Did you KNOW you were going to be a cat? Because wouldn't it be funny if you were something GROSS, like a SLUG?! But that would be cool because you could make SLIME! Unless someone STOOD on you!

*stares at him as he rambles*
*bluntly*
No. I did not know I was going to be a cat. Surely your transfigurations professor explained that to you.

*eyebrow raises* You do close your mouth during lessons, don't you?

*cackles* Young Minerva and Colin... lovely. *adores you*

Do you like cats? Do you? Because what if you HATED them or something? That would be a bit horrid, wouldn't it? I mean, do you smell of cats when you change back and stuff?

*nods*
Of course I close my mouth! My jaw'd hurt if I kept it open all day, wouldn't it? Wouldn't it?!

Hee, he can't resist when it comes to Minerva being an Animagus! :D

*starts to answer but closes her mouth when he continues*
*foot taps her impatience silently*
*tensely*
I do like cats. But I do not smell of them.

I'd expect you might not notice as you seem to have a wealth of practice at it.

And she wouldn't admit to smelling of cat to anyone. :P You are sooo evil. *loves*

*wide-eyed*
Was it very hard to learn to do?
*breathlessly*
I think it'd be brilliant to be an Animagus...

Nifty letter! ♥

_tartantabby_ October 30 2006, 04:29:56 UTC

*nods*
Very hard. Years of work and tutoring with Professor Dumbledore.
*smiles kindly at her*
It is brilliant. *teasinly* Almost as brilliant as Quidditch.

just_loyal_true October 30 2006, 05:12:19 UTC

*grins broadly*
*teasing in return*
Now, if you had to choose between the two... Would you pick being an Animagus? Or would you pick Quidditch?

_tartantabby_ October 30 2006, 05:14:06 UTC

*laughs*
Now that's not fair at all. Might as well make me choose between water and air.

It seems like a lot of paperwork.
But then it's done, isn't it?
And you're going to be famous. There aren't very many Animaguses, are there?

_tartantabby_ October 30 2006, 04:22:01 UTC

*rolls eyes*
You know the Ministry, Sanara. Everything in triplicate and more questions than Hogwarts has stones. And no, not done then either. I then have to go parade myself before the officials to prove that I'm not lying.

*brows knit*
I didn't do this for the fame but no, they're aren't many. And one of them is a goose.

lefthandstars October 30 2006, 04:35:42 UTC

One day all the files that the Ministry has are going to come in useful.
If it's really cold, we can burn them as fuel.

Oh, no, of course not. But when students researching Animaguses look up the register, you're going to be there.

A goose. *giggles doesn't mention pigs* You'll have to be careful not to eat them.

I have no idea where she got her sense of humour from.

_tartantabby_ October 30 2006, 04:48:39 UTC

*laughs*
Aye, maybe. Perhaps they're planning ahead then?

*lifts her chin proudly*
They will and I shall.

*narrows her eyes at Sanara then laughs lightly*
That goose isn't worth eating for the ridiculousness she has.

*laughs* *adores*

Minerva, this is great news. Congratulations!

When can I see you in your cat form?
