It was still rather cool, but definitely not what it had been weeks earlier. It was pleasant, even here amongst the trees, and she was glad she'd decided to come out here. Bowie was as well, as she had the little crup with her as she wandered. Precautions still made, as even if they were hidden from Muggles she didn't want most people knowing she hadn't had the heart to follow the law about her pet. Disillusionment spells worked just as well, for times like this.

She had to keep an eye on him, though. Any random rustle of leaves and he felt the need to scamper over in that direction. Luckily, he knew enough to not get too far from his mistress, but she tried to keep an eye on him anyway. In the meantime, she also kept glancing around the the new little leaves growing on the trees, and wondering how beautiful everything was going to be after not too much longer. She had her memories of Hogwarts, but the groundskeepers over the years had seemed to make everything even better than she remembered.

Even though it had not gotten off to the best of starts for him, Jared still found himself glad for the change in season. There seemed to be something beautifully bright and fresh about it, and it took his mind off less pleasant things, including damaged books and a certain detention. Hands in the lower pockets of his black robes, he inclined his head a little to avoid the branches of a rather short tree, as he followed one of the paths that twisted like a ribbon across the Hogwarts grounds.

Then he heard a rustle of leaves and the sound of something scampering and, almost extra-cautious as he had become since the incident in his office, might have frowned if he had not spotted a crup at just that moment and, behind the crup, a certain professor.

"Renée," he greeted.
