What reasons would we need this organization of creatures?”
Andrew furrowed his brow at the professor's barrage of questions, staying silent for a moment as he tried to make up his mind about which one he'd go for.
He'd almost gotten over the professor's green-ness.
Almost.
A silent moment's careful deliberation with him self later, he'd decided to take a gander at the last one.
Why would we need to organize critters this way? Raising his hand, he presented his answer to the professor.
"Surely when deciding who gets to vote on magical laws and such, a classification system like this would be invaluable." He began, shrugging his shoulders slightly.
"We can't exactly have grindylows- He paused, pondering the correct pluralization of the word 'grindylow'.
Grindylowe? Grindylli? - Anyway: "We can't exactly have grindylows and Cornish pixies voting for health-care reform, can we?" He smiled and sat back, rather pleased with his answer.
Then again, it wasn't himself he had to impress.
