Minerva McGonagall and the Chamber of Secrets

Untitled Part 26

There he went... A bit Nervously... he opened it with his hands, smiling.

It wasn't a book, it was the 100 fun science experiments for muggle kids kit.

Ohh. He smiled.

Do you know that he is in his sixty's not six's, don't you?

Yes, but...

"Ohh! Fun experiments!"

Don't worry, it seems that Minerva knows it either...

"What the fuck?" That was Moody.

"Look, Alastor! Is a book of experiments!"

"It is not a book!" Minerva complained "It's a game!"

"Interesting experiments!" It doesn't say interesting, dear.

"A game?" Filius went to look too.

"So you experiment and play at the same time?" Asked Albus.

"Albus, that's a kids game" laughed Frank a bit.

"Yes... well, it's an educational game it's just based on the experiments." Minerva explained.

"Fun experiments." Dumbledore read again.

"Exactly. Fun or... surprising, sometimes"

"As if you all weren't kids! I like it very much! I'm going to test it tonight"

Minerva smiled, and Moody and Filius were looking like "really?" Moody though that he just said it because it was polite and Filius though that he was crazy.

"I think it is interesting to see experiments from the muggle point of view... it is like Alchemy."

"Why like alchemy?"

"Alchemy is the mother of what muggles call now the modern chemistry. I hope some of the experiments are of chemistry!" He assured, merrily.

"Really?"

"Well of course! Why are you all so impressed"

"Well... Because someone could think that the wizards chemistry is like potions."

"Ohh... well..." he laughed. "Yes and no"

"Why not?"

"Because Alchemy and Chemistry are both much more... theoretical. Potions is more like... with all due respect... " he looked at Moody and smiled. You don't love potions, that's the problem... "Well... less theoretical"

Moody rolled eyes.

"Transfigurations are also less theoretical" he answered.

"That is not true"

"Excuse me?" That was Minerva at the same time.

"I think potions is theoretical..." added softly Poppy, who liked potions very much too.

"All have theory and practice part." Moody said that.

"I know, I just think Potions could benefit of the Alchemy... and Horace doesn't think it is that important"

"Because he has a lot to explain without touch alchemy" Moody added.

"You, more than any of your classmates, should know this!"

"I know that we should study Alchemy as an individual subject."

"Don't touch me that nerve, you know it is the Ministry's fault!"

Moody laughed.

"I'D LOVE to have Alchemy in the study plan."

"Maybe if we have another Ministry" said Minerva. Albus laughed.
