Professor Hirsch. New competition in the tale of Rooney's love life. Raising a hand, Rooney asked the question that he always wanted to ask if someone introduced themselves with a first name. "Can we call you Roderik?" Or Roddy? Rikky? Roo just wanted to know what sort of connection level there was between this new teacher and his pupils. How far he would be willing to go to maintain a relationship with them without overstepping any boundaries.

As soon as his hand landed back in his lap, Roo was subject to a large sigh and rolled his eyes. Dueling. The worst time of his life, and it was going to be running once more.. He made a note of that in his notebook and put a line of question marks beside it. It was going to take a lot to convince him to go back into that, and he was actually pretty sure that he would need to speak to Professor Roderik to organise his thoughts regarding the situation. Part of the Ravenclaw wanted to do it, to prove to himself that he wasn't incapable of the ultimate combination of magic. The other part of him didn't want to be shown up by someone like Blaise Bellaire once more. Because that had been a joke. Up went his hand once more. "Professor, may I speak to you about that after class?"

P l e a s e ?

Moving ON, like Professor Roderik (or maybe even Roderik) said, Rooney considered every option he had to answer this answer, pausing his thoughts only to listen to those coming from his peers. Good ideas, they had. Good, but nothing solid...until... AHA! Perfect.

"I would play dead, Sir." Trixie said, with her hand in the air.

As brave as she would like to be, she wasn't totally stupid. She knew that she wouldn't win against someone who was bigger than her no matter what was on hand.
THIS. This was his answer!

But...there were ways he would adapt it. He wouldn't just play dead. He probably wouldn't have gotten himself into the situation in the first place, but if the things arose... he'd just play dead obviously. Or use his talent to it's optimum. "I'd pretend to be law enforcement and then get away when I saw the chance. OR.. Or I'd do what she said. Pretending to be dead. I'm good at that. I can even hold my breath for over two minutes." Two minutes was the minimum. He could do it for longer, but no one wanted to BRAG.

Unless it was to Blaise Bellaire. Who really had made a fool of himself by believing that whole...buzzing noise.
