”I would say the regular dustings the caretakers gives them make them feel less alone?...and cleaner,” he would miss showering had he been a suit of armor. Showers were great the way the water relaxed the mind and body.
When the girl asked if he had gone to Hogwarts all Raf did was sigh and shake his head, his poof of hair wiggled along with his head. ”No, it seems like an interesting school, I went to Durmstrang with Hirsch…actually your grounds keeper and flying Professor was my Professor,” he chuckled as he thought back on the charms and dark creatures classes he had taken with Professor McLeod. ”Groundskeeper McLeod is quite well versed in dark creatures and charms if you ever need to ask anyone about them,” he admitted with a grin.
She never really meant to be as jumpy as she always was when first hearing a voice after being in the silence. Between professors, students, and ghost you wouldn't think she'd ever be scared. She just was like that though so it was just something she knew would happen every time whether she liked it or not. Turning her eyes first to her professor then to the armor again she nodded. "It's good that I'm not one of them, I would sneeze from all the dust." She wasn't allergic, but too much of it would make anyone sneeze. Did the Armor sneeze if they did come to life? She was very curious now as to whether they could or not.
Oh yes someone was there cleaning, she should have known. The elves probably did their share of the cleaning. "Think they ever move for him or the elves? Maybe they lift their arms so they can clean their arm pits." It was just a thought, dust settled there too most likely.
Her head of house was a professor before coming to Hogwarts? She stared at the man for a moment, because really McLeod didn't seem to be old enough to have students becoming staff. Did she really not pay that much attention to him or did he just age very well. "Why would he take just a ground keeper job if he was a professor?" She wasn't trying to be rude, but she was nosy and curious about this. "I'll have to keep that in mind." She wasn't really into asking for help, but she did know her head of house more then the new charms professor or the new creatures. Her eyes going back to the armor. "Can you make them move? So she wasn't going to let this go, because she wanted to see them do something now that it was in her head.
