Slytherin: Can you do that thing?

Hufflepuff: What thing?

Slytherin: You know, the thing that makes me happy.

Hufflepuff: Oh, right. *smiles*

Slytherin: *softly* Thanks...

Slytherin: I'm upset and nothing can cheer me up.

Ravenclaw, bringing Hufflepuff into the room: Nothing? 

Slytherin, fighting back a smile: Damn it.
