SPOILER!!: Eden <3

That was... a small understatement. Worthy of an eyebrow raise. "I do know." Ash listened to the rest of the the story without comment until the end(she wished Eden would stop trying to give her brother a heart attack though). She absolutely didn't want to know what 'chemically convincing' meant, by the way. Eden would be smart to not let her think about it. "So you're getting a head start on your career in potions? That's great! What have you done so far?" She smiled slightly. "Guess I need to start writing books and essays. Can't let you get too far ahead of me."(that was a joke.)

She stretched out in her chair. "Are you focused on any OWLs besides potions? Charms are always useful. And herbology could be relevant." Maybe CoMC, if Eden was taking that.

"You've missed so much stuff happening! Well, I suppose you could have read my letters. But I didn't write the whole time ~~because dead people didn't read~~. So much stuff happened. That's just how this place is." Ash took her OWLs... she got tattoos... her friend died... she cast spells at a board member... they had much catching up to do someday.

"Well, summer after third year I was supposed to spend July camping in Ecuador on this Potions scholarship program, but right before I went I got into some...trouble...back home and wasn't allowed to go." Eden needed to stop this from getting long winded. "But it was a really good opportunity and important for making connections for my career, so...I went anyway. I had some money saved from doing nails so bought a plane ticket and I already had a muggle passport, so I just flew, you know? I left a note. I was there for not a week when I got my first howler. From Elijah! He figured out how to send a HOWLER! I was actually proud of him. But he also got actual adult wizards involved and showed up via floo to ream me out in person the next day. Anyway, my teacher there managed to calm things down enough so I didn't go home. The kicker is that she liked me a lot more after that? It turns out she works for a small private school in New York and she offered to discount my rate to next to nothing and "keep me out of trouble", which essentially meant giving me a job in her Potions lab. I might have had to chemically convince Elijah into agreeing on that one? Which cost the rest of my money at the time, but whatever. I stayed in her spare bedroom. I came back to sit my O.W.Ls.
