[She knew she shouldn't have taken it. She knew it was a bad idea especially since Mistress hadn't told her to. But she knew that it was broken and Mistress was sad and wished that she could wear it. Sunny was sad when Mistress was sad and she wanted to help... even if that meant doing something that she hadn't been told to do... and taking something without permission.

She didn't see it as stealing, of course, since she wasn't taking it for herself. A house elf could never steal from their master or mistress, after all. She had taken it so she could fix it... not that she was actually very good at fixing things such as this but she could fix other things and there had to be a way, right? Right.

It was between meals and Sunny had some time to herself. Of course she was meant to use it to eat, herself, but this was more important. She is currently one of the tables in the empty Dining Hall with a locket on the table in front of her. There were some small tools nearby, the perfect size for her little hands and the delicate work she was trying to do. She stood on the bench so she could properly bend over the necklace and work on fixing that broken clasp.]

[Chell's sneaking into the dining hall... Freee food yaaaay! But she notices the house elf standing on a bench.]

Hello...What are you doing?

[She peers down at the locket...]

[She jumps. Oh no! She was caught. She tries to hide the locket, looking up guiltily at the girl]

Nothing. [Which roughly means, "Sunny wasn't doing anything. Sunny was just standing here."]

[Chell cocks her head sideways and regards the little house elf.]

It looks like you were trying to fix something... Could I help?

[She's serious.]

[still having all his memories means Gale doesn't know the first thing about house elves. all he knows, when he heads for the Dining Hall to get something to eat, is that he sees a very little girl at the table, and he didn't think there were students that young here...]

Hey, are you okay?

[She starts, scrambling to try to hide the locket. Oh no! She knew she should have found somewhere more private to do this. She looks up guiltily]

Okay... [Which clearly means "Yes, Sunny is okay. Sunny is working."]

[Gale knows nothing of house elves, and as such, he's confused and a little concerned]. Hey, you don't have to stop just because I'm here. There's plenty of room for both of us.

[There must not have been food here when it wasn't a mealtime, huh? Still, Italy was trying very hard to get used to going to the right places at the right times, but he'd gotten all turned around when he set off for his apparent classes. Not that he minded coming to the Great Hall again!

He's quick to spot the little figure on the bench and he toddles over, looking at them curiously.] Excuse me?

[Busted! Sunny tries to cover the locket with her little hands as she looks up at the student]

Yes? [Which roughly means "Yes, sir, may Sunny help you?"]

What are you doing? [He pulls himself up onto the bench next to Sunny.] Can I see?

Church drifted through the dining hall on his way to watch Alli and her team practice for their match. Ghosts get the best shortcuts.
He wasn't expecting to find anyone in the empty room this time of day. House Elves generally kept to the kitchens and back rooms.

Curiosity piqued, he bobbed closer. The tiny elf was working on something but he couldn't see what. He floated around to get a better look.

"Sunny?" It was that house elf that had taken a liking to Alli.

[Her talk with Leo had calmed her enough that she wasn’t ranting about the locket anymore, in fact the plans to spend Halloween together had her almost grinning. Her mood remained light as she made her way into the great hall. Providence it would seem was on her side as she spotted a familiar house elf and she waved a greeting, though stopping half way through her name because of the item that caught her attention.]

Hi Sunn…is that my locket? Where did you find it!
