Hadley's eyes lit up as Newton proudly told her about his granddaughter walking. "She did? That's great!" She took another sip of her hot chocolate, and this time wiped away the mustache. "Oh they're great. Both my parents have started dating again, so it looks like they've moving on from the divorce well enough. I just got back home from visiting my Dad in California with Natalie and a couple of our friends. Mark, my older brother," had she told him about Mark? She knew she'd told him about her twin sister Natalie. He'd even met her after the play, but she wasn't sure if she mentioned her older brother before. "He spent the summer backpacking across Europe before university started."

Hadley watched as Professor Newton retrieved her file, sipping the hot chocolate as she did. "Honestly, I hadn't given it much thought yet." She fell quiet, thinking it over. "I think I'd like to try harder potions, ones that really challenge me?" Well, technically intermediate potions still challenged her, but still. "I know it might be a bit too advanced too soon, but it might be good to have try and problem solve some potions outside my current comfort zone. If you think that's a good idea I mean." Hads smiled quietly when Professor Newton said she was smart, and sipped her hot chocolate.

"It was a-" he started, and then chortled. "Are you starting to grow a beard?" he joked. He handed her a tissue, but perhaps she DID want a moustache? "It looked a lot of fun."

"It is, just wonderful. My son got lots of photos of the moment too, actually." He went to his wall and picked a photo down, which was framed. It had been developed with the photo potion, so it was animated. It showed the little love pulling herself up and walking towards April, who was kneeling with her arms stretched out. He showed it to Miss Denaker. "Oh... w-well I hope you're... doing okay with all of that." He didn't want to stick his nose in to her family life. But of course he was there to talk about it if she wished. "Oh Great Scott, that sounds wonderful. A summer in California, and... your brother backpacking. What's he studying?" Art asked, taking some more of his tea.

Art thought for a moment. He was not entirely sure about which direction to go in. "I could perhaps... make a salvageable potion, one which isn't quite right, and you can go through the steps and ingredients and try to work out what happened, and how to fix it."
