Avalon blinked a few times at Professor Wilderness's response. He had just asked her to elaborate on her contribution, but she forgot what her original response was. How could she give an example when she forgot what the original question was even about? She stared down at her muddy shoes in frustration. This memory loss thing was getting more concerning by the day.

It wasn't until her classmates continued with their own responses that Avalon recalled what they were talking about. She realized that Professor Willpower wanted her to give an example of creatures that didn't adapt well to new environments. Like a polar bear, maybe. They probably couldn't survive in a desert. Or merpeople. They wouldn't do well out of water. But the Ravenclaw felt like it was too late to chime in again with her answer, so she kept quiet until class moved on.

She was about to offer up a response to the next question when she was cut off by the jarveys themselves. Avalon put her hand down, interested in what the creatures were saying. She peered into the cage curiously, but then she had forgotten Professor Willow's question again. Thankfully, the jarveys' yelps jogged her memory and gave her an idea of what to say. "They do speak, but it's difficult to have full conversations with them. Jarveys usually talk in short phrases." Kind of like how the one just screamed "can't touch this" and then skittered away.
