Aurora nodded, "Wonderful. That means I'll have more room to take Honeydukes sweets home at Christmas." she said with a grin. Yep, no silly cards taking up necessary room in her trunk. She wondered if he had heard tales of the wonders in Honeydukes... it was Aurora's favourite place in Hogsmeade. No contest.
"You're welcome. It's good to see Slytherins doing homework and earning points." she said with a grin, she'd probably have helped him anyway though. She just liked that people were earning them points.
Hmm, Aurora was a little stuck too, apart from the prey sinew she couldn't really remember... and she wasn't going to tell him - he had to work it out. "Well, Professor Bentley likes people to be a bit original so if you guessed and gave a good reason you'd probably still get points for it."
"
But..." He looked away, as if he was looking into the future or someting. If Theo successfully performed the spell, it would 100% knock Aurora off her chair. Because where else would he aim it?! If it went on the floor... he'd lose points or something. "
I need something to aim at."
"
Yaaaaaay!" More cards, yay! Hopefully she had a few rare ones in her stash. He wouldn't inform her on any rare ones. Nope... he was sneaky like that.
Theodore beamed, "
Points are cool! I can see why you all get in a tizzy over it, all the time." Cos they really did! It shocked Theo in the start of term feast, but now he totally understood. "
I don't suppose going into the forbidden forest would make me lose points??"
Cos he SOOOOO wanted to.
"
Oh, okay..." So, they could say any answer and they'd likely get the points? EXCELLENT. It looked as if she wasn't going to help, though. UGH, annoying. "
Maybe they... steal people's shoe laces for flossing..." Was that a bit of an adventurous guess?
