Inter house unity? Heck yeah!

What if I ask the Whomping Willow nicely to lower its branches instead?" she squeaked, jumping up and down trying to catch it. Or...she could stand on his shoulders. That would work too.

Um, excuse me, Mr. Willow...or, erm, Ms. Willow...would you mind lowering your branches so I could take that pesky flag off your...twigs?"
