He shot a glance at Rooney and sighed. He felt guilty for taking points away from a PREFECT but...he would have taken points away from anyone else for such cruelty in words.

But he heard one word...Thumbelina. WHAT WAS THAT? It piqued the professor's curiosity, and he would write home soon enough to ask Milton if HE knew because Milton knew pretty much everything.

He smiled in Rooney's direction. Don't feel baaaaaaad, child.

"Oh m'dear...that is lovely!" he clapped a little at her performance. "Beautiful! You should be a poet!" he smiled and nodded.

Was Charlotte Kettleburn okay? She, too, seemed out of it. Paul cleared his throat at her. "Miss Kettleburn!" he said. "Are you THERE?" if he was closer he would have waved his hand in front of her face.

The...dozing boy got a....LIGHT squirt of water in his face.

That may or may not have come from Paul's wand.

Ahem.

...well she wasn't wrong! Paul laughed a little. "You're right--oxygen AND nitrogen--" that was so funny! "But in this instance I meant....WATER." They had all gotten it correct! He was so proud. Granted, it wasn't a hard riddle at all.

JUST ENOUGH TO GET THEIR JUICES FLOWING.

He let a stream of water flow from the end of his wand and onto the soil. "MAKE SURE YOU ALL GET EVERYWHERE--" Well, everywhere that they could. But once he was satisfied the soil was mushy under their feet, he smiled. "ONTO The next riddle! This one isn't as easy...so..." Ahem.

"Good job kids.You figured it out!
The next clue is harder, no doubt!
So listen closely, peel those ears!
Or you’ll be stuck this small for years.

Sprinkle this next thing all over the dirt.
You’d think this substance would make the soil desert.
No no, don’t worry! Some things it does dry,
But for roses, sprinkling this will help them get by."

He was kidding about the staying small forever thing, though, students.

OOC: I made brief reference to this next riddle in one of my previous posts BUT I understand if literally no one gets it xD I'll post Paul if the students are having trouble. <3

Also, I see some of you not referencing the fact that they are SMALL and shrunk to the size of bugs...on the rosebush. *just wanted to clear that up for future RP reasons*

"Aguamenti!" A little water over here and a little water over here. Bella thought as she moved her wand back and forth and all around. She wanted to make sure that everywhere got just enough water. She could feel the solid beneath her feet getting mushy and squishy. It was a good thing she didn't mind and the shoes she had on was not a good pair.

Bella listened carefully to the next clue and blurted out the first things that came to mind. "Compost... oh wait fertilizer...err both." What was it her great grandmother said about compost and fertilizer? One feeds the soil and the other feeds the plants. She wasn't sure if either of them was completely the correct answer because she was sure her granny used something else in her roses, but Bella couldn't remember what exactly.
