Default Professor Williamson's Hut



The office of Professor William Walter Williamson rests in an old stone hut out on the grounds, not too far away from the edge of the magical creature sanctuary and the pasture where students usually attend Care of Magical Creatures lessons.

In addition to being an office, the hut is where Williamson lives and spends most of his time when he's not outside. You need something? Just knock. But because it is a small(ish) living space here, don't be offended if you're not immediately invited in. Outside the hut are a few weather-worn green and silver hand-painted wooden benches, which are comfortable enough to sit and wait a spell in case Williamson is busy tending to some creatures and not just ignoring your knocking in favor of a nap.

If you are invited inside the hut, you may be surprised at the general warmth and woodiness of the interior. A lot of high-quality woodwork has been preserved inside the structure as William has worked on cleaning the place from last year and installing some beadboard to lighten up the walls. Atop the large fireplace are a few pots and potions, most related to tending creature-related injuries, but some of which may be used in cooking. Additional homely but functional items, like a handmade quilt, copper tea kettles, cast iron pots and pans, a decent-sized kitchen table with six chairs, an overstuffed green plaid chair, and a soft leather couch fill out the rest of the main room. The hut is certainly bigger on the inside than it appears at first, but there are almost no personal items in sight, save a complete collection of Chocolate Frog cards, framed and resting on a trunk in the corner.

There are often creatures, creature food, and creature accessories scattered around the room, usually on the kitchen table where William tends to dump everything. But don't let that deter you. Just sit down on the couch or at the table and have a cuppa while you talk about creatures.

With his first year in full swing, Lukas already had a lot more on his plate then he had initially expected. Sure he had known long ago that Hogwarts wasn't no joke and that the was going to have loads of lessons and even more homework then ever before. He had always been a smart kid though and prided himself in getting really good grades but now he was older. The work was tougher, the essays longer and the exams he found himself studying for sooner than he normally would. And if this was happening in his first term what was the following years going to do to him?!

What he needed to do was keep on top of all the work right away. Make sure he only got top marks on everything he did and didn't let his grades slip at all. After all he had very big shoes to fill, with all of his family before him he had to make a name for himself. Something that was more then 'Evan and Katalin's boy', 'Luna's twin', or 'So and so's little brother/cousin/nephew'.

Problem was he wasn't particularly good at anything besides getting really good grades. Which was the reasoning behind his visit to Professor Williamson's hut this morning. He had to know how he was doing so far. This was his best class and if he wasn't actually doing well he would have a serious problem on his hands.

Reaching the door to the hut, the young Ravenclaw lifted his hand tapping his knuckles against the door. Hopefully the professor was around and he wasn't busy.

The professor wasn't in just yet, as he was finishing up feeding and tending to the animals in the Magical Creature Sanctuary. It had been a fairly cold and rainy fall, which meant that he had to put down straw over mud holes every few days, and William had a feeling that the winter was just going to be much worse. Luckily he was prepared for this after living in Alaska so long, and had already started expanding the barn to accommodate all the creatures here at Hogwarts.

He stomped over to his hut, stomping to shake off mud more than anything, and noticed the blurry outline of a kid outside it. As he got nearer, the kid grew clearer, and he could see that it was Lukas Donovan. Ah, Ravenclaws. What did he want? Extra homework?

"Yes?" Williamson came up behind him and leaned against the door in lieu of actually opening it.

Lukas had only been waiting a few minutes after he had first knocked on the door to the hut when he heard what sounded like someone stomping towards him. It wasn't until they had gotten close enough and he had turned around to face the direction they were coming from, that he realized it was the professor. So the man hadn't even been inside his hut. Not that he expected him to always be there, there were a ton of creatures that he knew the professor had to tend to.

"Good morning, Professor," Lukas greeted him with a light smile. "I was hoping I could talk with you for a minute if you're not too busy?" As much as he would like to talk about with Williamson about his grades right this very minute he could always come back later if need be. He wouldn't mind helping out with the creatures or something either and chat at the same time. A lot of important conversations had happened between his dad and him as well as his sister and himself while he had been helping them tend to creatures.

