He is an example of one of the elves that popped in and out of Hogwarts during when Harry Potter was a student here." So, perhaps house elves were more powerful than witches and wizards on some fronts, but they also possessed powers that the elves didn't. Still...something was off. "It's not a matter of whose's idea it was," Kurumi said shaking her head. "If you are concerned you should go and speak with him too." Kurumi actually had him penciled into her schedule for later that day.
"I had my first caramel apple at the carnival!" Kurumi chirped. It was funny how many things were still out there waiting to be discovered and tasted. "I feel like I had pizza for the first time when I had it in New York. Nothing like I have ever had before. It was brilliant." She looked at Ari for a moment. "You probably wouldn't really fancy Japanese pizza. Many of them include mayonnaise or corn on them. Mother refuses to buy it, so my brothers would order it whenever she wasn't home." Which had resulted in more than a few mix up including each of her three brothers ordering a large pizza each think that the other hadn't ordered yet.
"Father seems to enjoy it," she replied with a shrug. As long as her father was happy she was happy.
"Of course! I was actually thinking about heading down there soon...but I need someone to help me carry my trunk," she replied looking at the younger girl with an innocent puppy dog face. She even batted her eyelashes for extra emphasis.
Dobby? Nope, she had no idea who Dobby was. Ariadne had read extensively about the time when Harry Potter had attended Hogwarts, but she paid more attention to the information on witches and wizards, and not so much other magical beings.
'I see. I haven't heard of Dobby before, but I'll go check at the library.' Ari was afraid she might seem ignorant, so it was better to change the subject and make a mental note to do some research later.
'Okay, I will go too, see if he tells me the same thing he tells you.' the young girl nodded.
'I've never had caramel apple. I miss up on many delicious food products, since my mum is such a terrible cook.' Ari laughed, remembering her mother's experiments in the kitchen, which looked more like Alchemy than cooking. '
Mayonnaise? Yuck! I definitely wouldn't like that on a pizza. But corn doesn't sound that bad...' All this talk about food made her suddenly hungry.
Ari got the hint:'
Sure, I'll help with the trunk whenever you're ready to go.' The second year prayed it wouldn't be too heavy, since she couldn't really be trusted not to drop things.
