Text Cut: Romanos

Sophie had come prepared and was wearing more layers than usual under her robes. Seated near Mo, of course, she was trying to resist the urge to scoot her mat over and cuddle up to the older boy for further warmth.

A good distraction from the low temperature of the room was the article Romanos gave to each of them, and Sophie got distracted reading the page through a few times, tuning out whatever the professor was saying to the kids who were quick to ask questions. She did catch that it was from 2048 right away, though, and she relaxed a little, still all too curious - the coincidences surrounding Romanos' topics this term and the extremely bitter winter seemed all too... fishy. Did the professor think they were being threatened right now? Was she teaching them about these because it was something they needed to worry about?

Worry Sophie did, and her expression showed it a little before she flipped the page of the Quibbler over and set it on the floor next to her. No. She didn't want to see it anymore. It was way cool and all to think about as a myth or just a story - but at the possibility of it being a threat to them, that's when it became far less cool. And she didn't even have anything to add to what everyone else was saying because she was hardly processing it, but from what she gathered, they were covering all the basics just fine. Yeah. But she was listening now.

"Though I do know there are a variety of creatures that are attracted to cold temperatures, both magical and mundane." Would they have four legged visitors here at hogwarts? Or perhaps...eight legged? "You are correct, Mister Strand. These are indeed the ones I've mentioned in our previous lesson." Nodding towards the Hufflepuff, she finally took quick notice to see just who else had joined their lesson. Quite a lot, considering the chilliness. Gold stars for everyone. "The article you all should haff in hand is from an issue of the Quibbler from quite a long vhile ago, in 2048. Though it's the photograph that i found most fascinating. Not the illustration at the bottom, but the actual image in the middle of the page. Even from the distance, you can see they aren't at all rotting nor disfigured as you'd normally see in the zombies you imagine." "Does anyone remember a fact or two about the Cold Ones or Skygge from the previous lesson and homevork?" Sophie had come prepared and was wearing more layers than usual under her robes.
