Though he could feel her disappointment, she at least was considering the other options. A unicorn though.. "Owning a unicorn would require a specific license that many students interested in creatures attend a Wizarding Universities for."

Breaking the bad news was getting quite repetitive for the Creature teacher though, as it wasn't in his interest to steer students away from them. Instead he opened one of his drawers to reveal a Pet Care Magazine for her to take. "Your interest in owning a pet that requires advanced knowledge and responsibility is admirable Miss Valentine." Waiting for her to take it before explaining, "While you may not be able to own a Unicorn or a House elf at the moment, there are a wide variety of creatures that could also peak your interest and that you could own presently at home." Now for the examples, "There are Puffskeins, Kneazles, Crups, and Pygmy puffs for one if you're not already interested in Owls or toads for example." Pausing to see how she felt about it.

Was he serious? "I'm only eleven though." That was far too many years left before owning one, and that was disappointing in itself. Sighing, she realized that no matter what she did, she was not going to get an elf right now. This wouldn't be the end of it, but for the time being she would just focus her energy on something else. You had to go to a flippin' university to own a unicorn??? That was insane. "I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up." Maybe she just would go and get a degree in unicorns. She snorted when she thought about what she could do with that job wise.

Cool, he had a magazine. "Thanks professor!" She quickly flipped through the magazine and saw quite a few different creatures that looked cool, but not unicorn cool. "Oh, my friend told me about a Hippogriff, but they sound really cool so I'm assuming I can't have one of those either." Listening to the creatures that he deemed as pet ready, there were a couple that caught her attention. "Which one is the closest to a unicorn?" Or the coolest one. That was the one that she wanted. "I definitely need an owl, but I want something else too."
