Winston tried to keep his face smooth when he heard that she was excited for Care of Magical Creatures. Animals smelled. And he was certain that the students in that class would have to clean up poo and mud. Yuck.
"Transifiguration does sound a bit exciting," Winston admitted. "Though I never quite understood the point." Really, was there a point? Why would you bother to turn a pumpkin into a stool? It was a waste of a perfectly good pumpkin, in Winston's opinion. "Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for Potions! It's very useful, and it takes great skill, and patience, and measuring. It gets you familiar with ingredients..... It sounds wonderful! It's just my friend said an interesting thing about the professor...." Professor Dragon Lady, that is. "Well.... I heard she's not too nice." She smiled shyly, hoping he could forgive her.
Elyon saw him frown a bit when she mentioned Care of Magical Creatures. "What's wrong? Don't you like animals?" She really didn't care whether he did or not, she just wanted to see why he didn't seem to like them. "I love animals! It's one of my passions, to help nurse the sick and wounded ones back to health. I volunteered at a muggle animal shelter back home." She shrugged and smiled remembering how she found her kitty, Chunk.
"Transfiguration could be really useful too! I guess we'll learn as we go along, won't we?" She smiled, imagining herself using all sorts of crazy magic, getting into all sorts of shananigans. She figured she and Winston were pretty different, but thought they'd still be good friends. |
