"You're wasting ink," he whispered so only the young man could hear him, pointing to the dark spots on his parchment. Not to mention dirtying up his notes!

Ink? Seriously? All the man was thinking about was ink??? James was about to pick up the quill and throw a full scale Lee tantrum, but his mother's words came back to him loud and clear. None of your tantrums when you get things wrong, young man. You're going to school to learn, not to be right. His blue eyes finally raised from the desk and he shoved his quill back into the ink pot as he gave the professor a very tearful THERE, HAVE IT YOUR WAY look.

He listened to the professor in silence with a very crestfallen look all over his adorable little face, but watched the stupid demonstration. He finally moved to put his wellies on after a few moments of listening to the professor's... insane chatter about gravitational pulls. Jay slipped out his wand and gripped it firmly. Wait... did he hit himself on the head BEFORE or AFTER? He blinked at his wand a few times before even attempting to say the spell. "Abraxtraxi Granita." No? Was he saying it wrong? "Aquataxi..." he trailed off after that one, sort of giggling. He was imagining a taxi made out of water... or that drove on water. Oh, he wanted to see that! WOULD IT LOOK LIKE A TURTLE OR A DOLPHIN? "Aquatraxia Granita." Yep. That had to be correct. James proudly smacked himself on the head, though he wasn't exactly... gentle.
