She grabbed the bristle brush and looked around for some soap. "He also has an acromantula nesting in his hair with his complete consent. Where's the soap?" No use asking, Louisa got to her feet and went to get some from the cupboard.

"Yep. I need the NEWT and I got an Outstanding in my OWLs." So it seemed like a shame to drop the subject just because she wasn't a creature hugger. Back with some soapy water in a bucket, she dipped the brush and started the gentle scrubbing. "And it's not that I don't think much of creatures," which she didn't but she felt bad saying it out loud. "It's that I'm not interested in... taking care of them. No.. uhh.." she paused the scrubbing and stared at her fire crab, still trying to fart apparently but failing and growing grumpy cos of it. "I don't connect with them." She looked up at Vivi then and shrugged.

Scrub scrub scrub.. "It's different from how I feel about plants. I like the green living things but I'm not a Spike or a Bentley." Who were both over the top if you ask her.
"He can't be offended. We barely speak to each other. I'm not sure he's aware that keeping bugs in his pockets and spiders in his hair will probably never get him a girlfriend, but he sounds like a good little Ravenclaw in that he cares more about his interests than anything else." Which was the definition of a good 'Claw... no matter that most of them failed to live up to it.

She focused on Bob's shell, gently massaging lose the flaking dirt from the creases and around the gems and then setting the fire crab on the ground so she could refill the bucket with clean water. Bob went back into the bucket with a little splash. "Like I said... not judging you. I just think there are lots of interesting things in this world, so I don't bother with the things I don't care about. I'm lucky that the classes I need for YATI don't fall into that category."

She did grin at that, and the grin widened when little fire crab legs flailed as Bob tried to climb out of the bucket. "What do you like? Or what do you love? Class-wise."
