astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf So, the day had come. Anna wasn't sure how exactly she felt about the end of the assignment, truth be told, and it was not because she hadn't enjoyed it, because she had enjoyed it immensely. By an ironic twist of fate, Anna hadn't been able to dive into her immersive imagination and suspend her reality enough to look at her egg and think of it as a real egg nor the actual dragon that hatched from it as an actual dragon. There was a disconnect...which made her think that she had done the Care of Magical Creatures assignment wrong.
It had been SOOOOOO much fun coming up with unique ways to set the stage for her eventual hatching and getting to use tools and gifts that were often left for decoration about her dorm room. She certainly had gotten plenty of kilometers out of her music box! It had also been great taking Sunny, as an egg, to drama rehearsals and surrounded them with theatrics and well spoken passions. Not to mention the singing practices too! Even Merryweather had taken to the egg and, when it was Anna's turn to care for the pygmy puff, snuggled up with the egg. She liked to think that this was to help keep the egg warm even though that wasn't a requirement for egg care ... unless the pygmy puff knew something she didn't!
Anna was reluctant to return Sunny now, truth be told, but she supposed that she had to do so so that Professor Paton could remove the enchantments placed upon her plushie body. As much fun as it would be to have lots of plushie dragons waddling around the castle, it would probably be a bit of a hazard with other's familiars and Peeves would most certainly have a hayday with all these animated creatures. No, Anna supposed that Headmaster Winterbottom wouldn't fancy that very much even if he resembled the muggle version of Santa Claus. Her mum and dad probably wouldn't be too keen on her coming home with an enchanted dragon plushie either - particularly dad with all of his finicky work items he had at home. Would just be Anna's luck that her baby dragon plushie would learn to breathe fire and completely torch his designs and records. Still, as much as she understood the need for such enchantments to be removed...she sure hoped the professor wouldn't do so right in front of the Hufflepuffle because she really didn't want to see the magic'k life taken from her body. Oh, look at that! She did view Sunny as a real flesh and blood dragon a little bit after all. That was certainly a nice revelation!
In any event, Anna was here now to temporarily return Sunny to the professor and...get her back today as well? Anna would be holding on to her dragon baby until summer break since she and Aurora had some big big BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG plans once their Creatures and Cwtches Sanctuary volunteering started up! "Don't fret, Sunny. You'll be seeing me again soon. I just need to hand you over to Professor Paton for a....a little check up," she assured the dragon in her arms and with its head resting on the little Hufflepuffle's shoulder. "I'll play the music box for you after."
She may be tearing up just a little.
