All of these things this Gryffindor didn't care much for, but he was willing to make an exception here.

"Right," he said, understanding why people were quick to give up on things that were too hard or simply took too long to get results. The blond honestly felt the same way about school, that his time would be better spent elsewhere. But, since he was here, he might as well hone in on his interests and everything. "Are you trying to scare me away, professor?" Kidding!

Oh, look! She smiled after he mentioned the potion. "Being an animal was ... interesting. Little odd at first, but I adjusted to it okay. Even if I was a stupid rat." Frankie was still sour about not getting the joy of being an eagle or even a parrot. He could have gotten into a lot of fun situations with the ability to fly without a broom. "Lasted about three hours, I think. Maybe a little longer."

Beatrice cracked a smile, "No, absolutely not. I think it's a very worthwile subject even for those who do not wish to become an animagus themselves. However, if you do wish to, then I completely support that." It's just good to know those things. Have some sort of expectation. Frankie seemed to understand what she was saying so far, which meant he wasn't about to change his mind. She wouldn't have wanted to scare him away.

She nodded along as he explained being an animal, and let out a chuckle at his obvious distaste of being a rat. "Well... just keep hoping at the end of the process you don't turn into a rat." Ahh, Beatrice would put her hope out there for the lad. If he didn't wish to become a rat, then she would have HATED to see him become a rat. There was no exchanging your animagi animal. She was impressed with the three hours, too. "I'm glad that you said you adjusted to it okay, because a lot of the process of becoming an animagus is actually getting used to being an animal, by different means. There's a mixture of potions and transfiguration. Of course, you don't need to be gifted in potions, as you can get help from Professor Culloden, or someone else gifted in potions, or you can get someone to make the potions for you anyway. However, transfiguration is something you do need to be good at. So, my first piece of advice is to hone in on your transfiguration skills. How do you currently feel about the subject and your abilities?"

All of this talking had given Beatrice a dry mouth, and she summoned two glasses and a jug of water, and two mugs. She poured the two glasses full of water, pushing one towards Frankie, and said "Would you like a hot drink? Tea, hot chocolate?" She took a sip from her water.

Today was the day she would speak to one of her Professors about this special form of Transfiguration that she was hoping to learn. So it was with great hope that Hady raised her hand without much hesitation and knocked on Professor York's door to her office this morning. She was ready to get the talk going and maybe with any luck on her side some information or possibly even lessons. One way or another she would find out if she had what it took.

Just doing her morning stretches, with Beamer being a little bugger and weaving in and out between her hands and legs, Beatrice heard a knock at the door. She stood up, banished her yoga mat, and answered her office door. The smile was already there, but seeing that it was the lovely Hady just pushed it higher up on her face. "Hady, dear, how are you? Please come in," she said, stepping aside to let the young Slytherin in.
