Adorable
"Here, kitty kitty! Come here, kitty," Helga cooed softly when she finally found the cute black kitten that was originally Rowena in the Room of Requirement. She pried her eyes off the little kitten for a moment to take a look at the room. Every time she was in here, she was amazed by what her fellow friends and she had managed to do. This time around it was a small zen garden, obviously Rowena had been looking for a place to soothe her nerves.
From the way said kitten bucked and grumbled however, it wasn't quite soothing enough. Rowena definitely didn't find her current dilemma half as amusing as everyone else, but Helga couldn't help but beam at the look of her. Her blue eyes were just as piercing as they were on the human Rowena and the blue bow around her small neck was just adorable.
"Come here, darling, I've got the antidote for your little Charms mishap," she went on, but Rowena the kitten only eyed her sceptically. "It's in the strawberry shortcake, silly. Sal and I know that you'd rather stay a kitten than touch those foul smelling potions of his. Although you iare/i very adorable to look at," she finished with a glint in her eyes. She wouldn't mind having a kitten although she'd rather have Rowena in full human display than like this.
Grumpy as she was already, Rowena the kitten did not take this in very well. Adorable. Pah. She wanted to get back to her research, adorable or not. And she wanted to hex the bollocks off the person who did this to her. But oh, she could do adorable if Helga wanted it so badly. She had a decided about her as she snorted in defiance and trotted away. She could play with the bushes all day long, if she had to.
"Oh, come on, darling. You know I didn't mean it in a bad way. You make a very adorable kitten but I'd rather have you glower at me in human form. Eat the shortcake. Now." And with that she set the potion-injected shortcake on the floor and waited for Rowena to come – which she did – and eat it – which she did – and transform back – which happened right thereafter.
"I expect a thank you for that," Helga said with a wink. "We could've left you as a kitten all day long."
"Fine," Rowena grumbled, "thank you. Here, have this," she said and gave Helga a deep kiss. "That enough of a thank you?"
"For now, yes, darling."
"Good. Can we go after Godric, that oaf, now, so I can hex his bollocks off and transfigure him into a pipe stuffed with pungent tobacco?"
"Of course, dear."
