Bunz didn't say anything for a few moments as she moved her wet glove to the next tank and started tugging out a few water weeds out that weren't supposed to be there. She just listened to the two girls and tried to decipher what Cambridge was saying.

That girl could talk a mile a minute. Merrrrrrrrrrr-lin.

"Um," she replied slowly at first. Gingersnapple, she was asking about Gingersnapple. "Yes, I brought my cat to school this year. He quite likes living in my office, but no, he does not like making friends." He was too much of a drama king/center of attention kind of cat. Plus... she didn't really want to see more of Cambridge than she had to already. "And also, he is NOT fat. He's just fluffy."

She held her nose up in a haughty manner and continued her work with the plants. Hold on, had the girl just said something about stealing gems?! The redhead's eyebrows went up and she withdrew her hand from the tank to turn around and slowly stare at the girl.

"Did you just say you stole some of the house gems?" She ignored her dripping glove and stared at the other girl that was there, the one suspiciously interested in water lilies. "Did you have anything do with that?!" ACCOMPLICE!!!

Ah would you look at that? Even Aquila was confirming that feline theory. Gosh, their pets would be BFFs in no time. She could already see it. 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.

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.

Blink. Blink.

"Well actually, you know, lions are a form of cats and they move in prides so you can't really say that they're solitary creatures--Felix has the tail of a lion, it's close enough soooooo he might like the idea of having his own Pride." Though he was already apart of the lions. Rawr. But really, Felix hated competition, he hated anything that got more affection than him. Something she never failed to overlook.

And maybe Gingersnapple was half kneazle but the woman didn't know? That would make him like the idea of pride life tooooooo. Nodnodnod.

Oh hey Aquila wanted to meet him as well! They could both go and it'd be fun and--EHHH???? Lex STARED up at the woman. "I wouldn't, honest. I know how to hold felines, Felix enjoys my cuddles, his eyes are still in their sockets." Pfffffffft, cat was probably fake too. She'd have to make note to share this with Cassia later. Fake hair, fake cat, how's about that jewellery you like wearing Headmistress? Hmmmmmmm?

Speaking of Felix...wasn't...wasn't that him just behind the Headmistress, paw in the water trying to catch lunch?

O___________O

Oh merlin. Her eyes widened as she rushed by the woman and yanked the kneazle off the tank. "What have I told you about doing these things when there are witnesses?" Somehow that came out wrong. MOVING ON. Yes. To Aquila crying. That had been a wonderful distraction, right up there with Peyton clinging to the hourglasses. Wonderful people they all were and to think she thought Aquila would accidentally mention something she shouldn't have. Pssssh, she'd have to get her a cookie when they got back to the castle.

Eyes on the Headmistress because the girl had asked an important question. Why? "So if you didn't let them, then does that mean they stole?" And people wanted her feeling bad about taking the gems because?? Technically she saved them if that was the case. "They won't come back for the ice-cream machine, will they???" Not the ice-cream!

Oh! Oh! Headmistress said she can go see her Gingersnapple. Aquila gave a soft gleeful clap, absolutely beaming at the possibility of seeing her—oh no him. A male cat by the name of Gingersnapple, imagine that “We will be gentle with him” she beamed, hugging Lex’s shoulders as if she were the cat “We’ll make sure his eyes stays in his sockets.” They’ll tape them in there if they have to.

Oh hey there goes Lex... grabbing that cat? Aquila tilted her head to the side “Dont be mean to the kitty....” she murmured to Lex, hovering her hand on his back thinking of petting him. Was he upset at being yelled at? She would be, she just wanted to make him feel alllll better.

Soulful brown eyes grew large at the Headmistress’ words, then turned her head when Lex spoke. “So you weren’t willing to let them take things....” and Lex had a point when she said they were stolen. Right in front of them no less. But WAIT—the Headmistress said they owed them things...accidentally. More confused head tilting “But if we owed them... then them taking our things was..... payment? As something they can hold onto until we give back whatever we owe them?” She was starting to wibble “But they took nearly everything. What could we possibly have owed them for them to take all that?”
