"I AM the boss. I HAVE earned that RIGHT! I AM LORD BORR AND YOU ARE just the .. the .. THE WHAT did you call yourself? BIG HEAD? WELL I disagree. YOU have a little HEAD. Now, I believe I TOLD YOU to sit down."

"AND YOU PIGS would DO GOOD to listen to LITTLE HEAD, there!" Lord Borr pointed his cane at LITTLE HEAD and then turned back to the board.


"WHEN I was your AGE I knew exactly what I wanted to be when I grew up. I HAD HOPES. I had DREAMS. And look at me today. REALLY, each of you, TAKE A LOOK at ME." Lord Borr waddled across the room so that ALL sides of the class could SEE him.

"ONE AT A TIME, I want you to STAND UP. BOW TO ME. Introduce yourself. Then tell me what it is you wish to be when YOU GROW UP. Assuming you EVER do." Lord Borr was SO TIRED. He was WORKING SO HARD to HELP these STUDENTS. SOOOOOOO HARRRRRRRRRD. He moved into his chair at the front of the desk and sat down, causing something similar to a weak earthquake in the classroom.

"GO ON. I dont HAVE ALL DAY. 1. STAND UP. 2. BOW. 3. NAME YOURSELF. 4. YOUR AMBITION. GO GO GO GO."
His introduction was NOT long and boring, but clearly this Lord Borr had no sense of style or even appreciation for others of importance. No, his head was too big to fit that in... He did greet the Professor and introduce himself, but frankly, Dominic Denton did not care if Berty Borr were to fail him. It wasn't like his future depended on the subject of Astronomy anyway. Sure he liked the subject, but there were other subjects that he was just as good in. And besides, from the looks of things, it didn't seem like he'd be learning a whole lot on Astronomy this term anyway . . .

But at least he got to sit, because the sixteen year old had looked over at the girl who was told to stand for the lesson. Willow. Poor Willow. Granted she didn't greet him at all, but that was her arrogance; something he admired about the Ravenclaw Captain.

Sighing, the Head Boy was about to take a seat when he was confronted about doing HIS job to handle the students acting like pigs. What?! Big Head? Merlin... the only one with a big head around these quarters seemed to be him, Lord Berty Borr. Of course he didn't have a little head either, but ugh. Apparently this Borr was too big headed to pay attention to small details.

Which is why when he asked them to stand up and bow to him and introduce themselves, Dominic doubted the man would even CARE. No, Borr would not care and Dominic was tempted right now to walk out of the classroom. He could. Even if he did get an 'O' on his Astronomy OWL, like he considered, he didn't need the subject.

And he wasn't going to bow. Nope siree. Not after Borr couldn't take any consideration in getting his position correct.

Taking a seat near the door in the middle, he waited to see if they would actually be having a lesson today. Or just getting their morales lowered. Dominic was betting on the latter.
