And not even having the decency to come up with an excuse, how ridiculous it would have been. Pfft.

Why the heck didn't she trust him that the thing was called a telephone and not a teff-alone, or whatever she wanted to call it?! Okay, this was Destiny here, so no need to answer that question. "No, it's te-le-phone." He pointed out every syllable of the word on the board as if talking to a five-year-old. "It doesn't have anything to do with grass or being alone." Because teff was some kind of grass, right? He might have to ask the Herbology professor about this one...

"No, you can't." Jeremy shook his head at her answer. Well, at least she had gotten the 'hold to your ear' part right. Destiny probably could have come up with something different there too...like sticking it up your nose and then you can smell the other person or something. So he should probably be glad that she at least had it semi-right. "You can HEAR the person you called. It's like..." Yes, what was it like? "Do you know what a walkie-talkie is?" Probably not, but it was worth a try.

Turning back to the rest of the class, he smiled at the many people who had answered correctly. "Yes, absolutely correct. This whole part of the telephone is called the handset, whereas the upper part-" He gestured towards the part not directly connected to the cable-thingie. "-is called the earphone where you can then hear the other person you are talking to." Yes, hear, not see. "The other side is called the microphone and is the part where you speak into so the person you are calling can hear you." More or less.

He reached behind him to pick up the iPhone lying on the table and held it up for the class to see. "Now, last question before Professor Hadley will continue with the lesson." Jeremy directed a grin at Fina before turning back to the class. "Where is the handset in this mobile phone?" Was this a trick question? Maybe.
