 We came in with Claudine ^_^ Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ Dark Brooding Girl ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll
Heath trudged into the duelling arena alongside Claudine. The setting reminded him of last term’s bubak lesson… the one time he ever felt confident in a DADA lesson, the time when Headmaster Trent seemed to actually care about his students, the time when Heath respected and looked up to him… The memory brought all the feelings of betrayal back full force, but Heath was careful not to let any emotion show on his face. No matter what happened, he would not give Trent the satisfaction of seeing him vulnerable! More importantly, he knew Claudine needed him to stay strong.
As much as Heath hated what the headmaster had become this term, they had one thing in common - a dislike of unnecessary chatter. Instead of a verbal greeting, he acknowledged the man with a polite nod, realizing too late that he probably wouldn’t see it due to the darkness and his interest in… whatever those papers were. He followed Claudine to the window, squinting his eyes to make out his surroundings. Darkness, dummies… they must be covering another creature of darkness. A lethifold? Or maybe a dementor this time? Ooh, were they going to practice the patronus charm? Knowing Trent, he would go about it in the most sadistic way possible, but it was still useful knowledge.
In the darkness, Heath could just barely see someone nodding in his direction. Was that Avalon? Whoever it was, they got a polite nod in return.
