Clifford really just wanted to get Kiwi out of here as fast as possible.. the poor girl was going to end up traumatized what with all these strange goings on. Floods? In Hogwarts? WHY!? Ellie - who had thankfully followed - obviously wondered the same thing. "I dunno what's going on," he shook his head, breathing a sigh of relief when he noticed Kiwi had managed to get up enough steps to get herself out of the green water. Letting go of the small girl's hand, Clifford turned his attentions back to Ellie. "But it seems to be lake water.. there must be another leak somewhere." Or the Professors hadn't fixed the leak that had flooded the dungeons?
And - did she just congratulate him? Now? When they could possibly drown and die? Ellie was a strange one.
Trying not to panic too much - the water was up to his bloody knees now! - the corners of Clifford's lips quirked up into the briefest of smiles. "Thanks, Bluebell.. but couldn't you of perhaps saved that congratulations for a situation where we're a bit more ... dry?" Shaking an amused head, the Head Boy unconsciously grabbed a hold of Ellie's hand and proceeded to help her up the slimey steps behind Kiwi.