Alright, the kid looked cheerful, and he was being polite, so. William supposed he couldn't just scare him off by grunting at him. At least, not yet.

"Yeah alright, I'm not too busy at the moment." He pulled an apple out of his pocket, one he was supposed to have given to an abraxan but had apparently forgotten to do. He started munching on it and sat down on the steps to the hut, gesturing toward Lukas to take a seat either there with him orrrr on one of the green benches right by the door.

Mmm. Good apple.

~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.

Claudine was rather excited about her visit to Williamson. It was a few days after the first CoMC lesson and she had spent a great amount of time being a caretaker to President - William said she could, after all. Naturally, she hadn’t figured yet figured out if the kneazle would leave her rat alone so she had left Samm back in her dorm at those times. This afternoon though? The Snakette had gone back to the dorm after lessons, deposited her belongings, collected Samm then made her way to the hut. She knocked on the door four times and waited.

“Think he’s here, Samm?” she asked the rat on the right side of her shoulder. Claudine could not decipher if the sniffing of her ear meant yes or no. All she knew was that the whiskers of Samm’s tickled her and left her chuckling.

Oh, this was good, he wasn't busy. Saved him from having to come back another time and driving himself crazy because he didn't know how he was doing in the professors class. Lukas smiled a bit.

"Thank you." He replied politely, taking a seat on the steps beside Williamson. Being polite was important, yes? Yes. Anyhow, best get right down to the point of his visit so as not to end up taking up to much of the mans time. "I was hoping that you would tell me how my grades are so far for you lessons?" If he was doing really badly, which he honestly shouldn't be but you never know, he needed to know now.

Turning his blue-gray eyes onto the professor, he gave him a hopeful look. Just don't tell him he was failing!

"What?" Oh, it was Blaze and her SCHOOL APPROVED pet. Always nice to see that students from his old House were actually the smartest ones in the school. They could, typically, follow the rules. So he stood there and just waited for her to answer the what.

Oh, yeah, grades. Figured that he'd be asking about those, considering Williamson hadn't.....er, returned any of their homework assessments yet.

"Fine," he replied, taking another cronchy bite of apple. He chewed it up and eyeballed the boy. Kid was so young and doe-eyed. He should probably spare him a few more words. "Er, d'ya like working with animals, Donovan?"

Fine.

That was all he got. Fine how? Could he be doing much better than he currently was. Was he on par with all of his work and doing everything really well. So many questions came along with a simple answer, such as 'fine'. Maybe Williamson was trying to get rid of him quickly and that was the reason for his short reply.

Lukas wasn't sure what to think. Should he ask if he could elaborate on the meaning of 'fine' a little more? Whatever it was he was going to do, he was taking much to long to do it. He ended up with his mouth half open to speak just as the man beside him asked him a question.

Huh? The small Ravenclaw closed his mouth, blinking a couple of time. Creatures. He was being asked if he liked working with them. Of course he did. It would be really sad if he didn't since he mainly grew up around them. There was an immediate smile on his face as he answered. "Yes, Sir. I've been around a lot of different types of creatures for as long as I can remember." He was good with them all and could easily follow directions if the professor ever found himself in need of any assistance in tending to the creatures in the barns or the sanctuary.

"It’s just a bit longer, hang on Elena," Cole reassured his cat as he sprinted over the grounds from the castle with his sick cat in his arms. It was on a sunday morning after breakfast and luckily he didn’t have any lessons he needed to go to and considering his deep worry for his cats health, that had worsened over the last couple of days, he would have skipped them if had had any, no questions asked. Elena came first. Cole loved her, she had quickly taken a place in his heart, and he wasn’t going to lose her too like he had done his rats. Professor Williamson had to help him there was no other option.

Making a screeching halt outside the hut Cole raised one had to knock on the door three times. Looking down at his cat he murmured as he gave her a careful scratch between the ears. "If he isn’t in, we won’t leave until he comes."


