For a while Lex had been completely fixated on the leaves that were scattered about the floor. It wasn't so much that she had an impulse to smash them but rather an impulse to question their purpose. Why were they there? Were they hiding something beneath them? Being a distraction for something else? If so, she was failing because she was distracted, seriously distracted and only came back to the present when she heard people naming spells.

Defensive spells? It would make sense given the class they were in. A few were repeating the same spell too and she figured this had to have some meaning to it but....what?

"Incendio." Lex said with the most confused of looks. They were probably talking about the leaves right? And how to get rid of them? Getting them in a heap and incendio-ing them would do wonders Professor.

Helpful Lex was helpful. Romanos was SO welcome.
