Re: Septimus and Quintella
"They do if you're sitting in a lesson of History of Magic. Or muggle studies. You could do either of those jobs brilliantly, Ella," Septimus said as they walked, remembering only too well how much help his sister had been to him as he'd gone through his studies. He wasn't stupid by any means, but sometimes, it always helped to get a fresh perspective, a second opinion, and this was what Ella had always done for him. "Just a shame for Hogwarts that I need you at Septima," he said, smiling.
"I'll show you everything that I can think of, and if there is anything at all you think I've forgotten, you need to tell me so that I can take you there straight away," he said, knowing he wasn't liable to forget things he'd written and spoken of so long ago.
He laughed when she said that. "No, I don't, but I would hate to give any false impressions. My sister, potentially deluded, tells me often that I'm quite pretty, and I shouldn't like to cause any other fine lady disappointment. You don't keep me from anything, Ella."
