Though she appreciated the compliment about her name because she quite agreed. “I don’t know of any other Violetta’s in my family. It’s a special name, all my own. And I am the youngest of four.” The baby of the family, spoiled too, though she wouldn’t have called it that exactly.

So many, many questions… she could hardly keep them all straight. What lengths she would go to for her fans. “I was born in the year 2000 in a village called Haslemere,” she began, trying to summarize several questions into one answer. “I attended the academy from 2011 to 2018. Though of course I began school with much talent, by the time I left, I was able to play 15 musical instruments, leading me to compose and solely perform the well-known operetta, Who Cast the Spell on Music?” Certainly they knew about it? But perhaps they weren’t as cultured as she. ~~Or maybe she was only a star in her own mind.~~ She looked squarely at the boy whose father was a possible classmate. “What is your father’s name? Is he also a brilliant musician?” And then another boy asking about her talents. “I sing, I pl- …do I what?! I most certainly do not! I’m not a trained pony.” THE VERY IDEA!

Ms. Bulstrode, right, right right... nay, write write write this down he should! Davie snapped his hand toward his desk, and like the trained little puppy it nearly was, his quick quotes quill came floating over. If only the parchment came too! Alas, he would just have to do with jotting notes on his hand. Ms. Bullstrode, as she liked to be called, would be a wonderful topic for their presentation. Hah. She was such a performer, even in portrait form.

He started by jotting down that she was the youngest of four, born in 2000, in Haslemere, went to WADA from 2011-2018, played 15 instruments, composed Who Cast the Spell on Music... sounded like a good musical, though he'd never seen it, certainly... and Davie was still jotting stuff down when the portrait looked straight at him. He nearly jumped at the sudden eye contact. It was INTENSE. But cool. But mostly intense.

"Uh... uh..." Davie quickly did the calculation on his hand, since he was writing all over himself with this quill apparently. "He was there in 2049, to 2051, I think." End of '49, graduated in '51... sounded about right. "He was a transfer from Hogwarts, and I think he studied acting... and then he graduated early," Davie added helpfully. Was that helpful? It still seemed doubtful that Ms. Bulstrode would know Ethan Truebridge, but he was awfully proud of his dad so he mentioned him to her anyway.

He almost snickered at the first year's question about posing with something on her back, because he thought he caught the reference, but fortunately Davie was able to hold his laughter in. Ms. Bulstrode seemed the type to get offended at anyone's snickering, so when that older Slytherin he'd once partnered with in Arithmancy asked if Ms. Bulstrode's parents hated her, Davie gasped and whacked the older boy lightly on the arm.

"You can't just ask people that," he corrected him, barely suppressing another smile. The professor had just taken away points from Dante, though, so Davie didn't say anything else. Also, Davie didn't yet notice that he'd smacked Dante with his ink-covered notes hand, so he went on to ask the portrait another question. Since they were on the topic of families... "Are you a pureblood, ma'am? Do you come from a talented family?"
