Though soon his eyes did return back to the Divination professor, nodding his head long before the man had finished his sentence. He knew and honestly had been prepared for some more backlash...so he was a bit surprised when it did not come. Pleasantly so and, well, making assumptions went both ways now, didn't it?
Honestly, Derf was finding this detention informative and all in all...he did not find the new Divination professor all that unreasonable. On top of it all...he felt seen. Incredibly misunderstood, yes. But seen.
"Understood, sir," was all he offered in reply to that.
Eyeing the stack indicated by Professor Fletcher, he couldn't help but crack a bit of a smile. "You need not worry about my doing that, professor." He even sounded excited about prospect of coming across an insect or two. Or a rodent. Or, well, who KNEW what would appear in here! The bald man had just opened up an entire other door of possibility right now.
Though he did have one question for clarification.
"Magically, sir?" he inquired as he moved over to the stack and picked up the topmost book. He nearly sat down, his knees even bent to do so, but quickly straightened up. He did not see any mundane cleaning materials around. Which, well, made his skin goosebump a bit at having to cast spells on potentially ancient texts. He had become rather proficient in them for Simon's sake at least.
