"Oh...June..." he grinned widely. "That is so sweet of you to say! Do you have a keen interest in plants?" he asked. Because when someone was passionate...it just...it made teaching them much easier. "Would you like a cup of herbal tea?" he asked her before he sat down because he didn't want to FLOP all comfortably into one of the bean bags if she wanted tea. He'd just have to get up again! Might as well waaaaaait!
June's eyes grew large when she saw the inside fo the meeting space. SO. MANY. FISH!!!
"Woah," she said in awe,
"This is amazing, professor!" Despite having two magical parents she hadn't quite gotten used to the odd things one can find at Hogwarts yet.
"Yes, sir! I really enjoy plants. My parents are homesteaders, so we grow our own food, magical plants for potions, muggle plants for tinctures, that sort of thing. We live out int he countryside so we sort of deal with magical and non-magical folk alike when selling our wares." she said.
"My father also works with magical creatures. The legal ones anyway." She added. She always felt the need to add that little caveat... there were so many ILLEGAL magical creatures that it felt important to add.
"I would love some tea, thank you!" It was the first time she was offered tea at school. She loved tea, which seemed a bit odd for someone her age, at least from the muggles she knew growing up. Maybe it was a witch thing.
She took his invitation for tea also meant an invitation for her to have a seat, so she sat down in one of the chairs. This professor certainly had a way to make ehr feel less nervous, she was glad he was her head of house.
