There are enough for each of you to have your own, so you will be working individually. You are free to chat and help each other if necessary." She paused before moving on to the rest of the instructions. "Fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh years... you will be working in pairs on piranha plants. Though they look scary, they're sedated so you'll be fine," she said patting the head of one affectionately. Yes, they looked scary, but they really were darlings, and they only reached waist height. "At your work stations you will find the implements necessary to carry out the activity."
"Are there any further questions?"
At your workstations you will find the following items: Fanged Geranium Stations toothbrush minty flossing twine Piranha Plant Stations bigger toothbrush minty flossing twine Stella really didn't care if the plants were sedated. She just did not want to brush and floss flesh-eating plant teeth, no matter how much it would be a distraction from her non-class-related thoughts. Honestly, she'd rather go back to fighting against pixies, back to keeping Vickers from being strangled by a snargaluff after retrieving a pod from the plant. She'd rather do literally anything other than get anywhere near the teeth of, well, it appeared a piranha plant. She widened her eyes even as Professor Bentley actually petted one, like it was her sister's dog. There are just so many things wrong with this, she thought, glancing onc e at the workstation nearest to her before turning her brown eyes to the others around her. Apparently the younger students weren't having issues dealing with brushing the teeth of fanged geraniums. She didn't blame them. Those were actually kind of cute, or at least they didn't look like they could tear her arm off if so inclined. Quote:

"Anyone need a partner?" he asked hopefully. But she needed to pair up, get this cleaning over with. She was determined enough to actually go through with it, no matter how much she would rather not. Just because seh no longer had her unofficial house points competitor/boyfriend at the school didn't mean she wanted to let points slip through her fingers. Plus, there was the matter of making up for that little firstie who had lost them points at the beginning of the lesson. She was about to speak up to say she needed a partner, and then heard a voice come from nearby. A voice that it seemed was almost lost in the noise of younger students starting to work, and other upperclassmen calling out that they needed partners, or pairing up.
Seeing the Slytherin standing alone, she walked over. He looked about as comfortable with the assignment as she did, so she put what she hoped was a reassuring smile onher face before speaking. "I'll work with you if you like," she said. Hopefully she didn't sound as nervous as she felt, although she couldn't help but turn another wide-eyed look toward the nearest piranha plant. She half expected it to say 'Feed me.' Thankfully, it didn't. It just sort of sat there, so she returned her attention to, hopefully, her partner.
