One on one scenarios were not nearly as intimidating to her. So perhaps counseling or something of the sort would have been an okay career path option too, which she did decide on a whim to add to her list to look into. It was looking likely she would not have her major figured by the time she started university next term (which she also needed to decide on London or Paris) but that was okay. Everyone started with general education anyways… didn’t they? “Thank you. That’s nice of you to say. I just like to remind people that they’re generally more amazing than they remember.” Words of affirmation - she liked to give them.
It was just as obvious to Mouse was a sweet soul Keighley was, which was why she assumed there was no jealousy. But she also didn’t think jealousy was a inherently bad trait - it just mattered how someone acted on it. Everyone had moments of being jealous didn’t they? Even if not specifically relationship centered. But she was immensely relieved to hear he’d just been teasing her and there was nothing to be concerned about. Her smile relaxed again, and once more she gave a shake of her head. “It’s not a problem! And nothing to be sorry about!” She just didn’t want to inadvertently create an issue for the pair. “I’ll check my planner and send you a memo!” It would be fun to spend time with the pair!
It was admirable how much they all loved each other. Perhaps it wasn’t the most conventional of relationships, but at the end of the day it was clear they all just wanted each other to be happy, to feel protected and loved. Perhaps not as much when it came to Olivia and Charlie, but it was clear they both were able to focus entirely on Keighley’s feelings and needs. The way they loved was truly impressive to her. “It’s important all three of you are happy, however that looks like. And it seems like you are, which I’m glad to see.” For each of the three - truly. “Excellent! I look forward to studying together!” It would be nice to support each other on weaker subjects and be able to encourage discussions. Discussion often made a topic more memorable, at least for her. She was so surprised by Charlie’s mention of making sure she remembered him, even when she was rich and famous, Mouse couldn’t help the laugh of surprise, entirely forgetting to respond about the topic of families. “Bergstrand, please. You’ll be the famous Quidditch player far before I make a name for myself. I should be imploring YOU to not forget ME.”
