He nodded in acknowledgment of her thanks, but otherwise didn't say much else on the matter. Though, he was glad to see that the kids had seemed to enjoy this particular lesson. It would have to be one of his favorites as well. "Same to you, Ms. Kennedy," he said giving her another firm nod and watching as she walked back towards the castle. Quote:

With a small sigh, she filled the small bowl with some water, watching the Crup have her fill of it. Someone sure was thirsty. Esme gave some more pets until it was time to say goodbye. "I will come and visit you," she promised as she set her down in the pen. Meeeh. Sadly Esme collected all of her stuff. "Thank you for the lesson, Professor. It was amazing." If only she could keep her Crup... James knew he'd get a bunch of unhappy students after announcing that only Fifth years and above could adopt... He had his reasons though, and they had to do with obtaining a license. Which is why he didn't feel bad seeing Esme's disappointed face. "They will be here all year, Ms. Darcy," he reminded her gently as she began collecting her things and making the move out. It wasn't the end of the world. Quote:

Luckily she would be able to visit her. When Professor Draper said they could adopt them, Niomi's face lit up. She must go visit Professor Draper to adopt her cruppy.
Grabbing her things, Niomi started walking out of class. Before she left though she spoke to the Professor, "Thank you for a wonderful lesson, Professor!" After that, Niomi left the class. And while some faces had dropped, others' lit up like christmas trees. Especially this one in particular. Uh, hello? "Enjoy the rest of your day," he nodded. After all, the benefit of holding morning classes was having an entire day ahead to look forward to. There was a method to his madness practicality, see? Quote:

"It's okay, Glinda," he said, "I'll be back soon, I promise." He gave her one last scratch behind the ears before turning away, and she gave him a goodbye kiss on the hand. "Bye, Professor Draper," Fiyero called, turning back to wave as he reached the door. "Thanks for the lesson - and for keeping the crups around for the year!" He nodded, grinning knowingly and watching as this one waved with such enthusiasm. "Don't be late to your next class." But in other words, 'glad that you enjoyed the lesson'. Of course he was only thinking that part because where would be the good in telling the class that he wanted them to enjoy themselves? James' job was to push them to work hard. Tough love, y'know? That's just the way he did things, and by this point the students should understand that. Quote:

But I'm going to come and visit you and we'll have lots of fun together, ok?" With that, Janelle picked Mikey up and walked over to the crup pen. She gently placed him inside and gave him one more pat. "I'll see you soon, don't you worry." Reluctantly Janelle left him and headed straight for the professor. "Thanks Professor. This was the best Care of Magical Creatures lesson ever. I'll be stopping by to see you soon." 'Cause Mikey had to be hers. "I'll be there," he nodded in response. It wasn't a surprise to see just how many students had managed to grow attached within just one lesson period. Crups had that kind of effect on people. It was inevitable, it seemed. Which made his job a little harder, but hey... At least he was trying. They ought to give him some credit for that. Quote:

For a minute Hady just watched silently as her new little buddy ran off to play. Grabbing her bag she turned to Professor Draper with a small grin, "Great lesson Prefessor, I'll be stopping by your office really soon." As she was sure the man had already probably known she would be. With that she gave a wave and was on her way. She had a note to write and an owl to send off. "Ms. Lynch," he said nodding. He fully intending on seeing this one around whether or not she wanted to adopt one of the crups. She was among one of the regulars. "Enjoy your day," he nodded just before she turned to make her way up towards the castle. Quote:

He collected his things then walked alongside the Professor "Sir can I drop by your office too?" He too is interested in adopting.
And of course, James had fully been expecting the eager ones who didn't seem to understand the word 'no'. And he wasn't all that surprised to see Tenacius would be among them. Boy was a Gryffindor through and through, truly. "Of course," the real answer was more like 'I'd rather you not' because James knew what he wanted to meet about, given the way the boy was eyeing his cruppy. But alas, he couldn't turn any eager students away because he'd probably get fired for it. Let's be real. Quote:

Jaemin looked at the man indignantly as he announced that they would be around, and that class was pretty much over, immediately moving to scoop the small creature up and hug it again. They had BONDED, DRAPER. BONDED. How could you separate a small boy and his smaller dog?!
"Can we write our parents about adopting them if we're younger than fifth year?" he asked quietly, carefully standing as the cruppy stuck its nose under his chin and licked his neck. It was cold, then warm, and Jaemin squirmed a bit because it was weird feeling. He moved closer to Draper, and the pen, but didn't put Zero down just yet. "I like this one. He's nice. And he only got me a little wet."
Well... a lot, but there was very little of Jaemin to get wet, so really, it was a little in comparison to everyone else. He looked up at Draper imploringly.
And of course Tenacius wouldn't' be the only one. Again, fully expected. "It isn't so much about parental permission as it is about acquiring a ministry approved license," in other words crups couldn't just be given out to anyone. And if he said yes to one, then he'd have to say yes to them all. Did Jaemin see the problem? Probably not, this was the kid who had wanted to domesticate a wild niffler after all. "They'll be here all term," he nodded. "And if you still feel this strongly about him at the end of the year, we can talk about it some more... Yeah?" That was fair enough, yes? Because it was the most James would be willing to do at this point. Besides, if the family approved, Jaemin could get his parents to adopt from the shelter directly. James had zero liability there.
Man just needed to keep his job.
James waited for the rest of the class to walk their crups over to the pen. Once the last cruppy was inside, he turned to watch the last few stragglers make their way towards the castle. And finally, time to clean up. It had been a good lesson after all. Thank Merlin. OOC: Thanks so much for coming and playing with us y'all! Truly appreciate each and every one of you <3 I had loads of fun and I hope y'all did too!!
