"Andy," he greeted in return with a small grin. Oh, the spiky bushes grabbed his attention alright, but he eyed them warily. "Errrr, yeah..." They were... interesting... and... spiky.

"I was just looking for you actually. Figured we had some catching up to do." It HAD been several years after all. Piers wasn't so good with keeping in touch with old friends. But he WAS good at picking up friendships from where they left off... a decade ago. That had been proven twice now.
His friend did not look all that impressed by the spiky bushes which was quite amusing. Hardly anyone liked their sight. Wasn't a pleasant one with the many things sticking out in all angles and threatening to poke out the closest eye. "You see to have caught their attention as well," He chuckled keeping a close look on them. But Piers was keeping his distance so all was good.

Oh, the visit was meant for him after all. That gladdened Andrew, not that people visiting the plants didn't - but he rather preferred himself sometimes. "I was thinking the same myself," But clearly his younger friend was faster to act and make it happen. His Snake buddy hadn't changed, had he? But of course he had. Not entirely. "Tell me what I don't know about this Professor Fuller," He smirked. And he had that thought that even if they hadn't known each other before, they'd still have bounded now.

"Mind if we do this while I trim those because kids might be wander near them," he said stepping closer to the bushes and drawing out his wand. He figured they wouldn't need to sit down with a cup of tea before them like chatty ladies. They were men! Unless Piers preferred somewhere less .... green. Then Andy would totally be okay with it.

As for the catching up. The Herbologist considered what to start with of his current life. The fact that his very sick mother lived with him? Nah. That was grim. "You know, this whole thing is weird for me," he said waving his wand and cutting spikes in the process, "I've been tutoring for more than I can remember," and the thought with many students looking up at him wasn't sitting well with him so far but he was curious to try it out.
