Was the symbol on any of the other umbrellas? Perhaps. There was only one way to find out.

Which was coming up and, in case the change in tone wasn't obvious enough in its tonal shift, he was VERY excited about FINALLY getting to go to Hogwarts.

"If you say so," he teased as he finished HIS label of the photo and than capped the sharpie, allowing his cousin to take over for the rest of the decorations. "It makes for a more interesting caption this way though." He probably should discourage her from laying across the table like that, considering how improper it all was, but she had him easily distracted with her between the lines request to open the table's umbrella. "You don't think someone stuck it with a Sticking Charm, do you?" he asked as he pushed his chair back out again so he could stand. He wasn't willing to admit that that would make for a clever prank...but it would make for a clever prank.

Tilting his head a bit to the side, Cooper gave one of the poky ends a tug and found that it moved easily enough and even had a bit of a crunch to it. That didn't sound very ... sanitary. He gave another section a tug and found that it too moved, so maybe he could actually get it open. "You gotta scooch over a bit, Kiz," he informed her as he leaned over the table a bit and shook the stand a bit before his thumb grazed over the switch and pushed it in while yanking up the pole with his other hand. The crunching noise was there again, almost like he might rip the fabric of the umbrella, but with some more jostling and grunting on his end the umbrella sprung open.

"Tad ----- ah?"

What was THAT doing there?

As long as Kiz continued to be favorite, she would continue to laugh at all Cooper's jokes. (Though she would likely laugh even if this weren't to be the case because she found him to be very funny and Kiz was never too far from an explosion of giggles anyway.) "I'll hang it up in my dorm!" You know who else was excited about FINALLY getting to go to Hogwarts? THIS kid.

And. She DID say so! Kinsay attempted to frown at cousin Cooper, though in truth, frowning was even more difficult an endeavor than eye rolling. But in her defense! Cooper was the one that made it difficult to frown, so that was his fault! She made sure to channel all this energy into making the photo frame look nice though, sticking her tongue out in concentration and adding her signature underneath his label. It was a little messy, but she thought that maybe that added to its charm. She looked up again from her doodling, to tilt her head in confusion. "That would be so rude!" Besides, why would anyone want to stick an umbrella!? It made no sense. Clearly Kizzy's brain was not wired for pranking just yet.

She finished up her work, capping the Sharpie, just as Cooper moved to tend to the umbrella. It was good he could pick up on her unspoken request. Kinsay made lots of those. Besides, if anyone were to get it open, she was sure Cooper could. Giving him a sheepish look, she scooted back so that she was sat out of the way and on the edge of the table now, her feet dangling off of it. She liked sitting up here. What she didn't like, however, was all the crunching the umbrella was doing. Maybe it was old? Or maybe someone had spilled their ice cream all over the inside? OR maybe something died in it?!

Either way, Kinsay was prepared for a RANGE of explanations.

G A S P !

Except this one.

Her eyes grew twice their usual size as she looked from the painted fabric to her cousin. "COOPER! Do you know that's the sign of the deathly hallows? AND that I saw one in Ollivanders when I went with mummy? AND the man who wasn't Mr. Ollivander said there was one on the fountain too? AND ........... " She paused, thoughtfully (and to catch her breath). "What does it mean, the greater good?" And. Breathe. She wasn't used to saying so much in one go.
