Oh, and we get secrets now?
Was she expecting Lottie to be sort of scandalized over the incident? Well, the girl simply laughed. Rather loudly, too. To Professor Lafay? No way. "What exactly had you been doiiing, Lex?" THAT was a very fair question if you asked her. Also, "I bet she had her reasons, though I can't say if they were good or not...," they probably were.
"When did it happen, by the way?" This question would probably be answered when Lex explains, right? But she still asked.
BEAM. "Help is appreciated, indeed," it'll give her some place to start. Some clue, even. She was good at Potions, and following instructions too. Not as good as Transfiguration, but good enough.
"Agreed!" Now she had two things to work on. The potion for Lex, and their other drink. Might as well start working on the other three they'll be doing after that one.
She got the feeling that she either wasn't being taken seriously or her friend genuinely had no idea how bad the woman was. You didn't simply
glare at Alexa Cambridge, it was ruuuuuude. Lex gave her a solemn nod at her question.
"Yes. A very good thing. Who knows, she might have been rude to you too then I'd have had to plant something awful in her office," messing with her was mildly a problem but being rude to her best friend was another story entirely,
"just think, she'd find out somehow then haul me off to the dungeons and dispose of me before anyone can even notice... but you'd notice that I was gone, yeah?" Too dramatic? She couldn't help it.
Uhhh...
What was that? Come again?
"What was I...doing...?" Why ask such a political question Lottie? Whose side were you on???
"Nothing bad, I assure you. Felix had gotten loose." When hadn't he?
"And as the good kneazle owner I am I had to go after him." Mags wasn't the only thing he liked chasing, you know.
"And she just appeared out of NOWHERE. I didn't see her while running and might have knocked right into her but in all fairness I'm the one that fell to the ground, not her."
So there was no need for wand drawing and such--Lottie say what??
"Good reason? What good reason would anyone have for nearly killing my baby??" Okay, so the spell she used was a simple levitation one...but Lottie didn't need to know that or she'd think she was overreacting
which she was but only a little.
"I can be a big help!!" GRIN.
"We'll find it again...hopefully before we go off for the summer--which is still a long way off." They had plenty of time. Plus, she didn't plan to stay away from strawberries any longer than she had to.
Oooo and there they went agreeing again. BEEEAAAM.
