Wonderful. A Flamsteed clone.

Nem looked down at him, and then at the other who had started off in some other direction, and back to the first again. They nodded once, and spoke in as bland a tone as the one they'd greeted the professor with. "Thanks. I'll remember that."

Schmoe seemed like he'd survive.

Well.

Anyway.

No negative reactions here. Nem set eyes back on Schmoe again and waited for things to get started. The sooner the lesson was underway, the sooner it would be over, and Nem could get back to... whatever.

How fitting that things were being kicked off with this weakness question. It was almost worth an answer, but Nem's mind was pretty saturated with the weaknesses of those around them these days, specifically the Hogwarts faithful. With a little effort, they could push past that, to the very obvious fact that muggles were physically vulnerable. Any physical defence a muggle relied on, magic could overcome it. The same could also be said for most magical problems or defences - Nem had no doubt that if a spell existed, so did its counter, as long as you were committed to finding it - but muggles were especially pathetic in that sense.

There had been a time, years and years ago, when they had believed wizards and witches were naturally more intelligent than muggles too, but that theory had not taken long to unravel. Every day they were reminded how foolish they had been as a child, assuming something like that.

Nem didn't look around at that little outburst, nor the response, didn't even blink. They gave no answer to the initial question, either, but kept their gaze riveted to Schmoe.
