"So if nargles - if they're real, of course - if they're like Thestrals in that they're invisible to most people, what would a person have to do or to witness to see them, do you think? Would it be death, or something else?" Perhaps it was a random thought, and it was really mostly hypothetical since she was pretty sure nargles didn't exist, as she'd never heard about them in any CoMC lesson, but it was interesting to think about, wasn't it? Because what if, by some small possibility, they actually were real? Wizards couldn't possibly know about every species of animal that ever existed, could they?
And besides, continuing the subject on nargles would keep the conversation from wandering back to the Statute of Secrecy that everyone seemed so unsettled over.
Kurumi nodded in agreement. At least there was someone else who thought that these Nargles could potentially exist. "
Well, since they are said to be thieves, perhaps you have to have something very precious to you stolen to be able to see them," Kurumi offered putting her thinking cap on. "
Like...your favorite chocolate frog card or a family heirloom that has been in the family for centuries!"

"Hey, Salander," Vashti replied with what she hoped was a friendly smile. Noticing his glance towards Treyen and assuming the question he was trying to imply, she wracked her brain for a way to answer without having to actually explain it all out loud. Finally she just decided on unfolding the Quibbler in her hand so he could see what it was then she raised an eyebrow and shrugged as she glanced briefly at Kurumi and Treyen, as if to say, This thing's making them a bit uneasy. Which mostly it was Kurumi who hadn't liked the Quibbler, but Salander had appeared to ask only about Treyen, so she had to connect the Hufflepuff into it somehow.

Ha! Victory was her's as she had managed to see past Treyen's head. Not that it was that much of a victory to begin with. Kurumi noticed Vashti's look about the Quibbler and she quickly folder her own copy and put it in her robe's pocket. She was going to have to talk to Eino and Adam about it later. "
So, Salander," Kurumi said swaying back and forth a bit out of nervousness. "
What do you think a Nargle looks like?" Best to keep the flow of conversation away from the Quibbler, right? Kurumi didn't really want to start crying again.