Elena was not content in her hoomans arms. She wanted to barf up everything she had eaten today, which in fact wasn’t a lot but she hadn't showed her hooman that. Food didn’t interest her anymore. She just wanted to sleep.

Claudine blinked. What? was not the type of greeting she had expected from any professor. A judgy look passed over her face. “Hello, Professor.’’ The Snakette stressed on her words. See? This was a proper greeting. “Oh. This is Sammy but I call him Samm.’’ The rat twitched its whiskers in Williamson’s direction. “Are you busy? I’d really like to pick your brain about something.’’ Eager. Claudine was eager to have a discussion about a career in the magical creatures field. Because of this excitement, she had a feeling that her questions might be all over the place. Williamson should be able to make sense of it all though, right? Surely he had lots of experience with questions of the sort she had in mind?

Oh! Well, this was good then. William had been expecting a different answer for some reason, maybe because the boy had been a little hesitant around the wampus kittens, or so he recalled. "Which ones do you remember working with, and enjoying in particular?" His brow furrowed as he considered a job for Lukas. He was such a small kid still. Could he handle the task WWW had in mind for him? Because he was always looking to hand off to his work to someone else it was the Slytherin way, after all.

BUT, more importantly, WWW thought that giving kids a hands-on task helped them learn and see there was more to Hogwarts than just their grades.

Williamson was currently slumped on his stomach on the leather couch, half hanging on and half hanging off the thing as he dozed under a pile of student papers. Well, the papers HAD been on him, earlier. Now they were scattered all over the floor, amongst a few cans and bottles and mugs that all belonged to WWW and were evidence of him having a very nice pity party the night before.

Sunday mornings were meant to be enjoyed SLOWLY, not with all this.... urgent knocking and nonsense from outside his door. Plus, wasn't ONE knock enough? THREE KNOCKS? What in the name of Rubeus Hagrid's pink umbrella was going on out there? He popped one eye open but didn't move off the couch yet. Instead, he let out a foul-smelling burp and raised his head a few centimeters off the couch.

"WHO'S THERE?" He definitely bellowed that loud enough for the knocker to hear.

"Oh come on then, Blaze." William caught the judgmental expression from this Slytherin and opened his door wider, though he wasn't being warm and sunshiney just yet. It went against his tough man attitude for the year. "I was just busy...ing myself by making a cuppa. Ya want one?" He left the door open for her to enter (and close it behind her) and went back to where he'd left his tea.

Also, because he wasn't THAT rude, he nodded to Sammy. From here, by the sink, a safe distance away from the rat. It was nothing personal against rats, but WWW thought of them as food for other pets, not actual pets themselves, even if they were as well-behaved as Samm. If it were up to him, he'd strike rats from the list of Hogwarts-approved animals and replace it with crups.

But he wouldn't tell Claudine that. He'd heard about her and her crups and didn't want to be labeled a bad influence on the students this early in the year.

Instead, he let out a foul-smelling burp and raised his head a few centimeters off the couch.

"WHO'S THERE?" He definitely bellowed that loud enough for the knocker to hear.
"What was that sound Elena?" Cole asked his cat curiously with a glance down at her and then up at the hut door again. It certainly sounded like a faint human burp which to Cole's ears meant that Professor Williamson was inside his hut. They we're in luck. The bellow that came after sealed the deal. Raising his voice to a yell Cole answered "It's Cole Vance sir. I need urgent help with my sick cat..." It was then like on signal that he heard a loud "Meo----!" turning his full attention to his cat with worry he watched as she started to squirm heavily in his arms before she began barfing up something slimy all over Professor Williamsom's front hut porch. Oops. Hopefully the professor wouldn't get too mad.

Elena squirmed and squirmed in her hoomans arms. A loud distressed "Meo--------w" from her didn't make him drop her. She moved her head from side to side as her stomach rumbled and she started to throw up all over the shiny wood thingy. It was not fun. She was usually a classy cat, not one that made scenes, unless it involved tasty schrimps.

