on the odd side. Due to this, Max has some eccentric foods he likes to eat. But he is also very embarrassed by his loving father so despite the fact he likes his father he will do his best to disown resemblances even to the point of over cultivating an act of coolness. He is cool, just not for the reasons he thinks, he cannot quite pull off aloof and he falls on his face a lot but he has a strong enough moral code to do what's right.
He was never really one to judge people so he ended up becoming friends with PJ despite PJ's father being a bit nasty. But on the same note, Max does have a little bit of an ambition for better so he can sometimes be tricked if a scheme seems like it'll work. He almost became Agrabah but his goodness and his courage put him in Atlantica. He is very loyal to the few friends he has and he is a big fan of music. He tends to sneak in music and rig it so he can listen to it. He is best in DADA where his clumsiness gives him a strange advantage in a fight combined with his ADD attention to detail. He is also very good with animals but the clumsiness he inherited from his Dad can cause some problems there and in potions.
He is a pretty good fan of transfiguration since he doesn't have to move much and same with charms. But He is easily bored by divination and wishy washy things. Although he would like to be a part of the Quidditch team, he worries he'll trip over his own feet so he doesn't. Max does his job because he says he doesn't have enough money to not do anything but in truth he does it to make his Dad not have to worry about paying for him.

Max was born into a household of warmth. His mother was a bit smarter than his father and his father was well emotionally. when he was four or so, his mother died due to an illness leaving him to be just raised by his Dad. Due to this, his Dad moved to a smaller neighbourhood so he could take a less intensive job that allowed him time with his son and still be able to support his son. Max used to follow around his father everywhere and although he was easily tricked by his "Uncle" Pete when he was younger he started learning better when he became friends with PJ.
He did his best to be a brother to PJ and invite him over whenever he could. He couldn't quite understand that PJ's father was a bad father but he could understand that PJ liked the times at their house. Because PJ was his next door neighbour, they always went to the same schools so Max kept an eye on him even as he used PJ's strength to help him out with get popular schemes, always giving up on the popular schemes if they didn't include bringing PJ to the same level with him. Eventually, he got the letter to the academy and has been growing into his more popular image. but he still has a fear people will discover how much he is like his Dad.
The halls and great hall weren't very full of people this early in the morning. That was what the not quite young anymore teenager was counting on as he crept down to the table. His hair was a little messy due to how early he woke up despite sneaking out of school for a shift as a valet. He had a few bags under his eyes and he was still in his Pajamas under his robes. This early if he ate he could wake up with food first before he went back to actually do things to get ready. He needed to keep up his cheerful nature or else people would start to suspect the job.
Of course, the job wasn't the only thing he was trying to cover up. At the flutter of wings, he looked up to find a brown owl flying to the table with an overly large care package. He caught the package before the owl collapsed and lent the owl some of his early morning bacon as he took the opportunity to read the warm letter from his father. As much as he liked his letters... He didn't want to deal with them when other people were around. They would at first make him look snobbish and then when they found out about his Dad... Max shook his head and shivered at the thought...
Still... He didn't want to tell his Dad to stop sending letters. They made him happy and he could afford a little bit of uncoolness just to be able to get the letter from his Dad. Which was why he had arranged for an early morning breakfast for him and a few other people who preferred their breakfast before they got dressed rather than afterwards. He quirked a smile as he continued to read the letter from his Dad, eating his bacon, just enjoying the silence of the hall with the exception of the few sleepy early risers like him sneaking in for their own extremely early breakfast.
