Having gotten the Restricted Section right after Airey, the news of there being no food reached her through his dismayed complaint. What did he mean there was no food??? SHE FORCED DOWN A SANDWICH IN PREPARATION FOR THIS. "Aw man, what a rip off. Let's go check somewhere else." It had to be around her somewhere, nevermind that the smell was coming from the one place there seemed to be no food.

It didn't really strike her as important that Professor Tanner was calling the Headmistress...until Professor Airey shushed her the way he did...What? That's when she finally peered into the aisle of the Restricted Section that they were all looking down. The glow....

That glow...

Wait a minute....where was that really happy feeling coming from? Lex already knew how she felt about the book but this was different...enchanting almost. She had no intention of being the Mistress of All Evil again, but the feeling the book brought on was such a nice one that her steps followed her Head of House's closer and closer.

"Just one more read wouldn't hurt...while it's here and all." The dazed tone of the Gryffindor said enough. They were no longer her priority, the book was.
