Lisa tapped on one of the suits of armour, frowning slightly as another clangy noise escaped the metal. "I swear I heard you say something." She said, with her hands on her hips while glaring at the knight. Standing on her tippy toes, she moved the helmet's opening and peered inside, letting out a small yelp as it started to swag, before finally toppling over.
Moving the metal limbs off of her, she let out a groan and bent down, trying to fit the pieces back together.

Thom, who was stood in the shadows a couple of feet away, grinned. "You little vandal." he chimed. "What you up to, Gryffindor girl?"

Lisa turned to the new voice and blushed slightly, letting out a small laugh. "Erm, destroying knights in shining armour it looks like!" Standing up, dragging a metal leg with her, she leaned it against the wall, before looking back at the mess before her. Turning to the boy, she picked up another piece and tried to fit it to the leg. "Don't suppose you like puzzles?" She grinned sheepishly.

Thom smiled darkly. "Only if it's the puzzle of who you are."
He moved forward and held the suit up for her, as it had once again begun to slum towards the floor. "You look like the kind who could destory a knight any day." he winked.

Lisa looked at the boy, positive she was blushing, before smirking slightly, "Well aren't you just the charmer!" Pulling the strap of her book-bag over her shoulder, she looked over at the knight once more, before grinning. "Lisa Lycott," she said while holding out a hand, "Most-likely to single-handedly destroy Hogwarts. And you are?"

Thom glanced at the pleasant rose that had just graced her cheeks. With difficulty he reached out and took her hand into his. "Pleased to make your accquiantance, Lisa Lycott." He turned her hand upwards and bought it to his lips, giving it a brief kiss. "I'd be Thom."

Lisa bit her lip, feeling herself blush once more, and lowered her gaze, staring at their hands. After a moment she nodded toward the armour hanging on the wall, smiling appreciatively. "Thanks a lot for the help- I'm glad it wasn't a Slytherin who witnessed my fall," she laughed slightly, a faint blush still on her cheeks.

Thom released her hand gently and stood back from the armour, admiring their quick handy work. One leg was bent a little too femininely, but it was as it had been nonetheless. He secretly smirked to himself, Lisa's face still flush out of the corner of his eye.
"And where were you on your way to before you decided to pull this one? By the looks of it he was playing hard to get." He began to walk casually, jerking his head for Lisa to join.

Lisa laughed and sent one last glance to the armour, before walking ahead swiftly to catch up with Thom. "Just exploring, really," she said while walking alongside him and looking around every once in a while. "I've heard there are tons of hidden corridors around here- I wanted to find at least one." Pausing she looked at Thom with bright, curious eyes. "You wouldn't happen to know where any are, would you?"

Thom considered her for a moment, expressionless and silent.
Then an almost sinister grin stretched slowly across his face, raising the corners of his eyes so that he resembled a goblin up to no good. "I was wondering when someone was going to ask me that."
He jumped up onto the podium of an ugly statue they had just approached, and wrapping one arm around the hold warlock's neck, Thom pretended to take off the hat he wasn't wearing. "Come one come all to Mr Moen's magical milander! Where would you like to go, Lycott m'lady? Past the thinnest walls of the Slytherin common room? The dusty remains of the fifth floor storage room, full of stashed ill-intentioned spell books and darkly toyd, or perhaps just a dream trip to the good old Room of Requirement?" he gave a chuckle.

Lisa stared at him shocked for a moment, her eyebrows raising slowly. Then, after a moment of silence, she began to laugh delightedly as she gazed up at him perched on the statue. Brushing some hair from her face, she began to tap her chin thoughtfully before her eyes lit up.
"The Slytherin common room you say?" With an impish grin, she tilted her head to one side and glanced at him inquiringly. "Why, Mr. Moen, I'd love for you to show me the way!"

Thom threw his head back and laughed heartily. Jumping down he linked his arm with Lisa's. "I was hoping you'd say that. Listening in on those slithering slimeballs is one of my most favoured past times. Last time I was there I heard banter about the most suspicious infection..." ((Do you want to make a new thread on the Common Room board? We can entitle it "Spying on Slytherins" and see who we attract ))

Lisa followed his lead, smiling brightly as they passed numerous corridors lined with more knights. She smirked at Thom, her eyes dancing with mirth, hoping for an adventurous evening.
((Hehe. Sounds good, but i've got to go for a bit- maybe the night :s Finish this later?))
