And where the hell had this new potions professor been at the time? Why was he allowing things like this to happen? And damn it. Why didn't Romulus come to her about this?
And here Cece thought with Lafay gone she wouldn't have to worry about people getting set on fire anymore. Apparently that wasn't the case though.
Oh Merlin!
The look on Tillstorm's face!
Rhodes was trying her hardest, her absolute hardest not to burst out laughing, but it really was just too funny. Did the Healer REALLY think she would light someone on fire? During class? And did she really think that, if Romulus was lit on fire, he wouldn't be sent to the Hospital Wing to get treated? Would she still have been allowed in Hogwarts if she was some crazy pyromaniac who lit people on FIRE!?
She didn't know the Headmistress, but from the few times she had seen her at the opening and closing feasts, it didn't seem like she was the type of person who would tolerate that kind of stuff.
"I didn't really light him on fire." A few small giggles escaped from her mouth, but she quickly clasped her hands over it to stop them. Not a good thing, laughing at a time like this.
"I mean.. well.. I kind of blew fire on him. But it didn't hurt him and the Professor was in the room while I did it. And it was part of the assignment!" She was so going to tell Romulus about this.
