Noble had been near the back of the gathering, standing tall in his navy robes and on full alert as the Headmaster spoke. It was never a good sign when they were called to an assembly in the courtyard, and beneath his furrowed brow, his gaze moved over the students. Somehow, he couldn't help but think Malachi was glossing over things; nothing about the founders he'd encountered so far gave him the impression that they'd just 'pop' back into their frames as easily as they'd apparently popped out of them. Even with whatever plan Malachi insisted they had. More than likely, this was going to be something between a wild goose chase and looking for a needle in a haystack, though he wouldn't say no to any of the founders being gone. Helga's insistence that he eat more had become stifling, even for a gastronome like him, not to say of the other disturbances around the castle or Gryffindor's attack on de Nostredame.

"Those of you coming with me, move this way," Noble said, waving his arm to gather them as he spotted Missa, Eiji, Bernadette and Fiona already heading in his direction. "We'll take the lower floors of the castle, starting at the bottom and work our way up to meet the others." And at Eiji's suggestion, he gave a thoughtful nod. "Quite possibly, and given the number of pictures hung in this castle, well worth a try."

"Now, wands out as we head back inside..." Better to be safe, even if he didn't know whether their magic could actually effect a reanimated painting.
