It's absolutely disgusting. My mum warned me of people like him, but I didn't want to believe it." Rafe just didn't understand it. In a way he was mad at his mum. She didn't really prepare him, his whole life he was surrounded by open people, it wasn't until he came to Hogwarts that he experienced such ignorance.
"'Someone like the professor?' By which you mean a learned professional woman, I presume?" his smirk showed that he knew
exactly what Rafe was referring to.
"You will of course run across people with prejudices, even in our world this is true. It is only natural; people fear what is different, and what they do not understand. You must learn to approach these people with patience, for when you show a display of aggression or temper you are only validating their low expectations of you."
He turned and went to the staircase, slowly heading down to the third floor corridor.
ooc- shall we continue on the third floor corridor?
