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.
