*hugs Fan back* But it's really great to have you back and that's what matters. So if you just need anything, any help at all, all you have to do is ask.
And I can help you clean your room if you want, and getting your beautiful crayons back in radiant order again. So cheer up; a sad face doesn't look good on you.

*hugs Tasia* Oh honey, don't worry about the place. CHERUB will be easy enough to fix - I do have batteries and stuff at the G&G - and the rest of this is just stuff. We'll all help and it'll be over in no time at all. What matters is that we have you back. I've missed you so much.
*leaning close and whispering* I do want to know what happened, dear, but when and if you're ready, okay?

*gives a watery grin and nods* Of course. Thanks, you guys. *wipes her eyes inconspicuously and looks around* I suppose I should start with the...*sneezes abruptly* Sorry, this place is horribly dusty. I'll dust then, and if anyone would like to forage for batteries, they're welcome to do so. *looks around her round room, and mutters quietly* I suppose it's good to be home.

*grins and hugs Fan some more* Hey, we've already said we're going to help you, right? Let's get some dusters and shine up this place.
*KoNeko wipes down the bench, reaches into her pockets and pulls out some cocoa, mugs, milk and lemonade and busies herself making refreshments for everyone*

I'll get the dishes if you lot dust. *moves to the sink and turns on the tap* Shall we just clear up the worst of it, and then go for batteries? I think a bit of an outing would do us all some good. *picks up a cloth and begins scrubbing the dishes*
Lemonade would be shplendid, that'sh very conshiderate. *glances at Tasia to see if the Connery accent amuses her*

*smiles rather sadly, eyes falling out of focus for a moment as she slides into a nostalgic daydream. suddenly sneezes again, snapping out of it* An outing sounds lovely, En. And I could certainly take some hot cocoa if you don't mind, Kit-Kat. *proceeds to dust of the crayon walls, sneezing repeatedly*

So, a cocoa for Fan, and a lemonade for En. Hermy, what would you like? I'll just get the kettle boiling...
*she finds some clean glasses and pours a tall glass of lemonade for En, decorating it with a paper umbrella stuck through a lemon wedge*
Here you go. Sorry, I was trying to be festive and that's all I could think of in a pinch.
*glances at Fan* Your cocoa will be ready in just a moment... it's the least I can do after all that great hospitality you showed me when I was kidnapped.

*laughs* I can't imagine why you'd think so. I thought I was terribly ruthless. *a pause* In my defense, I had you tied up quite tightly.... *pauses again, trying to think of some other nasty thing she did* And....um.... .....I may have burned your toast a bit.

*laughs* Nevertheless you make a great host Fan! Much better than us Gryffs as Ko, can also confirm.
*turns to Ko* Oh, and if you have any apple juice or any type of cold juice, that would be really great!!
So what would you like me to do? I can help with dusting, putting things in order...just say the word.

*shocked* Gah! You burnt my toast?! Noooo!! How could you? I trusted you with my lunch! Trusted you!!
*clears throat* Er, I don't recall the toast being burnt in any way at all... it was actually delicious in my memory but hey, even burnt toast is better than what's happening with the Gryffs in their dungeon... no offence Hermy!
Speaking of, I think Sands and I could do with a spot of rescuing...
Okay! One apple juice coming up! Just hang on, I'll have to fix up Fan's cocoa first... did you want (plain, non-sparkly) marshmallows as well Fan honey?
*the kettle whistles, and she puts the cocoa in the mug and hands it to Fan*
Now... apple juice... I'm sure we had some around here... *scrounges*

Thanks for the lemmy, Ko. *eyes the umbrella for a moment* How is business at that pub I don't know you run in Knockturn Alley, anyway?

No offence at all Ko! Because you must also remember that I too was taken into captivity. But at least, the berry-tasting manacles were good right?
*jumps to her feet* I'll go see if I can find some good stuff for cleaning in Filch's office. I won't be long.
*with that she runs out of the room, hoping to meet Peeves on the way to cause a diversion*

*sniffs defensively* Fine, next time we go a-kidnapping, you guys tend to the captives. I'll test the traps, or something. *waves Hermy off and goes to check on the crayon machine* I wonder if this thing is still working...*tries a few buttons with no success* En darling, mind giving me a hand over here? You once told me you could fix minor plumbing problems, so I'm trusting your expertise with my crayon machine.

Anyway... how did you know about my pub? *suspicious look*
*pours an apple juice (made from red apples ) for Hermy, and then having finished with refreshments for the moment, ambles over to the crayons on the floor*
Hey, Fan, did you have a specific colour scheme with arranging your crayons? Or did you just do it by eye?

*puts the lemonade down on the counter* Well, Ko - it's not like I never get to the city. I did stop in there once It was a rough day - I was trying to work up the nerve to - uh - well anyway. *clears throat*
Oy. Tasia, can we take this panel off? Maybe there's just a snapped gear or some crud in the works or something. *examines the vent at the rear of the machine and sneezes* Hang on a sec... Scourgify! *waits a moment, then checks the vent again* That's better.
