Originally Posted by Nordic Witch Leo was raising his teacup to take a sip when Haddie stood up from the table dramatically, narrowed her eyes at him and stormed out of the Great Hall with the cupcake in hand. She was clearly angry and upset at him for agreeing with his colleague in the animagi matter. Leo sighed and took a sip of tea. Haddie had to learn patience. She'd get her chance to study animagi soon enough. Now she was too young. Leo turned his attention to Rachel after Haddie had left the hall, that once again came to Haddie's defence. Waving the apology away he said with a sigh. "It's fine Rachel. You don't need to apologise for Haddie's behaviour. She has to do that herself." It was the only way that she'd learn. It was a part of growing up and maturing.
Nodding he agreed. "It's clear that Haddie really wants to learn to become an animagi but she needs to work on her patience and how she reacts in the face of letdowns." It was a part of life. You couldn't always get what you wanted right when you wanted it. Life didn't work like that. Thoughtfully Leo admitted. "It could be a compromise if Professor Ichiara would be willing to let Haddie learn the theoretical aspects of animagi, but that is something that Haddie has to take up with Professor Ichiara herself." Meaning it was not Rachel's place to do it. Haddie had to do it by herself. It was her wish and thus her fight. Reaching out to pat Rachel on the arm he smiled "We're both doing all right and in just a few months we'll get to see our loved ones for the length of the summer break. So hang on to that." Leo was secretly counting down the days and months until he got to see Cassie and Jackson again.
Smile broadening slightly he said "I'm glad that you've found some favourite subjects even if it's a slightly odd combination of plants and numbers. Potions can be tricky sometimes. Just remember to take it slow and follow the recipe to the letter."
Finishing his breakfast, Leo said "It was nice to enjoy my breakfast in your company Rachel. I think you should be a good friend and go look for Haddie now and do something fun with her." He had work to get to in the library. "I know,'' Rachel said with a sigh of resignation. She loved Haddie but the other girl needed to realise when she was being rude or immature. Honestly, Rachel was not forcing Haddie to do this. No, she was confident her best friend would see it someday. She was confident of this.
Listening to Mr Kitridge, Rachel drew from his words that it was Haddie's battle to fight. An idea occured to her- perhaps she could help Haddie with the theory of Animagi. Haddie could then speak to Ichihara some more on the topic and maybe the Professor would be so impressed with her vast knowledge on the topic that she would finally agree to teach Haddie. Yes, this sounded like a plan and Rachel would talk it over with her friend later on. "I appreciate your thoughts, Mr Kitridge, I really do.''
How had she not thought of that? Her Head of house was right. They needed to hold on to the prospect of seeing their families in a few months again. "That will make thing very easy.'' Then she was giggling. "Odd combinations are not so bad.'' But she nodded. "I will certainly do so,'' she said, feeling a rush of gratitude towards the man for his words of encouragement.
The dark haired girl swallowed some pumpkin juice before standing up. "I think you're quite right. I will see you later, Mr Kitridge. Have a good day.'' With another smile, she gracefully departed her House table. |
