Multiple sources using the same map? “Wait. You mean this map? They use this map at Hogwarts or do they have the same technolo- magic at their location?”

When Mamie mentioned last year, Lisa paused. She was hoping to hear more but then she stopped. No one talked about last year and she hit her lip. “Mamie… last year sounded tough,” she said as she dug her fingernails into her arm because she was trying her hardest not to ask about what happened last year. She still didn’t have the big picture. She had breadcrumbs here and there but not the full loaf…. The question she asked next distracted her. Uh… did she look like someone who liked to talk in several degrees of error? She shook her head. “Uhhhh no… but i think running a radio show could be an interesting business? And I like money, business, and pranking. Y’know the hustle.”

Le shrug.

Beat.

“Aaaaand… What about you?”

Margaret blinked. "No, same magic," she clarified. "Probably a bigger map, or multiple maps? Because they care about more places." Right? She didn't know. She was making things up and hoping Lisa was enough younger that she wouldn't catch on for...a year or two. Or maybe Mamie was making things up that were actually right. WHO KNEW?

She nodded at Lisa's comment. Last year was rough. She did not want to think about it, much less talk about it. Andd Lisa was very bright, given the kid didn't press the subject and just switched back to the weather. "Yeah...I...would not...want to talk on the radio," she said, very slowly. Not when she just barely managed to get through her classes without stuttering on the regular. Talking that much, on a radio? It would make her too nervous. She didn't want that.

"What sort of pranking?" Hopefully not anything that would get Lisa into trouble. She seemed like a nice kid, and she didn't want her to get detention or anything.
