DADA for Muggles [Wednesday, December 2, 5th period]
In the center of the room, surrounded by random tiny pine trees was a small green creature in a cage, looking very, very cranky.
But then, so was Sirius. He'd gotten bit the night before as they'd been capturing the gremlin for class and had spent a very uncomfortable hour singing about a cake he'd left out in the rain (and he'd never have that recipe again, oh no). "This is a gremlin," he said, pointing with his wand.
Remus was in much, much better spirits today. Mostly because he'd told Sirius to wear gloves, but had he listened? Nooo. So Remus got to laugh at that terrible, terrible song. "I understand that some of you may have already had some experience with these lovely creatures. While they aren't exactly dark creatures, they certainly are irritating, aren't they?"
"Yes," Sirius answered sulkily for them. "Please share any experiences you've had with these...things...and then feel free to come closer and examine it. If you get bitten, I will laugh."
Because Sirius was all about nurturing the students.
"And there are gloves," Remus added, gesturing to the box. "Should you choose to employ them." He looked sidelong at Sirius, smirking slightly.
"Thank you, Moony," Sirius replied, glaring back.
