Oliver..... he clearly didnt know what was going on in the class and Echo found this extremely funny. Hopefully she didnt receive some stares or glares from him. Oliver's face turned a deeper shade of red when he heard the girl next to him laughing quite loudly at his mistake. Great. GREAT. And she was a really cute girl too. Why couldn't it have been...like...someone he already knew at least? Maybe then he'd be less embarrassed...though the odds of that happening were very low. Glancing at the girl, he offered her a very small, very shy, very embarrassed smile and nodded. "I know...rididculous." He knew better. Quote:

But I do expect a fifth year especially to know how to conduct himself in a classroom. Please use your inside voice.” Impassioned arguments could come later. As well as the headache he could feel coming on.
... “Alright, everyone, thank you for your contribution. Hopefully you all took notes on what your classmates said and what you found in the text.” Ansley was not going to summarize the collective answers as he found that would be quite redundant. Sometimes they needed to do some of the work themselves. “So, the Wizard’s Council was a basic governing body for the magical community. Once the secrecy statute was enacted, it was found to be necessary to have a more sophisticated form of government. That is not to say it is not without its flaws.” Any form of government could be said to be flawed, and could always be improved.
“Both the Wizard’s Council and the Ministry of Magic were responsible for proposing and enacting the laws of the wizarding community. Many of them controversial, most had people for or against them, depending on what the law proposed.” Some were completely defunct now. “Who can either name a law that one of these governing bodies were responsible for, or even mention a fact or opinion about it? Or if it is a particularly controversial one, maybe offer your stance on it and why you think the way you do. You can use your book again for this if you need to, but many of the laws are further into the chapter.” So they’d have to delve into it a bit harder, and many weren’t even written into their textbook. But he was sure there was enough in there for everyone to contribute. And then there was Professor Finch, telling Oliver exactly what he had just told himself. He did indeed know better. And not only that, but he also pointed out how Ollie had 'changed' his mind based on Dot's answer. In reality, he just hadn't been listening before but whatever. Oliver simply mumbled a sorry under his breath and stared hard at his paper. There was no way he was going to let himself answer the next question. He was just gonna keep his mouth shut for a bit to make up for how loud he had been. Maybe by doing that, he would actually listen to everyone.
There were plenty of people in class. His participation wouldn't be missed. |
