Also I figured I would come and let you know if there is anything I could ever help you with please let me know. I love to help out with thing."
Returning the girl's smile, Waylon made his way over to one of the sofa's and sat on the arm of it. No matter how many students visited him, he always found it amusing that the first thing they would do was go right over to Biscuit. Biscuit didn't mind one bit, and it was obvious as her tail began to quickly wag back and forth.
Waylon chuckled as he watched the puppy and nodded his head towards Minerva at her greeting. He would try his best to remember that name.
"It's nice to meet you, Minerva."
Even more so when she offered to help him.
But did he need help with anything? Hmm.. Eyebrows raising, he thought for moment before..
"Actually." he drawled, standing from the sofa and moving towards the window that overlooked the vegetable patch.
"How good are your gardening skills?" SPOILER!!: Daichi, Thea annnnd Kurumi!

Daichi couldn't really imagine Scabior or Lafay with a dog though.hmm...
Turning his attention towards the Groundskeeper just as he sat back down on the sofa, he fumbled a bit with his fingers. He was a bit nervous, and it wasn't an everyday question..not to mention he was scared that Kurumi had been wrong and the man WOULD laugh! He gave Thea one last look before he inhaled deeply and let the air go. "I...well, i was wondering if.. if ICouldHaveADucky... i mean, if i could help taking care of the ducks in the pond...i-i uh..like them and.. can i have one? ..all of them? or take care of them or..." Not finishing his absolutely weird sentences , the Slytherin looked round at the two others inside the room with a clear look of HELP ME HERE! written on his flushed face.

'Like to help you look after the ducks at the duck pond. Daichi likes ducks. A lot.' Glancing at Daichi, the Gryffindor sighed. 'That's all rerally..' Thea bit her lip, beginning to feel a bit awkward. She didn't know why, this Groundskeeper seemed alright! Smiling slightly, she looked at Daichi again and raised her eyebrows.
'Also, I would be happy to help. I mean.. incase Daichi fell in the pond or something?' Thea shrugged her shoulders, and wrinkled her nose. 'But I'd let Daichi do it all.. I'd only be supervising.' No way was she touching a duck. Especially after their encounter with lovely Squishy...
'Oh.. and my name's Thea.' Just incase she'd forgotten to mention that....

Oh, right. She wasn't here just to play with the doggie. Kurumi stood up and walked over to the sofas he had indicated for them to sit in when they had entered and took a seat while she listened to Daichi and Thea speak....erm...ramble as the case was really.
Kurumi just sat back and listened, not wanting to make the situation more complicated or anything. She could help clarify things if needed though.
Eeesh!
Was it just him or did anyone else get the impression that Daichi seemed to be just a tad bit nervous? Waylon didn't understand why the boy would be nervous, it wasn't like he was some scary guy! Wait.. was he some scary guy? No, no of course not. Not scary at all. Scary guys wouldn't have lovely dogs, as Kurumi had called Biscuit. Smiling, though, trying to ease the boy's nerves, Waylon brought his arms up and placed his hands behind his head as he relaxed on the sofa even more. See, scary guys don't relax.
His full attention was on Daichi as he began to speak, but the more he did, the more Waylon stole glances at Thea and Kurumi. Why, he wasn't quite sure, but they must have known about his.. wanting a duck? No, wanting all the ducks? .. wanting to take care of the ducks?
Huh?
"You just want to take care of the ducks?" he asked Daichi after Thea piped up and explained. Yes, he heard them both say that, but he was just a wee little bit concerned over the whole 'CanIHaveADucky' comment.
"Do you know how to take care of ducks?" The question was directed to all three of them, even if Kurumi was being quiet.
Seriously. He was not scary!
