The man had had tears of joy in his eyes. "E-E-Exceptions are made sometimes by the Heads of House....t-t-the current Ravenclaw female prefect was also a forth year when she got her badge."

Her eyes widened at his next comments. If her cheeks had been burning before, they were causing an inferno on her face now. Pretty? Didn't matter that he was talking in future tense at the moment. She was still flustered. "I-I am rather young for my age I suppose. I just only just turned 14."

She listened intently as he explained his personal history a little. "Oh...I didn't mean to bring up a sensitive subject..." There she was, stick her small nose in other people's business. Although, he didn't seem too upset about it. "That...must have been hard..." Kurumi had never moved, not once in her life, despite the wish to do so.

"Well...if he doesn't like it in your pocket, you probably should let him out," she giggled.
Miss Red Badge was quickly morphing into Miss Red Cheeks. Her entire face was sliding past pink and going right into tomato shades, and Salariel was fascinated. He considered pointing it out, to see if she'd go even more red, but that might make her all annoyed... too early for that.

"I turned thirteen in early August," he announced proudly. No more preteen, childishness for him. Nope. He was a full-fledged teenager, well on his way to being a full-fledged adult. As he was sure people could tell.

He twitched a little before brushing off the idea that his being tutored was somehow troublesome to him. He'd only minded when they'd gone to an entirely different country; he was sure he hadn't caused that much trouble, that it should require staying in a different country with his parents. But whatever. He waved it off, physically flicking his hand in the air to make sure it was thoroughly banished.

"It wasn't too bad. I got Gemelli, and my tutor didn't keep me in 'class' all day so I could run around as much as I wanted. And I got to see my parents more than I would have, I guess."

She... wanted him to take Gemelli out of his pocket? He looked down at the bump and considered the idea. What if she freaked out? Girls usually didn't take well to creatures like him... but... well Gemelli was calm and trained to not misbehave...

Leaning back in the seat, Salariel slipped his hand into his pocket and gently scooped up Gemelli, settling the fluffy creature on his chest. The bat stretched his wings and gave them a few flaps before curling them back up again and crawling around the front of Salariel's shirt, searching for a dark place to hide. Salariel stroked his back gently in apology for the filtered sunlight.

"...meet Gemelli. Or Gem."

And please don't freak out, Miss Red Badge. Gemelli was already unhappy because he couldn't find his cave.
