She always found it gross to listen to other people blow their noses hardly. It was a bizarre tick of hers. She took one more tissue to wipe her eyes, tossed both in the trash, before washing her hands with soap. She breathed in and out slowly, calming herself.

“Yeah...”

Saying that she was crying over a chameleon probably sounded a little silly and dramatic now in perspective but.. it was a big deal. Not like a bully big deal but still a BIG DEAL. This was the first pet that she had bought with her own money from lemonade and brownie stand sales over the summer. Her eldest brother had been with her the time she had bought it but it was Max who helped her find it. And she would be grateful to her Ravenclaw friend for his help. “I am... Probably silly but he’s the first creature that I’ve ever bought. We have a family dog, Bennet, and my brother as a cat. But.... this one is my own pet...” Losing Pascal meant she was irresponsible and not as mature as she thought she was.

~~MATURE? As if...pfft~~

She got to the ground again and Alfie told her that she wasn’t a bad chameleon parent. Lisa blinked her wide brown eyes ~~ones she referred to as mud-dud mudkip~~ as he began searching with her. He was being so nice. So so nice! What did she ever do to deserve a friend like him?!?

“Thanks Alfie. You’re the best.” In that moment, she realized that she still had his packet of tissues and she gave out a little ‘Oh’ before handing it towards him. “Your tissue packet...” With that, she got back down and began sorting through piles. Nope... he wasn’t over here....

“Do you have pets?”

Alfred calmly waited for her to finish blowing her nose and wiping her eyes. He too found it gross when someone blew their nose loudly, so he was thankful that Lisa had done it discreetly. "No problem. I carry tissues on me all the time." He waited for her to calm herself before listening to her explanation."It's not silly. To be honest, I would probably cry too." That wasn't entirely true, but he definitely would at least panic and likely start hyperventilating. He hyperventilated most times he panicked anyway.

Alfred went back to thoroughly looking through the laundry to find this chameleon. He checked everywhere, including the pockets. He looked up when Lisa handed him the tissue packet, but he turned it down. "You can keep it." He had another in his pocket anyway. "Yeah, me and my uncle have a tabby cat called Pepper. He didn't let me bring it to school though." His uncle was very attached to it, and thought Alfred would lose it in the castle somehow. Alfred lost a lot of things, so it was probably justified.
