So carry on, act as disappointed as you want. My life won't change a bit."

She crossed her arms, still balancing her teacup on her saucer, and gave the girl a LOOK. "Whose authority do you have, hmm? A house elf's? Because I certainly don't think they would EVER say a bad word about me." Those elves LOVED her. "Let me guess: You were told a frightening bedtime tale by some other Gryffindor." Those idiots should just be crammed into their tower at all times and not allowed out into the rest of the castle.
That laugh had Amur flinching, and had the stare not drilled her feet into the ground, she would have taken a few steps back. It was the laugh of a woman on the edge of doing something dangerous. Like eating her. Did the Headmistress eat students that got out of hand? And the kittens, there had been no denial of the kittens. Maybe that's what the big pot in the kitchen was for.

.... Double GULP.

"I'm....I'm not interested in your life. I'm....interested...in theirs." In fixing theirs to be exact. She knew the Headmistress had it plushy and comfy. Look at the teacup and the robes and the slippers. But she was starting to sound like her parents did when they were punishing her for something she had done wrong. Was she wrong? She couldn't be. Professor Quigley wouldn't lie.....Oh that laugh...

"And it will if .... if...." If what? "If I tell the press like Professor Adele Rodney did!"

Wait. NO! No no no no. That wasn't the right way to go! That had gotten Rodney axed and she had promised she wouldn't do the same thing.

This time, Amur did skitter back a few steps. Was it just her or had the Headmistress grown a few feet? And what was this? She wanted her source? Amur pressed her lips into a thin line and spoke between them, while moving them as little as possible. Her lips were sealed, see? "I ain't givin' up my source. But it's a good one. And no bedtime story neither."

As for the house elves, she reached up and pinched her lips together. Wouldn't say couldn't say. Not without Zander. She had promised not to touch the elf topic without him.
