Gryffindor for life Notorious Niffler Emmeline beamed when Professor Marchand said he would teach her the summoning charm later. That spell would come in quite handy if her cruppy tried to escape the nursery and she couldn't catch him in time.
Back to Charms. Lots of information appeared on the board, and Emmeline raced to write it all down in her notes. She was scared that it would vanish again before she got all of it, but fortunately the professor was asking another question.
The obvious answer in Emmeline's mind was because cooking the slow way is hard. That wasn't likely to impress Professor Marchand, though. The first year wasn't sure why someone wouldn't cook with magic, so this question was doubly confusing. Raising her hand, she said quietly: "Because magicked food tastes better? It can't go bad, can it?" Would the magicked apples rot? Regardless, that was still a lame answer in Emmeline's opinion, so if the professor ignored her answer, she wouldn't be disappointed. Why was it that all the lessons she wanted to do well in she could never impress the professors? |
