No, don't be silly, Dux. I shall be quite all right.
He's just disconcerting, that's all. I was right, he's the type who'll use any argument he thinks expedient just to make a point. It's got me twisted round, what?
It's curious, though. He talked about God. I know Patil's talked about her religion a bit and I know that there are some people who go to church, but he sounded like he's actually studied theology. It--I thought it had to be a trick, what?
That's what was bothering me, I see it now. I thought that he must have been trying to trick me into showing myself something other than loyal, other than a model citizen of the Protectorate.
Well, that and, as I said, that he was most intent on convincing me that I'd be excellent at the Dark Arts.
After this afternoon's lesson, that's jolly well unwelcome to hear, what?
