"One little pussycat, two little pussycats, three little pussycats..."

Professor McGonagall quickly choked back her mouthful of tea; coughing slightly, she turned back to the only other occupant of the Hogwarts staff room at the moment. "Beg your pardon?"

Professor Umbridge looked up from her book with her typical sickening smile. "Would you look at this lovely book some of my students sent me? It was so very sweet of them - if only I knew who they were."

Professor McGonagall wrinkled her nose slightly, but obligingly leaned nearer to see the book. She blinked in utter amazement: staring back at her from the cardboard pages were hundreds of fat cats, lolling about, mewling, and blinking big, blue eyes. Professor McGonagall raised an eyebrow at her ... colleague.

"It's ... very unique," she supplied vaguely, and subtly waved her hand at her teacup, vanishing the remnants of her tea; with the empty cup in hand she stood to leave.

Before the conclusion of her break, however, she made a quick trip past the library, and confirmed her suspicions with the disappearance of the restricted section's The Hypnotizing Book of Hypnosis by Kant Puttitoun. As she swept back to her classroom, she privately noted to give a slight raise to Fred and George Weasley's Transfiguration marks for their unconventional efforts.

End.
