Default post 1 ... acquiring the blanket

So basically they had to FEEL their griffin to determine gender? Tia really tried to keep serious as Professor Thompson explained about feeling for a stub. Couldn't she just LOOK instead? Surely it was rather personal and they were strangers practically. Feeling more tickles of the griffin at her ankles she smiled; not strangers enough for the creature to nibble at her skin.

"Alright, little guy, let's see you out..." She picked it up and looked underneath. She didn't see anything, but maybe she ought to feel it as the professor suggested. With one hand still holding it, she used her other hand to reach around quickly and AHA she had a boy! And she might have felt the stub too long (even if it was only a second) as she felt the little guy squirm in her hands and out of her hands back to nibbling at the ankles. REALLY? So he was allowed to touch her ankles, but she wasn't allowed to touch him? Hardly fair. Did she have to name him because honestly only one male name came to mind when she thought of a griffin and really she didn't want to think about him.

Ignoring the naming part - for now - it was time to summon a blanket so he would be comfortable. Easy enough. "Accio blanket," the fifth year called out, a striped blue and white blanket zooming overhead. She caught it and used it to pick the griffin up again, this time wrapping it in the blanket. "There, there," she cooed and smiled, holding it like a newborn infant.
