Now’s a good time to do his Charms Homework, yeah? Not just to tick another box from his ‘To-Do List’ but to keep the castle warm and all. Turns out, the task had become essential for the structure, as well as its inhabitants. Ethan started off with his favourite place in the castle. Gregory the Smarmy. Revelations happened here, as well as assurance, therefore this place would be on his top priority.

The boy got his wand out and faced the statue of Greg. Seeing that it’s still in good shape, Ethan walked further and settled for a spot just a few inches away from the statue. A sideways infinity sign wand movement and, “Caelum Saepio!” a puff of light smoke came out of the wall, indicating that he had done the spell right.

But oh. What is that piece of paper wedged in between the wall and Greg’s statue? Ethan’s curiosity got the best of him, and read the…oh hell no. Another Aparecium. The boy’s brows furrowed, and he felt his face go warm with anger. He ought to be happy because the article-slash-gossip isn’t so bad. It’s just that…MERLIN. Can’t he have any privacy in this school? Culloden and the boy discussed a sensitive subject for the Slytherin, and it was upsetting that somebody had eavesdropped on their conversation! Crumpling the article into a ball, Ethan jammed the ball of parchment inside his pocket and angrily dashed off to the next location to complete his homework. He’d definitely burn the article once he’s back in their Common Room.
