 He's been here the whole time! ;) Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ ❄ Showtunes > Everything ❄ ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll
Heath was here at the appointed time, though the only indication he gave of his presence was a slight nod toward the headmaster. As neither of them were fond of unnecessary chatter, he saw no point in offering a verbal greeting. He didn’t dare look around at the other students. Seeing all these people here, most of whom wrongly sentenced, would only send his anger flaring for the hundredth time since that lesson, and he would not give Trent the satisfaction of seeing it! Bullies were all the same, no matter their age; they would use any sign of emotion against their victims.
The Ravenclaw’s expression remained stoic as the headmaster spoke. For the record, he did not trust him with his wand! Trent had shown his true colors in that lesson, and now Heath wouldn’t put anything past him. What did he plan to do with their wands? Snap them all in half? Put a flagrate curse on them? Keep them locked in that box and force them to go without their wands for the rest of the term? Despite his suspicions, he trusted the man even less without his wand! That makes two of us, he thought to himself as he deposited his wand in the box. Whatever was in store for him, he just wanted to get it done so he could get on with his life!
Heath followed the others through the door, half-expecting to find a monster on the other side for them to fight. Instead he was met with some disgusting-smelling… substance. Mud? Slime? Did he even want to know? Whatever the mystery muck was, he waded into it without so much as a sound of reaction, not even a gag. He held his hands out of the sludge but didn't bother trying to plug his nose. He had a strong suspicion that he would need his hands for something else soon. If this was anything like their lesson, there was bound to be a cruel twist in here somewhere!
