I'VE CHECKED MY LIST TWICE!!!!

[purepansy]

As everyone knows, English is the most superiour language; hence, I have never found it necessary to engage in any foreign language instruction. After all, most foreigners scramble to learn English themselves -- I've never found myself linguistically unaccomodated whilst traveling through Europe and abroad (Benito is fluent in four-hundred sixteen

They're not my usual brand, but I'll save them for a special occasion, I suppose. And I'll probably find my way down around the kitchens some time later tonight.

The buggy might become an issue later on, but that's mostly storage problems, I think.

[purepansy]

Perhaps when you light one up, you will think of me!!!! I shall be there, so good to know you will be as well.

Boot, just do a shrinking charm on it!!!!

[bootme]

That's actually quite a possibility. The lighting up bit, I mean. And the bit about the kitchens, of course.

And you've obviously never seen the Ravenclaw 7th year boys dorm. I don't think I have space to store a spare handkerchief, even under a shrinking charm. I'll probably have to hide my buggy somewhere in the castle and hope for the best, I suppose, when it's not being used for random acts of solitary mayhem.

[purepansy]

YOU ARE SO DROLL!!!!

No, seeing as I'm a 7th year Slytherin girl, I have not had the chance to be privy to the 7th year Ravenclaw boys' dormitory.

You should charm it to drive around on its own, wreaking havoc randomly!!!!

[bootme]

At times, perhaps.

And I envy you on that point. My life would likely be better if I was never privy to the Ravenclaw boys dormitories in general. Did you know books are apparently like rabbits? You start with two, and before you know it they're everywhere.

That would be...quite amusing, actually. I'd either need spotters or some way to keep an eye on it, however, in that case, because what fun is that kind of thing if you can't see it happen? Well, hearing filtered and mangled stories can be amusing, as well, I suppose, but not as good as seeing it for yourself, of course.

[purepansy]

I don't suppose you'd want to care for Chuckadonna my African elephant, would you?!?!

He might like a ride in the shopping buggy!!!!

[bootme]

I'm afraid that given my aforementioned lack of space and my remarkable ability to either kill or lose any living thing left in my posession, from houseplants on, I'm probably not the best person in the world to keep an eye on Chuckadonna.

[purepansy]

Well, what about that Hufflepuff that you're always in a row with? He's good with Herbology, I'm sure, being a Hufflepuff and all. Surely he'd be brilliant with an elephant, by extension?!?!

[bootme]

As tempted as I am to accept on his behalf, especially given the source and history of the phrase 'white elephant', I'm afraid you'd have to take it up with him if you really believed he was a decent choice.

[purepansy]

OOOO, ELEPHANTS COME IN WHITE?!?! WHOA.

[bootme]

Yes, in fact. They were considered signs of royalty in...India, I believe?

[purepansy]

REALLY? THAT IS FASCINATING!!!! And you know what that means, don't you? IT MEANS SURELY PATIL IS THE ONE WHO WANTS TO TAKE CARE OF CHUCKADONNA!!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP, BOOT!!!!

[bootme]

Any time, I suppose.

[fletchfinchley]

Actually, I'm dismal at Herbology and I've no interest in elephant-sitting while you're in France either.

Make Draco do it. He is your brother, after all.

[purepansy]

No, Draco wouldn't want to.

[fletchfinchley]

It's not really about what he wants though, is it?

It's about what he is obligated to do as your brother.

If Elizabeth was going off to Beauxbatons and had a Chuckadonna I am positive she would leave it in my care.

Alternately, you could ask Hagrid to look after it.
