Text Cut: Nessie

Well, OBVIOUSLY it still deserved a name. Lewis couldn't help but frown at her slightly, seeing as her words came across as a little reproachful. He had never said it didn't. He just hadn't been sure they were allowed to. "I don't know." Duh. That's what they had been trying to find out. How to determine a Pygmy Puff's gender.

"But Cuddles sounds fine. It's a quite...unisex name." He nodded slowly before scooping up the yellow Pygmy Puff and holding it up. "Hullo Cuddles!" He said pursing his lips, using a voice which was normally reserved for talking to toddlers. But the little furball was just so cute! He even held right under Renesmee's nose for her to say hi to it too. Because you know, she had come up with the name and all. She was like its godmother now.

Raising his eyebrows at her, Lewis was still a little taken aback by how protective she seemed to be of her Pygmy Puff. "Yeah, I got that." Had she honestly thought that he was going to snatch him up and lock him up in a cage with a couple of other Pygmy Puffs. No, he wouldn't do that. He wasn't allowed to after all. His green eyes flickered over to where she had left (?) Puffles for a moment though. He didn't look very well protected right now.

He didn't say that though, no. Instead, Williamson listened thoughtfully to the boy's answer and noded slowly. "The males tend to make a sort of high-pitched humming sound above our human level of hearing during mating season, sort of as a call to females." He eyed the class to make sure they were writing this down. "But other than that, there really are no major differences in behavior that I have noticed between the two genders."

He flicked his wand at the empty wall space beside him so the notes came up nice and bright, replacing the ones from earlier.

Pygmy Puff Genders

Males are brighter in color
Males are fluffier
Males make an extremely high humming sound to attract females
Females have longer tongues
Females have higher-pitched squeaks
Both have different reproductive organs

"So," Williamson cleared his throat awkwardly, not exactly knowing how to phrase this next part, "If you can't determine your pygmy puff's gender by one of the first five distinctions, you can always try to locate its hidden ah.... reproductive organs, which are unique to each gender, and um, rather difficult to find...."

And he was not going to go into any more detail on that. Ahem. The professor picked up his own pygmy puff and perched him on his head, grateful for the distraction Nerf provided, and instead looked around the barn for another group and another topic.

"Let's talk about what pygmy puffs eat! I know a lot of you tried various creative methods of figuring this one out! Somebody, please share."

O__________________O

He was talking about this mating season too? What was wrong with these people? Or worse, what was wrong with herself? Maybe she was the only one that found it weird, that's what it seemed like. Everyone else seemed to be alright with the topic, except her. At least Lewis started to talk now, but still they kept the mating topic going on. Seeing as she couldn't say much and she didn't like the subject , she didn't feel like listening anymore which was why as weird as she might have looked she took her two index fingers and blocked her ears.

OOOOOOOOOOH! Professor Williamson seemed to like his idea. At least he didn't react in any way like Renesmee had. Not the least bit. And hey, maybe that actually WAS the only way to find out which was which. Maybe they could try that some time. Because you know, the professor might be allowed to breed Pygmy Puffs. And he could help.

Oh. Okay, there seemed to be other possibilities to determine a Pygmy Puff's gender after all. Lewis quickly jotted down Males: high-pitched humming to attract females to his list and scratched out all the other behavior-related notes. He then tilted his head slightly to frown at Renesmee. It was her fault he had said the wrong thing after all. She had said that her Pygmy Puff was behaving differently. Yes.

His attention was caught by the professor again when he wrote down the distinctions on the wall. And Renesmee had been wrong AGAIN. They totally had reproductive organs. And they could be seen too. He turned his head again to point out exactly that when he saw that she had her two index fingers in her ears. What the...? A little unsure of what to do about it and CLEARLY confused too, Lewis finally reached out and poked her cheek to get her attention. There was something seriously wrong with this one.

SPOILER!!: STRETCHY

Listening to what the other people said about what Pygmy Puffs ate, Lewis jotted down a few notes once in a while but his main focus was on his Pygmy Puff. They had visible reproductive organs and he was going to find it. It had to be somewhere. And he wanted to know if it was a he or a she. So scooping it up once again, Lewis softly turned it on its back and started to run his fingers over its belly. Hmm. There was nothing there, maybe-

Before he got any further however, the Pygmy Puff gave a little squeak and rolled over again so it could stand up. It then turned around to face the opposite direction, staring intently at...something. Following the direction of its gaze, Lewis found himself looking at Kurumi whose Pygmy Puff had started squeaking like crazy. What was going on?!

Looking back and forth between the two Pygmy Puffs a couple of times, Lewis was about to wave a hand before his Pygmy Puff's eyes to get it out of its stupor when it turned around quite swiftly so it was facing him again. And...had it just huffed?! Could Pygmy Puffs huff? And somehow it was holding its head a little higher too. "I think it's a girl." Lewis muttered to nobody in particular, stil staring down at the Pygmy Puff in his hands curiously.

Seriously, what had that been about?!

Could you imagine if you had to be nameless , that wouldn't really make you feel good about yourself."Its a girl right? So how about ...Cuddles." That was a cute name wasn't it? And the puff ball did look very cuddly. There was more and more confused blinking going on, and before Nessie could control herself she started to giggle. If Lewis thought she was weird before, he'd probably think she was insane now nevermind just weird. It wasn't her fault that she reacted oddly to things, it was just who she was as a person and if he didn't want to acept it, it was he's loss not hers..right? She was calmer now that she knew for certain he wouldn't touch her little baby. Even though puffles did annoy nessie a huge amount, she still loved him to bits and he was very special to her. "Good, because nobody is touching my Puffles." Yes she may have sounded rude, but she was just being protective. Why wasn't Lewis saying anything? Ness looked at him some more, trying to give him looks that would make him speak. He obviously didn't notice though. It was too late anyway, the Professor started to speak again. Well, OBVIOUSLY it still deserved a name. Lewis couldn't help but frown at her slightly, seeing as her words came across as a little reproachful. He had never said it didn't.
