So, never mind, it was starting to be more of a personal thing after all.
It was clear early on, the theme of this lesson, but Nem had somehow not expected that this Carton guy would try to teach Human Transfiguration to a class with such varied ages and abilities as this one. It didn't really matter, in the end; they decided long before Carton was done talking that they were not putting themselves in the path of a wand for something like this, in this environment. Nem trusted nobody with a spell like this, and had no plans of being stuck in the form of a ferret for life if it went wrong. The Big Man wouldn't be too impressed either.
The fact that Carton had gone out of his way to ask Grantham permission to cast on her, though... that might be beneficial - speaking of which, it would have been entertaining to grab Grantham as a partner and re-ferret her, but hey, what can you do.
As soon as the activity was started, Nem raised a hand. "Sir. I do not give my consent for anyone to cast a transfiguration spell on or at me." Just to be crystal clear on the matter. Cover all bases. Nem was on top of Transfiguration anyway. Ahead, even. "May I leave and study in the library instead." It was a request, but the total lack of inflection had it sounding more like a statement.
It just seemed unlikely that any part of the lesson would be of much use to them, if they were starting with this. |
