SPOILER!!: our fave, Claudine

"Well... I'll pay next time we go somewhere, then." She was certain that there would be a next time- if Ash was around, then surely Claudine would be too, and then there was no reason not to meet up. "My stepmother and both of my half-brothers are living together because Brandon and my Father... don't interact. Only Brandon doesn't like her either. And I obviously can't take care of my brother, I'm too... I'm not really a proper adult." She sighed. "I wish Brandon would let our stepmother take care of him. He's acting like his own adult and trying to be all independent, but he's a kid." It ran in the family, she supposed. "So that's my family." She chose not to ask about Claudine's family, figuring that Claudine wouldn't want to.

"One time I painted my boyfriend sitting in my apartment. Would that work for both? And I could show you pictures on my phone." She accepted the shoulder rub, relaxing a little. She knew she could count on Claudine, she just hoped she wouldn't need to. "I put half of Hufflepuff up to making sure Brandon's doing alright. He has people." Just because she wasn't at Hogwarts didn't mean she couldn't look after her little brother. She could, and she did. "My new tattoo is a watercolor bouquet of flowers on my shoulder!" As always, she smiled when talking about her tattoos.

Ash listened to Claudine talk about school and life. "If and when you move back, you and Heath can come over to my place all the time. Do you prefer one of those potential jobs over the other?"

SPOILER!!: our fave, Claudine Quote: Originally Posted by FearlessLeader19 No, not at all. Claudine had always despised anyone getting into her personal space but over the years that had changed a bit. Now, it was only those whom she loved with all her heart did she tackle and shower this much physical affection upon. The young woman huffed with a smile. “I don’t have to but I would like to.” Oh yes, she knew Ash was independent but even the most independent of persons needed to put that on the back burner on occasions. This was something that Heath had taught her. Now, if there was one of the main things Claudine and Ash had in common, it was the turbulent relationship they shared with their respective families. Perhaps this was why she honed in on the family issue first. “What’s up with your family?” Already Claudine was bracing herself for the news. Family was just… complicated. “And tell me all about your beau! Have you got any pictures of your apartment you can show me?” Poor Ash. She looked so tired. Claudine reached out to rub Ash’s shoulder understandingly. “I’m happy to hear that your plans are falling into place. You can always count on me if you need any help.” Wait. Brandon had already reached eleven? How did the time go by so quickly? “It’s just too bad the timing worked out so that you’ve graduated when he’s only just started. But I’m sure he’ll have a good time because Hogwarts seems to be safer these days.” No Rosier, no violent plants. “Oh yeah?” She was grinning. “What did you get?” Oh, her own life? “There’s nothing much happening right now aside from University. Just one more year until Heath and I graduate then we plan to move back here to the UK. Canada’s really nice, and the change of scenery did wonders for me after all that stuff at Hogwarts. I think I’ll apply to both at the Scamander Zoo and as a correspondent for the Daily Prophet. Their Magical Creature column is quite something.” "Well... I'll pay next time we go somewhere, then."
