Transfiguration was sciency too, but he hadn't found a logical scientific explaination for it and 'magic' was not a good enough explaination. Magic had limits. Why? These were very important questions that needed addressing.

Carrot stick sticking out of his mouth, he turned the corner only to find a small-looking person rambling to herself and walking in his direction. Eyes adjusting slowly to the light - was it going to rain? Because the clouds looked pretty gloomy today - he realised it was the girl from Sugarplum's. The one who lost her mother. Did she lose something else too? "Are you okay?" he asked, a little redundantly. Of course she wasn't okay, she was rambling to herself. That was almost never a good sign.
