A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.
Dorian hadn't even bothered using magic to illuminate the classroom. He figured that if the older students weren't able to he certainly couldn't and it was probably for a reason.
Instead, his blue eyes were looking at the other side of the room where multiple doors were and above them were names shining in bright letters. It didn't take him too long until he found his own name and he sighed. Part of him wanted to leave and go to the library or the common room. The professor wasn't even here, he wouldn't find out if he left...right? But this was a class and as much as he did not want to go to his door, Dorian still did because he was a good student who followed the rules!
Standing in front of it, he Ravenclaw had long ago zoned out the rest of the group and took out his acacia wand. What he was going to do with it, he had no idea. He didn't even know what was on the other side of that door and he hated it that he was curious to find out. This was defence class, certainly there wouldn't be any kittens on the other side of the door.
With another deep sigh, Dorian used his non wand hand to push open the door but before his hand made contact the door creaked open and the fourteen year old had the feeling that he was stepping in to a haunted house.
Stepping inside, he hadn't taken a couple of steps before the door closed behind him and he jumped, startled by the sudden noise. The room was pitch black which of course heightened his fear and as he walked he held his arms in front of him giving him the appearance of a zombie.
When he heard something shuffling somewhere in the room, Dorian stood still. His eyes were wide open and he seemed to have been frozen. When the shuffling went behind him he spun around so quickly he actually made a pirouette A non elegant one. Maybe....maybe if he stood veeeeery still, whatever it was that was in the room with him would go away?
So he stood still, trying to not even breathe too hard. CAUSE HE WAS FREAKING OUT silently
