She should really work on that. No one likes a sourpuss. "I will treasure it always." No hint of sarcasm in his voice either, just good-natured jesting. Haha. See?
Nem nodded along with the rest all the same, but didn't bother to write any of it down. Not only would he remember, but Rainwater was the type of professor that provided notes anyway. Also, was Ezra here? Was he listening to the part about the rabbits? Hopefully not, or Rainwater would have a derailed Ravenclaw on his hands for the rest of the lesson, and Nem wasn't helping to deal with that.
But crossbreeding then. Nem knew little - if anything - about the topic, given that he'd never had the slightest bit of interest in plants beyond what he needed for certain potions. Most of his Herbology knowledge came from previous lessons, and occasionally scanning the textbook in preparation for classes, but that didn't stop him providing an answer when his turn came. "I think in plants crossbreeding would involve pollen and the stamen and the stigma, just like when they usually reproduce. So when it's deliberate, it would involve some kind of artificial pollination, you know? But obviously you can't exactly do that with toadstools." |
