SPOILER!!: That introduction would have done wonders actually!

Speechless in that regard. Lex understood. She'd been speechless only a minute ago when she thought her Head of House and the rest of the staff had lost their minds in entering her into something academic. Now things were explained and the young girl felt like she'd just eaten a dozen chocolate frogs. Were it not for the fact that they were currently discussing stuff she might have been bouncing about the terrace with ideas of what the challenges would be like.

bcvjhfdbvjdjgjsdg!!

It. Was. LIKELY!! There was this really good chance that at least one part of the challenge would have something man-eating and that just made it even more intriguing. Also, ahem, Professor Bentley just said it required higher skills and especially quick thinking. NOW she was swelling with pride, but only because they thought she could hold her own against a carnivorous plant. She WAS pretty good at staying alive. "I think I'll be able to handle it." She said with a definite nod. "I'm particularly good at not dying." GRIN.

Okay. This was where she needed to be at a normal level of hyper, otherwise everything the Professor said would go right over her head. So! Checking OWLs and NEWTs! She could do that! She'd start by asking Alice who did them last year....and she could ask Vivi too--whoa wait hold on. She wanted her going to the library with the turnstiles even though she didn't make a habit of reading? "I'll...uh...pass on the library unless I absolutely have no other choice." Reading. No.

"Are there rules against sabotage as well?" Just curious.

Quote: Hera;11447510]Why didn't she say that sooner? "Er... uhh... well..." she didn't know. Perhaps she should have opened with Hey Alexa, do you want to do something outrageous and potentially life threatening? and now that she thought about it, it really would have been easier than her subtle Oh hey, you've been entered into an academic competition. This was fail on her part, but she got there, they got there... in the end. But what with Lex looking and sounding all excited, Seren too was back in excited mode. There was nothing quite like competition to get her motivated, and this one in particular was very motivating. Could she start thinking about the plants and resources she'd buy back after the win now? And speaking of plants, of the carnivorous persuasion, "you know... it's likely. Carnivorous plants require higher order skills and you need to be especially quick thinking," in most cases, or you know... chomp! "They offer it's handlers an element of danger and pressure, which is seldom found in other flora. That being said, the task could simply be more technical with a time limit?.." which would also result in pressure. Different pressure, but pressure nonetheless. "A good place to start might be to look at the types of plants often found in OWL or NEWT practicals.. talk to some of the sixth and seventh years about what plants they faced in their examinations, talk to alumni too, if you're familiar with any." A world of knowledge right there. "And should you need to, the library should have records of past papers and notes on practicals." Should being the key word, though what Kitridge did in the library all day, she did not know. Speechless in that regard. Lex understood.
