Nina hadn’t made her mind up about Professor Fuller-Thomson. He had many admirable traits, like his no-nonsense approach to conversation or his rather direct teaching methods. But for every point in his favor, he also did weird things like munch on bean toast and gave false hope to hopeful students looking to transfer Houses. She also did not join his wellness club. Because the thought of “””exercising””” with her classmates was enough to make her want to convulse. She would much rather do yoga out on the quad by herself.
But charms was a useful subject. And as such, her opinion of the man would never affect her approach to the class itself. As she made her way inside the room, she kept her typical look of displeasure in place... Only to immediately begin grinning upon reading what was on the board. Only to AGAIN drop the smile and replace it with a neutral expression. Merlin forbid if anyone saw she was actually excited to LEARN.
She paused briefly to acknowledge her Professor with a look, before making her way to the middle of the room where she could hopefully blend in with the rest of the class and get away with staying silent during the Q&A portion. Though she only allowed herself to get excited about it in secret, this lesson would hopefully prove to be very useful. Gunnar had promised to teach her some protective spells too and she still planned on receiving personal lessons from him (cute boy, all to herself, duh), but every spell to keep Karlin away from her things was truly a huge help. Living with a professional pickpocket in your dormitory was an actual nightmare.
