If he just didn't look at the plants, maybe they would go away?

Putting on his dragonhide gloves VERY slowly so he wouldn't have to look at the plants, Lewis bit his lip and heaved a sigh once he was done with that. Okay, now there was just no way around it. He had to turn around and-

...

Yeah. They looked just as scary as their name suggested. And probably were too. Oh no. The only comfort was that they were supposed to work in pairs. So maybe if he just found a partner who would do the actual 'touching-the-plant' part he might be fine. Glancing around the room for somebody available, Lewis spotted the girl whose cat had licked his shoes on the train. That new Ravenclaw Prefect. Louisa. And she was staring at the plants.

In awe, hopefully.

Quickly walking over to her - she had seemed nice enough on the train - Lewis tried to swallow any hint of nervousness and poked her arm softly. "Louisa? Do you...do you still need a partner?" Yes? Please? And hopefully she was like an expert in Herbology too.


Louisa jumped when someone touched her and spoke. VERY NEAR. Or well, nearer than she liked in this kind of place with scary plants scattered around them. Blinking and sighing in relief for the poker was actually a human being with a name close to hers Louisa nodded. "Y-yeah. I kind of.. do." She hazard another look at the plant. "Do you think this can chop off our fingers even if they're sedated?" Because Bentley said they were sedated. Louisa just couldn't grasp the idea of getting near such a thing even if they were dead.

"Not that we have a choice though.." she shot a sharp look in Bentley's direction before looking back at Lewis. "If I get an unwanted haircut, professor green here is getting a bald head too." And now he was Louisa's partner in crime whether he wanted it or not. Yes, she was serious. Her long wavy hair was very precious and Adam would most definitely prefer her with it this way rather than chopped off by a wild plant.

The Ravenclaw grabbed Lewis' arms and started pushing him toward the plant, half-hiding by his side. He was the boy. He should be chivalrous enough to take the first bite. "C'mon, let's do this," she whispered as she continued to push the boy ahead.
