Shaking her head, she listened to what the students had to say about thw two things in question.

Rising slowing but still maintaining her hands in a resting position on the desk, she nodded at the students who answered about owls and telephones both having to do with messages and communication. Clearly these students had some contact with the muggle world, which was good, she supposed.

"Yes, communication. Messages. All very important to both the owl and, as someone mentioned this device called, the telephone," she said, hoping Jeremy wouldn't mind her intercepting.

Uh ...

"Miss Shepard, I've seen a lot of stuff in my years, but I have never seen a telephone fly."

That was interesting and clearly evident that Destiny was one who did NOT know much about the muggle world. Smart girl no doubt about it, but just muggle studies were not in her favor.

SPOILER!!: they're annoying... the objects, not the students! ;P

Oh that's a unique point, which was actually probably true and one that Josephina hadn't thought of before. "They can be annoying, especially when dealing with owl droppings ... or busy signals on the telephone."

Josephina looked to the next girl to speak, a young third year Slytherin of whom Fina had definitely seen around once or twice. Interesting similes though that the girl made. The telephone is the muggle version of the owl. "Well muggles don't use telephones for transportation, if that's what you were asking...." she smiled comfortingly at the snake. "But you're right about one thing, it is a substitute for the owl. It's used, as some of your peers said, to communicate."

Good versus evil? Uh ... Fina stared at the next slytherin, bewildered by his sudden -- and outlandish -- statements. She didn't get it. Giving a confused look quickly to Jeremy, she hoped maybe he understood, but then simply shrugged it off. "That all sounds nice .... nicely fictional to me. But thank you." For what, she had no idea.

Looking again over at her colleague, who was remaining awfully quiet, she decided to pick up the lesson a little, as the owl was flying around the room. They'd have to catch it later . . . or get Maya to come help. "So we know the owl is used in the wizarding world for communication purposes, and the telephone for muggles. As this is not a Magical Creatures lesson, we'll be discussing the latter. If you look carefully at the phone, you'll notice that there are numbers on it. Does anyone know how these numbers work?" At least one of these students had to have some connection to muggles, right?

"Well,every house has its own combination of number,Professor",Fee started to explain,"you have to push the numbers in the right order and you will get connected with the person you want."

At least that was what Fee thought. As a pureblood she had nothing to do with muggle devices....
