He raised his hand for Webster to climb onto, gazing suspiciously at the vial as he did so. "You... erm... haven't got any water I could have, do ya?" he asked, for not only did he want to be ready, but he had a real splitting headache. "Sorry..."
Moving his hand around to prevent Webster getting much further, Jake gazed at the apparently pregnant tarantula. How the hell does she know that? "Of course I do. Let me get it for you." She said, handing Charlotte back to Kayla. Then she walked around her desk and poured Jake a glass of cold water from the pitcher nearby. When she returned, she handed it over, giggling at how adorable he was with Kayla's spider. Quote:

Her face broke into a smile when the Professor announced that she was going to be fine and then immediately followed up with one of complete shock. "She's what?" Kayla squeaked, her baby was going to have babies!! Kayla sat there stunned for a couple of minutes letting this piece of news sink in and then finally she let out a squeal. "Oh my god, oh my god, she's going to be...I'm going to be...oh my god" she repeated again.
"Well this changes everything I'll have to order a tank from Diagon Alley, so that I can set up the nursery for the babies that are coming. I can't have her wandering around anymore and it might be a good idea not to carry her under my hair either, in case you know she goes into labour or whatever tarantula's do. I haven't read that far into it" Kayla threw herself back against the chair and let out an excited giggle. "This is so amazing. How many do you think she will have?" Oh she hadn't actually thought about that, what was she going to do with numerous tarantula's running around? Iliana held up one finger and said, "Hold that thought." Then she walked over to her bookcase and pulled a medium-sized glass aquarium down. "Will this do for a nursery?" She asked, setting the tank on her desk. "You are more than welcomed to it; I'm not using it right now."
The walking around was starting to be too much, so Ili pulled out her desk chair and took a seat. Smiling faintly at Kayla so that would understand why, she swiveled the chair to face her and said, "As far as her babies are concerned, brace yourself, dear." She said. "A female tarantula can deposit from 50 to 2000 eggs, depending on the species. She will lay them in a silken egg sac and guard it for about 6 to 7 weeks. During this time, she will want to stay very close to the eggsac and is likely to become more aggressive. So be careful not to excite her too much." She said. "Also Kayla, the young spiderlings will need to remain in the nest for some time after hatching so that they live off the remains of their yolk sac before dispersing." She explained. "If its easier for you, they can stay here with me. That way, we can both keep an eye on them and you won't have to worry about your dorm mates disturbing anything." Quote:

Perhaps she would allow him to do charms homework on her property. It was worth a try and if it didn`t work out he`d just put it on the whoping willow or something. He lifted a hand and knocked on the door Quote:

And she wanted to thank Professor Morgan, but she really hadn't gotten the time till now. She also wanted to ask her about sticking that Poster up. Surely students would see it in an Professor's office.
When she got to the door, she knocked it twice, before taking a few steps back and waiting. Hearing the knocking at her door, Professor Morgan called out, "Come in, the door's open."
