Default Logan, Desiree, Portrait-Elizabeth!

Emma frowned when Bryony's big brother Logan there was saying that Ginger was cuckoo in the head. She would have heeded his advice except instead she found herself enthralled by what happened next and all too quickly. Not before Desiree came by and seemed just as interested in the mirrors and light.

But Ginger .... Elizabeth seemed to think that she was quite literally prodding her and she was prodding her with her words not with touch. She blinked, whispering "I didn't ... touch you.." and even if she did, the woman was in a portrait. She wasn't like, living or anything. But regardless, she took a step back towards her housemate, withholding tears as her gaze kept to the woman in the portrait and she listened to what she was saying. A mirror. Donated by family. Scandal. Ewart Milli-something. All these names were jumbling together in her mind and she found herself looking to the two older students present to see if any of this made sense to them.

Logan seemed to think it was a bunch of bologna, judging from the yawn, but Desiree took interest and pressed on about the mirror, to which the woman in the portrait replied back and knew nothing of what happened to it. The house elves? Was that the same ones who hadn't been doing their job in cleaning?

"Is this ... a different mirror than the mirror of erised?" She'd heard of that mirror, Emma asked curiously. "Where might we ... find your mirror then?" And why all of a sudden was it flashing for attention? It seemed to be dormant for decades... maybe centuries. Class could wait - it seemed there was a more pressing story here.
