"I promise I'll try my best," He said very honestly. "I might even pay Professor Hirsch a visit about this. I can't afford to make mistakes that could have been avoided on the first place."

He was only going to do it because he'd decided that he liked Healer Reed. There was something very comforting about being taken completely seriously by a proper adult, especially one as busy as the man probably was. He especially found it flattering when the guy admitted to having things in common with him. Well, having HAD things in common back when the healer was young. Levi wanted to go one of his verbal diarrhea episodes right then, but he could be cool, calm and collected. Like Declan. Or he could try, so mostly he ended up nodding along enthusiastically and beaming quite openly.

Small victories and silver linings were important. He stood up, and after a moment of hesitation, offered his hand to healer Reed for a shake. "Thanks, that...means a lot, sir. I'll do my best not to disappoint the two of us." He pushed his reading glasses up, a little bit, with his free hand. The smile he sported was only a little bit bashful. "And if you don't mind, it would be great if you could just call me Levi. Everyone does." Those who knew his name, anyway. "Master Kenning is my dad."

So the idea convinced him? Good. It seemed that his Ravenclaw brain still served him good, directing brilliant students to be a better version of themselves. It seemed that Levi already got things under control just by deciding to pay Roderick a visit. Besides, that man needed all the distraction he could get...given his most recent...unfortunate incident. "I am sure that Professor Hirsch will not fail you. Perhaps you could also give him a bit of background as to why you're asking for his help so he can customise your practice?" Although Levi has a lifetime to execute such spells, he would need to cut to the chase, considering that he's already a fifth year.

River too stood up and took Levi's hand to shake, grinning at the young man as he did so. "Well, one day you will inherit that title, Master Kenning, but if you say so..." he paused, letting go of the boy's hand. "Or perhaps, I really should stop calling you that, for I don't want to be mistaken when the time comes for me to call you Healer Kenning." Grin. "My door is always open, Levi. Come stop by anytime if you need further help," he said nodding to the Gryffindor.
