Where did that leave them?
Ravenclaws were meant to be smart, and sometimes smart meant making it up as you went along. "It looks like a tiara." Just saying. And if it was a diadem, then... samesies, y'know? Play along, Ravenclaw!
"Do... you... are you a girl?" That question had gone so well when she asked the 'Puff.
Speaking of the 'Puff, the girl was off again, changing costumes and still talking really really loud and close, and Dot had no clue what she was supposed to ask next. This person was a female and she wore disguises and she liked to be set on fire. Was she a spy? Who... no, the fire part seemed way more important.
"Are you dead or alive now? And how long have you been dead, if you are... dead?"
Oh, guessing? You taking notes there, 'Claw? This was how this game was played. "YES YES, good. I wrote that book. I love cheese." Layla wasn't sure whether the sigh she released was a relieved sigh because the lesson was over and she could take the diadem off and leave or it was a sigh of annoyance because she had been cut short. The Ravenclaw kinda wanted the participation points you know? If she had to stay at this place she had better form some allegiance to a house and if she was gonna do a good job she might as well do it really well.
So instead of leaving like the other students were she quickly answered the young girl with a small smile. Kid looked kinda.. Who knew really? Layla wasn’t one of those super doting types, she loved her Nephews but they were pretty much it. “I’m most definitely a girl.. Or a woman rather. A very long dead woman.” Was that good enough? Could she just guess now? “And this thing here” she pointed at the tiara Diadem. “Gives me great wisdom.” Yep. She was practically giving it to her on a plate. Did she have to keep this Scottish accent up?
Now what the miniature Slytherin didn’t know was that she had actually been listening in to her conversation with the other girl. And she had heard all about her cheese loving ways and DID have her textbook open to search. Mostly because she wanted to get this lesson over and done with and the other girl seemed to be stumbling over her guess. She waited for a few minutes just in case she did come up with her answer but when she didn’t the Ravenclaw leant down and whispered into the younger girls ear. “Greta Catchlove.” Back to her normal south London accent. She was right yeah? Of course she was right she had actually looked it up.
Now could she go?
