Buzz was the comfort companion JT often went to hug or spend time with if he had had a fight with one of his siblings or if mummy or daddy wasn't pleased with him.

Following daddy into the pet shop it felt like JT went right smack into a wall of creature smells, sights and noises. Tugging his dad over to look at the rats first JT said worriedly. "What if I like a pet, and we buy it, and then my snake housemates will tease me for it everyday?" Or do something worse. Stepping closer to look more at the rats he made big eyes up at daddy when he mentioned that he had met mummy in this very shop when they had been his age. Curiously JT asked "Did you love mummy on first sight? They said people do on the wiz radio the other day." Eyeing the rats with a little fascination, JT watched as one of the rats tried to hunt his own tail.

Kirk's hand moved to smooth out JT's hair, "I know, son. You take care of Buzz well, so I trust you'll take good care of the pet you take to Hogwarts this term. You did so well last term without Buzz and I believe you'll make it through another term." He was so proud of his little man. He already had to be the big brother to his three younger siblings. "We'll also make sure the pet you decide on gets along well with Buzz so they can be good friends." Who said Jarveys did mix well with others?

Kirk followed over to where the rats where contained. He thought about the question. He didn't have to worry about others thoughts on his own pet back in the day. But it was important to recognize that JT wasn't in Ravenclaw. But he was among a family of former snakes and eagles, save his mom, who was a lion. "If anyone teases you over finding something to care for, that is their problem. It usually means they don't have something to care for and see it as wrong. Just know that whoever you care for isn't wrong as long as it isn't dangerous." He gave a reassuring smile, "But if that does happen. You can always owl me, your mum, and anyone else you trust. The stars also will listen if you're in any need for comfort." He loved looking up at the sky and enchanted ceiling at Hogwarts. It was also why he decorated the boys' room to have an enchanted star replica ceiling.

Though it was some time ago, the former Captain remembered it like it was yesterday, "I felt a connection with mum at first sight.. I didn't know how to describe it other than it made us want to talk with each other. I do think that counts as love in a way. I just didn't realize how much I loved her until later on when we had the stars above us to share." "The radio isn't wrong about that, people realize how much they love each other at different moments. It can be first sight, days, months, even years. As long as both feel the same way, the ending matters more." As he recalled the moment, Kirk did notice the rat JT was eyeing. "You see anything you like?"
