"So you keep saying."

Laugh. "Perhaps if I remind my students often enough they'll believe me."

"And if wishes were fishes, the kitchen elves would be out of work."

"Which would be horribly tragic."

Nod nod.

She settles back a bit, rubbing Scarlet's ears when the kneazle mrrs sleepily. "Was there anything else?"

"Not really, no."

Anathema shakes her head.

"Alright. I don't mind company if you two want to hang out, though."

"Okay." Ellie has some study materials in her bag.

Anathema does too, though she also spends some time trying to lure Scarlet over to her lap...

Not to much success.

Best to let sleeping kneazles lie.

Anathema pouts.

Still, the evening passes rather peacefully.

Yeah, it's nice.

Professor Reynolds wishes them a good night once the sun begins setting, and thanks them for the conversation earlier.

"Good night, Professor. See you in class."

"I'll see you then."

It's getting to be dinner time, too.

Down to food, then!

Professor Reynolds admits to having gotten distracted and heads down to dinner with them (after apologizing to a grumpy Scarlet for depriving them of their pillow).

Poor sad kitty. But food is important.

Fine.

Scarlet follows them down so grouchily though.

Alas for them.

Hmm... Perhaps Ellie and Anathema can make this up with ear scritches?
