Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry: Daily Prompt Inspiration Thread - Prompt - (dialogue) "What do you mean this is not how I use this?"
Lily didn't laugh, no matter how big of an urge there was to let loose a loud guffaw. "Um, that's not the way to use that," Lily spoke up a bit timidly.
Barty Crouch Senior was famous for his temper when it came to being told he was wrong about something, and she didn't want his ire aimed at her.
Thankfully, he just looked confused. "What do you mean this is not how I use this? Someone told me a microwave cooks food fast."
Lily nodded. "That person was right, but you can't cook anything while it's wrapped up in tinfoil."
He blinked.
She elaborated. "That shiny metal that is currently around the food is called tinfoil. If you put that stuff in the microwave, there most likely will be an explosion.
Barty's shoulders slumped. "Oh. I guess I must look pretty foolish to you, huh?"
Lily smiled. "I actually think it's nice that a Pure-blood is trying to use a Muggle items. Most Pure-bloods would never even considering touching such a foreign item. Even the more curious Pure-bloods won't try to use something they don't understand. I'm impressed.
Barty blushed. "Thanks. You won't tell anyone that I almost messed up, will you?"
Her smile brightened. "It will be our little secret."
