"Ahem!" Hagrid seemed to realize something and coughed twice, looking a little awkward. "Anyway, that's how it is. She agreed to Headmaster Dumbledore's request and will go with me to look for the giants."
"How should I put it? If we're the ones meeting the giants and persuading them not to help either side, there's no doubt we'll have more of an advantage..."
An unconscious smile appeared on his face. "Olympe understands that completely too. I have to say, she really is considerate!"
"Actually, something unpleasant happened between us before..." He scratched his head. "It, uh... made things a bit stiff between us."
Vizet and Luna spoke at the same time. "Made things a bit stiff?"
Luna winked at Vizet, and Vizet picked up the cue. "Hagrid, what happened between you and Madame Maxime before?"
"Er... it was around the Christmas Ball..." Hagrid's tone grew awkward. "We danced for a while, then ran outside to look at the fairies."
"To be honest... I always used to think fairies weren't that pretty. It was only then that I realized this kind of magical creature seemed quite interesting too."
"Oh! Right... Olympe and I talked a bit about our childhoods," he continued. "It was really just some trivial things. I thought Olympe's experiences should have been similar to mine..."
"My father was a wizard..." His tone was very natural, as if he had unconsciously sunk into his memories. "He was the one who took care of me when I was little. Actually, that was normal..."
"Giants usually don't have much of a motherly instinct. She left before I was three, and I don't know where she went... Maybe she's already dead? After I enrolled, my father passed away too..."
"Hagrid, we're sorry!" Vizet and Luna said together. "We brought up something painful."
