As Noah gratefully took the pair of goggles, he eyed the plant-thing-monster thing. He made a face at it, though straightened up as Lily began to explain, noticing her notes. She had really cute handwriting, neat and bubbly. It was a lot, too; the details and extra stuff she wrote showed that she really had a passion for Herbology, or at least, that she liked plants. Not that Noah was one to judge. Honestly, that was probably the only thing that hadn't amazed him when he first came to Hogwarts, but his first experience with a Mandrake soiled his opinion, and it only soured further as he discovered the many, [i]many[/i] other violent, vicious plantlife. Plants were supposed to sit there and look nice, not walk around or make loud noises or whatever! He let out a slight huff if disapproval, and noticed much too late that he had missed a majority of Lily's explanation. Great, there she was going out of her way to help him and he was completely spaced out. Maybe this was why he had so much trouble in school. Which was weird, he was usually good at paying attention...except when he was bored. Snapping back to attention, he let out a small yelp as the plant-thing (shit, what was it called again?) wrapped itself around his hand. It was super weird, Noah grimacing down at it, though as he lifted his gaze he noticed Lily's rather content look. If only he had paid attention and knew what she was saying. He watched her try to pry the plant off of him, though once again he caught several guys staring at him. The fuck were they looking at him for?! Throwing a few of the more vicious glares back, he let out a small sigh. "[color=crimson]I do have a habit of attracting trouble for some reason,[/color]" He admitted in response to Lily's statement, watching her for a moment. She was very careful to pull the vine off, whereas he had the urge to wiggle his hand and run around screaming. But he would remain clam, grinning once he was free of that dumb thing's grasp. He stuck his tongue out at him and got out his own notebook, deciding to scribble down an abridged version of Lily's notes. It wasn't that he was lazy on his note taking, but he just liked to get to the point of things. Her explanation was really, really good, though, he understood everything she wrote. If only she was the one teaching, then maybe he could-- In that moment, a ton of bricks seemed to smack him in realization, causing him to let out a yell of excitement. His eyes brightened immensely as he put his pen down. That's it! The heavens had sent him a sign and this was it! Taking Lily's hand in his without thinking, he grasped it with both hands, his face practically beaming. "[color=crimson]You're exactly what I need![/color]" He exclaimed cheerfully, and despite the number of glares increasing, he was able to ignore them for the moment, though he vaguely heard Chloe snickering. "[color=crimson]You can help me out with this class![/color]" [center][color=#FF0000]______________________________________[/color] [color=#FFFFFF]★[/color] [color=#FFD4D4]☆[/color] [color=#FFAAAA]★[/color] [color=#FF7F7F]☆[/color] [color=#FF5555]★[/color] [color=#FF2A2A]☆[/color] [color=#FF0000]★[/color] [color=#FF2A2A]☆[/color] [color=#FF5555]★[/color] [color=#FF7F7F]☆[/color] [color=#FFAAAA]★[/color] [color=#FFD4D4]☆[/color] [color=#FFFFFF]★[/color] [color=#FF0000]______________________________________[/color][/center]
