"Well, I was actually thinking about giving the House a really good pep talk after introducing you to them," Max said sheepishly and grinned. "Nothing embarrassing, I promise."
Well wasn't that a shame. His back wasn't what it used to be..... Shame. Truly. Though by the looks of things... No matter. Probably for the best they not get a stick out and try to bend their backs at odd angles to try and get under it. It wasn't a terribly Ravenclaw thing to do anyway.
She only had a small moment of horror at
Max's idea of party-pepping-up. After a look at the crowd (sleeping kid, couple of plotting firsties, a distracted Head Girl) maybe it wouldn't be too bad. Ah, Lainey loved Ravenclaws.
