Medea paused momentarily to stand up straight. "You wouldn't automatically think of the tickling charm when someone asks you about dark spells would you? The reason why a certain group of spells are placed in the category of dark magic is because they persistently have a negative affect on the target. Persistent being the key word here." She stopped to let that sink in.

"Think about...every day objects you use. A chair. Toothpaste. A spoon. Maybe a pillow. They're all normal things we use for the greater good, for lack of better words, yet they aren't necessarily evil themselves, despite the fact that they could be used for such. Same goes for spells outside of the dark arts, which is whyyyy they are not considered so." Hopefully that became a little more clear. She did applaud where their thought process was going though. Thinking outside the box.

"Alright, you all can stand up." Up! Up up. "And...switch to the other side now." Moving to lift her other arm in the air, she touched her other ankle, waiting for the rest of the class to do so before continuing. Or you know, those few students who were jogging can continue doing so. "How about dark creatures? What makes them dark?"

One of those questions where they perhaps had to rephrase the answer they were thinking of.
Stand up? Is it activity time? Kat stood up immediately when Professor said they should all stretch those legs. What the firebolt?

What makes dark creatures dark? Cause they're dark creatures, their names are screaming it already, Kat thought to herself and managed to smirk a bit. "Most of the dark creatures are carnivorous, which means they eat meat or the such. They could even eat people." Kat said. "Maybe that's why they're called dark creatures..."

You know, like the Lethifold.
