Or even in a few years, to be honest. If one thought about it, five years was considered soon in comparison to 100 years, right? "Are you really going to just stand here, watching, without really knowing how long you'd need to do so?" Ethan glanced back at the bronze knocker before returning his gaze to the curious boy.

And that was only if it was actually going to happen, which was doubtful to the Prefect. He raised a speculative eyebrow in regards to Flamsteed. Really? What did he know about it? "Well.. he hasn't been here very long either. This is only his second year teaching." And if he went to school here, Ethan didn't know. But he had a hard time believing that if he did go to Hogwarts that he was a Ravenclaw, so he most likely didn't spend a lot of time in this general vicinity. "Is it not possible that the spell was re-cast while he was not here.. and without his knowledge? Certainly he hasn't kept his eye on this thing for 1000 years to know."

This boy was rather confusing in his willingness to believe the professor without really thinking it through, but Ethan found it somewhat amusing as well. He took a moment to look at the bronze knocker, then snapped his eyes back to the kid as he spoke, staring at him curiously for a moment. Um.. what? He didn't realize the boy knew who he was.. though it was probably the prefect position that gave him some recognition. "Oh.. you know Minerva?" he said with a hint of surprise. "Well.. yes.. I'm German," he replied with a hint of a nostalgic smile playing on his lips. "What's your name, anyway?" He figured he must know his.. might as well learn the younger boy's as well.

Forrest nodded, dead serious, as the boy repeated his words. His eyes were on the knocker, but he was also eyeing the boy out of the corner of his eye. But his words made him kinda uneasy... maybe Flamsteed didn't know it all about the matter, yes... maybe he was just guessing... Forrest frowned, looked up at the boy in confusion. So it was a battle of sense and the desire to make into history. Could Professor Flamsteed really not know a thing? Well, he'd sounded vague but...

"Yeah she's helped me a lot..." he said thoughtfully as his frown got deeper while he examined the knocker with his eyes. It was obvious his mind wasn't with the Prefect. It was currently working full-capacity for the knocker. "I'm Forrest." He still wasn't looking at the boy--until he asked whether he was going to stand there all day.

"Library!" His face shone momentarily as he'd stared into the eyes of the older boy, and he ran towards the stairs without even excusing himself. He had to learn and make it into history!
