"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?
Something to aim at..? Hmm. Aurora took a sheet of plain parchment from the bundle she had brought with her and drew a target on it.
"How about this?" she said, holding it up to the side of her - perfectly aware that she would get wet if he missed... but she was prepared for that. She was interested to see if Theodore was actually able to do this... And she felt bad about the whole chocolate-frog-to-the-face incident. Hehe.
Merlin, he was enthusiastic. Getting rid of those cards apparently had two advantages - space in her trunk
and the entertainment of insane Theo. Heh.
"I'm glad you think so!" she said with a chuckle. Because if he thought they were cool then chances are he would earn more of them, right? Forbidden Forest..?
"It would absolutely lose you points." she said. [b]"So make sure you don't get caught."[b] Hehehe. She wasn't going to say anything against breaking rules - that would be hypocritical.
Shoelaces? Aurora nodded with an amused smile,
"I suppose some might but I think Professor Bentley means the sort of things they can get from nature." Because they couldn't just find shoelaces
anywhere.
"Try mentioning their food - because sometimes chewing stuff can help dislodge other bits of food." she said... because he seemed to be struggling.
