 Question for the Professor
She was a little sleepy again after eating such a big breakfast, but she had somewhere to be! She knew she wouldn't be able to pay attention on an empty stomach... It just never worked out. She felt her eye twitch as she got to class and found an open station. She wondered what kind of animal they would be observing today, but she didn't think they'd each get their own. Niffler maybe? No, that didn't make sense.
Okay... crups? Yea... Today was a good day. A small smile crossed Kye's face. She had loved playing with her cousin's crup when she visited them. Her parents didn't let her get one, but hey! Her professor would! Could they keep them? If he said no, she half planned to pocket hers... She wondered how she would keep it a secret from her roommates though..
Following suit, she got up and went to get a cruppy from the professor. It looked a bit shy and curious, kind of like a cat... Well, it was pretty small, maybe it was just extra wary by nature? This thing was adorable, she almost couldn't stand it. It's little blue eyes looking up at her innocently... She took it from the professor and went back to the station. She sat down cross legged and kept holding the little thing. She started talking to it and scratching behind its ears. It... 'It.' She realized it was a little boy named Levi. Ha. Because of the eyes right? That made sense... and was downright adorable.
"Hi Levi, how are you?" she cooed. She was normally really quiet, but she loved this. "I'm Kye and I get to take care of you, little thing."
He seemed to become more trusting. Her soft voice seemed to sooth any nerves the little thing was having and he lightened up. He let out a little bark ("aww...") and after another minute of cooing, Levi gave Kye a few kisses. Now Kye's smile was back. At the professor's next instruction, Kye picked up a brush and while still petting Levi, she started to brush him on the back. She figured the transition would help ease into it? He didn't even seem to notice the difference... She started brushing different sections to make sure he was still okay with it, and she did pretty well! There were a few knots in her hair, but Levi was a trooper. After she started brushing his head, he seemed to start enjoying it even. Good because if you live with me, this is how I'm picking up excess fur, so... you really have no choice!
Hmm... brush his teeth, huh? Now this was new to Kye. Sure, she brushed her own teeth, but she could only hope she had enough trust from Levi to be allowed to dig in its mouth. She put the paste on the toothbrush and held it near Levi's face, trying to get him to stop looking around. This proved a little difficult. "Levi... Leeeviiii. Levi." He didn't seem to be as in love with getting his teeth brushed. He would move his head about and try to get her to brush his hair instead.
"Ay, you little diva... Professor? Is there a way to distract him a bit, or is there a way to get him to be less fidgety when I brush his teeth?"
You know, this was probably the first time she had actually spoke up in class, but she was really into it. She was seriously thinking about pocketing Levi and sneaking him back up to the castle with her.
