He shook his head, laughing at Selena's comment. "The bird has a small body, and a big attitude. Her attacks are... well, they're somethin'." He remembered the time last term, when Jasmine and Annie's cat had gotten together, and Jasmine does not like cats. That wasn't exactly a happy meeting. "N.E.W.T.'s." he repeated, groaning quietly. "Yeah, those. And I'm not looking forward to them, I can tell you that." Was anyone ever excited for the big wizarding tests? And what did NEWT stand for, again? Nastily Exhausting Wizarding Tests, if Kel remembered right. Now that sounded wonderful. [/sarcasm]
Selena nodded. Unsure of what to say.
"You're welcome... I think?" she said, confused. Mmmhmm. Selena was fail. Hollie hooted in Selena's ear and she winced a bit. Ouch. At least Hollie didn't bite, that was reassuring. At least... she was pretty sure Hollie didn't bite. Eh. Whatever, as long as if Hollie didn't bite her she was fine.
"Well, she doesn't look like she eats people, so she's safe," Selena giggled. At least... she hoped the owl didn't eat people. Merlin! That would be impossible. Something not even one third of her height eating her! The owl wasn't even
one-fourth and Selena was short. Selena chuckled at his response to the mention of N.E.W.T.'s. Which she had forgotten what it stood for. Whatever, she couldn't really care anyways.
"Who looks forward to exams? They're made to make you suffer," Selena pointed out.
