SEEN ✱ WATCHING THE MOVIES (HARRY POTTER)

{32} LET'S TALK ABOUT THE CHAMBER

Professor McGonagall: [at Transfiguration class the next day] Could I have your attention, please?

The tension began to ease as everyone realized they were merely witnessing a normal class, rather than encountering a threat. And given their familiarity with Mia, Hermione, and Ron, it's highly likely that they anticipated the mention of the Chamber of Secrets.

Professor McGonagall: Right. Now, today, we will be transforming animals into water goblets. [Draco shrugs] Like so. [turns to a bird resting on a post to her right, tapping it with her wand as she speaks] One, two, three, Vera Verto. [a stream of magic emits from her wand, and the bird becomes a goblet; the other students express amazement]

The first years looked at the screen in awe, their faces lit up with curiosity and anticipation as they couldn't wait to learn more from their esteemed professors. Their eyes were wide with fascination, and whispers of excitement filled the room as they leaned in, eager to absorb every bit of knowledge being imparted.

McGonagall couldn't help but smile, a small, warm expression that softened her features as she observed her students' reactions. Seeing their enthusiasm and interest brought a sense of relief, knowing that even amidst the uncertain circumstances, her recorded lessons could still provide a semblance of normality and comfort for the young witches and wizards.

Professor McGonagall: Now it's your turn. Who would like to go first? [approaches Ron] Ah! Mr. Weasley. One, two, three, Vera Verto.
Ron: Ahem! [silently taps his wand towards Scabbers three times] Vera Verto. [his wand causes Scabbers to turn into a furry goblet with his tail moving around while squeaking; Mia and some of the other students grin and laugh]

Some of the students couldn't help but let out chuckles and amused smirks at Ron's on-screen misfortune.

"It's not funny," Ron stated, a hint of defensiveness in his voice.

"Come on, it's kind of funny," Mia replied with a playful giggle, meeting Ron's gaze before he couldn't help but chuckle along with her. "I mean, If the thing that happened in the end didn't really happen, I would feel bad for you, but because it did, I definitely find it funny,"

"Now I really want to know what happened!" one student piped up.

"Yeah, what really happened?" another added eagerly.

"You'll see," Mia assured them with a mischievous glint in her eyes, leaving the rest of the students eagerly anticipating the upcoming revelation.

Professor McGonagall: [as Ron picks up the Scabbers-goblet] That wand needs replacing, Mr. Weasley. [Hermione raises her hand] Yes, Ms. Granger?
Hermione: Professor, I was wondering if you could tell us about the Chamber of Secrets.

The Great Hall was suddenly even more focused on the screen, with even those who had heard about the legend of the Chamber of Secrets completely invested in listening.
