A funny sort? That was charitable. "Yes, he was quite the funny sort back then. I don't think much has changed."
"It's nice to know I'm not the only one who struggles with what path to follow. Sometimes I feel so foolish, when everyone else has these wonderful careers. I'll find mine eventually, I suppose."
"Two days off it? I can handle that. Thank you so much for fixing me up. I know it's your job, but I really do appreciate it." Su smiled at Luna.
When Luna invited Su to lunch, she suppressed a laugh. She had been planning to invite Luna. The woman sounded very tentative about it. Su wondered why, but decided not to say anything.
"Lunch? Of course I want to! I was actually hoping to ask you, but you beat me to it. Great minds think alike, I suppose. Ravenclaw, and all that. But yes. My schedule is very open at the moment, so do you want to owl me when you're free?" Su smiled broadly, delighted to be making new friends after so long away.
Su slipped off the examining table, gingerly putting weight on her ankle, then more confidently as it supported her with no pain. "Wonderful," she sighed. Then she realized they hadn't discussed payment. "I don't have a lot of money, so I'm not sure how I should pay for this. My mother just sent me some Chinese herbs for potions, things that are rather rare in England, so would some of those do?" She offered Luna the package as they walked back to the reception area.
"Oh, yes, you'll find it. Or rather, I think those sorts of things find us, you know?" She smiled.
"It's no problem. Thats why I'm here. Just be careful with those heels, Su. As for payment, we realise that not many people have the money to pay us. We do take money, of course, but it's mainly whatever you can trade. And these herbs are wonderful. I've only read about them, as you're right; they're quite scarce here. Thank you." She took the package from Su.
"I'll send you an owl soon, Su, and we'll go out to lunch. I daresay I could use a reason to leave this place some times. I like working here, but it's nice tot take breaks." Luna smiled wryly.

"I'll be careful in the future," Su promised. "And I'm glad the herbs are useful."
Su smiled. "Wonderful! I'll look forward to your owl. And yes, breaks are good."
"Thank you, Luna. I'll see you soon!" Su smiled at the kind lady at the reception desk before walking outside and apparating home.
