What exactly are the Williams siblings up to? I'm getting Magenta and Riff Raff vibes

It wasn't until he was along the fourth hallway, round a corner and down another few conjoining hallways that he stopped and turned to Melanie. The spell Muffliato was nonverbally cast to shield them from any nosy students who happened to be nearby.
"So, it's arrived? The present?" The French slipped out almost automatically but this was a situation that called for it.

Keep up your work.” She looked around curiously. “I want to open it….to examine it. But...I fear now is not a good time.” Melanie tucked it back under her arm. “I think I’ll be keeping it with me.” She hoped her brother didn’t take that to heart, or with offense. She was used to being in charge; she was the more dominant twin and she always had been.
“We will come up with something foolproof. For now...let us go back to your room...and celebrate.” Perhaps with a well deserved message to home.
