Plus he still wanted time with Soph and to kick back in the common room. But he had still managed to pin point a few key times during the week where he'd be free for the extra practice. And hopefully a few of the times would work for Professor B.

"Thanks for doing this, Professor," he spoke quietly as he handed the parchment back over. Ahem. Or well, for offering to do this.

Guess she wasn't all that bad after all...



He could have turned her offer down, seeing as he was Head Boy and had to have many responsibilities, but the fact that he accommodated her tutoring to his schedule made a sense of pride bubble in her chest. There was a reason this boy was sorted into Gryffindor. Inner tear. He made their house so proud.

Astrid couldn't hide a small, yet prideful smile. She nodded and took the parchment. "It is no problem, Mister Adair. It is my pleasure." She was so excited. He was going to have nonverbal casting down soon. He would. And he would be successful!

There was another long moment of thought, before Daxton pushed his pen out of the spiral binding of the notebook and made a few amendments to his message, and added an extra sentence. When he was done, the Ravenclaw turned his notebook back and showed it to the professor once he was done, so the adjustments were visible.

'These block out too much noise and I want them to be a different colour. I want you to change them.'

Maybe that was clearer - though it baffled Daxton as to why it would need to be any clearer - and exactly what he wanted was emphasised, as well as the fact that he wanted Baxter to do it for him. There was no telling when he would be able to accomplish such practical magic.



She understood. He wanted her to change the color of the earmuffs, but he could at least add a 'please' in there. Due to the lack of tone it could be taken that he was trying to order her. Astrid, though, decided to take it as in he wanted it as a favor, therefore, there was no problem with that.

"Alright, a different color." She studied the earmuffs briefly, then turned her attention back on the boy. A thought nudged her at the back of her mind. "What's your favorite color?" Merlin forbid she changed them to his least favorite color, though, him being here asking for a color change was saying much about preference.
