Reluctantly, though, because obviously he had not forgotten what had happened earlier in the class, and he'd been avoiding looking at the man since then. Also... what the heck had happened to the classroom?

Wait... why was everyone all... hairy. Toby blinked around at his classmates, supremely confused, before checking his hands and feeling at his own face. No hair there. Uhh...

But soon it all became clear, and as Airey made his explanation, Toby's eyes got wider. He staaaaaaaared at the astronomer in disbelief as the details of the task before them became clear.

Oh no. Ohhhhh nooooooo. Toby was worried. Had he not just accidentally set FIRE to something? He didn't want to risk doing that to another STUDENT. Didn't want to cast at another student at all, really. And as for the werewolf part... he wasn't sure he liked the sound of adding extra aggression to the cacophony of emotions he was already feeling, but it looked like he didn't really have a say in the matter.

"I don't want to play this game," he whispered, mostly to himself.

Or maybe Toby did have a say. He'd not eaten the cookies. He was fine. A thought occurred to him that if he could just... leave, just get out of here... he'd not have to cast at anyone OR be an aggressive werewolf. THEN he wouldn't risk hurting anyone. It was sort of worth Airey being more angry with him for stepping outside the door to wait out the activity if it meant Toby didn't have to worry about accidentally hurting someone.

It was harder to see in the room now, but he remembered roughly where the door was. Toby threw his wand down with the rest of his things but clutched tight onto the drawstring bag in case he might be able to turn kids back by simply throwing candy at them and it went in their mouths. He didn't currently trust himself with magic. Turning on his heel, he ran straight towards where he thought the door was, leaving his smoldering dummy behind.
GRRRRRRR.

Stalking the classroom, Lux's eyes landed on Toby as he tossed his wand. Well, that was silly: now he couldn't cast the spell on her. What was he going to do? Jam pop rocks down her mouth?

Smiling, she moved closer. Maybe he would like being a werewolf. It wasn't so bad once you got used to the excessive hair and growling.

As he ran, Lux chased after him, swiping away and hoping that she would make a direct hit.
