Lewis immediately lowered his gaze when Professor Scabior Evil!Dashi repeated his answer, clearly making fun of him. How was he supposed to know? Plus, he thought he deserved a little approval that he had at least known where the Slytherin Common Room was. Not daring to answer another one of the questions the History of Magic professor posed, Lewis just scribbled down notes, keeping his head low, not looking at anybody. This just had to be the worst lesson ever!
Only raising his head again - the blush which had formed on his cheeks was slowly residing - when he heard a couple of surprised yelps and shrieks. Was that...?! OMG! Lewis just stared at the enormous squid which had just emerged from the lake, not quite sure if he should be scared or intrigued by it. Seeing it wave at them - or something close to that anyway - he decided to go with the latter, and waved back, even managing to produce a small smile for the creature.
And then the other professor continued with the lesson and Lewis decided that maybe he wasn't that bad after all. He knew how to deal with creatures after all. And he didn't seem to be as mean as Professor Scabior. Listening to other people's answers, he didn't want to say the same thing that had been said already so instead he raised his hand and said, "Leeches, maybe, professor?" He had said to list magical AND mundane creatures after all, right?
Throwing the Giant Squid another quick smile, he waited for further instructions. Why had it actually joined them for this lesson?! |
