A false sense of security perhaps? The Mediwitch wasn’t prepared to be soaked again so reached into her bag to produce some loose change which was gently dropped into the azure waters.

The small chuckle that graced her lips in response to the man came out in a musical sort of way. Ruby may not have inherited the angelic voice of her mother but she was brought up to be a prim and proper lady and cackling was not in her agenda. “You must’ve done something really offensive” she teased lightly. “But evidently so did I.” She once again glanced down at the ruined shopping list and cursed herself for not writing it out in invisible ink.
A fountain hating to be ignored. “Reminds me of a certain poltergeist.” The ghosts of Hogwarts had been one thing to get used to during school, the trickster another story. And he certainly wasn’t one who liked not to have everyone’s attention. His gaze echoing hers as he looked to the cherubs himself. So innocent they could appear at times. And yet so troublesome in reality. You would think the shopkeepers and customers would have banded together to see it removed.

It was then that Noah noticed where her attention kept landing…a piece of parchment held within her grasp. “Hopefully it didn’t cause too much trouble,” he remarked truthfully. He himself would live with being hit in the face with water, no skin off his nose, but the personal assistant couldn’t help but wonder if she had had worse luck.
