"Of course you can do that. You seem reasonably intelligent." Striding over to the Slytherin, she presented the parchment to her. "And I see no reason why it should not work. You do not appear to be otherwise unhealthy or having a lack of hygiene. Give it a few weeks and you'll see."

As for her other question, close enough. "That is good enough to be getting on with, yes. I presume you mean before Hogwarts?" Since they were currently in her office and all that, it would be ridiculous to be inquiring as to its location. "Doing field work all over the world mostly. In Peru most recently, as I would guess that you have heard already." She did run in to several Hogwarts students on their summer field trip there, after all. "But prior teaching experience takes me back to South Africa with your own Professor Hadley."


So what this woman was saying was basically Sophie should either find an older boy or wait a few years before trying to find a boyfriend. Sophie wasn't exactly desperate, so she could see herself going either way. She just didn't want to blow through her teenage years doing things like going single to all the school dances. She imagined that'd be very boring.

Sophie nodded as she accepted the parchment. "Thanks, Professor," she said. "I just..." She trailed off and left that thought. She was about to say she wished it was as easy for her as it was for the professor. Sophie had noticed that the moment all the boys saw their new Arithmancy professor, they were automatically admiring her. Then again, she guessed that's what she should expect from a woman who checked her appearance every five seconds.

Again, she nodded. "Right, before Hogwarts," because Sophie knew what the woman was doing nowadays. Hmm...so Sophie guessed this woman was legit. "What made you want to come here to teach?" She seemed to have had an exciting life--why Hogwarts?
