And Sophie was going to remember his offer if she needed someone or an adult to talk to.

Leo turned his full attention to Mo and immediately shook his head sadly "I'm terribly sorry Mo but you have to turn your badge in now as Headmistress Bunbury instructed on the train. It's for your own safety. Until the Aurors make a breakthrough in their investigation into the threat against student athletes and quidditch players in particular we can't risk taking any chances. For all we know the person(s) behind the threat could be looking to target you and the other ex captains West and Kaiden with their next attack and that is the last thing we want. So please give me the badge Mo." If he could allow it then Leo would have gladly let Mo keep his badge but at the current time no.

"There are other ways to be a captain/leader of Ravenclaw house. You don't need a badge to be a good role model for the other years. From what I've heard you take interest in the younger eagle's wellbeing as well as your peers which is very commendable of you." Here he nudged his head Sophie direction as an example. "And you take your studies seriously and aim to do well in classes." Leo finished off. If he had to he could probably count off even more ways Mo shined as a student leader of his house to cheer the sad boy up.

He didn't know what to call it. Mo pulled his hand free and ruffled Sophie's hair before turning back to the librarian. "Actually, sir, I was wondering... if maybe I could keep it? Just until the end of term? I know it doesn't mean I'm anything other than regular old Mo, but it encourages me to try to... be more on my own? To be a captain without being the captain. I'll give it back at end of term. No one will miss it or anything."

"Uh huh, he mentors me in life." She was pretty happy about that, couldn't he tell? "But potions, too. S'my best subject. I made him my mentor right after his first class last term. Saw the greatness in him, y'know? And he apparently saw it in me, too, 'cause he made me his protege pretty gladly. He's a cool guy. S'like my second dad - lotta wisdom and insight. M'glad you guys are friends." And, though she wasn't going to say it out loud and embarrass Culloden, she was pretty sure she was helping him, too.

She nodded at Toby being a Hufflepuff. Of course he was. Sophie was positive that, if someone had to pick a Hufflepuff out of a line-up with Tobes in it, he would get called upon straight away. Maybe it was his smile or his baby face or the way he couldn't stay still, as if his joy was constantly trying to purge itself from his being. She wasn't sure, but there was just something overwhelmingly Hufflepuff about him.

Though she wasn't all over Mo, Sophie was squeezing his hand like he'd defy gravity and never be able to come back down again if she let go. It was meant to be encouraging, but it probably was stressing him out - she realized that only when Kitridge denied the request to keep the badge, and Sophie deflated, dropping Mo's hand. But why? "'Scuse me, sir, but you said... their next attack, like they've already attacked before. Have they? Did someone get hurt?" All along, Sophie had doubted how serious the threat was, but if there was someone who had already been attacked over it... well, that made the situation seem a lot more dire.

Then, as if she felt that both of them needed to hear it, she stated firmly, "Mo will always be our captain and best leader." No offense to Nigel and Dora. "He's looked out for all of us more than anyone. He's patient and kind and caring and soft-spoken and good-humored and knowledgeable and sincere, even with the first years, and..." And what? She didn't know, so she just shrugged. She wanted to tell Kitridge that Mo deserved a badge, and they should consider making Mo a co-prefect with Nigel. But... she was almost certain Mo wouldn't like that, because it might make him uncomfortable or embarrassed to have a little third year fighting for him. Mo probably wanted to hold onto whatever pride he had left.
