"And honestly, its NEWT level material, Sierra. You did well enough keeping up. The idea is to introduce the concepts for further study and give an idea of what study in this field actually entails. Don't feel bad for finding it difficult - I know you'd be capable of the work, were you interested in making a go of it."
Suddenly, Sierra made a sort of flailing motion in the professor's direction. Professor. Department Head. Alchemist. Whatever she was. Either way, she got a flail. Or two. That flail was almost saying,
Professor!!! SHHHH!!!! Sierra had issues with failure, and she sincerely hoped nobody overhead that whole NEWT-level part.
"Right, ...thanks, Professor," she said. She'd always be professor to Sierra.
"I'll get those figured out and owled to you as soon as possible." Then she edged a bit closer and quitened down again.
"Right, err...this isn't going to be on my OWLs, is it? Only my NEWTs?"
