Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee Chloe wasn't afraid of the dark, but she still grabbed for Derf's hand as the professor led them into the dark and instructed them to keep their wands holstered. It wasn't a natural reaction to be afraid and unsure and potentially in danger and to be forced to approach it with no wand in hand.
"Sorry." She whispered and dropped Derf's hand, scuttling ahead of him to try to follow the rest of the students who were stringing out between the professor and the end of the line. That was Chloe, and it steeled her spine a bit. She and Derf were the last defense. She could be brave on behalf of other people.
"If you can't provide your own light, professor, then I wouldn't follow someone else's lamp off the path you've already found to be safe. And it's the best way to keep your feet dry, yeah?" Maybe she was teasing a bit since the professor had given her such a hard time about the wet feet comment. He'd missed the rest of it, her whole point, hadn't he?
