SPOILER!!: Bryony ^_^

Norman was alerted to the young Slytherin’s presence not by the vanishing cabinet but by the knock at the door. He looked up from the lesson plan he was working on and checked the mini cabinet on his desk. He read the form, sticking it into the pocket of his robes as he stood. Animagus training… he was wondering when that might come up.

“Hello, Miss Paton,” he greeted as he opened the door. “Please come in, have a seat.” He stood to one side, gesturing toward the two smaller armchairs in front of his desk.

SPOILER!!: Sage ^_^

Norman resumed his place in the larger armchair behind the desk, He returned Ransom-Kruus’s smile with a slight one of his own. Her initial “maybe” got a slight eyebrow raise in response. He half-expected her to lie about her progress and insist everything was fine - he’d worked with this age group long enough to know what to expect, and that was exactly what he would’ve done himself at that age. He was pleased when that didn’t happen.

He nodded “Incomplete transformations are usually caused by impatience during the process, though I doubt that’s the case here,” he said. “I wouldn’t have let you move on to the next steps at any point, had anything been rushed or incorrect.”

He scratched his chin, lost in thought for a moment as he tried to riddle out the cause of the incomplete transformations. “My guess is it’s something mental, so as a matter of interest, what does it feel like when you transform? Any pain? Hesitation?” He realized it may seem like an odd question, but it was important to help him get to the root of the problem.

Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ Dark Brooding Girl ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll SPOILER!!: Bryony ^_^ Quote: Originally Posted by Kolyander There was something new that Bryony wanted to began working on this year that may not come as any surprise to a few people very close to her. As for others, well, they might be quite shocked by it. The fourteen and a half year old wanted to begin her Animagi Training early. As in this year under the guidance of her Transfiguration Professor. The same exact way both of her parents had learned done so many years earlier. Annnnd for the record, no, she didn't want to do this because they had. It may look that way to others but this was about her, deeper training for what she wanted to do with her future. But maybe it did help that she already knew exactly what to expect and how difficult this entire process was going to be. Bry had mentioned it in passing many times over the years when she was younger, but this past summer was when she seriously brought it up to her parents. Roughly ten weeks of very serious talks about what this training consisted of, why she wanted to do this, who all she needed to talk to and every single thing in between. Her parents knew they couldn't make her nervous, when she wanted something... She would keep at it. Not that they had told her no. Having them backing her up was all she every knew. Bry made her way to the Professors office the first free moment she had shortly after returning back to school. Visits to professors offices wasn't something she did on the regular but she was familiar with the little magical vanishing cabinet outside of this office. So with the use of her own colorful quill, the note was quickly filled out and placed into the cabinet, the little door was then closed. Name: Bryony Paton Year: Fourth House: Slytherin Reason for visit: To discuss hopefully beginning Animagi Training. Moving towards the door, Bry gave a gentle knock. Now all she could do was, wait. Norman was alerted to the young Slytherin’s presence not by the vanishing cabinet but by the knock at the door. He looked up from the lesson plan he was working on and checked the mini cabinet on his desk. He read the form, sticking it into the pocket of his robes as he stood.

Naturally, her go-to defense was to deny and lie but not only was that an obvious hoax considering her purpose of being here but also Professor Carton had broken down that layer of her stubborn pride somewhere around the middle of her fourth year when there was literally nowhere to hide with certain practice rituals. It was frustrating and bruised her pride but whatever. Chalk it up to being an essential part of growing up and blah blah blah. "Maybe," she nodded while folding her fingers over her knees, not entirely shaking that pride shield for another half a second more in spite of herself. "....yes...sometimes it isn't small like my hand to a hoof...one time over the summer I had to ask papa to undo the transformation because I resembled a knock off satyress. Was left with horns only just once...but mostly it is my limbs, an arm or leg or hand or food, that doesn't quite seem to get the memo. Never my voice or face...just...limbs." So at LEAST she was consistent on that front. Norman resumed his place in the larger armchair behind the desk, He returned Ransom-Kruus’s smile with a slight one of his own.
