Not that her mom actually did that with their garden, but she remembered her telling her that that was something Muggles and wizards agreed on when it came to plants. "I've never investigated it, though. It would be interesting if true, since plants growing in the forest don't have people to talk to them or music."

She didn't blame him for not wanting his picture taken. Maybe he was a little bit shy. "I've started asking permission before taking someone's picture," she said as she carefully picked up her camera. "When I first came to Hogwarts I would take pictures of EVERYTHING. But I don't want to be sued or anything after leaving Hogwarts, so I'm developing good habits." Katherine was the one who (indirectly) gave her the idea to ask permission.

"I always show the photos I've taken at the end of term feast. Um, would you like to see some?"

"Fair point." Levi had actually forgotten he was supposed to get the rest of the instruments needed for gardening. This was the sort of conversation he lived for. Which sounded a little dramatic but it was also sort of partially true. "Do you think maybe the sheer nature of the plants makes their growth pattern different, then? There is so much magic in these grounds, surely not even the grass has remained unaffected." Levi actually tapped his chin with one of his gloved index fingers. "Or I suppose it could just be the centaurs doing all the talking."

Oh. Right. The camera. Levi zoomed in on the object again, head tilting to one side as Kitty explained her project. "Asking first seems like the polite thing to do," He conceded. And also appreciated, for obvious reasons. "But isn't it a little difficult for you to capture people for who they really are if they're always posing?"

He was unclear if Kitty was offering to show him her pictures in hopes of getting a constructive critique and Levi hoped that was not the case. He did not feel good criticizing anyone's hard work, no matter how atrocious it might be. But he also knew that sometimes a photographer's picture told you more about themselves than of the subject at hand, and that appealed to him, so he said, "Yes, of course," as he moved closer, expectantly.
