The Hufflepuffle needed to take a moment to consider Aurora's question, specifically the element of planes because she had never considered any sort of transcontinental travel outside of portkey. Wizards and witches traveled with creatures by portkey, didn't they? Not that she would know if there were any wizarding laws against such a thing since she had never thought to read about it and if it had popped up during a History of Magic lesson then she had most certainly not been paying attention. "I suppose that too would depend on the manner of the travel...though I wouldn't think the Ministry would approve of traveling with such a creature by muggle means," she pondered with a thoughtful tap tap tap upon her cheek. "You'd probably have to make multiple stops if you went by floo...and I imagine that would be rather impractical." Maybe they would get luck and Mr. Derfael would just so happen to be returning a creature to somewhere across the ocean and they could accompany him to see the process first hand!
A duo of girls could dream.
Anna KNEW that Aurora would do it justice, or it seemed obvious to her that the Ravenclaw would. With such a compassion heart as she carried there really was no other logical outcome. "OH! You'll be of the right age for one of those Diagon Alley positions this summer! Maybe you can get a position at the Menagerie!" Where they had adopted Merriweather and therefore it all coming into full circle. Anna probably should be looking into such things, especially with her questionable spending tendencies, but the thought had not crossed her mind at all. Didn't help that she truly had no solid idea of where he ambitions lay other than making people smile...but you could do that in an infinite number of ways.
Patience was certainly something that came selectively with this particular duo. In their heart of hearts, they both were very patient with people and less patient with themselves, but Anna for one was already grateful to Sunny for teaching her a bit more of that AND to trust the process of life more as well - the latter in particular being a hard pill to swallow these days. Anna ended up blushing to to the prolonged pause that came in trying to remember how the word flower and flour were spelled, a hiccup that would have been a little embarrassing if she were not so excited about the hatching of their two GORGEOUS dragons. "There are albino breeds of practically every creature on earth, right?" Like that one girl who worked in the plant shop in Diagon Alley and who Anna was CONVINCED was actually a unicorn in human form. No one looked that graceful and had pale violet eyes without being mystical! Anna's was certainly not the sort though and she squealed as the Welsh Green completed its crawl out of the eggs and right into the sixth year's lap. Squealing even louder, Anna rummaged through her bag for an old toothbrush that she then immediately took to the hatchling and began to tenderly scrubbed its scales and spikey bits which seemed to shine and sparkly even more beautifully after she was done.
"Huh? why would they hate each other?" Anna asked with her head tilted so far to the side she resembled an owl, her efforts in polishing and grooming her hatchling put on temporary pause. Come to think of it, had Aurora been a little cloudy compared to her more sunlit and encouraging personality - she was allowed to be this, of course, but it was just a little jarring to experience. "Because they look different and are a difference species from one another? I wouldn't think so, not with us for parents and how we raised them while they were in their eggs. I mean...they listened and shared music together and I've been told that is one of the more intimate things you can do with another person....or dragon in this case."
