I guess with the way things are being run now...I just thought it was better to be sure now than find out different at the end of the term.” Surely even he could see the school year was off to a...er.....questionable start.
“I guess that means I have another question. He’s been staying here, in the stables and I think he’s made friends with the others. When I take him, he’ll be alone. Is there any way....I could maybe....adopt another one this year? I’d like to spend the year getting it accustomed to me so it’s not such a shock later—but of course that’s only if it’s okay with you.”
For the most part, Jessa’s pets were able to fit in her arms. Having an aethonan was a whole different experience and not a bad one.
“There’s an interesting novelty in having live pets, wouldn’t you say?” Of course, she loved her undead babies but Dexter and her modified rabbit Barnaby were interesting additions too. Tristan listened to her concerns, and wasn't surprised to find it was because of the way school was being run now and all of the new rules that were in place. But as far as he was concerned, she had legitimately adopted Dexter. No one could stop her from taking him when she graduated. "I completely understand your concerns and don't blame you one bit for wanting to be sure. But legally Dexter is yours and no one can take him from you, not even the Headmaster." He hated saying that word. It didn't sit well with him at all that Regina was gone, but he had to be neutral right now.
Tristan had to think about that next request for a moment. "I will have to get back to you on that, unfortunately. But there is a possibility that you may be able to. There are a few babies in the Infant Barn. You should go check them out and see which one you get attached to and we can go from there." He wasn't sure if it would be possible for him to allow students to adopt, given the current climate of the school, but he would do his best to make it happen.
That next...statement of sorts...though shocking didn't really surprise him coming from Jessa. He knew about her undead experiments. "Yes, well, most pets typically are living." He said with a small grin. Quote:

But... a project?
... really?
He was BEAMING. "I'll write a full book on it!" Psh, a simple project was for amateurs. He would happily replace sleep with writing a whole book on acromantulas. Arachnophobic Around Acromantulas, he would call it. Boy, was this exciting!
But wait... what was professor Wayland doing... pulling his jacket on... what... OH. "You-you mean right-? Right now?" MERLIN'S BEARD, RIGHT NOW? REALLY REALLY? "I mean-mmm!" Yep, his lips were sealed, and he would not talk unless professor Wayland said it was okay to talk. Got it.
... now he didn't need to know that Daehyun ran as fast as a mad turtle, but hopefully it wouldn't get to that.
Shutting up, he followed. "You'd better," he said quietly to himself as he began is walk toward the forest. Tristan was not excited for this adventure, but he would do everything in his power to make sure it was a safe one.
He stopped and turned around completely, "Of course I mean now, Daehyun. No time like the present. Plus, the quick we get this over with the quicker we can be back to safety. If we go any later in the day they will be hungry and if we wait until next week or next month even they will be getting ready to hibernate and we don't want to be there for that." He said wide eyed and with a pointed look.
He quickly patted his jacket to make sure his wand was there, and breathed a sigh of relief when he felt it, pulling it out of his jacket. He looked at the young man, "Wand out at all times. I hope you know the spider repelling spell." He turned and stalked off toward the forest. Quote:

Uniforms weren’t meant to be worn near the barns now were they?
Raising her hand she began pounding on the door, each second made her heart race. She was breaking the rules – so many of those new rules right now by acting this way. Messy uniform – check, being outside this close to dinner – check, being defiant…well that was a triple check.
”Professor Wayland?” she called out, as she knocked again. She wasn’t out of breath, no, she was nervous.
Tristan had just sat down with a cuppa and a book he had started to read when a frantic knock came at the door. He sighed, it had gotten to a really intense scene and he really didn't want to put it down. BUT, duty calls. He quickly set the book down and his tea, and jogged to the door.
It sounded like Anabeth, but he wasn't sure until he pulled the door open. "Hey, hey, whats wrong? Is everything alright?" And then he saw it. The slightly crumpled up letter with Julian Scrimgeour's signature at the bottom. "I'm just going to take that, thank you." Before she could respond he started to read and his face when from a content concern to furious anger.
"Where did you find this, Anabeth? Has Professor Stewart already left?" He asked calmly, despite the whirlwind of hatred flowing through him.
