She gave a little bow and began beating the trunks with her whisk once again, mumbling complaints under her breath.
"I won't miss it." She reassured the elf. "All this will get done a lot faster if we help." And yes, she made it a we now that Jessa was there and this little first year was apparently being roped into helping too.

SPOILER!!: Toddles and Quinn

Toddles huffed, his ears drooping with obvious disinterest at the task at hand. "Maybe Toddles should go help some place else. Toddles not good at trunksies." He whined, entirely unhappy with his current preoccupation. Teenagers didn't like a lot of work and this teenage elf was no exception.

He brightened at the sight of two students, immediately abandoning the trunk of a Slytherin third year. "Miss Bel! Miss Jessa!" He remembered them of course. "Tinka might want you at feast but Toddles loves helps! You can grab this trunksies here and," Large eyes looked to the new one he did not know. "Miss Quinn, Toddles and other elfsies would happy if you helps too." He glanced briefly to Tinka and Schmoop hoping they would agree without Algamus around to spoil the fun.

"What do you need me to do?"

This work needed to be done and he did not want to do it.

"Then Miss Quinn can takes this one to Gryffindor--takes ALL these to Gryffindor." There were a lot of them and more still to be sorted once the studentsies were sorted. He did not want to wait that long, he wanted to do something fun.

Toddles began gathering trunks about the girl, stacking them until they were almost as tall as her, encasing her in a small square. "When that done, you and Toddles can take these." And by that, he meant she could too.

Okay she really did want to help, but...well, "There's a slight issue with this plan, Toddles. Several in fact. I just got sorted. I don't know who anyone is," which made putting the luggage into the correct person's dorm problematic. She continued, "I don't know where any of the common rooms are," which made getting them to said dorm rooms in order for the first issue to arise, problematic. "And aren't we prohibited from enter another house's common room?"

There was also missing the food, and...well, she didn't honestly care if she missed the headmistress's speech, but the food. "Is there another way I can help?" Preferably where she'd be able to eat at some point, so staying in the Great Hall would be an appreciative bonus.

Also she'd like out of this enclosed cell of luggage, and wasn't above potentially damaging the trunks to free herself if Toddles didn't free her first. "Little help, please?"


Oh Toddles. Bel cut a little look toward Tinka and Schmoop and wondered if the reason Tinka was less than enthused about this task was more due to the fact that Toddles had apparently been assigned to do it with them, but Bel took a deep breath and stepped forward.

"We're deffo happy to help, Toddles, but I was thinking, maybe we could sort the trunks down here, and you three could use house elf magic to get all the trunks to their right rooms? You're much better at that sort of thing, but I reckon we could sort everything pretty quickly, and then it'll be done real fast, and we can get on with the feast and you three and any other elves that are coming can go and do... whatever you were planning to do next and maybe take a break and.... have an elf party or something?" Yes that would work, right? The Australian girl suggested hopefully.

"And I dunno about Jessa and--" What was the new girl's name again oh yeah, "--Quinn, but I'd love to see how ace you are at moving things to the right dorms after we've helped sort everything, Toddles. I reckon house elf magic is bonza." And well, the fact that Quinn was now trapped in a cell of trunks was a good example of that right? Hang on a sec there, Quinn.
