A house-elf delivers a fruit basket to Jezz Jaelre, with a small note:

It worked. I won't say we're in your debt, as your assistance was a Sorting bribe; but I do want you to know we're profoundly grateful.

I hope you've been settling in well at Hogwarts. If there's ever anything in which we can be of some small help, do let us know.

All best wishes,
Camilla Winter


Of course, Camilla has no idea at all of Jezz's recent encounter with another fruit basket.

Nor did she have any idea of his recent encounter with a different variety of involuntary polymorph, which made Jezz wince with some degree of empathy as he recalled just what would have worked (and most would agree that turning into a small animal was worse than "merely" gaining a female body). Though, of course, he didn't reject the gift. As for help, he could last quite a bit longer wearing loose clothing and speaking as little as possible before he would consider voluntarily revealing his condition.

So Jezz set about investigating the tropical fruits, and the house elf was sent back with an even smaller note:

My pleasure. I will be sure to keep that in mind.
