Sophie Brown to the rescue! Norah would act surprised except then she'd just be lying, 'cause everybody knew that Sophie Brown was a real hero. She deserved those five points too, maybe even more. The Ravenclaw could probably win a whole house cup all by herself, considering all the hero-ish stuff she did. This fifth year could use a few lessons.

She nodded solemnly at Professor Tanner's response. "Sorry, Professor. It makes more sense now." Misunderstanding was something Norah was VERY good at. She had a whole lot of practice, uh huh. Before she could say anything else there was an ickle Ravenclaw by her desk, doing the snuggle thing. Did he KNOW that snuggles were her favorite things? She gave Rooney the Cutie (she'd have to think of a more creative nickname later) a big squish and a smile. "You're a sweetheart, did you know?" If he didn't know he was going to learn real fast, considering he was probably the sweetest sweetheart who ever lived.

With the weight that didn't seem to want to leave her shoulders just the slightest big lighter, she turned back to her textbook. Her negative arrow was an "Arrow of Resignation." So that meant she lacked motivation? That was.....kind of true in some senses but 600% untrue in others. She only lacked motivation in some things, and those were dumb things like hair brushing or reading more pages than her professors said she had to. She was EXTRA motivated for some things that she considered to be a whole lot more important. So maybe Sophie Brown was right (wasn't she always?) and the arrows weren't as clear cut as they seemed to be. That was a much nicer way to think about it. Rooney's hugs probably helped the most, though, but don't tell anybody. Especially since he called her pretty, 'cause who ever said that? Probably nobody, unless she wasn't listening hard enough.

Norah moved on to Professor Botros's grid next, drawing it next to her notes on the arrow meanings.

Quote:

The Headmaster's Grid:
3 6 9
2 5 8
1 4 7

Two thousand THREE. Man, he was OOOOOLD. She squinted at the grid. Wait. Wasn't that only a positive arrow? She checked the meaning of that one: organized and stuff, which made sense considering his job, before putting a hand in the air. Oh. Zeke had the same question. She brought it down again and looked expectantly at Professor Tanner. Could she have more Rooney cuddles now?
