But that seemed like small potatoes compared to the flood her mother always talked about or even the spiders that the older students had mentioned.
Azura's face fell ever so slightly as Hady mentioned Professor Airey.. "I miss him you know. We weren't close, and I only saw him in classes, but he always seemed to bring a smile to my face, him and several other of the Professors that left." She knew it was part of life, that people had to move on.. but still, it wasn't a super fun reminder. And a small part of her wondered if she had done anything to make them leave..
A silly thing really.. but still the thought was there.
"Yes, it will be worth a try. Thank you so much." Az said with a nod. before smiling more up at the head girl.
"Honestly Hady.. you are great. You are always so helpful and amazing." Azura really looked up to the older girl.
Azura bit her lip a little as Hady spoke and she sighed softly.. "I mean I do want it.. but there are so many girls in my year.. Heck even my dorm who would do amazingly at it.. Rachel of course, Haddie would be.. unusual but still good! Ariadne would be the bounciest one we've had.." She said with a smile. "I don't know.. I don't even know if I'll be here for that long." She explained with a bit of a sigh.
With it being her final year so much had happened here at Hogwarts. Some of it made for incredibly hilarious stories. Others...not so much. Not many people wanted to speak of the spiders and all that had went along with that. She was usually one of those people, one of them many that were still terrified of the animal/creature no matter how small it was.
Hady hadn't meant to upset Azura when she had mentioned Airey. She wrapped a friendly arm around her giving her shoulder a light squeeze.
"I know what you mean, he's one of the professors I miss too." As well as Draper and Nana to name a few.
"I bet you could always owl him sometime." It might help her to feel better as well.
"Thank you Az, hearing that helps. It makes me want to keep doing what I do." It was the little things that mattered a lot of the time. Just a simple word of praise had a tendency to go a long long way.
Ah, okay. She could totally see what she meant.
"It's true that your year is a large one and there are many capable students but that shouldn't get you down. Keep doing what you're already doing and the professors will notice." Hard work always paid off. What was that last bit though? She might not be here that long? The teen looked at her questioningly for a second.
"Are you planning on switching schools or something?" Why else wouldn't she return to Hogwarts?
