Pips u so cute I can't stand it ;______; astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf Eiji had forgotten how much of a nuisance he found all the hiccuping to be, but silently reminded himself through a deep exhale that it was out of his control and simply one of the mechanics of this particular house elf. Though maybe he could discuss something with Professor Noble to help alleviate said hiccuping?
It was more curiosity that compelled him to take the list to examine more than a genuine want to help. House elves were more something his mum dotted upon and it was a bit embarrassing finding scribblings in old yearbooks or bathroom stalls referring to his mum as the 'part house elf of Hogwarts'. "I know these," he nodded confidently. He wouldn't bother telling Pips that some could be easily collected rather than purchased. He didn't have the patience for a house elf crisis. Orders being orders and all that. Now, it had been QUITE a while since Charles had been a student and even then he had never been particularly friendly with the house elves. Certainly not enough to know any of them by name. He was not surprised that his grandson was, however. He was more his mother's son that he would let on. Ah, a testament to what his precious sun blossom had accomplished during her Hogwarts years!
"Oh well isn't that just SPLENDID! Eiji, you can help our floppy eared friend out!" Charles was still unsure what to make of Trentula's decision to make the house elves act as the caretakers of Hogwarts rather then fill the spot with another capable hand, though he supposed it made sense as well and was more pooling the school's already existing resources rather than expediting. And he still couldn't be MORE proud of the young man in his accomplishment of becoming Headmaster! "Do hope these ingredients are for general supply rather than any one specific purpose."
He was teasing. Somewhat.
