Sarcasm. The new Care of Magical Creatures Professor was definitely fond of it and while Maeve was generally sarcastic herself, she wasn't sure if she liked being on the receiving end of it. Frowning visibly, she remained quiet throughout the next spattering of questions. What else lives here? Was she allowed to give Cornish a taste of his own medicine back and say 'crabs', because that was literally what she wanted to say just now. And sand. Sand wasn't living but it was a part of the whole ecosystem that Cornish was on about.

When had she tapped into muggle biology class? And why? Maeve was here for the creatures (and the beach!). Not the science lesson; it was enough to have it from astronomy but to get two courses on science was just too much and Maeve did not like it. Example of the food chain? Was it like in that classic muggle movie that talked about the circle of life?? Lions were the top of the food chain, if she recalled, but well, for all she knew, the movie was a lion (lying, geddit?).

Moving on though to talking about disasters and how they threw off the Hogwarts ecosystem. Was he talking about like, for example, in the Battle of Hogwarts of 1998 when the bridge got destroyed. Plants that lived on that bridge got destroyed. Animals that pollinated the plants got destroyed. And such was the circle. Thrown off by the damage from foolish blasts.

Not only did Cornish speak sarcasm, but it seemed was also maybe a hippie? Was that the correct wording? Eco-warrioring; honestly. She may as well start with what was first on the list mentioned of trash pickup, although the plimpy catch and release sounded appealing. Pick up the trash and do ... what with it exactly? Burn it? Although that would throw off the ecosystem some more and yet somehow it was awfully tempting. Meandering slowing along the beach, her eyes peeled for some ... easy pieces of trash to pick up, she raised her hand to call attention to herself, "So uh, are there bags or something we're meant to put the trash in?" Sorry if that was dumb. He hadn't said anything about such. Ew. Was that chicken bones? From someone's dinner on the beach or was it a chicken massacre? Who knew really but then again, were there even chickens AT hogwarts??
