He knew that was still four terms away for the young third year, but it was something she could look forward to and have a purpose for.

"I am sure they are interesting and will be beneficial to anyone who deems them important." Just hearing her explain her experiment on the lizards was intriguing for him, though he still wished she had thought to talk to him first before going ahead with it. Safety reasons.

Crossbreeding? Oh, boy. "I am very familiar with crossbreeding. I actually had to do it for my degree, so we could see the positive and mostly negative outcomes," he paused for a moment, rubbing his chin, the worry crease between his eyebrows deepening, "Why?" He wasn't sure he was going to like this. But he wanted to hear her out and didn't want to discourage her from asking any questions she may have. But he did feel the subject was far too advanced for her age.

Aaaaannnd just like that, the smile she wore began to recede. Not by too much of a noticeable degree but her eyes had certainly dimmed at the suggestion the fwooper wouldn't be for another four years. It was like listening to Rooney tell her her dragon plans may have to wait til she was rounding up her studies in University. Sometimes age seemed to be her biggest obstacle when trying to go places and have people take her seriously. "And if I do things even better than the right way? Would you be amenable to letting me have one in my Sixth or Seventh Year? That way, you could monitor me with it, show me everything I need to know and make sure I'm ready to be let out into the world with a fwooper of my own." The practicality of it was what had her giving the suggestion. Could you imagine leaving Hogwarts with a fwooper you'd never taken care of and had no real experience with? And hardly a creature expert just a stroll away from the castle to help? Yikes.

That was always the snag wasn't it? Things being beneficial to those who deemed them important. Her friends didn't consider most--if any of her experiments important. Half the time they ended up asking why she was interested to begin with. Those were truly isolating moments. "Thanks. I think it'll become more appreciated with a change of audience." Even Mairwen who enjoyed helping her with stuff probably didn't think them particularly important, just interesting to conduct.

AND WHAT LUCK, HE DID THIS PARTICULAR TOPIC IN UNIVERSITY!!! Oh wow! Jessa completely missed the growing apprehension coming from the Professor, more interested in the new possibilities. "Because I'd like to make a dragon." She explained. "But not....a big one like the rest. I'm looking more for a hybrid, something smaller...something people won't insist is too dangerous for me to have around." It was still waaaayyyy up in the pipeline of experiments for her but it didn't mean she thought about it any less. "See, my friend and I had plans to visit this dragon reserve my sister's cousin works at and we thought for a minute how nice it'd be to have our own baby dragons, but then she said "they're too dangerous, no one would ever let us"--which she isn't wrong about, but then it got me thinking.....what if...they weren't too big and dangerous?" Jessa thought she would explain her line of thinking before he immediately shot her down because yes, she HAD heard the way he emphasized the 'negatives'.
