Anna knew that Professor Fergersnout's colorful personality and compassionate spirit did not mean that she was a pushover nor people pleasing sort of professor. Not afraid of students whispering less than nice things about her, Anna had never imagined that she would be on the receiving end of any of the harsher tones of the woman - especially in the event that she was on time to a lesson and had remembered to bring all her materials.
It was almost too much and she felt her eyes watering almost immediately but she was thankfully still in the middle of rubbing her face and poking at it to try and help her wake up so she was able to cover up the emotional slip. "N-N-No...um...professor...no...nothing of that sort," she promised, her posture now resembling someone who had been struck by Petrificus Totalus. Professor Fergersnout sure seemed in a right mood today and Anna hated that her behavior was contributing to it. "Sorry...professor...no...nothing of that sort," she repeated, seeming to shrink into her chair and hanging her head - which once again made her miss the presence of certain people who would very much bring comfort to her now even if just a brief meeting of the eyes.
SNIFFLE.
Anna was not unaccustomed to being scolded by professors and had full on slammed into a closed door in the dungeons that one time she had been late for Potions and it caused a WHOOOOOOOLE scene since Professor Hernandez had had to open the door to let her in and everything, but this moment in particular felt especially humiliating and lonely. So she was quiet, unsure if she even ought to answer this first question but deciding that she must if for no other reason than to erase the stigma off her and assure her Head of House that she was paying attention. "There is the Shacklebolt family," she offered. "A descendent from it currently plays professional quidditch, I think."
