Taking them for walks together, eating cookies while they cleaned themselves, chasing them through the owlery. Soooooooooooo many prettiful possibilities! "You really should have brought yours as well! They could ALL be BFFs!!" EEEEEeeeep!!! The idea had her bouncing.
Yay! She did take the cat with her!!! Let the planning begi--
Say what now? Lex tilted her head and gave the woman a curious look. "How can he not like making friends? Is he defective? I think you can return him if you had a good warranty on him." Shame people didn't work like that. Lex found herself giggling at the woman's cat defense. "O'course he's fat, he looks so squishy and plushy and lovable--can I hug him sometime??? Pleeeease??" If she wouldn't let her touch her hair then surely she would let her hug her cat, or was he fake too?
The water plants greenhouse...? Blink. Blink. Oooooooohhhh "Cool!--Hmmm?" Water lilies? Lex followed the girls pointing and found the source of her excitement but before she could start bouncing too the Headmistress was giving her looks and getting a tone with her. "I didn't." She corrected, giving the woman a wide-eyed look. "I said if I did, you'd be the last to know." And really with the looks she was giving her, was it any wonder why???? "Stealing any would have been dangerous Headmistress; that goblin had a sword!!!" A really neat looking one that didn't stop her from getting everything but the emeralds but shhhhh. "So you see, taking them would have been risky work." Nodnodnod "--Oh and wrong!!' Because morals were supposedly important, yeah? "Taking them would also be wrong." Solemn nod. Quote:

Well no not really, she was still scary to the young Claw BUT having a cat named Gingersnapple makes a difference, at least to her. And with soulful bright eyes she peered up at the Headmistress and murmured “Can I see him?” Specially if this cat was fat fluffy.
But now Headmistress got all upset. Something about what Lex said with the gems and she shifted her head between she of the red-hair and she of the red robes. “What gems?...... Oh! Those gems....” now she remembers, although she doesn’t quite remember Lex stealing them, but now the Gryffindor was saying something about it being wrong. Perplexed look coming from this Ravenclaw. She saw Lex save them because they belonged to Hogwarts. But before she can react to anything the Headmistress was glaring them down. “N-No.... I didn’t take anything Headmistress.” she squeaked. “I was just....” being held like a sack of potatoes by Mo? “.... crying. Because that ugly elf had a sword and he broke stuff.” And that made her very sad. .......... “Headmistress, why did you let the ugly elf take stuff that belongs to us?”
Merlin's beard, she was still going on about cats! Defective cats, warranties on cats... did this girl even know what a warranty was?
"Cats are solitary creatures," the redhead interrupted, or tried to cut her off, more like. "Go ask your Care of Magical Creatures teacher if you don't believe me. They do not move or travel in herds, and I'm sure both Gingersnapple AND your kneazle would be offended to hear you referring to them like that."
She sniffed again and eyed the Claw child. "Yes, I have a cat named Gingersnapple." What was so funny about that, hmm? She'd been young...er, a lot younger, okay, when she had named it. It was a brilliant name for an orangey cat!!!
Could she meet him though..... Bunz again sized the girl up. "I suppose... you could... if you came by my office and he happened to be there...." No harm would be done if the girl stopped by in her presence, right? Right. She didn't look like trouble like Cambridge did, anyway.
"...I don't think he would want to be hugged or squished by youuuu, anytime soon," she clucked at the girl and moved along the row of tanks to go get some fishfood. "He only likes hugs from meeee. You'd probably squeeze him so hard his eyes would pop out." Poor kitty. She didn't want that.
And why was Cambridge so darn cheerful and babbly anyway? Huh? Bunz wasn't buying into her wide-eyed look. "Well it sounds like I AM the last to know here," she muttered as she started sprinkling food over the top of the tanks. It was interesting how Alexa remembered the moral consequences of stealing, though... dare she dream that the girl was growing up a little?
"Did you see her take anything?" she turned to brusquely ask the timid Ravenclaw. Hah, oh, no she had been busy crying over the el--- GOBLIN, it was NOT an elf. Merlin, these children needed to read some books! Books by Newt Scamander! Geez.
Annie sighed at her question and set down the fish food slowly. "I didn't let them take Hogwarts' things," she replied softly, and with a sad shake of her head. "I'm still looking into it, but rest assured that they will NOT get away with this kind of thievery. Even if we do accidentally owe them something."
Re-possessing items in the middle of the night without the proper paperwork was a bit low, too, even for goblins.
