Theodore didn't so much as blink when his bear buddy started growing fingers or when the assignment was announced. He hexed them off one by one (the thumbs took a little more time than the others), then swept them into a small pile with his wand. He was close to being finished about halfway through the class when he saw Pansy and Regina start walking around to help the other students. With only an index finger and a thumb left to go, Theodore slowed down, leaving shallow cuts on the remaining fingers but not quite cutting through them. He looked very focused on the assignment, but did the opposite of whatever Pansy or Regina told him to do if they tried to help him. He completed the assignment with fifteen minutes left to class.
