 Arts TRANSPONSTER!
Derek frowned at the weirdness of some people around him. He was actually expecting that. Creatures didn't act weird, human beings did. Derek was always quite aware of that.
That Ella woman sure sounded enthusiastic about all this. Which the former Gryffindor didn't mind. People are supposed to be excited about their field, aren't they? Well, at least he was.
When everybody else followed the Head of Department's instruction and looked up, Derek took a glance at all of the people there before looking up himself. Squinting his eyes, he noticed some squirrels and birds. Nice view indeed. The young man started trying to figure out what birds were those and if their feathers would have any sort of magical properties when Ella called their attention to one specific bird.
It was relatively larger than the ones Derek was looking at, but it didn't look as if it was enjoying its freedom like the others did. Then the question. Ella's question made Derek feel like he was back at Hogwarts again, in a CoMC class. That wasn't one of his worst subjects, so he didn't mind. But, just like he did at school, the 26 year-old kept quiet and just watched the creature while other people talked about it.
