Avalon was no longer surprised by the hooded figures gracing each classroom with their presence. They seemed to be at every lesson nowadays. She found herself wondering why they didn't have anything better to do. Or perhaps they just enjoyed attending each lesson so they could inflict torture on anyone who dared to speak up.

"Good afternoon, Professor," she said tiredly, noting Professor Recard's apparent exhaustion as well. It seemed like everyone at Hogwarts was having trouble sleeping lately.

Avalon took a seat near Aboli and Morgan, giving her fellow classmates a nod. If they weren't standing right in front of her, she would have offered a sarcastic comment about the hooded figures to her friends. But alas, doing so could get her mouth taken away, or Merlin knew what else, so she settled for a halfhearted wave instead.
