When she reached the chinchilla, she realized with great excitement that the yelling and voice was from Kel. She snapped her fingers and Gemma crawled up her leg and rested on her shoulder and tucking her face in Satine's dark purple hair knowing that she was in trouble.
"Kel!" Satine yelled and gave him her usual hug hello. She instantly noticed though that Kel wasn't his usual self. "So, what's going on....you have a look like you just ate a booger flavored jelly bean." she said scrunching up her face and making a horrible face to show him what that might look like.
As she waited for his reply, she grabbed Gemma and put her into the Chinchilla's purple carrying bag.
Kel's mouth stretched into a smile as he returned the hug with one arm. As he stepped away from Satine, he noticed the animal on her shoulder, and couldn't stop a small laugh that escaped. He opened his mouth to start small talk with Satine, but thankfully she said something before he could. He laughed shortly and humorlessly, but his smile came back into place when Satine showed him what his face must've looked like only moments before.
"Oh, it's not really a big deal," he said, dismissing it with a one-shouldered shrug.
"My mother's trying to be all parental." He patted the pocket the letter was in absentmindedly as he said this.
"She found out I was in Ravenclaw over the summer and she wasn't too happy. I guess she thinks that if she sends me letters I won't be able to keep any more secrets from her." he shrugged again.
...Pause.
"But anyway, what about you? Glad to be back?" At this question, he smiled a bit bigger because
he was surely glad to be back.
