Filch had always thought oiling the knight statues a rather annoying and boring chore. But as life went on and Mrs. Norris found a tomcat companion, he threw himself into his work.
He roamed the castle, oiling the statues. One Thursday morning, shortly after midnight, one of the statues creaked after he oiled it. Filch lurched forward, rag and can in hand, but the knight’s gauntlet stopped him. The creak had been one of gratitude, acknowledgement. He went to the statue more and more frequently.
After all, when you have someone who loves you, the knights take care of themselves.
