Anastasia Bunbury was not an expressive, overly emotional, caring, kind, or considerate human being. Ever. She did not allow herself to be. But in the two short years she had taught at Hogwarts, she had actually come to like the two girls standing in front of her. Sure, Anna liked to babble sometimes and probably still hated Bunz for that one Cale... uh... incident, but overall she (and Lyra, duh) had been wonderful.
"Miss Greingoth, Miss Noir...." she greeted each lady with a nod. "It's been my pleasure having both of you for students and as Pink Ladies....and, I have something for you two."
Anastasia had to let out a little disappointed sigh as she reached down to the bag by her chair and pulled out two soft, light blue pouches and handed them across the table; one for Lyra and one for Anna. "I have one for Miss Corbette and Miss Toussaint as well, if you happen to see them..." she added quietly. Although Cela had a few terms before graduating, Anastasia liked to buy things in even numbers. Oh, Merlin! A gift of some kind from Professor Bunbury?!? That sounded exciting, as surely anything coming from the Herbology professor was sure to be completely awesome. Anna craned her neck a little in an attempt to get a sneak peek of whatever it was she was about to receive. Excited, much? Yup! You bet! A few seconds later, two, light blue pouches came into view, and Anna eyed them, completely fascinated by whatever it was inside of them.
She happily accepted the pouch that was handed to her and promptly pulled the little strings so as to open it. She pulled out a gorgeous, engraved and flashing pendant and held it up close to her eyes as she admired its beauty. "Oh, Professor! It's gorgeous! It's amazing! Thank you!" she exclaimed. Had she not thought she'd be hexed, she'd have come across the table and given the professor a little hug for all the thoughtfulness. As it was, though, Professor Bunbury didn't seem to be the hugging kind. It was always better to be safe than sorry. So instead, she settled for another thank you and a big smile. What a cool graduation present!
