Mischievous Niffler Seriously? So that was the reaction she got for trying to give a compliment. Alice hadn't meant to upset the house elves. "The food is fine, Quirly. I just meant it was especially fine at the feast."
Her order (phrased as a request) didn't seem to be going the way she had hoped, either. Ahem! Perhaps she wasn't being clear enough in her wordings. "Now, Quirly, I never said to spy on the students. If you catch them breaking rules, then of course it is your duty to tell a professor. I do not expect trouble from the students. I want you to keep out for anything unusual - anything at all. A whisper. A portrait that you never saw before. A glowing ring. Anything that seems OFF. We don't know what form the next misfortune shall take, but I intend to be ready for it. You WILL do this for me, won't you, Quirly?"
And Argyle, of course. |
