De-gnoming…was…a…skill? What even was de-gnoming? She was about to ask for further information when the first year Hufflepuff tried to blackmail her. “Y’know, I don’t know the rules on picnicking here but I feel fairly certain that trying to blackmail someone isn’t like, something that’s accepted here.” Did she not know that there’s always a load of food in the Great Hall? Like, for free? Why did she want one of her sandwiches? “Why don’t you try asking nicely, hopefully with a please attached to it, and I’ll see if I can spare half of my sandwich? Sound good hun?” Her head, tilted to one side now, her innocent, try me smile there for all the gnomes to see.

Okay so apparently Emma wasn't very good at explaining herself since the other girl didn't seem to understand. "No.. um ... i guess I just mean they'd be drawn in by the crumbs. So like once they get the crumbs they'd just go to town. There's been quidditch matches delayed for HOURS because of a gnome infestation."

She was doing a terrible job explaining herself. And now she'd even went to make it seem like she was blackmailing the girl??? Wait? She was just hungry and she hadn't exactly made friends with any house elves to sneak her extra food from the kitchens. Where'd this girl get the sandwich anyway? Also how'd she forget her manners? She was typically better than that.

"I ... " was speechless at the girl's sass. "Are you like ... muggleborn or something?" Cause like she never heard of de-gnoming or the rules about the quidditch pitch picnicking so maybe. "I'm sorry. I think I got a little overzealous. See my father was very proactive about us not eating on the quidditch pitch ... but just so you know, the name is Emma, not hun."
