"Wait, so I'm not supposed to uproot the thing?" Mayumi blinks, they were discussing their herbology homework in his room, and in his entire life, Harry had never felt so tired.
"No. Mayumi, you aren't supposed to uproot anything." He said with exasperation, "Is that why everything just dies around you? That mandrake didn't even scream when you pulled it out."
Mayumi blinks.
"Oh, is that because I banged it on the table a little too hard?" She tilted her head, "That didn't make it shut up though, so I just strangled the thing."
Harry sighs.