Merlin's saggy shorts--- a SICK cat! William felt like HE could be a sick cat! This had better not be a prank, he thought as he rolled off the couch and onto the floor, knocking over a pile of ginger soda cans. Then he heard the ME--OW, barf barf barf sounds coming from outside, and that lit a fire under his bum like a blast-ended skrewt that had just eaten curry.

"I'M COMING," he bellowed again to reassure Cole and Cat. Where was his wand? Where was it? William scooted along the floor, searching for wherever he'd dropped it--- THERE! Under the couch! He grabbed it and hurriedly swept it around, sending all the cans into the rubbish bin and stacking the papers in a neat pile on his kitchen table.

He hauled himself up and dusted off any crumbs, then lurched for the door, yanking it open with gusto.

Oh, Merlin, how he'd wished he'd just stayed inside. Look at this mess. Willy immediately sent a few scouring spells here and there and everywhere he spotted the slime. There was Cole, cat in hand, who he supposed was the source of the green bile and slime and bits of--- "Slugs?" William rubbed at his eye with one of his palms, checking to make sure he wasn't seeing things. "Cole, uh, Cat," he couldn't remember her name, "come in I guess. Cole, how is she barfing up slugs?!"

This had to be the work of a spell. WWW shook his head but led the way to the kitchen table, where he shoved the papers out of the way and conjured up a small tub for the cat to lay in. At least she'd be able to vomit into the bin instead of ON EVERYONE and EVERYTHING.

"Did you hear that Elena, Professor W is coming!" Cole reassured his cat that was looking greener and greener in the face (if you could say that by a cat?) the minute as she kept barfing up slimy things all over the hut porch. He did his best to keep his sneakers from getting covered in the slime. He had had enough of the slime from when he had that close encounter with the pit in the dungeons. Cole gave a sigh of relief at the sight of Professor Williamson when he yanked open his hut door to look out at them.

"Slugs?" He repeated confused. Looking around Cole now really saw what was in Elenas vomit. He hadn’t exactly been examining the vomit too closely because ewwwwwwww and it made himself feel sick. Taking a new grip on his cat Cole followed Professor Williamson inside his hut and over to the kitchen table. Positioning Elena carefully down into the tub with a little pat where she kept barfing up slugs in weird colours. Turning his eyes to Professor Williamson he debated whether to lie or be truthful. For his cats sake he decided to be honest. "It was Claudine that aimed the slug vomit curse at me, but my cat; Elena got in the way. Claudine was is angry with me because I went on a date with Naya and she saw us…….." Yes teen drama.

Okay, so Elena was the cat's name. One thing at a time here. Williamson busied himself with putting the kettle on, getting out a small saucepot, and then debating how best to cure this..... for a cat. He knew that treacle fudge helped humans, but cats couldn't really handle all that sugar and stickiness.

Hmm.

He turned around as Cole explained the story. "Really?" Williamson's brow furrowed and again he rubbed his forehead where a migraine was developing. It was just strange because he didn't think Claudine would be the type to hex someone's cat... she loved animals, didn't she? Well maybe it was an accident or maybe Cole wasn't telling the truth; who knew. WWW just knew he wasn't going to take points from Slytherin over this because it was his old house IT WAS PROBABLY JUST AN ACCIDENT.

Now, onto the cure. He patted Elena gently between her ears, even as she vomited up another small slug. "Cole, do you know finite incantatem?" He gestured for the boy to try it on Elena. Baby steps, here.

He left the door open for her to enter (and close it behind her) and went back to where he'd left his tea.

Also, because he wasn't THAT rude, he nodded to Sammy. From here, by the sink, a safe distance away from the rat.

Claudine was sure that she wasn’t imagining it: Williamson was less friendly that he had been in class. She didn’t care as she wasn’t here to make friends or whatever. Her own motives were all that mattered to her and if she played her cards right, she’d be successful. She followed the man in and quietly shut the door behind her, thinking about his question. Her stomach was giving off those hunger pangs so she nodded; tea would soothe her stomach. “Please.’’ Those intense, brown eyes gazed around the hut nothing that like Fuller-Thompson’s, it was cosy but lacked items that personalised it.

