04 Rocky Raccoon Checked Into His Room

[n0blesse_oblige]

Well now. That's certainly the way to end spirit week with a bang. Or a roar. Or a hiss.

I want to urge all students to NOT try and approach or pet these animals. Especially the Hufflepuffs. Badgers can look very tame and cute, but trust me, they're not. They will take an eye out. Ask my mate Roger. Two months in the hospital wing.

I really love your house mascot James, but I don't think they like me. I think one hissed at me as I passed by to my office.

[n0blesse_oblige]

Yeah it's probably just you, actually...

*smirks at her*

[littlestsister]

Hey hey! I'm loveable! I'm a friend to all animals!

...

Okay, it's definitely growling at me. D: Apparently I am not a friend to badgers.

[n0blesse_oblige]

Right, right, of course... that's why it's hissing at you...

*smirks*

No seriously.. are you alright?

[littlestsister]

... Do you know if badgers like any kind of treats or anything? Maybe if I give it some treats it'll stop that.

Yeah, I'm fine. I didn't get close enough for it to bite me.

Oh, and by the way... you might want to stay away from the dungeons; a lion has decided to make it's den there.

[n0blesse_oblige]

I don't, honestly.. I don't have much experience with actual live badgers...

Oh God.. how did the lion get from the tower down to the dungeons?

Thank God I stay in the North Tower...

[n0blesse_oblige]

but I do fear for the Hufflepuffs and the Slytherins...

[littlestsister]

We'll get it out, don't worry! None will be harmed.

[littlestsister]

Maybe I should chuck some bacon at it...?

I have no bloody idea. I suppose I'll have to help get it out though.

[n0blesse_oblige]

I don't think they eat bacon...

We could always just sacrifice some Gryffindors to it... I bet it would like you.

[littlestsister]

What about radishes...? D: Do you think badgers like radishes?

Ohhhhh nooo. I don't think so. I love your house and all, James, but I don't think so. I probably taste awful anyway.

[n0blesse_oblige]

I'm honestly not sure if they're carnivores or herbivores...

Oh I bet you taste lovely, DG...

*He turns a bit white*

That could be misconstrued slightly inappropriately..

[littlestsister]

Uh, me neither. I'll... just... stay away until I figure it out.

*bites her lip for a bit, then slowly grins*

Yeah? You think so? *gently teasing him*

[n0blesse_oblige]

I.. uh.. I didn't mean...

[littlestsister]

I'm just playing with you, James. I know. :)

[n0blesse_oblige]

I'm so sorry...
