Why was Minerva so... jumpy? What was wrong? Nothing could be wrong. Yeah okay her boyfriend was leaving--who needed lovers in the first place?--but she could see him in less than a year... no, she wasn't jumpy. She didn't have any reason to be.

"Nice to meet you," he said politely and his chest poked out a little with pride when he was introduced as her and a badger. He was proud to be both, okay?

What was she crying what why no how. Ice-cream? WHAT was she talking about?! It didn't make sense! So what if it was charmed and whatnot. They had spent good time with it, no?

"You're the sweetest person ever, Minerva!" he exclaimed, at a loss for more words really. "We spent quality time together, no?" So no harm done. "Please don't cry!" His voice was half hysteric, because he panicked massively when people cried especially because of him.

Please.

Forrest saw her badge before he heard her request, so really there was no need to ask for his permission. Not that badge mattered much, but it made him timider than necessary.

"No I don't mind sure." He scooted away and tried to be one piece with the walls of the carriage to allow her as much space as possible.