The young Snakette remained standing where she was… well, because she wasn’t about to just invade Williamson’s home/office any more than she needed to without permission. Also, at this point, she failed to realise that he may not like rats. Claudine launched into her questions by starting with one that she found of utmost importance. “Professor? Are the Hogwarts kneazles trained to leave a student’s pet rat alone? Sometimes when I’m out on the grounds with Samm, I would like to stop by to see President but um... I don’t want Samm panicking or the kneazles getting to him.”

Alright, William got another cup ready and then brought her her tea. Er, well, he stood there awkwardly with two mugs in hand, waiting to see where she was going to sit. "Please, make yourself at homeeee," he prompted, tilting his head toward the couch or one of the chairs. He didn't bite, alright? Plus, as long as Sammy wasn't sick, they might as well be comfortable while they chatted.

As for her question... well, that was surprisingly thoughtful. Still holding her mug in his right hand, he took a sip from his cup in his left. "That's... I mean, I wish I could tell you that they know the difference between a pet rat and a regular rat...." but.... Willy looked at Samm with an apologetic expression. "But unfortunately, I think that our kneazles just pounce on almost anything that moves." President included.

Could he handle the task WWW had in mind for him? Because he was always looking to hand off to his work to someone else it was the Slytherin way, after all.

BUT, more importantly, WWW thought that giving kids a hands-on task helped them learn and see there was more to Hogwarts than just their grades.
Would it be wrong for him to laugh right now? If he didn't think the Professor would assume he was either being rude and/or crazy he surely would've. The question seems absurd to him. His knowledge of creatures ran deep as he had been around them basically his entire life. Not that anyone would know that unless he had specifically told them or they personally knew him and his family outside of Hogwarts. Which was why he simply grinned widely at the man sat beside him rather than laugh. "All kinds, Sir. At home we have several pygmy puffs (which WERE'NT his!), an owl and we just got a cruppie over the summer." After years and years of begging his mum had finally caved... right before he went off to Hogwarts.

"Cats and dogs, rodents, birds, fish, reptiles, nifflers, bowtruckle, jarvery's, all types of horses...." he trailed off not sure what else list and not wanting to sound like he was bragging if he continued. Lukas considered himself to be extremely lucky when it came to getting to be around different creatures a lot.

As for which one's he enjoyed working with the most, well now that he had to think about. It was a hard question. "I enjoy them all for different reasons. There's always something to learn and each creature is different." Just like people. Not even him and his twin sister were exactly alike.

William would not have thought a laugh rude; he genuinely didn't know, until he asked, how much his students knew about his subject! Plus Lukas was so, so young. "Alright," he nodded at the explanation of rather ordinary, family-pet type of animals. So Lukas came from a wizarding family, he was guessing; that was good.

But wait! There's more! WWW was pleasantly surprised at this. "Merlin's beard, m'boy, do you live on a farm then?" Wouldja look at that! He might be small but he had a world of knowledge, the professor assumed. He smirked faintly at his careful answer about valuing each creature, and nudged the boy slightly.

"But surely you have a favorite." Come on, lad, don't be shy. "I, for one, love dragons, but when I can't be around dragons, I love to take a hippogriff or a thestral for a spin." True story. Abraxans and granians... they were alright too, but a bit too prissy for Dubya.

Professor Williamson's reaction was pretty much what Lukas had expected it to be. Not many kids his age were lucky enough in getting to be around so many different types of creatures on a regular basis before attending Hogwarts. Sometimes people didn't even believe him when he talked about the types of creatures he had gotten to see up close, touch, play with or help take care of. He never let it get to him though.

