She didn't like him feeling that way, he was one of them now and there wasn't exactly a lot he could do about it. And she was resisting the urge to say something to him. Trix sighed as she turned back to the front, waiting for Jeremy's answer to his question.

But it wasn't long until she heard laughing beside her. WHAT? Her question was perfectly normal wasn't it? He asked whether there were any questions, and well Trix DID have one, that one. She faked a glare at the snort before looking totally innocently at Freddie. "Well you weren't going to explain it to me, I decided it would be the best time to ask" she whispered back, focusing her attention on everyone else so it didn't look like she was chatting. "Why you still planning on taking me?" she flickered her eyes to him with a smirk.

Freddie was talking more than she expected, but that was kinda expected, it was probably the perfect lesson for him. But his question, and comment, was kinda unexpected. Evolution? So was he saying that Muggles were better than they were. Her attention was drawn to the fact he was glancing at her. She looked back, a kinda confused frown on her face. What WAS that supposed to mean? "So Muggles are better now are they?" she mumbled under her breath, loud enough for people to hear however. If he was saying they didn't NEED the magical ability, it would appear that way.
Freddie was so aware of Trixie looking at him and if he knew her at all, she had her lip between her teeth and was looking worried. He deliberately didn't look at her, mainly for his own benefit than hers. How did you reassure someone that you didn't need reassurance? He was actually finding the lesson interesting so far.

It wasn't like the straight faced Freddie to laugh, but Trixie's question had been so unexpected.. and had become almost something of an inside joke to Freds. He did glance at her this time to find her glaring at him. He shrugged, smirking a little. “Zookara seems more articulate than me. He'll be able to explain it a lot better than I can.” He replied, leaning towards her to whisper. His eyes glinted and he nodded once in response to her question. “If you'll let me.”

Hearing the accusation from beside him over his comments to the professor, he frowned at the Head Girl. He had NOT said that. “No.” He said simply, his jaw clenching as it became apparent she wanted everyone around them to hear. “All I'm saying is magic is no longer a necessity to our survival. We've found other means to the same result. We evolved to live on land: we lost our gills.. we've lost our tails because they became pointless to our needs.” He shrugged. “Why keep something that is no longer surplus to requirements.” Yeah.. it was controversial and it was JUST theory, but it was possible.. right? Freddie really didn't believe he was better than anyone here – surely Trixie of all people knew that.

Then the boy's next question got him thinking "Professor, to follow-up on Freddie's question there... do you think us Wizards are actually the next step in human evolution?...."because he really doesnt want to think nature has slated him for extinction ".... you know the same way as cavemen eventually died out to be replaced by modern humans?"
He smoothed out the frown on his face and looked away from Trix and over at the younger boy who had been involved in the conversation about 'cooties'. His idea was also possible. He nodded at the kid and focused back on the professor. Yeah.. this was definitely interesting.
