Oops! Ira had forgotten for a moment that it was Hogwarts and not a muggle school! Of course no missiles would be fired! But surely there must be magic equivalent to it too, right? And anyway, did Professor understand what she had really wanted to say? That maybe curses, instead of weapons could be fired from her! Though she had no idea if the range of curses was far or not.

And when the professor asked the next question, for Ira the tower actually reminded of Rapunzel's fairy tale. Though it had no connection to the spinning wheel. And she was about to say that aloud, but thought better and stayed quiet.

But Lea had already mentioned another fairy tale, Sleeping Beauty, whose story had then been explained in brief by Kurumi. Hehe.. were they all actually discussing muggle fairy tales in Potions/HoM class? With professors like Scabior and Lafay around?

Ira just sort of snorted and giggled lightly at the thought.
