Gryffindor for life Notorious Niffler

The case of the Blood Bird was the first real mystery to happen at Hogwarts during Emmeline's time there so far. She wished that it wasn't such a sad or scary one, buuut she kind of wanted to solve it EVEN MORE ever since Professor Wayland said that it was creature blood on the ceiling. That was practically asking her to get involved, mhm.

Emmeline had had some interesting dreams the night before, and she knew that loads of her Housemates were worried about this whole blood bird thing. Which naturally made her more worried 'cause the older kids had been here when there was a monster attack and stuff. So the twelve-year-old was going to proceed with caution for her investigation -- but she was totally still going to investigate. And why not? Harry Potter and his group of superhero Gryffindor friends had solved a huuuuge mystery at Hogwarts in their veeeery first year. That was definitely solid proof that kids could be useful too, mhm. Plus, even though this Blood Bird mystery was all sad and scary and stuff, there was NO way that it could compare to the Chamber of Secrets being reopened or something.

She was kind of disappointed to see that there was already a crowd of students hanging out around the bulletin board, though allll of them 'cept for one Hufflepuff girl had been here the night before. Emmeline waved and said, "Hiiiii!" to everyone before craaaaning her neck up to get a proper view of the blood bird. Which didn't seem to be reacting to Ms. Caretaker's potions at ALL.

Oh and there was Mr. Argyle the house elf too!! Emmeline BEAMED at the elf and asked gently, "Umm excuse me, Mr. Argyle, but can I help you?" 'Cause she figured he was trying to help Ms. Caretaker clean the blood off and stuff, but he was a liiiiittle too small to get up the ladder by himself. She wasn't opposed to helping clean up the mess, either, 'cause it was interesting that Ms. Caretaker's potions weren't working. Plus, she could get a closer look at the blood that way, mhm. Not that she really knew what she was looking for, but it didn't hurt to try!
