“Of course, Lukey,” she smiled, playing along. “Anything for you. I’ll sign something for you after this appointment.” She’d actually do it too. It’d be good practice for when she actually has to sign them ALL the time. Being a famous Quidditch STAR and ACTRESS would mean having to sign autographs for plebeians ALL the time. If she didn’t get enough practice, her hands would cramp!! Y’know?

Anyways, that’d have to wait for after class because unfortunately they had to swap roles now.

When she said patch of grass, she really meant for him to try the spell… Buuuuuuut, this worked too. “Oh no! Not YOUR KNEE,” she gasped, dropping down to the ground, putting a hand on his shoulder and assessing the situation. “Lukey, it’s gonna be alright! I know how to fix this!!”

RICE.

“It’s all a part of the process, Professor!” Zoryn called back to Coach B, who clearly didn’t appreciate their dramatics as much as he should have. Not everyone appreciated talent it seemed.

Was Professor Noble SEEING this? They were FANTASTIC! “Okay, this might hurt just a bit, but you’ve gotta stay strong, okay?” Technically icing came first, but she had already done the spell once so was there really a need to do it again? Probably not. So instead, she began wrapping up his knee, pretty nicely if she did say so herself.

Before she could say anything about it, however, Professor Nobel happened. Zoryn gave Lucas an apologetic look because really, he did do a nice job. The bow added PIZZAZ.

…. FIVE POINTS???

-_________________-

“He’s such a jerk,” she rolled her eyes as he walked away and whispered when she thought he was out of earshot. “Congratulations, though Lukey! Losing points is the official Gryffindor initiation. You’re officially part of the COOL kids club!!!” SHE BEAMED AT HIM. It wasn’t entirely accurate, but she didn’t want him to feel all bad about it. He seemed like the type. And Zoryn quite liked him. Plus, Professor Noble was stupid. Lucas was just trying to get ahead of the curve here, practicing what he’d have to do in real life. As far as Zoryn was concerned, he ought to receive 5 points.

Once they were told to remove the bandages, Zoryn helped Lucas with his before working at her own.

Lucas didn't really know if she was ACTUALLY going to sign something for him but the promise was still nice and he liked it ~~and did want one secretly inside~~. So he gave her a smile, as if to say thank you. And there was an even bigger smile when she played along with his broken knee and said she was going to fix it. He didn't really know a lot about her - except that she knew this Alice Odessa person - but he was SURE that she would do a much better job on his knee than he had done on her arm.

A little less acting and a little more healing? WELL. He had to agree with Zoryn here, which was why he was nodding a lot when she spoke. They were still doing the task, right? They weren't doing anything BAD. Look, Zoryn was even putting a bandage around his knee and it looked MUCH better already. "You're a natural at this!" And yes, he could be strong. Not as strong as some of the older kids he bet but he was still stro-

........

.................

Oh. Uh........

Lucas blinked a couple of times when Noble started talking. He'd...... done it wrong? Biting his lip, he looked down at the bandage on Zoryn's arm. It didn't LOOK wrong. It was still covering her fake wound, wasn't it? And Zoryn is a gift, he was very sure about it. He didn't have any proof but he knew and that had to be enough.

And then things took a turn for the worse when he..... got points taken off? He looked down at the grass as an uncomfortable feeling started to settle in and he tried hard not to squirm where he sat. There was....... no way he could save himself from that one. And worst of all, it was done in front of Zoryn, who was probably going to think he was dumb for not listening to instructions properly and and......

........ this was an initiation?

He looked up at her and gave her a small smile. She was trying and he could tell because this sounded like something you'd say to a little kid when you're trying not to make them cry. And he wasn't going to cry. He was STRONG, remember? "Thanks, Zoryn! Guess that makes me one of the cool kids who ties bows on bandages and you're a cool gift." He could...... make a joke about this, right? Make it easier to swallow.

When she had taken off his bandages, Lucas got up to his feet again. "Thanks! And, uh, sorry. For.... you know, the points." And everything. "Thanks for being my partner. You're the coolest." He gave her a smile before going back to his cauldron to work on the next part. He...... kind of wanted to keep acting with Zoryn but they were moving on with the lesson so he'd have to as well.

He sat down by his cauldron again and tried to pay attention to the instructions being given but..... there was a lot. Or maybe it felt that way right now. There was only one thing for it: split up the instructions. First, he had to add a cup of water, which was easy enough. He filled up the cup of water and poured it into the cauldron. Next, half a cup of arnica root which, uh, looked weird. And he didn't know if it was well-packed or not but it didn't look like it was loose (?) so he decided to trust it. That went into the cauldron as well.

Now. Seep for three minutes? Easy.

Lucas looked down at his watch and then sat back. Three minutes, this didn't sound so bad. He sat there, taking some deep breaths and trying not to think about anything that could upset him. But it was hard because the more he tried NOT to think about it, the more he ended up thinking about it. And before he knew it, he was staring off into space, lost in his own thoughts.....

........

Oh. Were the three minutes up?

Turns out that the answer was no.

He waited out the last few seconds before adding loose petals of three dandelions into the cauldron. These instructions were really specific, weren't they? LOOSE petals. THREE dandelions. What would happen if he only added two? Or two and a half? He didn't really want to ask Noble but he really wanted to know as well.
