studying (grace/annie)

[LEO RUTHERFORD]

Leo was always happy to study with other people, mostly because it was so boring to do it alone. When he had discussed with a fellow student, Grace Weasley, about how difficult some of the classes were, he had suggested studying together. Even if they were in different years, Leo did need to brush up on some of his spells.

"We could do a fifth year spell, if you want." Leo suggested, "The bubble-head charm, maybe? Or a shrinking charm..." There were a lot of options, and Leo was familiar with most of them, but not all of them. "We could do something more adventurous if you want to. Maybe see if there's a boggart hiding somewhere?"

The last part was a bit of a joke. Leo had never been good at DADA, so he was also not good at finding creatures hiding in the castle. But he was pretty open to moving around if it suited their studying needs.

GRACE WEASLEY

[GRACE WEASLEY]

Grace knew she needed someone to help keep her grounded, keep herself focused on studies, given recent events. That's why she elected to study with someone impartial to her family, to avoid the questions about Rose's petrification. Leo's timing was marvelous when it came to it, considering Grace's ever declining grades. She tried to take the situation with a bit of light, and did her best possible to remain her usual optimistic self.

"A fifth year spell? Well... I would be curious to try one out." After all, it wasn't the spell work that she struggled with, it was the writing material. Books bored her. "The Bubble Head Charm sounds good. I could cast it on my twin brother whenever he annoys me. What'd you think it'd do to a Boggart?" The idea entertained her enough to temporarily get out of her head about everything.
