No, thats cheating! the Ravenclaw boy insisted, My dad rarely picks up his wand to do things, he much prefers the old fashioned way of doing trivial things, it keeps the mind sharp.

Moira raised an eyebrow. "Well then my mind is as dull as...well...whatever else is dull," she said, laughing at how stupid her statement was...but then laughing at Billy's odd excuse for a painted egg. Billy was obviously proud of himself so she wouldn't squelch any of that pride but honestly...who wanted to going hunting for that?

Sounds smashing!

She let out a sound of indignation as the boy shoved more than half of the eggs on her side. That was not at all dividing...that was...three-quartering. "William Sawyer!" she said as she turned to him, her eyes narrowed in a fake glare. "What would your mother say if she saw you not sharing the work load?" But anyways, she got her revenge on the boy with the paint on his nose. Hopefully he wouldn't retaliate...but if he did, he might save it for later when he could get her really good.

"And what are you two up to today?" she asked, leaning over to inspect the baskets of eggs that were being made. "You know, things would probably be easier, Billy, if you just used your wand."

Moira grinned, pleased that people had started to show up. She got to her feet and leaned across the table, putting one arm around the girl in a half hug. "Lovely to see you Abbey!" ,she exclaimed before sitting down again. "And thank you! I've been trying to persuade him all day to just use his wand."

Were just painting eggs for the egg hunt later on, but Im refusing to use my wand and thats that.

She caught Billy's glance, her heart sinking just a little bit, worrying that if Abbey hadn't known about the egg hunt then maybe no one else did. She elbowed Billy in the side gently but continued with her work, a little peeved that they could be painting all the eggs for nothing.

Well, Ill rather have a feminine pink nose compared to what Moiras going to get at a later stage. He winked at the girl, Itll be enough to make you tremble with fear!

"You better not get any ideas, Mr. Sawyer! Or you'll be the one trembling with fear!" And with that she made another dot in the middle of his forehead with green paint. "There Abbey. What do you think of that? Is it his colour?" She grinned at the other girl.

"May I join in, please? Mine probably won't be so nice, but it looks like fun. I'll make one for Jacquie. Is that what you're doing? Making eggs for people?"

"Oh! Have at it! Take some of mine though...Billy has unfairly divided up the work load and it seems I have a few more than him," she said as she handed the girl two eggs. She'd never get through all of them if she didn't get some help.

If you want, its Moiras idea though.

She blushed slightly, keeping her eyes lowered to her egg. She finished the last of her spiral design then set it in her other basket. "It was yours too, Billy...I can't take all the credit."
