Just for that, she'd probably encourage Kit to snatch one or two of her things. Just out of spite. But she quickly mentally composed herself by reaching back down to her quill, leaning over Kit. "Well...", she started, sucking her lips together for a brief moment. "That's what her cage is for," she replied with a smile. A faked smile. But a smile nonetheless.
She continued scribbling away at her letter. If this girl didn't like ferrets, she wondered how she'd react to a pigeon...

Well, she obviously did care about animals if she looked like that at the memory of her cat, so maybe she wasn't that bad. Just maybe.
"Why isn't he or she here?" he asked tentatively, wondering if he'd even get an answer.
He stroked Rogue's head thoughtfully as he leaned on the desk at which Kana continued to write her letter, glancing at Louisa to see if she'd answer. Although her comment about locking Kit up, well... that was going a bit far, he thought. Didn't girls keep their jewellery in boxes and things anyway? Besides, a pet wasn't a machine but a living thing for heaven's sake, you couldn't just control it!
For instance, he couldn't control Rogue when the owl decided it wanted to take a quick flight around the common room. Or when it decided to swoop low over some of the students' heads, so low he'd accidentally ruffle their hair when flying overhead. Or that one of those students just happened to be Louisa. He had absolutely no control over that, although he didn't find it a bit difficult to keep a straight face when Rogue landed back on his shoulder.
He wondered what would happen once Kana revealed she also had a pigeon...
Louisa felt a liiiittle bit guilty when Kana just went back to her writing, clutching her pet closer. The third year liked taunting younger students a bit, she lost that kind of power since her parents and younger brothers went abroad. "
What are you writing?" She tried to sound friendly... for a change this evening. Keeping a closer eye on the rat too, that wouldn't hurt.
But then the boy asked... did he have to? Did all boys have to be so curious? She slumped back into the couch and stretched her feet before her idly. "
Sick." One word answer was the best. No need to influence their little minds and tell them the whole story about Louisa being an adventurere and all this stuff. She won't have that on her conscience. Not yet, anyway.
