[It's well into the middle of the night and the weekend besides, most people are happily in their House bunks and teachers are off as teachers do. One 3rd year Ravenclaw is rummaging through the potions cabinets looking for that one last ingredient...]

Fireasp venom, there it is.

[Yeah, this is one of those startled, cast first, think about it later sort of spells]

Colloportus!

[And sealing the way back out]

Dealing with a rat, apparently. [Carefully wrapping up the ingredient he was here for to start with. No way of backing down now.] What kind of guarantees do I have that you're not going to just run off to one of the teachers the moment that door's open?

You can't keep me here...I. I won't tell.

Experimentation. Why else would I? Classes don't nearly cover all of the applications...

[It's sort of hell knowing that there exists curses and compulsions for just this type of situation and no idea how to cast them, unbreakable vows, contract jinxes... imperio... crucio... mmm crucio.]

Looks like we'll have to do this the mundane way. Hold out your hand.

..t-that was. I didn't mean to do that! I didn't think everyone would think that was such a big deal! I didn't KNOW...

Or the time you didn't with the scroll swap...

[Leveling his wand at you] Hand out, or I'm starting with Incendio.

[After he gets a good grip on your wrist, swaps his wand for a stopped vial. Is very, very carefully flipping off the cap.]

So... you know yourself better than anyone else. How far do I have to go for you to learn this clearly?
