Amanda smiled and thanked Sheryll, assuring her that the lack of Mr. Rickman
didn't matter in the slightest. Sheryll, relieved, bowed out of the room.

Amanda waited until she was sure she was alone, then pulled a small package
marked "Happy Birthday, Love J.S." from beneath the table drapes. She opened
it carefully, smiling in anticipation, and then sat back with a satisfied
grin. She tipped the box onto its side.

A tiny figure in black robes walked out of the box, crossed its arms, and
sneered up at her, tossing its greasy black hair out of its eyes. Amanda
leaned closer; yes, the resemblance was uncanny. She watched happily as the
little Snape began to stir and gesture over an abandoned punch glass. A
pity, she thought, that they didn't come equipped with sound, but then, how
could they get that voice into such a small package?

I'll have to get one of these for Sheryll, she thought. Must ask Jo where
she found it, and how many Galleons it was. How cool.

Amanda picked the little figure up, tucked him in her pocket, and, smiling
happily, headed for home.
