RP: Remus & Lilu
Who: Lilu & Remus
When: 28th April, mid-morning
Where: Remus' office
What: Job talk

Lilu had spent the past few days psyching herself up for the conversation with Remus. It wasn't the worst thing in the world, to have to come up with a job. Helping build relationships with other magical races was exciting and she knew she'd be good at it. Hopefully Remus would agree. She'd made sure to smooth her hair back in a bun that looked almost professional for once, though a few tendrils were threatening to escape. She'd inherited her father's hair in spirit if not in color.

She waited until after she was sure the morning meeting was finished, then took herself up to Remus' office. She knocked and waited to be let in.

"Hello! Is now a good time?" She aimed for bright but not too bouncy, because even though the full moon had been a couple of days ago, she didn't want to overwhelm Remus with her natural exuberance. "To chat about what I might be able to do for you?"

"Ah," Remus 'corrected' with a grin. "But they were still only half-Black, as was Tonks. You can't definitively say it is the Black blood, as by the same argument you create more evidence to the contrary in Draco Malfoy, whose mother was Tonks' mother's sister. I'm afraid my hypothesis that Sirius is in a class by himself still holds merit, here," he added with a shrug and one of his pseudo-smirks. "Binns' class, however, is another matter entirely and one in which we are in complete agreement."

He couldn't help blinking a little at how casually she gave her blithe agreement on reforms and then had to remind himself that it was apparently an idea with which she grew up, not the foreign concept it seemed to be in his time. "Well, I can certainly use the help with getting things organized, as well as communicating with the other races. We've reached out the goblins. But, the merpeople and centaurs are right here as our nearest neighbours and we can't ignore them forever." He laughed softly. "So, yes, I think you can help. And, yes, book and paper work, but only for now."

Lilu slumped back with a mock pout on her face. "Okay, point conceded. Debate win goes to Mister Remus J Lupin," she said, then broke into a grin. "Sirius is definitely in a class by himself, I will give you that." That reminded her that she needed to check in with him without looking like she was checking in with him. Quidditch was in their future. "Is he around, by the way? I feel like I should go check his old classroom just to see if he's still teaching even though there aren't any students." That was actually really sad to think about, even if it was Binns.

"I volunteer to make a trip into the forest, or at least to the lake, to see if someone will talk to me. I've been to the lake a few times, made friends again with the giant squid, but I haven't seen any mermaids. Sometimes they'd come to the surface, but not now." She supposed they'd gone about their lives, free from annoying humans. "Brilliant. I've got a job then." It wasn't a question, so much as a statement. Hopefully, there wouldn't be any paperwork to sign.
