She distinctly remembered what page the Slytherin had been on (page 58) and she distinctly remembered putting the book down on the table next to him. She double checked to make sure she hadn't just imagined putting the book back. Yup. there it was on the table. Right next to the very same chair in which he had been sitting.
"His book is on the table right next to him!" she said a bit incredulously. She walked over to where Snake was sniffling a bit pathetically, but only looked up at the older girl. If she looked at that kid she might punch him which would certainly not get her out of trouble. "I think it would be great if-" here she gestured to the Slytherin boy as she still didn't know his real name and "Snake" might not go over well in this case. "If he learned. I'm a Ravenclaw- it'd be kind of weird if I didn't want people to learn," she wrinkled her nose slightly at the thought of non-learning. She didn't care if Snake wanted to study, she just didn't like how dismissive he was when they were having a conversation.

She was, as his father might put it, 'a piece of work', uttering statements contradictory to her actions. Only mad people did that, or perhaps liars. Neither of which, Cutty really minded when you got down to it, but given the situation he had to protect himself. And he did that in the only way a small snake knows how.
"She put it there! She put it there after she snatched it out of my hands!" He explained in between small huffs. "And she even lost my page too." He said all extra-sad.
Minerva watched as Tora come over and pointed at the book. Well it was right there so what on earth was the problem, really? She glanced at her own book and sighed a bit. Maybe she could turn one of them into a monkey or a chicken. Maybe then they would get along, no that wasn't very puff to think nor was it very prefect. What had gotten into her thoughts, maybe the extra studying. Well anyway.
"Well it seems maybe it fixed itself if she put the book back." Yes could it be that easy?
"Tora I'm not sure what happened before I came in, but I know as a second year you are trying to be a good role model and help this boy, right?" At least she hoped that would happen.
Looking back at the book she turned to the boy,
"First you seem to know my name, well part, call me Minnie please Prefect Wheatborn is just.." not accurate at all she wanted to say, because it's how she felt all term, but first and second years didn't need to know that.
"I don't know your name though, so what is it?" She had seen him in classes, but it was nice to actually know a person.
"Second what are you studying, maybe I can help or at least help find the page again." See nice and easy the problem could be fixed and even if Tora (who got a few eye glances) was being not so nice she would probably stop now that someone else was in the room.
