She hoped maybe telling him not to worry would be a good idea. Then again when she told her brother that, it only made him start worrying more. His last sentence repeated in her mind. I’d hate to see you in a hospital bed completely incapacitated. So Hogwarts did have dangers within the castle. She'd have to make a note to research this at a different time. "Any places I should avoid that aren't already off limits?" Cause now she definitely wasn't going to explore those with THAT advice.

Olivia focused on Roscoe in front of her momentarily, smiling at him and joking with the Newfoundland. Then she decided to also sit on the ground too as her feet were sore from exploring the grounds already. When Healer Reed spoke again, she stopped joking with Rosoce and listened. Full rescue missions? That was AWESOME. However, when he spoke of fate, she smiled a little. "Maybe it's not but maybe you have another journey ahead of you?" It was possible that Healer Reed could end up pursuing his dream in the near future. If she was hiring for the Ministry, she would have hired him already. However, she was just merely a student. Not a professional. Healer Reed's question made her stop in her tracks. Career path? Wasn't that a bit early? "I know I definitely don't want to teach. I know I don't have the patience for it," she chuckled. She wasn't her middle brother. "As a child, I always loved helping people and animals alike. I'm fascinated with memory. So I'm not sure just yet. Though I know I do not want to be a professional Quidditch player. I'm clumsy enough on ground. Imagine me trying to fly around." She shook her head at the thought. She'd look completely and utterly ridiculous. "I like my feet on the ground."

At his mention of the two dog's owners not wanting them, Olivia frowned. It seemed sad to hear and think about how someone could possibly not want one of these wonderful bundles of fluff. "Maybe they were moving away? Or they couldn't afford to keep the dogs?" she offered. Or maybe they didn't remember. The last thought made her shudder and fold her arms momentarily. Mother. She glanced down at Roscoe and then back at Healer Reed. Australian Shepherds were good rescue dogs too? "Fantastic! Maybe Mr. Bennet and I can go on our own adventures though he is getting a little old these days." She wouldn't want to push him too much. Mr. Bennet sometimes thought he was much younger than the age he was! Silly pup. "Yes, small dog yet big personality. Fits him very well. The only people he really listens to are Dad and Si. He thinks I'm younger and sillier than him." Both were somewhat true.


Should he completely trust the words of a 14 year old? Maybe not, but then again it was his job to keep students informed beforehand that their actions have consequences, and that they must choose wisely every single time. They may be children still, yes, but they were born with magic in their blood and that in itself is a whole new story. Child or not, they were susceptible to higher risks and dangers than their muggle counterparts. Olivia’s affirmation was met with a nod and a grin, and a silent wish that she will keep her words. “The last time I was here, the Forbidden Forest was off-limits...and it still is. I am sure you know the reason for it.” She need not be a Ravenclaw to know, really. “Besides that, be extra careful about the Whomping Willow. Always keep a safe distance from that thing, though it shouldn’t stop you from appreciating it.” He didn’t want to put a bad reputation on the sentient plant...or he’d face the wrath of the Herbology professor. There was no way he’d wear a poncho as punishment. Just...no.

“Maybe.” River shrugged and smiled at the young lady. “I wasn’t named River for nothing, you see. My mother felt that I was adaptable to any situation...just like water.” If Olivia was quick enough, she’d pick up the ATLA reference in between, which reminded him that Jace particularly loved these moments with him. Where is that boy anyway? River listened to the young lady and tilted his head to the side, “You’ll do well as a Healer...or a Creatures’ Veterinarian. I took the latter as a minor back in University...” he said trailing off as he took moment to watch the others on the ground play amongst themselves. “Merlin, you sound like Jace.” River let out a chuckle as shook his head in disbelief. “You should learn how to, though. And...take it as a means to improve your balance. There’s always a reason for you to learn it, don’t you think?” He really should get paid extra for this counselling thing.

The Healer let out a sigh, and shook his head once more as he glanced at his babies. “The shelter said they were abandoned.” He said giving Bumi a nice pat on its tummy, “I knew I had to take them with me. It felt right that moment.” He added as he flipped Bumi’s left ear flap and took a quick peek at it. “You should still be in command, Miss Holden. Always think big whenever you’re with Mr. Bennet.” But then again, they were talking about an old dog. “You should also take the time to have his check-up with the vet more often.” Because sadly, sooner or later...her dog will have to go too.
