He seems to love teaching, and I don't think he would feel that his little sister was disturbing him. I'm sure that it would make him happy." That she would want him to help her. Of course it was up to Olivia as far as if she actually DID, but there was nothing wrong with sharing an opinion. "Well, that's great! Are you feeling confident about your OWLs?" A lot of students didn't, but then there were quite a few who did. And a study group definitely helped with exams and classes in general.

Rosalyn wondered what was up with the shiver from Olivia, but felt that it wasn't her place to ask; clearly the girl was completely fine. "It's weird to think of them as beings with complex emotions. Usually they come across as only caring about causing mischief. Well, that seems to be what Peeves is about on the most part these days." Head shake. He was back to his old self now that he was once again the only poltergeist in the castle.
Olivia nodded, listening to Professor Netwon's words. Yes, Simon wasn't malicious with his actions. He wouldn't be upset with her disturbing him for help. He would encourage her asking questions of him. He was really great and patient with her. She nodded. "Yeah, he's always tried to provide me with help." Olivia smiled. She had a great brother. She was lucky with him. Her eldest brother tried to keep to himself usually. And for OWLs.... "I feel pretty confident.. I'm worried about Ancient Runes but I've been spending a lot of time trying to understand all of our lessons. It's been slow but I have a study group." It was her, Torrance, and a few others. A great idea for a study group.

She hadn't thought of them being so complex as beings... Olivia frowned, feeling a little silly that she hadn't even thought such a thing. It had never crossed her mind. But Professor Netwon was right. Peeves had reverted back to his original self. She nodded in agreement at Professor Newton's words about Peeves and poltergeists being more complex. "It seems as if he's almost forgotten about what happened last year.... Does the memory charm work on poltergeists?"
