"I'm doing well, thank you for asking."

he resumed his place in the large leather chair and gestured toward the two smaller chairs on the other side of his desk. "Please, sit down. Would you like a chocolate?" he offered, gently sliding a glass candy dish toward her. "so what can I do for you today?"

Before anything else could happen, the little black and white cat on the condo behind the professor jumped down and approached Shera with a meow. Gaston laughed. "This is Phantom," he said, jerking his head toward the cat. "I think she's saying hi to you."

"Oui... ma mère est française," she figured it deserved an explanation, considering most Hogwarts students didn't exactly speak French. Not that it really mattered...

"That's great, and thanks professor!" she beamed at him, accepting a pit of chocolate from the professor. Because if you offered her any kind of snack there was no way that Shera would be able to refuse. Unless she was already eating something. Before she could go into why she had gone to him, a cat had jumped down onto his desk. She'd flinched back, not expecting the animal to suddenly be there. She then smiled at it before holding her hand out to let it sniff her to see if it wanted cuddles.

Because if it did, who was she to say no? "Hello Phantom," she cooed, before finally redirecting her attention to the Professor. Although, now she was going to have to visit him just to cuddle his cat.

"Well... I've got a question actually... well two, although I'm not sure if you're the right Professor to talk to about it," she admitted, shrugging her shoulders lightly. "I was wondering if... hypothetically you were in a formal situation but didn't want to wear dress robes, is there any kind of a charm that could be used to make it look like you were when you're just wearing jeans?"

It was definitely not a hypothetical question. It also may or may not have been directed to wearing school pants instead of a skirt. But he didn't need to know that.

"And I was also wondering if you could give me any advice on starting to learn non verbal magic... my wand is good with charms so I figured it would be a good place to start. Especially after I got hit with a tongue tying curse in defence against the dark arts recently..." she still glowered at the memory of that class. Her pride had definitely taken a hit.
