astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf Four points. He felt like Anna had just gotten off easy considering her had lost ten in Ancient Runes for, well, a similar ish sort of situation. So his eyes were looking over at the Gryffindor captain, wondering what all she would do because...well...threatening Gryffindors of all houses was likely to lead to the complete opposite of what said demands were. So...bye bye those 40 points from Gryffindor house then?
The professor's response to his question was a bit....alarming? He wasn't sure if that was the right word or not, but her asking them all to tell her about the other schools and their house systems when she did...not know herself was not exactly comforting. So he just sorta smiled and nodded at her and reckoned he would ask one of his Beauxbaton transfer friends about that later.
With the next question, well, he was going to just think about Hogwarts when framing his answer. It was all that he knew and, well, he couldn't speak for another country's school or even hope to understand thoughts there without knowing the culture and history of the area, you know? Though, well, Jessa sorta took the thoughts right out of his head. "I...sorta think like Jessa. The houses were kinda the compromise between the four founders....and they kinda handpicked the sort of students they specifically wanted to teach. So...reckon Hogwarts back then compared to now was, you know, it functioned a bit differently than it does now." Or, well, A LOT differently considering how this term was going.
And then came the activity, and out came a piece of parchment and down went his thoughts - as disjointed as they may be. Though he, really did not want to share them all to be honest. Some of it was a little too personal and he would ramble quite a bit - and his heart hurt a bit hearing what Chloe had to say.
Still, he scribbled down a few things and then waited for his turn to present.
"I was a hatstall between Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff...and I kinda requested that the Sorting Hat place me in Hufflepuff..." For Newt Scamander reasons mostly. "...I don't think I am anything like the 11-year-old who sat on that stool...but I also reckon I would still be sorted in to Hufflepuff today based on everything I have experienced...as a Hufflepuff."
