Re: Private message to Poppy Pomfrey

It's so like Stint to seize the spotlight, but to completely overthrow both the schedule and the topic for the session--that was beyond arrogant.

It was rich, though, when he finally persuaded Mr Marvolo to let him examine his shoulder and found no scarring at all after carrying on and on about how it requires the highest expertise to manage shoulder wounds and how ticklish it is to heal dragon injuries, especially.

And then didn't he talked himself in gyrations when there was only that feathery line of newly healed skin! Then it was 'how fortunate that it was the tail spikes and not the claws' and 'how exceedingly lucky he'd only been grazed and not impaled'.

He was just digging in with how the boy could expect to suffer residual pain when using magic and how his range of motion might be permanently impaired when Healer Mytens made it clear she had her own presentation to make and he could take his fascination with Mr Marvolo's injury out into the corridor if he wished to pursue his inquiries with the boy.

I thought the session with Mr Finnigan was excellent. I do wonder if that was merely fortuitous or whether Grandin talked the boy into allowing himself to be hexed in order to have such a vivid injury for demonstrating primary, secondary, and tertiary treatments.
