As their conversation continued, Julianna's posture didn't change. She noticed his gaze drop briefly to her hands. It was almost as if she was deliberately hiding them from him. Which was pointless, there was nothing to show. Not a scratch on them. No evidence of what had happened between them in the woods except for the strange and lingering feelings and questions she had now.
"It's probably better that you stayed away. The kittens are big enough now that she won't be so defensive."
Which said nothing for Julianna's feeling of being defensive around him.
"I'm worried that I won't be able to rehabilitate them for the wild. Without her mate I've had to interfere too much for their well-being."
She gazed down at her wine, somewhat forlorn. At present, if they didn't return to the wild, Julianna would have to find a conservation effort that would help them. She didn't have the resources to house an entire family of Kneazles.
"You can come by anytime," she said suddenly. Smile back on her face, in an attempt to keep up her cheerful demeanor. "How's Quidditch," she asked to change the subject. She didn't want to think about who, or what had been lurking in the forest that night.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
