She could think of several things that would be worth it. And the common theme among them was a certain Care of Magical Creatures Professor. Just saying. Not that she said any of that. Not here in front of Primeaux. "I understand, sir." They liked it when you called them sir, even if it felt fake to Haddie. Not just when she said it, but when anyone else said it, or gave other culturally accepted signs of respect. How many of those people actually meant it, and how many were just performing what was expected. She'd put most in the latter. Nope, Hadley preferred to show genuine respect her own way. Except that people always thought she was being disrespectful.
And she was hoping to learn the spell. So sir it was. "Do you have a favorite childhood toy or friend, Professor?" Genuine curiosity here. And the answer would reveal something about Primeaux, so, yes, curious and interested.
Julien had children so he understood the attachment. He nodded as she said about it being her friend though he hoped it wasn't her best friend anymore. She had real friends here at school, he hoped.
"I had one when I was younger." It was a dragon, if he remembered correctly his mother still had it somewhere.
Her agreeing still didn't make him fully believe that she wouldn't use it wrongly, but his terms were there and she'd pay the price if she was caught.
"Alright, what you will want to do is make sure the seem is together and the wand movement is a small flick and point touching the object you would like to stick." He pointed to the parchment he had just stuck.
"The words are diutirnus affigo" It really wasn't a hard spell but being permanent it could be a dangerous one with young students.
"You won't get it at first, but with some practice you will have him patched up." He could offer to do it, but then there was no reason to teach her the charm if he did.

When she heard his voice she felt relived. He was fine and possibly still in need of a body guard. SEE timing was everything. "Hello Professor Primeaux, Actually I was wondering if I could help you with something."
Katerina grinned. 'Sure. It shouldn't be long though." She watched him open the door, that was so cool she couldn't wait to be able to do magic outside of school and on her own more. She skipped and followed him into his office.
He raised a brow at her words,
"Help me? I wasn't aware I needed help with something." Was this a prank? He didn't do well with pranks and the ones involved could land in detention. Not that he didn't have a sense of humor, he just didn't have a good one. Gesturing for her to head into the office he followed behind.
Flicking his wand he saw the tea pot come to life and his tea started to sent the room.
"Now why don't you have a seat and let me know exactly what you are here for Katerina." The young Hufflepuff was acting a bit strange from what he remembered of her. Was something up with the puffs this term? His nephew acting a bit odd all the time, maybe he was rubbing off on them.
