The fact Agatha and the Gryffindor prefect had gotten lectured for him doing the work for the older girl hadn’t slipped past Brooklyn’s notice, just as the rat on the loose hadn’t. The only thing she was ignoring at the moment was the small pile of pumpkin goop still on the corner of her desk, as she flipped through her textbook to look for more information on Leo. She knew better than to completely make up her information anyhow, no matter her reasoning behind choosing the constellation. That might end up being mentioned, but she wasn’t going to have the professor think she was stupid. She was far from stupid, which was why she was a Slytherin. She knew that. Everyone else should know that too.

Pulling her wand out again, she turned her pumpkin this way and that until she found a good spot to carve. She remembered her daddy doing that, anyway, and once she’d settled on a side, she knelt on her seat and pointed her wand at a spot. She’d already decided she was only going to carve the stars, because everyone knew if you carved a shape out, it would fall out of the pumpkin and that wouldn’t look very constellation-like. She didn’t want a big gaping hole in her pumpkin, just a pretty little lion constellation. Therefore, as she said “Punktumus” again, she just used her wand to poke a good-sized hole. Eight more holes later, and her constellations were done. Sort of. Digging around in her bag, she found a green marker and used it to connect the dots. Just in case anyone was going to say they couldn’t tell which constellation she’d made. Now it was done, aside from the written part.
