Lex watched the spells being cast and a few stray ones helping them out too but hearing the Professor say they had to head back, it was time to cut their losses. Even not having frozen all the fairies, they still had an impressive number to split between the two of them. How many did they need again? The Gryffindor couldn't exactly remember but that number would hardly matter now that they were through with this so she shoved the mirror back into her pocket and began collecting the frozen fairies.

It was sometimes amazing to see what team work could get you. Without Cutty she'd probably have been diving for the hour and not having a single fairy to add to her jar--not completely accurate if she'd set the mirror just right and done a sneak attack but you got the idea. This way brought on better results and they Gryffindor was able to effortlessly place three fairies in her jar, leaving enough for Cutty.

Lex trusted he'd unfreeze the ones he didn't need and nodded toward the others for him to hurry it up before heading back with the others.

Back at the benches Lex listened to the others give suggestions for creatures like the fairies. Might have been worth an answer too but with everyone already chiming in there was no real point in repeating--even if others had. She'd just...stand here with her things now collected and wait for them to be dismissed. Something she didn't have to wait too long for actually even if it was only technically dismissed. Still needed to take a bottle of...er...whatever this thing was, pour some into her jar then hand it to the guy next to her--

Hang on, caretakers? For FAIRIES?? Did Professor Thompson NOT know the reputation her kneazle held? Circe help her. It'd be a struggle to keep them alive and away from the fury ball of terror. Oh Merlin.

"Thanks for the lesson Professor." She was off to hide her fairies.
