"Heh," no one heard that right? Maybe he shouldn't have had cheese at breakfast. Could it be possible that this wasn't hunger?

AnYwAy.

Despite certain mental ~~threats~~ promises, Kaiser had ultimately not gone straight from Transfiguration to Schmoe to hand the baby in, in a rare display of tenacity. A good twenty-four hours had passed since he had quietly stepped out of the lesson and then just never went back in, but the situation had not gotten any better. Kaiser had been roaming the castle with Bambino in tow, trying desperately to get him to settle down, and feeling very much on the verge of tears himself.

And then, from the end of the corridor as he passed it, he saw him. Schmoe. Walking. Looking around? Laughing??? ... Whatever. It was Schmoe, and that was what mattered. Split second decisions were made (or maybe they had been made before now, and maybe it had just been a case of waiting for the push) and Kaiser diverted his footsteps, heading down the corridor instead.

"Professor," he called out over the fake baby's very real cries (which had made it so that a certain someone's certain stomach noises had been completely and mercifully inaudible to Kaiser) stepping quickly down the corridor towards him. There wasn't a whole lot of time for pleasantries, as the second Kaiser reached him, he hurriedly handed the doll over to the professor - pointedly avoiding looking up into Schmoe's face, or down into Bambino's - followed by the baby bag. "Here. I quit. I will take the fail. Just... here."

Could he get out of there before Schmoe had the chance to say anything? Kaiser was certainly giving it a go.
