Well, Anna certainly felt silly for getting her ingredients all mixed up and brewed something Aurora was not brewing. On the plus side, she did have a rather hilarious but adorable visuals of a dragon nestled in one of those dog basket carrier things on a seat or just sitting in a seat by themselves on an airplane being served by a cabin attendant. "Ooooooooooh...so like...a dragon post service instead of an owl post service?" Because she couldn't think of any flying creature larger than a dragon that could carry heavy things. "Or...maybe something like what Beauxbatons uses to escort students to and from school?" Would probably take a while but it was something special to get to ride in a flying carriage! Not an opportunity she had ever been presented with yet so if it was an option for transporting their baby plushie dragons to their new forever homes then she was all for it! "Just thinking about floo makes you feel gross? Wonder why that is..." Give Anna a minute and she would manufacture some very colorful suggestions. "It hasn't been so bad the few times I've used it with family...but you're whole body has to be in it. Probably something like what happens when you don't apparate properly...floo splinching."
Anna blinked a couple of times and her brow twitched at Aurora's words - not about her not thinking about employment (because Circe knew she hadn't) but the doubt she had and the reluctance her friend had to grab the abraxan by the reins. It was another little tick on Anna's 'hmmmmm' list she was subconsciously putting together. "A hundred percent of snitch grabs not taken are never caught," she hummed with a little playful nudge and encouraging smile. "I've been thinking about applying for something myself...I can fill out an application with you if you'd like. Probably the sweets shop though...or maybe the bookshop...or beauty potions and makeup?" Probably sweets so she could finish her work day smelling sweet!
Anna had moved her toothbrush grooming technique down towards the tail scales and, though she wasn't sure they actually did this, Sunny sounded like she was purring. Was that it? Were dragons really just like big scaly kneazles? Smiling, Anna tucked the toothbrush away and began stroking Sunny's snout with her index finger - that WAS purring, right? "Albino or true Antipodean Opaleye, Fauna is gorgeous!" Sunny's eyes, which had been closed thanks to Anna's tender caress, slowly opened and let out a gentle snort before shifting the front half of their plushie body off Anna's lap and towards Aurora's dragon for a little nuzzle. "I mean...true...but these aren't actual dragons and the magic is attached to us and the biggest ingredient for magic is intent," the Hufflepuffle nodded sagely and confidently. That WAS the big sort of confusing thing about these dragon eggs...they hadn't needed to tend to them like actual dragon eggs (no heat) and then the care now wasn't really...actual dragon care either. Maybe the point was just to teach them all responsibility and having something completely dependent on you for its development AND being monitored by the professor was certainly one way to do that!
But, for now, Anna was not holding her breath that Sunny and Fauna wouldn't be besties too!
And TADA! Look at that! The moment Sunny had made a move - or maybe it had been after Fauna had made the first grand gesture...Anna had been thinking and therefore not entirely paying attention to the plushie dragons' movement - Fauna was coming over to say hello and Sunny was getting that nuzzle while flapping their own wings. "See!" she chirped with a big grin. "Now...do you think they flapped their wings to wave at one another because dragons do that to greet one another OR did they do that because we do that whenever we see each other from across some distance or another?" she asked while leaning her head against Aurora's while their arms linked together.
