No, he knew, but just thinking the words made him blush.
Anna giggled when Cope commented her little fake-shock face, then quietened to hear the plan he'd apparently come up with. Oh...
no. A potion? She'd never even been in a Potions class with Cope, so she had no idea whether he was brilliant at the subject or just plain rotten. What if he accidentally caused her to sprout extra ears or something weird like that? "Cope, you...
are good with Potions, right? I mean, you
do know what you're doing, right? If you won't be there when my hair changes, how will you know it---." She stopped when he abruptly hugged her. She guessed he felt he had to or something. He
was asking a lot of her. She gave in and hugged him in return. "Well, I suppose if I can save you from the likes of Lupa, then I've done my job, huh? Maybe you can even take a wizarding photo of me, so I can mail it to my father. My mother will hate it, though," she said, with a laugh.
