 Wowza!
Levi was not usually very concerned with what the general population of Hogwarts thought of him or whatever reputation he had, which was possibly a result of spending too much behind a book or with his siblings and their latest, out of curfew exploit. But it was still very true that the thought of his parents showing up at school was unnerving. His mother would have stormed the castle and scourged the entire school to find them; at the same time, his father would have made a show of invading all three of their respective common rooms to pack all their belongings before impatiently waiting at the school gates for them.
More than unnerving it was embarrassing. He was not sure he'd be able to ever make his fellow Gryffindors forget such a spectacle. "Well," Levi said, after a moment of deliberation. "If kids are disappearing, it's likely that all parents will be informed." It would surprise him immensely if it wasn't a part of a special edition of the Prophet already. "At this point, I think, it's more a matter of, er, trying to placate them." Which was really more of an Althea sort of mission, which is why Levi shot her a very pointed look. "If you are able to talk sense into dad..." Then we might not have to leave. But then, wouldn't Althea want to leave?
He did not much like the idea of putting so much on Althea's shoulders. "Let's hope it isn't time traveling. The consequences could be disastrous." People, unfortunately, did not take time traveling as serious as they should. "Yeah, it couldn't have been a portkey. You can't apparate in and out of Hogwarts." This was a fact.
