Professor Snitch... I mean Potions... he wasn't fair! And I'm not saying that just because I got in trouble. I get in trouble all the time," and deserved it. BUT NOT THAT TIME. "I was just taking up for Kevin, who was having a REALLY rough day. And the stupid Puffy Prefect was threatening to hit him, and some stupid Claws were being mean to him, too. THen Professor Potions was siding with THEM and got his panties in a wad when I melted my cauldron."
So .... ".... I've just been living without it. I wrote some essays. Been doing extra work for Professor Thompson." Yeeeeeeeeeeeah. But Zahra hung her head. She was in trouble and she knew it.
She knew? Well this was a step in the right direction. What she wasn't expecting was a tirade of sorts about getting into trouble, something about Culloden, Puffers and Claws? and.... threatening? mean to him? And Culloden siding with others over Kevin didn't come as a surprise.
Seren was happy to ignore the cauldron melting stuff for now, because that would need to be addressed, but more importantly...
"Which Prefect would this be? And the Ravenclaws?" she asked, twisting a little in her seat now, everything else forgotten.
"I take bullying and threats very seriously Zahra, if this is happening I'd like to know about it so that I can support you... there's to be no taking measures into your own hands if you can help it." And in this instance it could have been helped, easily. If not by notifying Culloden, but by informing her... if there was ever a reason to walk out of class, this would be it.
