Zelena grinned at the thought of her favourite subjects. "I love Charms and Transfiguration. When I first started to develop my magic skills, those were the two subjects I could easily do. They are incredibly wicked. Not evil wicked but a fun wicked."
Zelena finished the last drop of water and handed the goblet to Dora. "Thanks for that. It really hit the spot." She once again looked at the text work that Dora had with her. "Are you doing some studying?"
Oh so Zelena had two dads? Two Muggle dads. That was cool. But... how did she end up here if she was living with Muggles? "
Wait. They are named after the characters in that Muggle book series? That's odd. And how did you get here if you are living with Muggles? Do they know about the Wizarding world now? How does that work?" She had all of the questions, she did.
And now Dora nodded along about the comments on Charms and Transfiguration. "
They are fun, yes. And dead useful. I just prefer the hands on stuff with Herbology and the destruction in Defense." THOSE were her specialties. Fire and destruction.
Taking the goblet back she looked at her handiwork and tucked it back into her bag. "
Yeah, I am in OWL year. I believe in starting early with the studies. No need in waiting until the last minute."
Pushing one book toward the girl she revealed that not all of her books for exam studying... One was for her own extracurricular learning. "
I am learning to do nonverbals. Been studying and getting help, too. I hope to have mastered it by end of term."
