No hesitation, no delay, it comes on just like special k.

I have found the downside to having my parents visit for Sunday lunch, instead of going to them. My dad has this spectacular ability to find fault in everything

They did. I think my mum just has a flair for practical gifts.

Nice to meet you too. And you are?

[mortal_sand]

No doubt they are to come.

Hey there, Amara. My symapthies on the Seventh Year thing. Slytherin, actually.

[mortal_sand]

Quite possibly. I look forward to it. Or not.

Haha. Tends to get that reaction. I'm in Healer training.

[mortal_sand]

I think so. As long as you don't wear them.

Why are you shocked? It's a job, isn't it? It's always interested me. Probably because I was brought up around it, but it's what I'm good at, it's what I like.

Perhaps that's a fault more of theirs than ours. There's nothing more ambitious than wanting to beat death, surely. It takes a lot longer than a year to train. And much, much longer for what I'm planning on specialising in.

Caring and fluffy in a Healer is often misconcieved as a important trait, perhaps. And this is where you'll roll your eyes and think me a stereotypical Slytherin again. Even though that's not the principle here. Pathology.

Oh yeah, you can see the cuddly bunnies just jumping around. Because there's nothing more interesting than finding out why someone died. No more powerful force than death, everyone dies, but it's easier to stop if someone finds out why.

You mean you think I think I'm God's gift to the world and make everyone happy? Wow, psychoanalysis in 10 minutes. I certainly don't, thank you.

It is, but it doesn't make me some kind of sick necrophiliac, which is what everyone seems to think.
