...but seeing as he had the emotional depth of a puddle, he couldn't exactly go the sappy 'so sorry' route (and sort of didn't think that would help?). So instead, he adopted his 'totally a bad-butt rebel' voice and commented, "Whoa, you fought a gargoyle? And you must've beat it too, because you're alive and everything. That's first rate, that is."

Quick, someone change the topic! CHANGE THE TOPIC, DARN IT! Maybe Bernie could accidentally hide her upset face behind this plate, which was now just basically a trash bin for candy wrappers? She was not above littering in order to (literally) save her face.

She looked up from pretending to study a scuff on her boot, secretly hoping... he genuinely meant that? "Um," blushblushblush, "thanks? I mean, I DID send RED SPARKS into its mouth, and it backed off, so, I did defeat it, in a way?" Did she sound a little bit proud of this moment?

She did not mention the follow-up class to that horrible gargoyle one, in which she and her friend had been forced to wear beekeeper clothes. Or were they fencing outfits? Either way, they were essentially fireproof padding. Because first years could not be trusted with wands.
