Jude made this behaviour into a game, prodding Ned lightly in the belly then pulling his hand away before the cat could scratch or nip him. Most of the time Jude won but there were times when fresh scratch marks raked his skin. It was no big deal; the Hufflepuff was used to them by now.
This fluffy distraction was why he completely missed the flouncing and bouncing cousin that was his boyfriend’s. Not until she sang out his name, much like Keigh did, that is. “Oh hey, Minnie Mouse!” The seventh year grinned, and as he was distracted, Ned took full advantage by nipping his hand. “Ned Anders! You behave your fluffy butt in front of Mouse!” Ned meowed in a carefree manner then settled his head on his paws and closed his eyes.
Chuckling, Jude turned his attention back to his friend. “Settling in well, then? I haven’t forgotten about introducing you to ‘Beauxbatons’ Ballroom’, by the way. Tomorrow after classes okay with you?” Oh, he couldn’t wait to see the astonishment on Mouse’s face when he introduced her to the Room of Requirement! Cats were the most temperamental of creatures and Mouse had a healthy fear of them. Did she still want to smoosh and snuggle and pet? Yes, but she wouldn't unless that cat made it abundantly clear that's what it wanted based on how finicky the animals could be. She chuckled softly watching Jude with his, the little creature seeming to have his own attitude for the moment as he swiped at the Hufflepuff. She assumed this was normal, and cat owners like himself were probably very used to it, but still she gave a small gasp moved to check his arm. "Are you okay?"
Looking at the arm, and hearing the chastise, she couldn't help but give a small giggle at the words. "He must understand my name technically means he is higher in the food chain than myself." Maybe that was also why she had such a healthy fear of cats, it came with the name. "Cats really are so lucky they're adorable. They certainly get away with a lot." Was this true of all creatures? Absolutely.
Her head nodded at the inquiry and she took a step back from him again, smile fully back on her face. "I think I am! There are certainly a lot of friendly people here." But she was definitely very much looking forward to that introduction, and her eager nod in agreement to the time was probably a good show of that. "After classes tomorrow is perfect! As long as you have the time!" As a seventh year, she imagined he had quite a full plate.
