Dora nodded as he spoke. She understood that... but she didn't mind animals following her around. Not at all, actually. Her dog, Expecto, had done that for like forever. Not to mention Spike and Addy's animals did the same whenever she came around. Heh. The lemurs especially liked to mess with her and steal her shiny things. "I wish Lola could follow me around. Or at least stay in my dorm with me. I miss her terribly," she said with a sigh. Or like... could she just sleep out here? It would be a right sight more peaceful probably.

Mingle a bunch of rabid students with horrible temperaments with the Hogwarts kids? Super idea that was. Dora couldn't help the eye roll that left her. Truly she had tried. "Thanks for that, Professor." The compliment, that was. She felt like... the whole thing was going to fall out from under her any minute, but she felt a bit smug nonetheless. Being underestimated was always useful. "Oh no. I wouldn't like to. Share my theory. I don't want to ever sway anyone to thinking my way... So I tend to not share such things." And she didn't know if she quite trusted the man yet. Yeah she was still holding a bit of a grudge.

But now Dora watched the man as he spoke. Captivated as he told her more about himself and his life. Regardless of it being VERY little, she did appreciate when older people opened up. Like she was basically an adult and would never tell anyone else the things she knew about people. Ever. "That sounds like a lovely life, sir. But I think I get it. Not doing the things YOU love sounds like a drag." Like she couldn't imagine not doing the things she had worked so hard to LEARN how to do. "Well I think you're a great asset to our school, sir. I am glad you are here... and I think you have learnt from some of the early mistakes you made. Which is awesome."

And with a sigh she looked back to her plant and frowned. "Sometimes I get worried about going off to university. I don't know what my dad is going to do with Al and I gone at the same time. I will worry about him so much... And I don't even know for sure which Uni I am going to attend, but I know which one I do... and then I have to be sure that Casper and I end up at the same place because that is our plan... and it's just worrisome. Some days I wish I could go back to being a first year who didn't care what people thought or what they did. Innocence had its perks."
