But the circling ceased when one of the students, a boy, got down on his level and reached a hand out? Bess, as her tag read, was not immediately trusting but… petting did feel good. She took a few steps forward, sniffing out the outstretched hand. Before another step closer, another sniff. Another, and another sniff.
He certainly smelled harmless. So with that decision, Bess nudged her head under the boys hand so he could properly pet her. The girl then offered a hand as well, and Bess repeated the process, forcing the outstretched hand to pet her once which was invitation that she could now proceed to do so.
Say, did either of them have treats? She sniffed for it.

She studied his face for a moment, worried what he’d think of her reason for hiding. Would he think she was a ditz? The reassurance eased her mind and got a small smile in reply. What a princely thing to say!
Whoa, what? She actually got it right?! Desiree was all smiles as the professor acknowledged her. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught Jude’s grin and returned it with a beaming smile, but there wasn’t much time to dwell on her success before the lesson moved on. She listened carefully to the professor. The notice about wearing clothes they wouldn’t mind getting dirty made a lot more sense now! Piggies were dirty, and if a nogtail looked like one, it seemed possible that it would act like one too.
She tried to think of a fact about the nogtail to give, but she had more questions than anything else. Why was it called a nogtail? Was its tail the color of eggnog or something? What exactly did the nogtail’s curse do? Turn people into frogs? Or hideous beasts? Make them sleep for a hundred years? Why was it only black white dogs that could chase it away? And what if someone could turn themself or something else into a white dog? Her dad worked with several transfiguration professors who were animagi… none that could turn into dogs that she knew of, but the question remained. Of all her questions, that one weighed most on her mind, so that was the one she asked. “Professor, if a white dog chases away nogtails, could someone or something transfigured into a white dog do the same?” she asked after raising her hand.
Desiree wasn’t sure she wanted to face a nogtail, but at least it wasn’t a water demon! She blinked, unsure whether to be curious or worried as the fence appeared. She eyed the shed, half-expecting a mob of nogtails to burst out at any moment, but instead she saw DOGGIES!!! Asdfjkl!!! So cute!
Her face immediately brightened, and she had to bite her tongue to stop herself from squealing out loud. Her blue eyes darted from Jude to the approaching Miniature Bull Terrier and back. She smiled, nodding emphatically. “You can say that again!” she replied. Nope, she wasn’t afraid of dogs! Water demons, yes; nogtails, probably, but not cute little doggies! Following Jude’s lead, she crouched, offering a hand to the dog. “Hi, doggy! I like your ears; they’re so cute and pointy!” Would it let her pet it now?
He and Desiree were going to have a great time with this lesson! Jude just knew it. He watched as their doggo sized them up. He didn’t mind: it was good not to be so trusting {something which he definitely needed to learn}. The Hufflepuff held still, letting the doggo make up its mind. He really didn’t think of a reason for it to not like him: Jude happened to have pure intentions every single moment of his life. The tactic worked! He was being sniffed at and the doggo came closer for him to pet and to read the tag. “Bess. Hi, Bess! It’s so nice to meet you!” The older Hufflepuff patted her cute little head. “You’re a pretty girl, did you know?”
Desiree was certainly right about those pointy ears! But they were all part of Bess’ beauty. “Oops. With all the doggie excitement, I forgot to grab some treats. Hang on. I’ll be right back!” Jude hastily got to his feet, grabbed the treats and was back in about a minute. “Here, Desiree. You can feed her too.” Jude shared some with his partner then held two of the treats out for Bess. |
