Granted, Cope was never going to attend a class he didn't put full effort into, but it was funny to consider that he HAD to do well in every single class to earn this apprenticeship.
Figures rose from the bowl on the desk and Copernicus went silent as he watched a small scene play out in front of them. It didn't really bother him that Truebridge was there. It was unlikely a professor would leave him alone with something as rare as a pensieve, and he'd been resigned to SOMEONE knowing his business. Might as well be the his favorite professor.
"Not necessarily. If you feel you are already up to scratch or if you prefer to study the extra subjects in your own time that would be fine. Besides, I did not mention Arithmancy, Muggle Studies or Divination, or those topics that you would need to study once you leave here." He pointed out, turning his head to eye the certificates proclaiming he'd received 12 OWLs and 9 NEWTs as well as a myriad other qualifications. As far as Ethan was concerned, the more subjects the better. Even specialising involved more than just the basics.
He ignored Copernicus and the pensieve, choosing to walk over to the tray and flick through the battered copy of pride and prejudice that the Ravenclaw had placed there.
