Well, tea with Professor Brutka was interesting. And his office is totally wizard!


But, yeah. Malfoy. You'd better keep totally out of my road tomorrow. You and your lousy gob. Dean Thomas is loads better than you can ever hope to be.

What was Professor Brutka like? Did he seem like someone who'd like students who were interested in the Forbid magical creatures instead of thinking there was something suspicious about it?

[alt_neville]

He seemed all right, I guess. There were a couple of students who came in with questions and such while we were there, and he answered 'em all without grumbling at 'em the way Macnair used to do sometimes. Keeps a glass jar full of chocolate frogs, on his desk. (Ron sicced up some slugs on it, and that was funny--slugs crawling on the outside of the jar, and that got the frogs excited so they were hopping around like mad inside.)

He has a bit of an accent--French, I guess--but it's easier to understand him than I was afraid it would be.

Oh ugh, the poor chocolate frogs.

I'm glad he's not too hard to understand, if you couldn't understand your teacher it would be hard to learn much, you know? And I do want to take Care of Magical Creatures. Do you know yet what you'll take next year?

[alt_neville]

I dunno. We have a whole year to decide, after all.

I'm just trying to live through Transfiguration this year.

Pity I can't drop it next year. I mean, I know it's important and all, but--yeah.

Anyway, I bet Professor Brutka's a decent enough teacher. Just had that feeling about him.

[alt_sally_anne]

It is a pity you can't drop it, I mean I don't see what you're getting out of it now. No offense or anything.

[alt_neville]

No offence taken, believe me.
