Febby cast him a look of pure annoyance. At this point he was really just not being any kind of helpful, other than slowing her down. "How else would you like a young girl to greet a man she doesn't know when he grabs her by the wrist in a back alley? I was raised to take care of myself." She only had one brother, but he was her twin so she'd started practicing punching him in the womb. And she wasn't really raised to go punching people on the street but he didn't need to know that.

"The faster you help me catch the pig, the sooner you'll be shot of me." Febs pointed out with a raise of her eyebrows and a slow grin. Maybe she could appeal to his practical side. Or maybe she'd annoyed him to the point of giving up, who knew. "Or you can go the long way around and we'll trap her between us, but who knows if you'll even find the right dead end in this mess."

Oh so casually she nodded her head upward to suggest they do it her way. All he had to do was give her a ten finger boost and she could see over the wall and he could see up her skirts for all she cared at this point. All he would see was petticoat anyway! Wouldn't it be handy if she'd figured out her animagus transformation by now and then she could just scoot through the hole after Lydia, providing she was something small enough that was. Ugh! How handy that would have been!
