Sometimes she talks to us like we're all utterly thick, and it looked like it was painful for her to give us House points while we were talking about things in class the other day. She likes to call on people at random, so there's no keeping my head down.

I wonder how much patience she'll have for the Theoretical students, as we won't be used to that side of things. I suppose we'll find out. For now, it's not too far from what we were doing before. We'll see.

I really don't care for Marwick, though. He kept looking over at me during the first lecture, like I was some sort of specimen on display, and said we'd spend at least a month covering the rise of the Protectorate, because that's his specialty.
