Curt recoiled as Borr yelled at them, that was the last thing he wanted... to have a Professor getting all mad. Curt sat there silently as Kingston took off his shirt and offered it to Lord Borr to give to the House Elf, and that is when Curt's mind started working at about one hundred miles per hour.

"Sir, I do agree that you have every right to set free this house elf." Curt said, not really thinking about what he was saying. "But if it is alright, could I have it after you release it?" Curt asked, giving Borr a proud grin, and also giving a quick little glance in the direction of the House Elf.

Curt laughed inside his head at the thought, it was probably out of the question. But hey, House Elves were hard to come by these days.
