"Do the heads talk?" His imagination was off and running again, "What if they were falsely imprisoned prisoners and they died? Do the heads say they're innocent? I guess if they talked, all the heads would say they were innocent, even if they were the lowest scum of the earth."
He'd picked up that phrase -- 'lowest scum of the earth' -- from one of his father's friends, and had been low-key looking for a place to use it. Now seemed the perfect time.
Elias let out a 'hmm' and glanced out the still-open compartment door at the other students occasionally wandering by. A tall kid...
"And they should have a beard. To make them look older."
No discrimination for a boy or a girl candidate, either; he'd seen a bearded lady smoking a pipe outside the Leaky Cauldron, so if one of the girls at the school wanted to grow a fullsome beard who was he to comment negatively? Plus, if she were old enough to grow a beard, she'd certainly know enough magic to turn him into an undignified smear on a wall somewhere. "Probably." Nod nod and answer the next question, which was kinda PERSONAL to her (remember the trial last year? Uh huh). "I mean, innocent people are accused of NOTHING all the time, so they probably DO say that." Yep, they probably would magically all be innocent TOO. Bernie was in agreement with that. All that. It sounded very... fancy. Like something you'd put in a letter. Lowest scum of the earth! You had to SHOUT it whilst shaking your fist at said scum. Maybe she'd shout that at someone this term, if they did something to deserve it. If she encountered another gargoyle, she would for sure yell this at it.
Maybe Elias would be a Ravenclaw after all. He was asking all the right questions, and saying SUPER smart stuff. Could be good to have another Ravenclaw friend.
A beard! "Brilliant," she agreed with a nod, rustling her candy wrappers as though they might entice a tall kid to wander in. "A beard and wrinkles? Maybe even a few gray hairs. I heard Dumbledore was gray by the time he graduated Hogwarts 'bout a thousand years ago."
