slothyke Cal was horrified. Except maybe that wasn't strong enough a word. He didn't know of any word to properly describe just how truly truly horrible this all was. Instead, he just stood and stared at the Ravenclaw girl, wishing he could help her.
And now they all had to answer or Scary Headmaster would make things somehow even worse. Cal didn't want to witness any of that.
He listened to the other students who went before him, realising that some of them had far too detailed answers, clearly they had thought about these things before. WHY couldn't they let things stay as they were???
He took a shaky breath and stared down at his feet, not wanting to look the Scary Headmaster in the eye ever again. "We can....live in villages away from them...?" That sounded like an option where his granda would be safe and well and so would his uncles and cousins and and and- Breaaaathe. Cal took another shaky breath. It was okay, they couldn't actually hurt his granda. or could they?????
