In any case, he would be an inspiration to some other kid later on down the line.

Something like 'If Adair can do it, so can you'.

Maddox sighed heavily and pulled himself from his oh so comfy seat. Making an effort here, kid better not throw it back at him like he'd done his offer of something to drink. "That's just the point, Mister Adair. You passed." He made his way around the desk, wrapping an arm around his shoulder with a look to be likened with gonna make you a star one day, kid.

"But just imagine, an O for the next one. That's what we're working for here, d'you see it?" Encouragement, because none of his students were going to just pass, they were going to do brilliantly.

Maddox released his shoulder, choosing instead to jam his hands into his pocket and turn to his shelves of books for a moment. "I've been thinking about it and you know something?" His tone was reflective as he skimmed the titles. "You haven't only been holding on me but you've been holding out on yourself." Though he'd never say it, he expected great things from this kid. Know what he needed? That sword of Gryffindor.

It did WONDERS for the Neville boy.

Zander was confused. That was really the only way to put it. Though he was definitely starting to regret the fact that he hadn't chosen to take a seat, as his legs might give out any second here if they were to continue talking about his grades. It was the most uncomfortable subject, Zander was sure of it. He did, however, look up curiously when Professor Q started making his way towards the Sixth Year.

And then Zander Adair was really confused.

Just when he thought Professor Q couldn't hate him more, the man was giving him that 'We're gonna do great things' kind of look. Yeah, definitely confused (and more than normal, actually). It wasn't fair that Zander was terrible at reading people. He was sort of all out of guess too at this point. First Professor Q wanted him to get all squirmy and uncomfortable, and then he sounded disappointed in the fact that Zander got all squirmy and uncomfortable, and NOW he was giving him that kind of mighty look.

What was this world even?

He watched his Charms Professor, gaze unwavering. Okay, now he was curious. A lot less nervous, but only because it didn't seem like he was in trouble like he had first suspected. Things were taking a whole different turn here. And... to be honest, Zander wasn't even sure if he liked it or not. But he did like the idea of getting an O on his next exam. It didn't really seem possible and the amount of O's he was already able to manage seemed like a very far reach, but an O in charms... That'd be awesome. He couldn't even deny that. So Zander nodded, unsure of whether the question his Professor posed was a rhetorical one or not.. But he decided to answer anyways, 'cause that's what Zander's do. "Yes, sir," he DID see it. Well not actually see it, but in theory... It could be possible.

His eyes trailed along, watching his Professor turn around and face the bookshelf. Erm... No, he didn't know something... "...I have?"
