"Correct! One point for you."

Now he wished he had actually remembered them, especially since this had happened frequently this past summer.

"Precisely, thank you," he smiled. "A point for you."

"How about the mambo, sir?" She asked giving her shoulders a playful shake as the boy-girl of a witch spoke, thinking of the way her cousin danced it with his girlfriend.

"Oui! A point to you."

Chad started to wander about the room, nudging students (and the occasional prof) here and there to make sure that they were still paying attention and awake. He gave a harder nudge to Treyen Lockhart. Talking during class? Tsk tsk.

"The last remaining dances are the salsa and the sloooow foxtrot. Now, who can tell me about the waltz? A little background info, yeah?"
