So clearly, Zander in his current condition was DANGEROUS. First, he announced that he needed to take out ALL HIS RAGE on someone. And that someone, at the moment, had to be Natalia, because she was his one and only partner. She couldn't exactly blame him for being angry, because she chose to brew the potion.

Glaring at the prefect with a bit of confusion on her face, Natalia began to notice Zander's rather rapid change of emotion. Was the fluctuation... normal?

Natalia knew that since he was bound to feel angry, she should react more... passively around him - but this was easier said than done. Her enthusiasm made him want to punch something? WELL HOW RUDE. Instead of growing annoyed as she usually would have been, the Lioness continued to carry that bright smile on her face and giggled - half reacting to Zander's red face and half for no reason. GIGGLES.

Oooh... an ELF! A HOUSE ELF!

Completely ignoring her homework partner, Natalia sprang up from her seat and rushed over to the house elf in such a hasty manner that her left shoe flung off her foot and flew Merlin-knows-where (Zander's lap? Dunno). Never mind that now, because NATALIA HAD NEVER SEEN A HOUSE ELF BEFORE. EVER.

"Aww... you're SO CUTE!" Natalia approached the elf and poked him slightly on the nose. WHEEEEEEE. SHE JUST TOUCHED A HOUSE ELF. "What's your name? Why are you here? I though house elves weren't suppose to appear in front of people? Are you in charge of the Gryffindor common room? Do you change my bed sheets? You do my laundry right? YOU'RE SO CUTE."
