I...I dunno. But all this is a good sign ... I think XD astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf Last term, Atlas would have never DREAMED of speaking up in a lesson...let alone talk back to a professor. Not even Professor Williamson or Professor Auntie June. He was too afraid to and considering the number of Crucio's he had seen right before his very eyes, not to mention TWO Killing Curses, the Gryffindor had every reason to zip it.
But now...was different. He felt a little safer and therefore it was a testament and a GOOD thing that he was behaving the way he was. At least that was what mum had said and it was permission he was going to run with.
Tail smaller now and more manageable, Atlas politely thanked the professor before his mouth was back at it. "Distracting for who, professor? That seems like a vague and kind of subjective sort of blanket statement." His question was rooted in genuine curiosity and a need to know. "I find some costumes here VERY distracting for various reasons." He glanced around to find someone he could point at and Evan Nam...so Atlas pointed at that Ravenclaw. "I have minor bovinophobia."
Just saying.
Anyway, not to be entirely derailed from the actual lesson or anything.
Atlas personally found the very nature of Transfiguration 'creative'. You WERE creating something through magical modification and manipulation, so it seemed like the concept was engrained in the literal magical DNA, so to speak. So, well, he struggled with finding an answer to this next question as he found everything changed through spellwork to be rather creative.
"I've always thought switching spells were pretty neat," he offered with a small chirp. "You could pull off some pranks really well with that, switching an apple someone is about to bite into with something else...or switching your homework with your brother's because they switched yours that morning and you want to keep your hard work because you spent forever on the essay and it's not your fault that they didn't and are trying to take credit for something you did."
Hypothetically speaking.
