Do you always imbibe whatever is offered to you?"

Of course, of course. Fletcher the GlitterPuff Hufflejock Champion Made of Awesome had to attend Defense Against the Dark Arts. OF COURSE. How else was he supposed to survive the rest of the tournament, eh? REALLY, HOW?

Fletcher nodded again toward the Headmaster and took a deep sip of his hot chocolate. He was about to swallow when the man made him fear for his life with one sentence, and Fletcher promptly spat out his chocolate all over the floor.

"Pffffffffftooooooie," he choked, trying to wipe his tongue off on his sleeve. "Tate. Sir. Really." HOW COULD YOU POISON A CHAMPION?! And even if he hadn't poisoned it, HOW COULD YOU PRANK US LIKE THAT?

SPOILER!!: quotesssss

He glaaaared at the Headmaster as he continued asking questions and shifted in his seat, attempting to siphon up the spewed hot chocolate with his wand without being too much of a disturbance. Fletcher was successful, for the most part, though there was still a small dark puddle under the seat of whoever was sitting in front of him.

Oh welll. That wasn't too... suspicious-looking or anything.... noooo, not at all. And now that Fletcher was done making messes and cleaning them up, he could answer the most recent question!

"Fiendfyre, sir." The Hufflepuff grinned wickedly. "That could distract your enemy for a bit." Like... until they burned to crisp. Why not?

I didn't poison you, but I want to keep you on your toes. Just furthering the lesson on vigilance, which we covered in depth last time. I found your homework responses very enlightening." He rubbed the back of his head thoughtfully. "Last time, I asked you to consider the adage 'the best defense is a good offense.' Today's adage is 'think outside the box.' It's a very Muggle saying... not really sure what this box is they refer to, but does anyone know what it means?" Quote: Originally Posted by Cassirin "Yeah, it sounds like we have a consensus, or at least a generally shared perspective on what it means to 'think outside the box'. It means that there is often an obvious answer to a question, and then there are less obvious paths to equally viable answers. Thinking outside the box is about being creative and open-minded, and it's about being willing to look at every scenario as a blank sheet of paper, rather than as a tunnel, forcing you down the same path to the same answer." Hm. Rather poetic. He should write that down. "So how does this apply to Defense?" Quote: Originally Posted by Cassirin He turned back to the rest of the students.

"Let's give this a try. In the absolute strictest sense, I want you to list as many offensive and defensive spells as you can. One each so everyone has a chance. I don't want to hear spells that have other purposes, nor do I want you to do that thinking outside the box just yet. I just want to know those dueling spells we all use, that can ONLY be used in dueling."
