Anthony just nodded alongside. Parvati was more of a mystery to Anthony than Padma, he knew far less on how to approach her with things. But he still respected her, even though she was more difficult. "It's got every sense in it. See the words, hear the pages, smell the binding, touch the paper. Books... yeah they're a bit of alright."
Anthony nodded. It had been a challenge of course keeping the DA on one track but Neville seemed to be very capable this year. It was a pleasant surprise. But there was a hole in their ranks. The unofficial head of Ravenclaw for the group... where was she? "Poor Luna..." Anthony commented grimly, disassociated from the rest of the conversation. He shook his head and more firmly held Padma's arm as a sign of solidarity. "Sometimes I feel the conflict about being a Prefect... but then I realize I've been that for the whole time it's existed. I guess it's a road we just have to walk the middle of."
