"My secrets don't damage others!" Natalie said, urgently. She looked away again, "Mine are just different, I guess. I mean, I have personal ones, which probably hurt me. But others are dark family secrets, which amaze me in a great way!" she looked back at Neva. "The dark arts attract me! I'm drawn to them...but that's not a secret! It's just some stuff that I have done or my family have done that are secrets."
Natalie shrugged. "Don't ask why I'm so drawn to the dark arts because I don't know, my self."
She suddenly remembered a question she had been itching to ask Neva.
"Oh yeah! There's something I want to ask you. When we first met, you said you heard Eliza and me in the Room of Requirment. Which was probably your first impression of me. Me, plotting to use the Cruciatus curse. But anyway, how did you hear us? When I left the only person I saw was Professor Prid-" she paused for a moment and raised an eyebrow. "Was it you who told her?" she asked calmly.
