A full auror was here to judge them! Abraxas grinned as he faced off against Thompsett—this was so much better than boring old Professor Darrow. It did beg the question, however: should the Hufflepuff stick to what he knew worked, or would showing off a little be in order?

Opting for the latter, Rex cast a spell that, if successful, would dramatically elongate the Gryffindor's nose. Hopefully, the lad thought, this would be distracting enough that Thompsett would be altogether thrown off.
