Perhaps laughing for similar reasons as to why the Charms professor attempted to create the rumor about Airey in the first place. It really was laughable. Not that the astronomer doubted Maddox could do such a thing given his skill set - he could just transform into a feline and weave through someone's legs on the stairs- but all the effort it would take covering his tracks, well, Airey doubted the man had the patience for that.
He was hardly doing a good job hiding the fact that he was an unregistered animagus for Merlin's sake. Not that Airey was going to go frolicking down to Law Enforcement to tell them about that or anything.
And then there was Sabel being a humongous buzz kill. HUMONGOUS.
Not taking no for an answer, the Astronomy professor leaned over a bit more. "You didn't have to," he whispered, his eyes darting about the Great Hall eagerly. "He told me the whole story the other day. How he pretended to be the Deputy Headmaster and how you were hired to keep an eye on me and take me out." What Maddox had left out was the bit about how he, Airey Flamsteed, had apparently offed Medea.
Hence the need to play a little harmless prank back on the man.
"You know, he is always telling students to be mindful of their words for they have their consequences," he continued, casually tracing over the table with his index finger. "We're educators. That position hardly ends with seventh years, wouldn't you agree?"
Come on, Sabel, stop being such a black hole!
