The sixth year smiled and nodded as she listened to the professor. Emmylou would have loved to choose Arithmancy but she was horrible at the subject. Maybe Divinations or History of Magic was more of a fit for her since they were her favorite classes in the whole school. She loved the other lessons but she even knew that she was better at those two classes than any other. "I can ask my best friend what she would think of it." So she just had to get opinions from people that were closest to her.
Tiara laughed aloud at Emmylou's statement. So matter-of-fact, so sincere. "
Well I do appreciate the sentiment, dear, but I would hazard a guess to say that you will feel differently in fifty years," she said, still chuckling. "
But yes, it is possible that someday that will be an option. But I doubt I would take it." That statement would likely mystify a teenager with their whole life stretched ahead of them. She'd let the Gryffindor ponder it herself.
A pity, her tea was down to the dregs. But that must mean the conversation was quality. Tiara nodded her encouragement. "
Yes, ask her. Might I inquire as to your best subjects in school and your favorite subjects?" The two were not always the same. "
I seem to remember hearing Ca-- that is, I seem to remember Professor Morgan mentioning your work in her class. Perhaps ask her if you could give part of a lesson? Also, I would suggest speaking with your Head of House, Professor Flamsteed. He would be a likely liaison with potential employers, so getting him on board would be wise."
