Kurumi PROBABLY should have been frightened by the look the sphinx was giving her, but she was just so overwhelmed by it that she just looked back at the sphinx with googly eyes. "
Oh! I-I-I'm s-s-s-s-s-so s-s-s-s-s-s-sorry!" Kurumi squeaked bowing several times deeply from her sitting position. The sign on the professors door had mention that fact, hadn't he? Kurumi should probably go crawl under a bush somewhere and hide. "
What would you prefer I call you?" If anything that is.
Still, the Sphinx HAD given her another nugget of wisdom which she added to her parchment.

Lachlan flicked his wand toward the blackboard and erased what had previously been written on it.

Sphinxes love puzzles, riddles, and enigmas."
