Ruby? Had the professor just said RUBY in association with Dorothy's shoes? That....wasn't right...at all. There seemed to be A LOT of discrepancies between the story she knew and what was presented in the film...which was making her head spin quite a bit when it came to this discussion. It was also becoming a bit difficult for her to keep a neutral expression now that she had realized what a book purist she was - something she had not considered until this moment since, well, film was not something readily available. The Hufflepuff had FAR too many thoughts regarding...well...everything...as the books delve in to much more than apparently the film did - including whether or not her visit to Oz was real or fantasy. But she was going to bite her lip and try not to look to terribly disgruntled.
"In the book...Dorothy's shoes are silver," the seventh year stated after raising her hand, her tone implying that she would rather like an explanation as to why they were RUBY in the film. Not character talk...but.... "These Silver Shoes are quite special in that they will only pass to a new owner if they have physically defeated the previous owner or the previous owner willingly handed them over to the new one. In a sense...they sort of behave similarly to and abide to the same laws of magic as the Elder Wand of the Deathly Hallows."
Which was something she had latched on to as a child when the book had been read to her, which had happened only after wizarding fables had been exhausted and those naturally consisted of Tales from Beetle the Bard.
