Kurumi had mildly returned Professor Williamson's wave, but her focus was on Momotaro II who had seemingly already forgotten her as he rolled around with the other py gmy puffs. Had that week they spent together meant nothing to him?! All the pumpkin soup baths and sugar cubes and grooming?! Frowning a bit, Kurumi turned her attention back to Professor Williamson and thought about his first question for a few moments before raising her hand to speak.
"I...sort of let my pygmy puff guide me," she said rather vaguely. "Last lesson, we discussed how pygmy puffs ought to act and created a general picture about them, but that is sort of like saying that all wizards are a certain way or that every pit bull dog is an attack dog. There are always exceptions. So, Momotaro II taught me about him. What he likes and dislikes and guided me as to how to properly care for him." That...answered the professor's question, right? She was more than willing to go into further details if he wanted, but she didn't want to go on and on when he could read about most of this in her journal entries. "I rather enjoyed the assignment. It taught me patience and that you really have to listen to the creature you are taking care of, look for signs and really study them."
And that was really all she had to say for now...could she have him back now? Please?
As for his second question, well, that one was a little tricky. To Kurumi, given the proper environment and circumstances, ANY creature could be considered dangerous really. Kurumi rubbed the back of her neck for a moment, thinking about how best to word what she wanted to say and trying her best to throw thoughts like 'dark creatures' and 'Minstry ratings' out the window. It took a bit, but Kurumi eventually raised her hand. "I think...that human fear and loathing are a major contributor. For example, the platypus is capable of producing a venom that can cause severe pain and even incapacitate a human, but we see them as being rather cute and cuddly where as other venom producing creatures, like some snakes, are seen as dangerous. I suppose the difference is that a platypus' venom cannot kill a person whereas other creatures' venom can." She swallowed, thinking a bit more about the topic and remember just HOW many times this term she had come face to face with two creatures that were definitely dangerous. Why? Because she feared for her life. "T-This term...I came face to face with a chimaera and an acromantula..." Both of which were frightening and potentially lethal. "What made me instantly think they were dangerous was, well, because they could kill me." Once again, human fear defining whether or not the creature was dangerous or not.
