Oh! He didn't see Rachel there for a moment! "Hey Rachel, you're doing great...very good!" he complimented her, giving her a thumbs up. It was nice to see llia giving the first year a hand with the spells but he wasn't going to come in between their umm..whatever those two ill feelings towards each other. For now, he took a step back and began examining his box. He tried to pry open it but it didn't work. Another Alohamora spell would do the trick?

"Alohamora," Henric cast again, more easily this time. Immediately, the box unlocked by itself. Brilliant! Nicely done, Henric! Now to find out what was exactly inside it, he opened the lid to reveal a small parchment. There were something written on it too, could this be a code of somekind? Hmm...

He glanced back up again to see if anyone needed his help unlocking their glass cabinet. Henric saw Brady, across the room from him and wondered if that first year knew of the spell?...Wait. Pfft. Why did he care? The boy certainly wouldn't want his help anyway. He wasn't the only 'troubled' younger kid who hated his guts, y'know. Henric had nothing to lose, he rather helped someone who really wanted his help and he would do it graciously without asking nothing in return. Besides, that brat was doing well enough on his own. He noticed another first year(Ariadne) seemed to have trouble with the spell. Good thing prefect Thornton got to her. "Hi, do any of you need help with the spell?" to anyone really...
