Sleep, yes. That, he would do. Quote:

...and then she smiled a quiet, peaceful little smile; first at Mr. Kitridge and then at Daxton, who was peering at her confusedly. Her choices probably made no sense to either of them, but that didn't matter one bit. Being different was the spice of life. It's what made them all individually interesting. "It's getting late, sir. Was there anything else you needed to discuss with me?" Lessons started bright and early tomorrow...and Reagan needed a good night's sleep. Leo nodded to Daxton as the boy got up from his chair and left the office before he turned his attention to Reagan again. "I commend you for thinking about your peers well being Reagan. Next time though, I suggest that you just signal either myself or Professor Tanner before you leave silently." The way Reagan had acted at the event she had brought attention to herself and her wishes to leave. Leo would have wondered about her reason for leaving but he'd have asked her about it at a later time. He wouldn't have felt the need to excuse himself to get clarity in to why she wanted to leave as he had done now. Tiara was probably wondering where he was too. Shaking his head he said "No, I have no further questions. You are free to retreat back to your dorm. Good night Reagan." Lifting his hot chocolate cup to his lips Leo took longs sips from it as he waited for Reagan to leave for her dorm before he closed his office and went to find Tiara. SPOILER!!: Adelynn Quote:

She's the cutest cat that you'll ever see, ooh I wish I had a picture with me to show you!" Her other two cats were cool too, but they were more of family pets. Elsie had a personal liking to Adelynn and vice versa.
She didn't mean to make him uncomfortable, she kind of just had that effect on some people. She still strongly felt that he had incredible occupations at Hogwarts though and felt the need to voice it. "Superheros come in all different forms, sir!" she took a quick sip of her tea and continued, "Honestly, I think you're living, like truly living." she said with a slow nod. "I mean you get to be around books, so you can learn about any subject you wish! You also get to help others too! And there are so many other things that come with the job. I mean I couldn't even..." She thought about the idea of her potentially becoming a Head of House in another 15 years or so, and shook her head. "IMAGINE doing what you do. Nope, I wouldn't be good enough. It's a great job but I'm sure there's so much competition and.." she ran out of breathe and then looked up at Mr. Kitridge. "I'm sorry, I can get a little carried away sometimes, sir."
The mention of classes kept her energy level up. "Oh, I love my classes! All my professors make the classes so much more interesting than they already are. Astronomy has to be one of my favorites so far!" Her first astronomy lesson was very memorable and stood out to her among the others.
Adelynn calmed down at the mention of friends, as much as she loved them dearly, she didn't find friends and relationships to be as exciting as learning. Adelynn had made a good variety of friends already, something she didn't expect but was happy with. "Yeah, the students here are great! I'm good friends with one of my dorm mates, met some friendly Gryffindors, and some people from the other houses too." She smiled. "I have to say, I'm a bit shocked at the amount of people I've befriended. I only had two or three close friends back at Beauxbatons, sir." She definitely was never a popular child but not a lonely one either. Pausing from sipping on his tea Leo suggested. "You can always try writing home and telling your parents about your progress in the different subjects and friendship building and most of all that you miss your cat. And maybe they'll change their minds." It was a long shot he knew but it was better than waiting for the year to end. Leo couldn't picture being without his kneazle for a long period of time. When he had been in school he had his siblings with him so he hadn't needed a furry companion as much.
And then Adelynn awed him with a long outline of why she thought he was a living superhero because of all the duties he performed in a day's work and also helping students. With a smile pursing his lips Leo said when Adellyn finally paused her tirade. "I'm flattered that you consider me a superhero. I'm though just a 40 year old man that has taken on leading my former house in conjunction with my work as the school librarian. It's no different than what Professors Flamsteed and Moxley or Healer Tillstorm does." They were all heads of houses just like him.
Beaming he waved away her apology. "It's all right, everyone gets a little carried away sometimes. Why is Astronomy your favourite class so far?" What did Airey do that made the students love his lessons? "Well hogwarts is full of surprises and I'm glad to hear that you've made friends not just in the house but across house lines. Its your friends that will help you get through your 7 years of magical eduction." Leo stated.
