She had no reason to bring that up, to make things any more awkward than they might have already been. She didn’t do awkward, really. Another reason why she felt like the Gryffindor’s belief he could use her as a distraction was nothing sort of irritating.
Plus, it was always amusing to know that at least Hagan wasn’t afraid of her. The pouring was almost comforting, and she kept scratching the cat’s head even as she nodded in response to the comment. “There’s nothing wrong with that,” she replied. Not to mention the odds of interruption this close to the willow were slim to none, her own notwithstanding. She had raised an eyebrow slightly at the question posed of her, though. Maybe her idea that things wouldn’t be brought up wasn’t as accurate as she hoped. “They’re good,” she said instead. There was no reason to bring subjects up that she already knew Hady was aware of. “Taking advantage of not having OWLs this term, really.” It left her with more time to do other things.
Hady wasn't at all surprised with the way Hagan took to Brooklyn. She was supplying him with his favorite thing, a petting. Not to mention the fellow Slytherin knew the cat for quite a few years already which probably helped. Then again her furry companion liked everyone just like she herself did so there was that factor too.
See once again she hadn't needed to explain anything. Brooklyn just knew. She knew and she understood. No words needed. Hady smiled a little nodding her head as well. They were on the same page.
"I couldn't be happier that OWLs are over. I'm not looking forward to next term with NEWTs though but at least that's still a little while away yet." Having less lessons to study for was going to be a huge help as well.
