She nodded as she listened to her concerns before pausing for a moment, thinking it over.
"Well, the good news is...this isn't the first time seventh years have had outside forces disrupt their plans for university," she said with a soft sigh. "So the universities have tended to be much more lenient on late applications and such," she assured her. Was it convenient? Absolutely not. But at least they were able to get in to their programs of choice without outside factors affecting them.
"But...I would be willing to meet with our...Headmaster and see what his thoughts are. Perhaps we can make an exception for our seventh years," she explained, although personally she had very little faith in the idea. Couldn't hurt to ask though? "And...no, I would imagine not. I don't think they want us leaving and being...possibly corrupted by muggle thinking," she said softly, as she was having the same line of thought the seventh year was - were they listening somewhere? Had they planted a bug in her office? Many of their victims would be visiting her, after all...
Little did Recard know how much her words flooded Aboli with as much relief as a good bathroom visit after drinking water through a late-night Astronomy class.
Merlin's socks, there was HOPE!
"Do you think universities know about stuff happening here, professor?" Again, Aboli's voice was even-keeled. She was so good at it at this point in her life, and she even smiled a very
wicked smile at her professor, because if she didn't smile, Recard might not KNOW what Aboli was GETTING at, yeah?
Christmas break was not a blow at this point. It was expected, and Aboli merely nodded.
"I understand their thinking," was her comment. She did. If she was part of an evil organization wanting to overturn muggles??? it sounded like and she had just taken over the best magical school as a first part of the ploy, she wouldn't want the students going home on break either. All she could do was hope that he'd let them apply still. "
Professor - Healer," she shifted her weight from her left to her right foot and tucked some of her newly-blonde hair behind her ear. "
I - I don't want you to get in trouble for anything. Not that I think this is worthy of trouble at all, but Headmaster Rosier...is intimidating to me," she admitted, unwilling to say SCARED because she didn't want to appear weak to listening ears.
"I can go talk to him to spare you getting into his poor graces. I think the man already dislikes me." Though, with how docile she was lately, she could hardly think he hadn't noticed that.
The usual Aboli!sass was gone. There was none this term, and least of all directed towards him.
