Aboli nearly jumped out of her seat as his appearance. AND his loud voice. Her hand over her heart, she took a few settling breaths as she listened to his speak.

Honestly, this behavior shouldn't have surprised her, and she found herself grinning at the sheer hilarity of it. He had been here the WHOLE time and had heard EVERYTHING. Which means - she needed to ask him! So she raised her hand as soon as he finished going on about toadstools. "Professor, as I was saying to....Kitt before you....appeared, I thought Toad-stools looked more mushroom-y. But I've never seen one in person in before. Do they get more...toad-like the older they get?" She was no Herbology expert.

She also didn't know that thing about them in fairy tales...that was a cool fact. Where was her notebook? She was scrambling to get it out. Scribble scribble...neatly...organized...color coded. All that jazz.
