"I meant killing as in killing. You figure out what I meant." Scabior said dryly. Really, REALLY? Did he have to explain that? He wasn't going to.

She sunk just a bit lower in her seat when people began focusing on the wand being the tool for them to be able to kill someone. She wasn't convinced that that was the case. You needed something more to be able to perform the spell. "I see everyone's point about a wand being a tool," Kurumi said softly with her hand raised in the air. "But...I think our ability to feel is perhaps a larger tool." She paused. This was going to get awkward really fast. "There is a story in Japan about groups of students our age that are taken to an island by the government and told that they now have to kill off their classmates. They were each given a bag with some sort of weapon - some had fans or frying pans - and were told they had three days to be the last remaining student. Only one was allowed to survive or else the collars they wore around their necks would explode and kill them all. They killed best friends, girlfriends, boyfriends, their own classmates...all because they feared dying themselves. You may have a wand in your hand, but unless you feel and put the emotions behind it, you won't be able to perform the spell at all..."

Merlin...was this man going to make up a Battle Royale-esque situation?

The thing about Kurumi was that...she spoke to much. Scabior resisted rolling his eyes as she went on about some story. Really, it was interesting...or..more so depressing. But he did NOT need to know all that. "Listen, Miss Hollingberry. Sometimes quality is better than quantity" And he would leave it at all.

-----------------

"Now, all of you who recognized the wand as the equipment, a pat on the back for you. And to those of you, who said something about our minds, emotions, inner workings, consciences so on and so forth, pats for you too. And for those of you who said both? Well you are geniuses in the making then aren't you?" He had only asked because he wanted to hear what everyone thought. But he wasn't going to correct them all just yet.

"As wizards-or witches, our wands and our minds are our best pieces of equipment- or weapons that we have. Today however we are going to be focusing on the wand and the making of the wand." He looked around the classroom. Still paying attention? "I don't want you lot to forget about our minds though. We will focus on that as well as other things" like the killing curse "in the next class."

"Because of your wands, you are all technically able to use the killing curse. Or any other curses or any other charms or spells. Not saying that you can produce every single spell at the moment, or that you can even issue a killing curse. But you are all technically able to." And now he was done talking about the killing curse. Really...it had just been a lead to his major point and some students looked like they were ready to make a run for it. "What do you lot know about wands?"
