Carter was tempted to belt that out... but Destiny wouldn't get the reference.
Unless she watched muggle cartoon as well as muggle spy movies. Or unless she read a muggle book -- which Carter doubted. He'd never even see her read a magical book.
He stifled a chuckle when Destiny started talking. She didn't know the portraits moved and that statues don't talk! She was probably the worst at hide-and-seek when she was little.
Which... gave Carter an idea. He should suggest they play hide-and-seek for his badge. That would take much less time than following Destiny through the WHOLE castle.
He cautiously approached the statue. He didn't want another surprise from Destiny causing him to fall over.
He should really learn to carry those wool bombs around. How perfect would it be to throw one at her right now?
Destiny was MORE than certain that Carter would really think it was the statue talking and not her. She had disguised her voice well, after all. Or at least she thought.
Bringing her knees up to her chest, trying her best to conceal her feet from sticking out as best she could, she stuck her hand in her pocket once more and pulled out another chocolate frog. She hoped Carter would leave soon, she was running out of food and she was starting to starve. And it was all his fault, too! He had to ruin her lunch in the Great Hall, and then all the running HE was making her do. He owed her.
He should let her keep the badge for all the trouble.
Sighing dramatically to herself, she began to unwrap the chocolate frog.. but before she could shove it into her mouth, it used it's one good hop to hop right out of her hands and into the middle of the corridor.
And Destiny, being Destiny, moved out from her hiding spot and made a lunge for it, only to come face to shoe with Carter. Her hiding spot was ruined!..
"Did you hear that statue talk?" she asked him, sitting up and dusting the frog off.
Her chocolate frog was dirty!
