"I'll have to take a point from Hufflepuff for rudeness."
With another breath and a rub of his neck, Sage turned to Ellie. "When one is put under stress and grows anxious, there is activity in our sweat glands," he explained, "electrodermal activity is when this is picked up by tiny electrical properties in our skin. Mix that with the magical properties of the Fluffletuff Bloom and you have a natural lie detector."
He was starting to feel a little stressed with some of these kids.. the electrical properties in his skin must've been going crazy.
You're welcome (sarcasm).........what a way to repay respect and one fighting to defend another's honor. But that was fine, Nymphy would no longer put up any fuss to the Ravenclaws rudess. He felt like telling the other kid to do his best on the Professor......but didn't. Wow.......ya, thats right......HE's the bad guy, as if.
"I'm terribly sorry, Professor. It won't (you got that right) happen again...." he said, somewhat agast at what the professor had done to HIM (the man who had defended the Professor)!
