...But then the voice of one Pierson Fuller rang into her head, acting as a conscience-like voice and told her she should trust Javy, just as much as she trusted Piers. Piers would want that, she knew. Plus, if Javy DID confiscate her badge, she would just rat him out to his husband and get him in trouble for ruining her fun. Soooooooo...
There was no getting out of this one.
"Fine." Regretfully, Sophie detached the badge from her robes, paused again, SQUINTED at him, then laid it in her open palm and extended it out to him.
There we are. "
Thank you," His open palm was no longer vacant as he received the badge. After glancing at it, Javier then used his wand to wordlessly levitate it to properly examine it. "
Now how long did it take you to make this?" Always the curious one he was.

Relax Ben you're not in trouble and you like this professor, he reminded himself as he moved closer to the desk and took a seat in one of the chairs there as instructed.
"Well..I'm taking OWLs this year and I was looking for advice." See...that was easy enough to say though only half of it. "I'm interested in working with creatures...especially dragons after school..." Getting better. "...and I was wonder what kind of subjects might be worth it to continue in...besides the obvious one."
Javier smiling kindly at him, then allowing one of his cups fly over to his desk before the jug of hot tea followed. Pouring its contents neatly in the cup. While this took place the Professor listened. The good old career advice as he nodded. "
Dragons.." He merely repeated it for his own sake to recall all that was needed. "
As I'm sure you know but in the case of if you didn't already how competitive the jobs are involving with Dragons." Waving away at the jug of tea that attempted to refill his own cup. "
Thankfully however because of this more jobs being associated with them have opened from being a Dragon Healer to tending to their habitat."
"
You've been progressing quite well in my classes, so I've no doubt you'll exceed the required 'Exceeds Expectations' OWL grade as long as you continue and increase your current efforts." Since it was never easy. Now then, with the other classes required. "
To make sure you have covered all the basics, it's best that you continue your NEWT studies with your core classes. That will include Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Transfiguration, and Herbology for good measure." Now for the why. "
This is similar to the requirements for being a Healer, however, even if you chose not to merely be a Dragon Healer continuing with the subjects will instill enough knowledge or you to be able to handle the unexpected situation better." The Professor paused for a moment, to make sure he was still following his words before asking this, "
Outside of my classes Mr. Atreyu, do you have other experience with magical creatures?"
