Derf stayed quiet with his eyes trained to the ground until Professor O'Hara spoke. Though even then his gaze did not exactly move and his only real sort of adjustments were the addition of tension to his shoulders. "Astrology, professor," he nodded, somewhat echoing the headmaster and his brow furrowing a bit at the dismissal of centaurs. It made him suddenly reflect upon the start of term and the appointment of Professor Fletcher....and who else MAY have been granted that post. Briefly, his eyes flickered back towards the path leading down to the lake..........and the Forbidden Forest.
Maybe...Thereos could help? Thereos and his herd? Derf was tempted, to say the least.
Though his thoughts hardly had time to linger on mum's former co-worker as the man was addressing him and Jessa once more. Oh...boy. He could almost feel the increase in fidgeting that the man's words may elicited from the Ravenclaw considering how she had done everything in her power to not be an active participant in this incident and how utterly shocked and horrified she had looked when he had revealed that he had been the one to report the Astronomy professor by writing in the journal. He felt terribly selfish feeling a small sense of relief in that they would share the burden together, however.
"......yes, sir," he subtly nodded, giving Jessa another brand of an apologetic look as he made a slow turn to head back inside. Insides numb blessedly numb and grateful that the Hufflepuff common room was so close.
