Eyes blinking owlishly, Ivory took a pause from note taking and smiled at last.
She'd been in such awe when the class had started that she'd been taking notes ever since, even going as far as describing the Sphinx in great detail and trying to sketch her. Listening attentively, she also jotted down the riddles.
This was by far, a great class. All at once the Ravenclaw prefect had found she had a great respect for their new professor. Not only was he on good terms with a Sphinx but what he had to go through to get permission to get her here was most likely very impressive. And of course, her respect extended to the magnificent creature at his side.
Putting her quill down as she realized she'd taken enough notes, the Ravenclaw prefect raised a slim hand in participation her mind whirling when someone replied a riddle. Gosh, that had been her first thought. Following her train of thought, she gave it a go since her hand was already up.
"A surprise?" she mused aloud. Clearing her throat for a second, she continued with a hesitant smile. "Because when something is considered a surprise then it surprises us, however once it is known it's no longer a surprise."
