Brigitte didn’t know what was going on with her today. She had bad dreams all of last night that forced her up in the wee hours of the morning. They were the usual nightmares of four-legged creatures, blood and a horrible sense of dread and fear. It didn’t take a psychiatrist to figure out what those dreams were about but Brigitte had never experienced so many in the past few days. She had to wonder if it had anything to do with the moon but the teen hoped not. Everyday Brigitte had taken a dosage of monkshood so surely she didn’t have to worry about changing again, right? When the teen had finally hauled her ass out of bed at 11 am, she had been overcome with a wave of nausea and was lucky to even make to the bathroom before throwing up.

Maybe I have a stomach cold, she thought once her stomach started to settle down. A hot shower made her feel a little better but soon a gnawing feeling developed in her stomach. Hunger or stomach cramps? Brigitte wasn’t sure but figured a cup of tea wouldn’t hurt at the moment. She dressed casually and comfortably in loose, well worn blue jeans and a light, long sleeved red shirt with a graphic design. Light enough for the weather but long enough to hide the scars on Brigitte’s body. Once her clothes were on she grabbed her beaten in black docs and set for outside.

The brunette was in for a shock when she stepped outside and discovered the place had changed yet again. Gone were the sandy beaches and brilliant blue waters to be replaced with green hills with tons of trees and greenery. It kinda reminded Brigitte of how the planet had looked when she first arrived but there were obvious differences. Like the rows and rows of vineyards for example. Brigitte might have been more unnerved If wasn’t for the fact that she had seen such a thing happen before, so she simply looked around briefly before heading to the café inside the resort. There would be time to explore later on.

Once she reached the café, Brigitte’s stomach pulled more tricks on her, sending a sharp pain through her midsection. The teen groaned, slumping over for a moment before the pain passed. She sought out a table close to the door and quickly sat down before her stomach acted up again. What the hell is going on? Whatever it was, it showed on Brigitte’s face as her skin took on a paler hue than normal. It seemed to take forever for a golem to come over though so Brigitte looked around the café. Was she the only one here?

No, there’s someone over there, she realized. “Hi, do you know if there are any golems around or is it self-serve today?”

“Potions? No but then I never thought about it”, Brigitte admitted although she was thinking about it now. It appeared that Brigitte’s suspicions were right as Tonks confirmed that she did know a werewolf. In fact, she made it sound like it was downright ordinary to know werewolves but what really got the teen was what Tonks said next: Her friend controlled his curse with potions.

“Really?” Brigitte breathed, no longer able to hide her interest. It didn’t seem like there was a need to hide it anymore anyway, as Tonks already knew werewolves existed. “Does it work? This potion your friend makes”, she added to clarify. The teen knew she was being incredibly obvious now so she decided she might was well spill the beans as it were. “To be honest, it’s not a stomach flu that’s bothering me”, Brigitte explained in a low voice. “It’s more of a symptom of the full moon if you catch my drift”.

The girl didn’t elaborate further as the golem finally came out with their food. It smelled heavenly to Brigitte who had already picked up a whiff of it before the golem even came through the door. She said nothing as the creature set the food down in front of the women but eyed the bacon hungrily. It had been a long, long since Brigitte had eaten meat. For a moment she completely forgot about potions, werewolves and witches and focused simply on sated the hungry beast in her stomach. Not that she made a slob of herself but for a while it was easy to see that Brigitte was more interested in eating then talking for a moment. A few bites settled her stomach and Brigitte felt the pain in her stomach ease slightly as she ate some meat.

Maybe it was just hunger Brigitte thought for a moment but another twinge in her stomach corrected that idea. “Sorry, what were we talking about?” Brigitte asked after taking a mouthful of hot tea. “Werewolves, right. So you wouldn’t happen to know how to make that potion, would you?”

Tonks nodded thoughtfully as the teen talked. She'd kind of already figured it out, of course. Despite her clumsiness, which most people seemed to use to discount her, she was very bright. And the teen had made it fairly obvious, at least to an Auror like Tonks. There had just been too much interest for it to be a casual conversation.

"Yeah, I guessed. I saw it enough in Remus." The witch glanced up as her food was brought, her eyes lighting up. She was pretty hungry. As the golem set it down on the table, she once more levitated the salt over, this time to sprinkle some of the condiment on her food. Okay, so she was showing off just a little. It would have been easier to reach over and pick it up.

They ate in silence, and the Auror was just hungry enough to allow this. Normally, of course, she would have been chattering the girl's ears off, but right now, food was much more important. She did, however, notice that the girl spent much more time with the bacon than anything else. Yeah, definately a werewolf. When the girl spoke again, she was ready.

"Yeah, I can make it. I always got top marks in my Potions. But Severus Snape, he's here as well, and he's even better at it than I am. The best Potions wizard ever, really." She paused and wrinkled up her nose. "Kind of grumpy, though, but very talented."
