The theory about why Albus didn’t like baths was still not proven, but then Stasya had been dealing with lots lately. Mostly all the worry about Dark wizards and trying to figure out why professors were bringing up subjects that made them seem like Dark wizards in class. Plus more cookie experiments, and just normal twelve-year-old stuff. There had been plenty of visits to the barn in the meantime, too, and there was still the need to make sure the mama and baby unicorn were still okay in the forest. If she could go by the appearance of Henry’s Granian and the other winged horses in the nursery, the baby unicorn was probably lots bigger by now and maybe then she could actually be its friend easier. If only she could find them without ending up lost in the forest again and needing Professor Hirsch to rescue her.

Anyway, the announcement about adoption had gone up, so she’d run down to the nursery as soon as she could, maybe before Potions but she still didn’t really like the subject. Therefore, letting Albus know that maybe he could come home with her was way more important than worrying about if she’d be late for that lesson. Plus, she’d stopped by the barn and picked up Dobby. If Albus was going to be coming home with her, he needed to get to know her squirrel and Dobby needed to meet the puffskein.

Squirrel on her shoulder and small container of food in her hands, she’d made her way over to the puffskein’s cage with a big grin on her face. Lots of excitement. Except, as she got to the cage she saw Albus all curled up asleep in his little blanket nest. Okay, so she’d have to be quieter, but as she unlocked the cage she saw him move and practically by the time she’d gotten the door open, the ball of fluff had rolled over to greet her. “Hi Albus. This is Dobby,” she said, making sure the squirrel didn’t suddenly dart toward him and scare him. “He’s sort of like your brother, ‘cept he’s not a puffskein.” And Albus probably shouldn’t try to lick his ears. Probably not any earwax though so maybe he wouldn’t try. Dobby had just scampered on top of the cage anyway, exploring the new environment and proving that Albus didn’t bother him by really not doing much more than peer down at him curiously before letting his tail trail over him on his way back to her head. That seemed like the best first meeting she could ask for.

Letting Albus roll into her hands, she set him down on the ground while she used her wand to clean the cage as best she could, filling his food bowl once she was finished and giving him fresh water before she sat down on the floor with him. “Okay, I know you don’t like baths very much, but you gotta be clean.” She didn’t want Professor Wayland to think she wasn’t taking awesome care of him and not let her keep him, after all. So she slid a bowl over and filled it with water, using the heating charm to make sure the water wasn’t cold before she scooped Albus up and gently set him in the bowl. “You’ll be nice and clean really fast, okay.” That was a promise, and she tried to be as quick as possible, without missing a spot. Once she was done, she made sure to get him completely dry and then set him safely in his blanket nest, letting him choose to eat when he wanted. After the bath trauma, she didn’t blame him if he wanted to sulk for a little while.
