 Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - ❄ Lunar Library Lurker ❄ - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror
Ben nodded in confirmation, first once at the question of butterflies and then again when the question applied to the location of Bellaire's office. Hindsight was certainly 20/20 here when the Gryffindor put it all together in his head. Everyone else would likely have appreciated the friendly gesture...Bellaire was not one of them. Then the headmistress wasn't likely one either if he thought about it, but that was a mute point to think about.
Him...as a butterfly?
"I know..." he stated simply as he stuffed his hands into his pockets for lack of something else to do with them. The urge to play with his hands and nails was high as a distraction as he felt bad about his actions.
Benny stepped further back from the couch as Flamsteed mentioned returning Quigley back to normal. It wasn't as if he would himself be any use to the matter, both because of his wand-less stature and less experience. He watched and waited as his head of house went to work, the fifth year biting the inside of his cheek as they awaited the results. The reverse of what had happened before in the woman's office and eventually the toad was back being a man.
A man bear-hugging his fellow professor.
That was a relief. He just wished he could feel more pleased with the compliment directed his way. "Um...thanks," the Gryffindor managed, biting back a sigh at the reminder of his lack of wand.
