The Gryffindor grinned widely as she nicked the crown from his head. "I'm a Sphinx and this is guarded treasure now. Are you prepared to answer my riddle to get it back?" Did she have to warn him she'd get violent if he got it wrong? He knew that part, right? Unless he was all into the fairy act with their limited intelligence thing. Whoops.
Nooooooooooooo, his crowwwwwwwwn.
Toby made pathetic grabby hands as Lex took his flower crown away, though he didn't really make any real attempt to get it back. Seemed that Lex took it for a reason, and that reason was something to do with her character? AH! Sphinx. Treasure. GOT IT.
The Hufflepuff grinned, despite the loss of his treasured crown, and gave a nod.
"Sure, hit me with it!" he replied, before a thought struck him. Fairies couldn't speak, but as they needed to speak for this activity, he supposed it didn't matter that he wasn't getting THAT into the character, right? 'Cause... Toby liked to talk. A lot. When the mood struck.
"I'll use my fairy smarts." Which was totally a thing.
He stood there, bouncing slightly on his toes in an 'I'M READY' stance. Riddle. Let's do thiiiiiiis.
