He could be humane still. Yes.

Settling down in his seat, after giving both Stasya and Abey (though the latter was no longer looking his direction) appreciative looks, the sixth year'S primary focus was to get his particular venomous tentaculas completely immobile - otherwise there was no way on this green earth that he was going to be able to focus. So...facts about venomous tentaculas? He had his share since he was the product of two herbologists, the majority of which his classmates had already uttered, but for this round...Derf would be remaining silent and instead keep an eye on those potentially DEADLY spikes.

Adolescent or not, you know? Because really, it would be ignorance to underestimate adolescents.

Wand at the ready, Derf spent the entirety of this first question and answer period shooting of whispered 'Immobolus' at any vine that was coming his way. And, well, either the plant was adapting and learning that spells were being shot at it ... therefore DODGING his charm...or there was a very unfortunately timed movement of one of the remaining mobile vines.....because the jet of light went STRAIGHT through and towards one of his classmates.

"DUCK!"
Having responded and felt confident with his answer Mark continued to keep a close eye on the Plant ahead of him. Not confident yet with his spell work to either sever or freeze the plant he continued to keep a safe distance away from it's ensnaring vines.

Unfortunately his position was in a direct path with an incoming spell. Which he had not seen. What he did see was his Venomous Tenticula had reach. When he heard the shout for 'Duck!' he assumed it was for the Vine reaching for him So he ducked. And the Vine missed him very grateful for the heads-up. As he begun stand the spell made direct contact with him and he was stuck in this odd semi-squatting position.

But Why?! Who? Where?