The first year shook his head laughing. "No but I wouldn't mind living on one." With his fathers previous job and his sisters current job, it was somewhat surprising to even him that someone in his family didn't have a farm. It would make explaining things much easier, that was for sure. "My dad used to be the shopkeeper at the Magical Menagerie in Diagon Alley. I would go there with him almost everyday to help out with all the creatures." That had only lasted a couple of years but those were years he would never forget. "My older sister is a Magizoologist Vet... she travels all around to study different creatures and take care of them. She has her own vet clinic and takes care of the creatures at Scamander Zoo. I also have a cousin that's studying dragons." When he isn't off touring with his band that is. So yes, all in all the small boys knowledge wasn't at all lacking when it came to creatures.

Lukas laughed again, grinning at Williamson when he nudged him. "You work with dragons?" His attention peaked, turning slightly on the steps to look at him. Dragons were by far one of the coolest creatures but due to their unpredictability he wasn't allowed to be near them very often. "Thestral's? You... can see them?" He didn't know why this surprised him. It made sense really, it was easier to take care of something when you could see it. Once again he didn't answer the question but this time it was simply by mistake, he was in silent awe by what he had heard.

"Ohhhhhhh," oh oh oh well that all made sense, dinnit? William let out a soft chuckle; not that he was laughing at the boy, but that he was relieved and impressed. So Lukas could be trusted to not drop the leash on a wampus or anything, eh? And maybe he could make contact with the boy's family if he needed their help with anything? "Lukas, that's fantastic." He clapped the boy on the shoulder again with hearty approval. A whole family of animal lovers! Now if only WWW had grown up with the same background... he might've been able to skip uni.

Though, to be fair, he did love his time at uni.

"WorkED with dragons," he clarified, just a little. "But yeah, that's what most of my experience has been. I hatched one, here at Hogwarts, back when I used to teach here." The first time, that was. But that was in the past. He waved his hand and glanced at the kid again, his expression softening. "Yeah...." hey, it was fine. "When you get to my age, Lukas, or if you do something dumb and dangerous like working with dragons, you're bound to....er, wind up seeing thestrals." If you yourself didn't become the reason they saw thestrals, anyway. He got that? Right? WWW wasn't being clear again...

WWW stretched out his legs then; they were getting cramped from sitting on the stairs here. "So d'ya wanna work with some animals this year, er...?" It COULD help his grade, not that his grade was bad in the first place.

He clapped the boy on the shoulder again with hearty approval. A whole family of animal lovers! Now if only WWW had grown up with the same background... he might've been able to skip uni.

Though, to be fair, he did love his time at uni.

"WorkED with dragons," he clarified, just a little. "But yeah, that's what most of my experience has been. I hatched one, here at Hogwarts, back when I used to teach here." The first time, that was. But that was in the past. He waved his hand and glanced at the kid again, his expression softening. "Yeah...." hey, it was fine.

If Williamson's reaction early had made Lukas grin his reaction now had the small boy laughing, his blue-gray eyes light with amusement. He nodded in agreement. It was fantastic. There wasn't anything in his life that he could honestly complain about. He had a lot of amazing role models with a wide range of careers. "I enjoy it." It would really stink for him if he didn't like creatures at all.

Work. Worked. Whatever. The fact was the man had personal experience with dragons. Stares at him. "Here? At Hogwarts?! Are you going to hatch another one here?" Does he have any clue how high up on his list of things to experience seeing a newborn dragon hatch from its egg was?! Would pleading help the matter at all? Because he could totally do that and he wouldn't even be embarrassed about it. Lukas nodded in obvious understanding. He knew how seeing thestrals worked. While it would be seriously wicked to be able to see them, it also wouldn't be given the reasoning behind being able to. Not going to comment anymore on that... but... "When did you teach here last? Maybe you taught my older siblings or cousin." Or maybe he knew his mum and dad!

Lukas nodded without hesitation. Did that even have to be a question?! "I would like that a lot." If it boasted his grade that would be great but if it didn't he wouldn't be upset about it.

"Please, make yourself at homeeee," he prompted, tilting his head toward the couch or one of the chairs. He didn't bite, alright? Plus, as long as Sammy wasn't sick, they might as well be comfortable while they chatted.

