Following his gaze to the bookcase, Dom blinked as he recalled his own lessons and their harshness. Wondering vaguely how bad Truebridge could possibly have been as a student, Dom also decided that now wasn't really the time to go into those details.

Fitting the punishment? The crime? The culprit? Truebridge spoke as if he was some old muggle forensic TV series. Oh crap. The fifth year swallowed hard again, staring unblinkingly at the professor. Terms of the sonnet sharing?

Though he really doubted that Truebridge would tell of his squealing about them to Kaz, but for some reason having someone else in the room - even if it was hyperactive Cela - made him uneasy.

So he went with divulging parts of the terms, since he couldn't bring himself to utter the rest. "Well I cannot really divulge the terms of the sonnet sharing," the Hufflepuff began. "But I will say that I was simply supposed to inform my listeners of this poem to share with them, and out of respect of their time, to allow them the chance to listen or decline."
"I suspected as much. That is usually how it goes with these things." Ethan nodded, "I expect he intended you to do so to show you have learned respect. It sounds like you have done just that. And more than that, this sonnet is very good. You have put alot of thought into that, so perhaps you can transfer that lesson to areas in your life where you perhaps are not putting in enough effort? Just a suggestion mind you, not a directive." Zan held up one finger and almost smiled.

He cleared his throat and looked at the note he was writing for Iliana and began adding something else. "It may be worthwhile to start looking for lessons; not to share with Professor Kr...Kazimeriz necessarily, more for yourself? Might as well get something out of it right?"
