So Dory had forgotten the scarf, but had asked someone to get it for him rather than leaving it here. Zelda couldn't decide if that was better or worse. Their last Hanukkah with their mother Zelda had been fifteen, still very much a child, and thei first winter in Hogsmeade. Delia's gift for her had been a copy of the muggle book Treasure Island, and it wasn't exactly the sort of thing Zelda could carry around with her on a daily basis — was not the sort of thing she could lose.
But it sat on her bookshelf and sometimes she opened the cover and looked at the To Zelda - Dec. 1883. Love, Mama scrawled on the inside cover and she knew that she was never going to lose it, that she'd let the binding fall apart if she had to. If Dory wore the scarf regularly then maybe it was the same — or maybe he didn't think of it at all, because he was leaving it behind and sending randoms to go get it.
"Oh, I didn't realize you were so close," Zelda asked, with a blank innocence that was largely manufactured. She didn't know most of Dory's friends personally if they were older than she was, but this man (Greengrass, maybe?) was certainly closer in age to Nemo, so there was a part of her question that wasn't entirely untrue.
