I'm finished. Sucking up.. yeah.
Oh crap. Now should he lie here and pretend he hadn't seen the woman, or tell her the truth? More scratching of his neck. I.. um.. Just LIE, idiot!boy!
I'm not trying to be disrespectful, professor. I think you're a brilliant teacher. I've said it before that potions is one of the few classes I actually LEARN anything in. Your strict methods demand it. ...But they also make you seem.. sort of.. *gulp* unapproachable...?
Um..
Was that lying!?
o.O
NO! NO IT BLOODY WASN'T!!!
He gave the scary lady an awkward, apologetic smile. He HAD complimented her too, right? She was a great professor.. but she scared the boy. Simple as. He wasn't deliberately trying to be rude.
I apologise if I seemed rude. It wont happen again. He looked around at the group surrounding the professor and smiled. Hey everyone. He was tempted to bow like the clown he was.. but didn't - thankfully. His brain wasn't THAT dmaged.
He was about to sit when Cam dragged him into the chair which he flopped into rather ungratiously. He gave her a look, his lip slowly curling upwards into a sneer as she started on about him wanting to be a.. 'Potioneer.'
Snicker. But Lafay was having none of it. Wise woman. Wise scary woman. He smirked at Cam then turned his attention back to hedge watching.
Well wasn't this as much fun as you could shake a stick at? [/sarcasm]
She sighed. "I am not unapproachable. I'm here. You approached me, did I turn you into potion ingredients for my next class? No. You haven't as much as lost a point. There are little first year hufflepuffs who know to greet me." She said glaring at him, "and I expect YOU, as Head Boy, to set the example."
There she said it. "Now... Is it true you have an interest in potions?"

Honestly? Potion person. Potioneer. She scowled as she was corrected. Same difference.
"I'm not doing anything, Professor. I'm sitting, remember? What you ordered me to do. Right? Chyeah." Evil!Woman.
Scccccowwwwwwwwwlllllll.
"Miss Caddock, wipe that scowl off your face right now or I'll call your head of house and show her your disrespectful attitude. Being brave does not exempt you from being rude. Speak to me in that manner one more time and not only will YOUR house lose points, but you will attone for it in detention.

She nodded as the quote-unquote invitation to sit was repeated, then took a seat one away from the professor. On the opposite side of where Cam had been before she'd gone to get the Head Boy. No need to cause an issue with seats, and she wanted to think those were reserved. But she turned to look at the professor again as she expressed concern over the view. At least, she thought it was concern. "I think it's as good as possible. We can't really see much more than the entrance of the maze anyway," she said, returning her attention to that as she spoke. At least, that was all she could see. For all she knew the professor could see through the hedges. Which was slightly scary, yet cool. Any way to know what was going on in there.
"Who are you rooting for Miss Kelly," she said trying to make conversation with the girl.
Unapproachable my bum!
