She would have to leave ignorance behind and embark on a life of knowing. It was not going to be easy.
She felt the cover under her cool finger tips and tried to soak in the sensations. It would be the last string to her niavity of the world she was about to enter. As soon as the first page was wrinkled Selina would be a different person. But she could not control this change. It seemed fated that this would be the course of her life.
Her glass, blue eyes looked up at Bishop and she smiled. The first true genuine smile she had been afforded in days. "Thank you, Professor. This isn't going to easy, but thanks for making the burden a little lighter."
She turned to leave, but turned around and asked one final question, "If I need any help... can I come here?" Selina found comfort in Bishop. Something was sweet and warm about her face that made Selina feel more at peace with her ability. It was a nice escape from the chaos of her ability. As she'd returned to where Miss Skylar had been standing, Renée kept her eyes on the girl. Not out of any sense of suspicion, but just as a way of keeping tabs on the girl's nerves. The Gryffindor was so young, and taking on such a topic was a lot. Her own discovery while she'd been young was one thing, this had more importance, in a way. It wasn't a parlor trick or anything, not something that could be used for amusement. The thoughts going through the girl's head were promising, though. At least it was a good start, and it seemed they'd broken through the fear a bit She might not be able to do much, but at least she could reassure her. Research went over better on a clear head.
The smile she'd been given once Selina had looked up at her was another good sign, and she smiled back. "You're welcome. You're right, as well. It won't be easy, but I'll always try to help where I can. And if not, we can always try and find someone who can help more," she replied, letting the girl fully take the books with the unspoken reminder that they were borrowed. She didn't think their return would be too difficult, however. The Gryffindor seemed trustworthy enough to respect belongings. "I'm always here for you, and any of the students. No matter the reasons," she added, as Selina headed for the door. "Until next time. Class, if not before, and good luck," she concluded, returning to her desk as she sent one last smile to the girl. Things seemed to be on the right track, at least in this case. There were others that still needed contemplation.
