Ariadne just sat there, looking no brighter than a bump on a log, as the professor talked to them about who knew what. What. In the world. Had she. Just said?! Ariadne honestly had no clue. Something about a fox and a spirit. She sat there for a few minutes piecing everything together and still felt no smarter than she had sixty seconds ago.

She was NOT going to do well in Transfiguration, was she?

"Professor?" she asked, raising her hand. "Can the spirit of the kitsune be neither an animal nor a human? It just seems to me like something that keeps changing shape based on what it wants from people." Or...something like that. Ariadne had no idea if she was even answering the right question. She really needed to brush up on her Transfiguration before the next lesson. "Then again...it just sounds like a legend or something, like a type of magic we probably have some law against."
