The poor guy. While she was thrilled that her little prank had been pulled off to perfection, she rather hoped he hadn’t hurt himself on the way down. Ciara decided to put her Housemate out of his… fear? Misery? She cackled loudly - like an evil witch - as she emerged from behind the dragon topiary, offering it a light pat on the nearest leafy side.

“Gotcha, Angel!” She skipped over to him and held a hand out to help him up. Yes, her voice was back to normal now. “You didn’t really think that the topiaries here could speak, did you?” Cee eyed him with curiosity, her expression softening. “It wouldn’t be a wild idea, but I don’t think they do.”
What was that cackle?

Had it not been for Ciara’s form coming from behind the dragon topiary, Angel would have thought another plant giant was coming to life. This was not amusing, though. He frowned as she stepped closer, his face burning. He shouldn’t have fallen for it.

“That’s not funny, Ciara,” he grumbled, standing up and rubbing his hands together to get rid of any dirt. His palms were red, but at least no scrapes. “I know topiaries can’t speak. You just caught me off guard,” he added, frowning at the Slytherin.

No one saw his blunder, right?
