Maybe she could see if there were any other single lady cats in the castle.

Just as Kurumi was about to take her leave, having handed over the jar, Professor Williamson UNSCREWED the lid and was allowing IT to crawl all over himself.

o_______________O

"B-B-Blast-Faced Skrebeetle?" Now that certainly didn't sound like anything Kurumi wanted to be around or have inside the castle. It must have wandered from the Forbidden Forest because...that seemed to be where EVERYTHING was released and kept. Hopefully this didn't mean that it was a crossbreed between a manticore and a dung beetle or anything. Here Kurumi had thought it was just some exotic spider.

Now it was definitely time to take her leave and exit the hut before the, um, thing decided to blast anything.

"I'm glad that it will be able to find it's, um, way home," she said as she slowly stood, picked up Walnut, and stepped back from the man and the small monster on his arm. "Thank you for your time, Professor Williamson."

And with that, Kurumi offered him a polite bow, waved to his cruppy, and scurried out of the hut, making sure the door was shut behind her so the creature couldn't escape...again...

Working with horses was something she'd mastered years ago to the point of having a part-time with them over the summer.

But thestrals and hippogriffs?

She'd only worked with them once or twice. And riding the former had been a bit difficult, but she'd managed. "Thanks, Professor. I think I will work with hippogriffs and thestrals more. I don't suppose you have any in the sanctuary?" A grin spread across her face and she gave Jack a light squeeze. Cutie pie.

"He's worked with all kinds, but right now it's mostly Norwegian Ridgebacks and Ukrainian Ironbellys in Romania, but.. he's looking to move closer to his home." Closer to his family. The prefect grew silent as the cat talk grew, content with snuggling Jack.

But then they have to leave... could she take Jack? Hehe. She stood with the cruppie, eyeing Kurumi's cat before looking back at the professor. Blast-Faced Skrebeetle?

Well he wasn't cute, but he did look far more interesting than in the pictures. She watched at Kurimi left and figured she should follow, "Yes, thanks for your time professor. And the advice." She gave the cruppie one more snuuuuugle before placing him down. "And for letting me play with Jack." Hehe

She gave the pup one more pat before wiggling her fingers at the professor and heading out, closing the door behind her.
