Bounce bounce bounce. He turned his head to the source of the sound, squinted and saw that it was Norah. The perfectly mature one. Sighing in relief, he made his way to her. Oh, she was bouncing a ball... Why?

"You lost your dog?" Did she even have a dog?

Bounce bounce bounce bounce. Norah didn't notice Professor Culloden's arrival until he spoke, but it took a moment for her to register on account of his words making absolutely no sense. "I don't even have a dog." Didn't he KNOW? She'd be a whole lot happier if she had a dog. Pets were the dream, uh huh. Didn't he pay attention? She put her head down to go back to bouncing, because there still didn't seem to be any students who'd do the homework with her. Bounce bounce bou- WAIT.

She caught the ball before it his the floor, and scrambled to her feet. Putting on her most angelic grin, she stretched as tall as she could and put her hands behind her back. "Would you like to help me with my homework, Professor Culloden sir?" This idea was GENIUS. Man. Maybe her brain really had gotten better at coming up with stuff since she'd become a fifth year. It definitely wasn't because of all the books and studying. She absolutely refused to attribute anything good that. So obviously it was the age thing. "It's for charms. I really really really need a partner to play catch with or else I won't get it done on time and Professor Baxter will hate me and I'll fail my exam and flunk out of school and have to live in your potions classroom forever and ever with my wand broken in half so I can't even clean things, just mix things together and make them explode." That was a convincing argument, right? Clearly working with her was for his own good. Just in case it hadn't worked, she added, "Please? It won't take too long, I promise." See that? That was covering all her bases. He had to agree now, he just had to.

"It's not real catch, though. It's SPECIAL catch. I've got to banish the ball towards you and then you can slow it down and catch it and throw it back and then we do it AGAIN." He knew the 'arresto momentum' spell, right? He was a Professor, he was supposed to know everything. Norah gave him another big smile. Pretty please?
