"No problem," she replied, eyeing the boy curiously. Not much of a talker was he?

Hmmm... "But why not Professor? You would look good with a family now. You're in the right age." Oh, bless the not so little anymore Ravenclaw girl, she hadn't realized she'd been meddling in the Professor's personal life. But once it has started, there's no way to put a stopping to it.. "Oh, I heard you and Professor Scabior are..errm...close." She said. Maybe you could soften him, she thought.
It was a good thing Seren hadn't reached for the tea, otherwise it would have ended up all over her desk and possibly on the Ravenclaws face. The right age? Look good with a family? ... was she really that old looking?
And the icing on the cake. Her.... with Dash
hound. Oh heck no.
"Uhh I suggest you find a new source for gossip, they clearly don't know what they're talking about." No.. she and Dash were NEVER going to happen.
SPOILER!!: Ariadne

Is the Colosseum as impressive in reality as it is described in books?' The girl's curiosity got the better of her. She really wished to see more of the world someday.
Returning to the subject of classes, Ari went a step further with her problem. 'Sounds interesting, but...Professor, I'm sure you've noticed that I'm not so good with plants. Which is a pity really, since my dream is to become a wandmaker, and for that I need to be able to identify and work with many different types of wood. Do you know anything that might help my studying of Herbology?' She wasn't going to give up her ambition just because of a few plants!
"No unfortunately I didn't, I spent most of my time in the lovely city Perugia." Though perhaps the touristy type thing would be nice to do one day... after she was done exploring the wildlife.
As the girl continued, Seren couldn't help but smile to herself. Sure the girl wasn't a natural... but she wasn't hopeless.
"Really the only advice I can give you is to practice, read and practice some more. If its woods you're particularly interested, I suggest walking through the grounds and gardens and identifying what we have here... seeing as you're not allowed in the forest and all." Which was a shame, seeing as that was where most of the trees were at. Of course.
SPOILER!!: Gideon

Adam?
Um...yeah he guessed he could help him too. Gideon had forgotten the fact that there was a male prefect as well since Kurumi had been the only one around to his knowledge. "Aye...I am," he answered truthfully. "As much as summer is fun, the break gets drab after awhile."
"Wait...which Adam?" he asked, a thought plaguing him.There were two Gryffindor Adams that he could think of so it was a valid question, at least in his mind at the time.
Ahh yes the drabness of summer... Seren knew it well. Unless she was surrounded by flesh-eating trees or lichen or toadstool she found it was an utter bore. Hence why she traveled abroad so often.
"I know where you're coming from," she mused, still thinking about the week she spent at her mothers place in Cardiff.
Which Adam? .. oh that would be right, the boy had been absent, silly her.
"Adam Burn dear." SPOILER!!: Presley

She still wasn't happy about the fact that she'd gotten so attatched to it that she'd lost her sense and almost let the stupid thing eat her.
"I don't think I've ever seen Perugia either, but isn't that where Hadley is from?" Professor Hadley Presley mentally corrected herself. She needed to get into the habit of addressing teachers properly if she ever wanted Tate to skip her up a year.
She popped up out of her seat with another quick grin. "I'd actually better get going if I want to be on time for Charms. Thanks for letting me stop by!" As always, she held out her hand for Bentley to shake, politeness and manners were usually key with making adults who like you keep liking you. And Presley just did not need another person to be angry with her just now. Especially if Charmayne had broken her word and told Leo about how rude Presley had been when the two met..
"Professor Hadely, and yes in fact I spent the three weeks with her and her family." It was such a lovely vacation, and it was so good to see Alex again. It never ceased to amaze her how different people seemed after school.
Time to go? Seren checked the time on her pendant watch which hung loosely around her neck.
"Ahh yes, that time already. Good luck dear," she said standing to shake Auroras hand.
"Thank you for coming, it's good to see you again."
