Copernicus was prepared to listen for a while, but one of the sunshine yellow girls caught his attention. He raised his hand to address her. "Muggles as they are now are now, with their current biases and beliefs about magic and those who wield it, are very dangerous to us and our way of life. But perhaps if we hadn't cut ourselves off so completely from Muggles, it never would have gotten this bad. I imagine that someone with far-reaching vision that marched to a different sort of drum altogether might have thought that rejoining the two worlds would bring more peace in the long run."

Copernicus honestly didn't know enough about the other houses to be a good judge of this opinion, but he added a quiet, "But surely I've met some Slytherins clever enough to be in the Ravenclaw house quite easily."
