It was amazing petting the creature before its attention shifted towards TJ and she giggled some still listening as Pen spoke. "Oh I can only imagine, poor Cosmo, as if one big dragon wasn't enough… and this one travels well." She felt for the poor dog, truly but she knew where Pen's heart...

Nodding at his comment she head tilted when the runes began to glow and the symbols appeared as well, "Something about the Founders would be my best guess: a lion, a snake, a badger, a raven…" Tapping her chin thoughtfully she stared at the others the items themselves but the only thing th...

Tati sighed at his question, he wasn't wrong but she didn't feel she was either. "With Derek? Perhaps. With Penny? Most certainly not." She sighed holding up a hand to request a moment to piece together her thoughts, "I mean yes, I know she's had things happen that I'm sure we could c...

She stopped herself from telling Penny there was nothing to apologize for, she didn't know the truth but instead Tati let it go. Giving both the dogs some water was an easy enough task before her attention shifted sharply when Penny whistled and watched as the smaller dragon flew towards the other w...

"Thank you," the comment came naturally as he handed her the paper and charcoal she'd asked for. Head tilting absently as he translated the runes, Tati knew she'd have to take his word for it as she'd never taken runes nor happened to pick up reading them in the years since she finished s...

Tati smiled at his comment, "Not intentionally but maybe a little… you opened the door." Nodding absently as he continued to explain the psychological side of TJ's presence and its effect, Tati understood precisely what he meant. When he mentioned a rabbit in his office she giggled a bit, ...

When she suggested Broomsticks, Tati looked thoughtful; it wasn’t a huge ask but there was the problem about something stronger than Butterbeer. She absently worried her bottom lip for a moment before she gave a little smile, “I’ll come keep you company while you drink, I don’t…” No she hadn’t drank...

She blinked following his light on the wall before the symbols began to glow causing her to gasp a little as she followed behind him, “It seems we do… now what does it mean..?” Moving along she didn’t touch the runes but she traced them in the air with her finger, trying to remember what each one me...

She chuckled some as his admission, “So not a pet person, I’m kind of not surprised..” Glancing at him she shrugged, “It takes a lot of one's focus and concentration to do what you do, if my own case is any example I don’t imagine it leaves you with much energy or desire to do little else.” It at le...

She shook her head at her comment, [color=#7642D] “There’s nothing to suss out, Pen. Honest.”[/color] Tati figured she would be terribly disappointed that things were still the way they were before but if she only knew even that was a change as well. That wasn’t hers to tell though, Tati would never...

She smiled and giggled some when he explained his line of thought before he pulled the fixture on the wall and she heard the click as well before the wall slid back. “You certainly are,” Tati was genuinely impressed but then again he’d had a lot of time and research to figure these things out or at ...

Tati outright laughed when he mentioned how he finally got that particular charm down, covering her mouth quickly to muffle the noise so as not to disturb anyone around them. “I cannot imagine a better use of it back then.” Her attention shifted back towards TJ as they walked and she smiled at his q...

Laughing as she explained about having someone dragon-sitting Tati nodded, “Larger moderately more dangerous dogs where their chosen person is concerned. I hope he behaves himself for whomever you have watching him so you can enjoy your visit without too much worry.” Though it was a moot point, she ...

Tati laughed softly despite herself at his enthusiasm before he was guiding her towards the restricted section gate. Taking one of the offered lanterns she smiled, “Thank you and it’s fine. I much prefer doing things the simpler way when it comes to such things, magic should be saved.” Allowing him ...

Wandering along with him she blinked when he mentioned his own house, “A fellow Ravenclaw? Well that certainly explains some things.” Most importantly why she trusted him so easily, it wasn’t solely because he was a healer like herself. There’d always been something more when it came to Dr Blackwood...

She mentally patted herself on the back when Pen confirmed what she’d suspected, so she was the special guest lecturer today. “I knew I was right on that, glad to see they at least chose one of the best and brightest to come speak.” Oh she imagined it probably had a lot to do with the Headmaster as ...

Once he was gone Tati went to work finishing up quickly the last few things she needed to take care of before she left the office, passing off the monitoring of the ward to the other healer. Returning to her quarters with TJ she quickly prepared his dinner allowing him to eat before she took him out...

She couldn’t help nodding absently as he spoke, he was honest at least. That was sort of what made it easy to trust Dr Blackwood for her. When he asked if they could go for a walk she nodded, “I wouldn’t mind that, I’ve been stuck in here most of today. The fresh air would do me good.” And she certa...

Listening to how he’d already gotten most everything prepared, Tati smiled and nodded, not at all surprised at how ahead of things he was before he’d even come to tell her. “Well I should be done with things here soon..” Looking thoughtful she mentally went over what she could bring along that would...

Tati considered his suggestion thoughtfully for a few quiet moments, probably longer than she was sure he wanted when he continued assuring her as always he didn’t mean for her to push herself. Giving him a soft smile she nodded, “I know Dr Blackwood. I was just thinking who if anyone I would feel c...

She smiled when Penny got up looking just as pleased to see her as well, even going so far as to tease Cosmo. “This is TJ and he likes new friends so I think you two will get on like wildfire.” He was already wiggling all over and just barely containing himself to be left off his leash but he was ma...

Tati was hard pressed to hold back her gasp of surprise and excitement when he mentioned that not only had he found info about a secret chamber but that he’d discovered it’s location. “Under the library, you’re sure?” She just managed to keep it out of her tone but it slipped a little as she clasped...

She was quiet for a long moment considering his question before he commented reminding her that her feelings were valid. Nodding absently she sighed, “I know. I just… it changes depending on the space, the memory..” Patting TJ’s head he shifted and laid down on the floor just resting his head on her...

She nodded absently at his comment, the praise for her progress was appreciated given it was rather hard fought and Dr Blackwood knew that more so than most. At his questions her head tilted slightly as she considered them honestly, was there anything? Well there was… no she wasn’t even going to foc...

Glancing up when she heard the door open Tati found herself hoping and dreading it was an injury. Which was terrible and funny at the same time. Dreading it because well obviously she was a healer she didn’t want anyone to be harmed but hoping because she had never been so bored… well no she had bee...