As for her question... well, that was surprisingly thoughtful. Still holding her mug in his right hand, he took a sip from his cup in his left. "That's... I mean, I wish I could tell you that they know the difference between a pet rat and a regular rat...." but.... Willy looked at Samm with an apologetic expression. "But unfortunately, I think that our kneazles just pounce on almost anything that moves." President included.


Now that she was invited to, Claudine opted for one of the chairs- the green plaid one. “Thank you,’’ she said, making herself comfortable as an introvert in an unfamiliar place possibly can. She took Samm from her shoulder and rested him on one of the arms of the chair. If Williamson would just ask, he’d be able to find out that the rat was healthy and quite safe to have scuttling around on his person.

She eyed the mug not being used, which she assumed was hers, before focusing on the man’s nose rather than his eyes. Claudine could feel the sinking disappointment which seemed to work its way from her chest all the way down to the pit of her belly. If she wasn’t so good at controlling her facial expressions, the disappointment would have registered on her face too. “Oh.’’ Claudine glanced at Samm who was looking over the edge of the armrest as though contemplating exploring the cabin. “I’ll just have to keep Samm away from President then.’’

Quickly, she moved on to the real reason for the visit. “Can you tell me about internship opportunities to work with creatures?” Darn it. She should have brought a book to make notes. “Please?”

Mhmm, yeah, yep, yuuuupppppp. William might've gotten a bit glassy-eyed as he looked off into the distance and reminisced about Roro the dragon. Such a sweet baby who had made so many precious baby noises. He missed that dragon terribly, and thought about him every day.

"Huh?" He shook his head as Lukas' voice brought him back to reality. "Oh," chuckle chuckle, "I dunno about that, kid. I think Hogwarts has had enough excitement in recent years." Boggarts and students' deaths and Merlin knew what else. He'd followed it all from a distance, of course, in the papers and things. He had to look out for his niece best friend's kid. Had to make sure Louise was doing alright.

As for WHEN he'd taught here??? "Uhhhh," William scratched his head again, and stood up now to stretch out properly. "Before this year, I think I was last teaching here in 2078." He eyed Lukas quickly after he said that. "Who're your family members?" AND DON'T do the math, kid, to see how old he really was. Because he might've been grumpy and close to retirement, but he didn't like to be reminded of it by children who were 40+ years younger than him.

The boy's response to his offer to help had him beaming. "Alright then, I'm going to assign you to the winged horses. Think you can take it upon yourself to stop by and befriend them all, at least once a week?" Or more, if Lukas could spare the time.

Williamson would never ask about the health of the rat, unless he was literally looking ill and couldn't be ignored. He just... eghghghuhg. He'd seen too many dead rats, rats being eaten by baby dragons, rats getting crunched by hippogriff beaks... sorry, Claudine. Willy just wore an awkward, kinda sad facial expression for her. Rats really shouldn't be pets, he thought again, even if they were intelligent and friendly and sometimes sweet. Also, he'd once heard a story about a rat that cooked for a five-star restaurant in France, and while WWW believed this was possible, it still wouldn't convince him to eat there.

Anyyyyyywho. He brought her cuppa over to her and made sure she took it before he settled into the couch opposite her. Ahhh. The leather may have even let out a farting sound as he sat down, but rest assured, "It was the couch," the professor clarified. Ahem.

"Oh," uhhhhhhhhhhhhh, this was not what he'd been expecting to talk about, for some reason????!? He thought maybe she was here to discuss cats and rats. Willy took a minute to answer, sipping his tea steadily first as he considered internship opportunities for Claudine. "Well, first off, let's talk about you and your experiences with creatures." That was a good, careful answer. "How old are ya, Claudine?" She looked, like, 12, and most places wouldn't take on an intern younger than 16.

Also.... "What are your FAVORITE creatures? Are you allergic to any? And do you have any major fears, like are you afraid of heights, or spiders, or fire?" That would narrow it down somewhat. He should invent a questionnaire for kids to take, the number of times he got this question.
