"That'll do it, Mandrakes and all," Professor Sprout concludes. She tucks a stray lock of hair behind her ear and grins at him ( Read more... )

Charlie wonders if there was something in the food at lunch.

"So, Zabini. Remind the group what problems chizpurfle cause and explain why we'd want to clear them out of the owlery and the ferret pens."

Longbottom glances anxiously at the instructions he's holding and shifts his weight from one foot to the other.

Blaise picks at his fingernails and ignores the Weasley until he's forced to repeat the question, a note of irritation entering his voice.

"You may want to clear them out of the owlery, Sir; I, however, have no desire to do any such thing."

The Gryffindor girl giggles into her sleeve and Blaise looks faintly smug, before he remembers that he vowed never to show emotion in public again. Their professor glowers - his complexion clashes horribly with his hair - and beckons Blaise closer.

Zabini comes forward, looking well pleased with himself.

"Sir?" He asks as he crowds up conspiratorially close to Charlie -- far closer than any student other than a Slytherin seventh year would presume to get.

Charlie looks at him.

"Desire," he says, "is another topic altogether. Perhaps you misread your timetable." Charlie smacks the boy lightly in the chest with the pair of gloves he's been holding. "Here."

As soon as the boy grasps them, the gloves open, and then in one sinuous, curling movement, they wrap themselves around him, lacing themselves right up his arm. Charlie pats him on the back. "You'll be needing those."

"Now, about the chizpurfle," he says. "Longbottom. Can you tell me why they're such a nuisance?"

Lowering at the professor from under his (considerable) eyebrows, Blaise sticks out a foot as Longbottom steps forward to answer. Longbottom goes flying and lands in a thistle. It's childish, he knows, but it makes Blaise feel great.

Lavender Brown shrieks as Neville goes flying. For her part, Su Li shoots Zabini a quick, glance and then looks appraisingly at Charlie.

He's about to ask if Longbottom's okay, but he's already scrambling to his feet, so Charlie settles for giving Zabini detention. Ten points from Slytherin.

"... and I'll let Professor Snape know that you'll be joining me for detention as soon as the Headmaster concludes his remarks at the end of the Feast."

Longbottom clears his throat; he's still got a bit of thistle in his hair, but he sounds all right.

"Shall we try again with the chizpurfle?" Charlie asks him.
