 Which came first, the phoenix or the flame?
Phoebe wiggled her fingers back at Ary. "I like your paperclip thingy, even though I can't see it properly enough to know what it is," she whispered loudly, before turning her head back to the front of the class.
No hats AND no jackets? Darn. "Oh-kay." Sighing, Phoebe removed her hat, and unzipped her brother's jacket. Only because mrprofessordadcarton called her Miss Calypso and not Miss Dupont. But did she reeeeeally have to take the whole jacket off? She sort of did, too scared of professors in general to argue, but then she put it over her lap like a small blanket. That way she was following the rules, but she still got to be warm and comfy and safe!
She fidgeted with the soft lining of the jacket in her lap, squinting at the figure. "Um... um, it looks like Medusa, or... a gorgon, like Ary said! I guess gorgons are the creature and Medusa is just one lady. Gorgons have poisonous snake hair!" Phoebe thought that was cool!!! But then her mind went down a path of snakes and Slytherins and girls named Phoebe and she found herself playing with her hair, frowning deeply and forgetting to pay attention. "Nobody can turn me into a gorgon, right? Professor Carton?" Phoebe was STRESSED ABOUT THIS. |
