"Cela!" she said, spotting her. "Just look at this place. It looks fantastic!" She walked over to her and gave her a quick hug. "Thank you," she said. "But honey, you didn't have to do this. That's not why I asked you to stop by."
"Hi professor." Celandine returned the hug, a little more subdued than she normally was. "I know you didn't but I came down to see to Tiberius and Cassiopeia anyway and then I noticed Marmalade looked lonely," And Cela had no idea about what happened to Abby, "And then I thought I might as well keep going." Celandine explained in earnest.
Cela smiled in greeting to Livvy, Brody and Iris, the latter who she remembered from christmas tree decorating, and sort of watched in suprise as a bunch more students showed up and then Professor Lawson too.

As she approached the paddock fence, Iliana climbed up and stood on the lowest rung. "Hey," she said, unable to keep a small smile from crossing her lips. "I would have met you inside, you know. How are you feeling?"
Celandine listened as Professor Morgan gave everyone creatures to take care of and shook her head. "It's okay professor, I'll finish up here first. I've only done Cassiopeia and Tiberius and Marmalade's stalls." So like, still a few to go.
She watched Professor Morgan go over to Professor Lawson for a moment, then went right on back to cleaning out the stalls. She'd wait, it was fine by her and she didn't want to interrupt the two professors. She didn't like her smoochie!Cope abraxan time interrupted either.
