He actually WAS following with what she was saying; to get into Auror training you needed to KNOW about Herbology and Potions and all that lark, after all.
"Sounds fascinating," Jake replied, though he wondered by this point if she might think he was being sarcastic or something, because people DID tend to believe that with his tone of voice. There was a brief moment in which he had an internal debate over whether or not he cared about coming across as such, but quickly decided that, this time, he did. "What plants are you working with at the moment?" Or was it perhaps just as many as possible.
Uh.
Hm.
Jake sort of made a face at that point. Twisting his mouth a little in a not-quite-pursed-lips sort of expression, before finally shrugging a shoulder.
"It was. At first. I had my motivations, at least," he replied looking over the many juice jugs and all their different colours. "Turns out my passion wasn't for law enforcement after all." There, that was a simple enough explanation, because he wasn't sure now was the time to get into it. He hardly knew Emmalee, after all. "I do. At the end of the year, if all goes to plan."
