When the girl walked in, she was clearly upset, and Sutton had a feeling that there was more to the story than she let on. She ALSO wasn't sure she wanted this girl to help them plan. She didn't really know her, and she wasn't sure the girl would be as excited about the party as she and Minnie were.
As she started crying, Sutton sincerely felt bad for her. Yes, she had lost 50 points, but she honestly thought this was a cruel punishment... to embarrass her like this and try to turn her fellow housemates against her. Well, Sutton wouldn't do that, she wouldn't turn her back on someone just because they lost 50 points... they could easily make those points back up. But... there was something she didn't understand... "Why did you go in the Forbidden Forrest?" she asked the girl in a quiet voice. Quote:

She seemed to have gotten along with all of them which was a good thing.
Turning towards Glenn Minerva smiled at her and listened, she frowned as Glenn talked, "Well fifty points is a lot Glenn, but I think you can make them up with some hard work in classes. You have always been good at helping us in classes and homework. So I have faith in you." Minerva smiled to encourage her. She knew Glenn could earn those points back and to think positively Laura had to have lost more then fifty at some point in time before her change that she made this term. "The sign thing will all be over soon and people will forget about it don't worry, plus if you help us with this event and it's successful enough people will be happy with all of us." she really didn't like seeing Glenn cry and wanted to help.
Looking back at Professor Hadley Minerva hoped she didn't step on her toes by saying things to Glenn and looked down a bit shameful in case she did, but it was Professor Hadley that told her two terms ago that she needed to be a good role model for the younger puffs so she was at least showing she was trying to keep her word.

And for some reason, well, it seemed like there was more to the story then Glenn was letting on. Something perhaps ... the groundskeeper (assuming it was he who caught her, since it was on his grounds), would be able to shed some light on. Making a mental note to visit his hut later, she nodded, in the meanwhile.
Yes she had lost a lot of points, but Glenn was a Badger. And if there was one thing she was sure it was that badgers knew how to fight hard. Reaching over her desk, she drew a tissue and handed it over to Glenn. "As if the points was enough, wearing a sign for a week, that's just...." she shook her head. "I suppose he's just testing your loyalty."
"But yes, like Minnie said, if this meetup goes well, people in Hufflepuff will remember that over some silly forest mishap. And if you're involved in the planning, well that will just look all the better for you. They'll soon forget the mishap ever happened."
Ugh. Crying. That was possibly the most girly thing in the world. She wiped them away with the sleeve of her blouse. Hearing the younger badger talk, she sighed and looked up, "I... live by a forest. I didn't think that the forest was actually that dangerous." And she was still sticking to that opinion. She just got lost - that was all. If she hadn't got lost she would've been fine.
As Minerva started talking, Glenn tuned out. She didn't want people telling her the sign didn't matter, she just wanted people to leave her alone for the week, not pay attention to it or the fact that she had lost points either.
She took the tissue and just clutched it in her hand, having already brushed away them with her sleeve. So, the decision was that she had to help with the planning, no? "May I sit down, then?" The blonde asked, her voice wavering slightly as she stared at the ground, her hair falling into her eyes. |
