As for the Ravenclaw's advice...it was a little disconcerting to get advice on caring for creatures from a teenager. She smiled encouragingly at the girl before holding the next piece of meat up for one of the thestrals. Once it started eating, she reached a her other hand out, tentatively patting its...face? Neck? Probably its neck, if she had to guess. Still weird. But, Dahlia was right, they weren't that different from the winged horses.

"Not all creatures want to be showed love by wizards, though," she cautioned. Sure, the creatures in the barn and pastures were mostly friendly, when treated properly, but there were plenty of creatures out there who wanted nothing to do with humans. Or even those who thought humans would be a tasty snack.
A very small brief nod of her head was given in response to Professor Paszek. For several moments it may have looked like she wasn't going to say anything else but that was only because all of her attention had once more returned to the thestrals. One second there was a hefty chunk of meat on the palm of her hand and the next it was gone. "There you go.. now you're nice and full, hmm.." she hummed softly, reaching out her other hand to lightly run the tips of her fingers along the side of it's face.

"Some want to carry you off and bring you back to their den and make a meal out of you." She was most definitely speaking from experience right then. "But it's not to be held against them, they are only behaving as they should. All creatures all should be treated with caution and care.. as well as respect. Sometimes it's best to know when to leave well enough alone." That's what her sister always told her.
