Granted, Lottie didn't see she'd shoved a kid out of the way, but she did hear the complain and simply knew what had happened. She already had excellent hearing, and it intensified thanks to the blindfolded situation. WHICH SHE WASN'T COMFORTABLE WITH.
Also, may we also mention that it was a LONG walk to make without being able to see where you were going???
Either way, she never let go of Lex, and was entirely clinging to the Gryffindor until they seemed to make a full stop. Not the same sort of STOP they made when the branch got in their way. Thanks for that, Lex. She was never going to do this AGAIN. 'We're almost there, promise!'. "Riiight." Lex had practically taken her for a walk on the grounds, and it was such a pity she couldn't see a THING.
YES! She could finally take the blindfold off! And she did so, quickly, but let her eyes stay closed for a bit more before getting used to the clarity coming from...well, everywhere. So, she opened them slowly. And blinked.
Several times.
And noticed the...everything pink. A smile appeared on her face, Lex hated pink. Just as much as she hated yellow. "Sooo...?" Was her present tea with Lex? Or...what exactly?
She stood there, grinning while Lottie looked around. The smile told her that she appreciated the pink! GOOD! But this wouldn't be happening very often and in fact she felt she would need a bath after this was all over. No need to have this stuff rubbing off on her now.
So?
"Sooo?" Lex turned to her wondering what she meant by that, it was all pretty obvious you know.
"So you pick a seat, sit and we have some tea to celebrate you getting old," which she still didn't think was fair. Like, she was growing as fast as she could! Would it kill the girl to slow down and
wait for her?? MERLIN.
Ahem.
She wouldn't let that bother her now though. She herself walked over to a chair and plopped down in it.
"Come on, it's real good tea you know. We'll enjoy it for a bit, you'll see your present when you get back to your dorm." Because this was all one very elaborate plan. Have Lottie come out here while some random puffer placed her personal tea set on her bed. This one was hers...her step-mum's really but she thought it was neat so she packed it when she packed Lottie's present.
"It's something like this only it makes the tea for you as well." Not like this one here that she had to fill with tea herself.
BEAM.
