The smell of cookies was wafting out into the hall and pulled Peter into the Common Room. He realised he didn't know the girl who was making the cookies, but he hoped she'd want hardy taste testers. He bowed to her and nodded to the other boys in the room.

Peter laughed. "Don't worry, Lady. We don't prank the unsuspecting."

"It would depend on the person, I suppose," Peter said. "And last week was warm enough that swimming could have occurred if the glitter was an issue."

Tempe smiled shyly at that. "I appreciate that. It's good to know that there are still some decent people around."

"That's true," Tempe said. "I really wish I'd thought of that last week. I'll have to remember that if it becomes an issue again."

"More than a few here, I've found," Peter said seriously. "Most here treat their duty with respect."

"If a glitter monster attacks you, come find me, and I'll remind you," Peter said, grinning now. "Though I can't swear on my honour that I won't laugh first."

"True," Tempe replied. "But some obliterate that respect like a man-eating bear on a sugar-high." It was possible she'd eaten too many cookies.

"You get free rein to laugh if it happens again," Tempe replied. "But I think next time I'll wear a hazmat suit. Because, inside a container, glitter is certainly a hazardous material."

"Your analogy power is strong," Peter commented as he tried not to laugh. He grew more serious as he asked, "has someone been rude to you or insulted you in any way?"

"Hazmat suit? I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with the term."

Tempe looked at Peter quite seriously, and said, "Yes, actually. It was on the first day of school, too. I'm told it wasn't the type of thing that usually happens here, and not to judge everyone by that one example, but it wasn't a very nice welcome."

Sure, she'd tried to forget about Bel's rudeness, but it still cut deep.

"It's a suit that one wears when handling hazardous materials, such as unidentified chemicals, and highly infectious micro-organisms."
