Ernie Macmillan appears as a polite Hufflepuff in Herbology, courteously asking Harry for a bucket before suspicions arise from the heir rumors. He turns antagonistic, loudly accusing Harry of opening the Chamber after Justin's petrification, fanning Nearly Headless Nick with a conjured fan in panic. By the crisis's end, he's working alongside Harry on Shrivelfigs, his initial distrust giving way to Hufflepuff reconciliation.
Description
Ernie is a stout, pudgy 12-year-old boy with a formal demeanor, his face often stark white with concern and soft features framed by neat hair. He has plump hands that he extends politely, dressed in Hufflepuff robes of yellow and black over school uniform. His build is rounded and solid, moving with deliberate care around plants or in classrooms. His presence feels proper and dutiful, eyes earnest behind a veneer of propriety.
