Mrs. Alex Turner *asterisks user* Secret Door The talking had worked.
Daisy stood baffled, staring at the polter!lady with eyes wide open. Clearly she own Professors Newton and Marchand an apology -- which she mentally sent. Never in a million years did she think that would work, yet it did. Sure, only one of them wanted to help but surely Miffy could talk Storm into it? Mums and everything; they had superpowers. Even polter!Mums, probably. And the surprises kept on coming because suddenly Levi was being all charming and the Slytherin threw him a look as she bowed down with him.
Oh. OOOOH. That was smart, Gryffindor.
Smiling at both pieces of wasted energy, she forced her features into a sweet, subservient smile. Flattery and vanity, right? That seemed to have worked so far, anyway. Her shield had faded away by now, but that seemed to be completely unnecessary. Head bopping she could just about take. "Storm," She turned to the young polter!demon, eyes following him even as he flew around the corridor. "Peeves wouldn't help us, but we don't need him anyway." Well, she assumed. "We know you're more important. That's why we need you, really." She nodded at both Leon and Levi's words and bowed her head towards poltergeist. Hogwart's hero, that was good. "Everyone would finally realise you're so much better than him."
That was what he wanted, right?? That was why everyone was buttering him up, after all. |
