Zeke was a guy he'd seen around lots, even if he'd never really had a proper conversation with him. He knew how to do spells too so on the off chance this class veered in that disastrous direction he was covered.
Despite all that, there was still some hesitation when question about what he'd be asking the almighty, all-knowing sticks got brought up. It was...kinda like when you made a wish on a birthday cake. That whole not saying it or it might not come true. Though perhaps in this case it was more like nightmares where if you said them they were more likely to happen. Still, a partner was a partner and if the older lion to decide a more open partner would have been better then Blaise would have PROBLEMS. "I wanna know if I'm gonna suck at magic forever." Said somewhat over a whisper but it certainly wasn't a conversation for just ANY ears and so he wouldn't say it loudly....'cause....what if the Universe was listening.....? "What's yours?"
Suck at magic forever....
DID the boy suck at magic? Should he have partnered with someone else? Eh. They didn't NEED magic for this, the numbers would do the talking. Of course, he'd have said something about the 'sucking at magic' thing, but Professor Tanner interjected, and with such wise words too. "It's true man, you'll find your feet." Everyone did... unless they were a squib, in which case, unlucky?
But WHAT was his question. Well, "I want to know if I'll get five O's on my OWLs next year..." mmmhmm... "or maybe not. Suppose I could just ask if I will be a Curse Breaker when I leave school." That was a good a question as any too, still, options. Which to pick though. Did he WANT to know the answer to either? Maybe. Maybe not. "We'll do your reading first, you've got a question..." and this way the boy would know if he was a squib or not. Just, rip off the bandaid so to speak. "I'll be right back." Cause... Cim bucket thing needed incensing and things.
Walking the short distance to the table where the incense was burning, Zeke held the Cim bucket and moved it around the incense three times as directed. It was easy enough, though he still wasn't sure how he felt about INCENSE in general. Smelly stuff was difficult to appreciate when it made his nose twitch. Still, he was thankful it wasn't lavender.
Mixing up the sticks by hand, Zeke then returned to Blaise, "Heeerrreeeeeeee you go!" he beamed, handing over the tube contraption. Now he could watch. Watch watch watch... and decide on his own question.
