He soooooooo was not sure about this.
Jaemin tentatively stepped into the classroom, his steps faltering in the doorway as he clutched the little travel cage. Sniffler was not a fan of the cage, because there was very little room for rolling running about and it was not as warm and comfortable as the way he was normally carried, but his actual hutch thingy was way too big to be carrying around and since Jaemin's pocket didn't qualify as a cage... the seemingly vaguely disgruntled hedgehog was nestled inside, sniffing every so often. The boy's hesitation, however, did not come from the hedgehog's anger over being inside a small space, but rather, the place into which he was bringing the small space.
The small Slytherin had no qualms with testing his potions on himself. If he messed it up, then it was no big deal - he could, realistically, either fix it, or find someone else to fix it. He could say when there was a problem, and make it extremely obvious. However... Sniffler had no such ability. And after the one Potions session had happened, with the Things Have Gone Wrong Elixir and the class ending up slightly poisoned and some people vomiting everywhere... Jaemin was not exactly sure if he really wanted to bring his pet here. He had strongly considered pretending he didn't have a pet at all, actually; he'd sat in his dorm for a very long time, looking at Sniffler and wondering if he had it in him to deny his friendship to the world, just to possibly save his tiny life. But he couldn't do that, because he didn't want to get in trouble, or offend the tiny hedgehog should someone decide to tell him that Jaemin was spreading untruths.
"Hello professor," the small boy whispered, rushing away to a station to set Sniffler (and the cauldron of stuff hanging precariously from his fingertips beneath the hedgehog's cage) down before moving to get his little white coat thingy. He was back at the workstation within a moment, worried to leave his tiny pet alone. There were a lot of others here, and a lot of... larger... carnivorous... pets...
The boy popped up onto his seat, pulled the cage into his lap, and wrapped himself around it. |
