i wanted to be everything on the planet
"I don't think you'd be far from the truth, this coming from a woman who's taught at a lot of schools." Eve wasn't sure if this made her a better judge of magical schools or simply strengthened her preference for Hogwarts over the rest of them. She had always thought of Hogwarts, no matter where she was teaching, and always seemed to compare the school where she working to the school where she had been educated. She had loved looking out of her window into the beauty of the Amazon rainforest but Hogwarts was like a home from home to her, even if she did intend to go back to all of her previous schools once the time came for her to leave once again. If she had to leave once again.
"Let's just say I've slept with more people than it's good to be proud of and leave it at that." It had often been against her better judgement, frequently waking up to see someone rather unattractive. She had just as often woken up to see someone extremely attractive but she had left them all within minutes of opening her eyes. Whether she'd have liked to have a shot at a relationship or not was irrelevant because the story would always be the same. She'd have to either tell them her secret and risk being exposed to everyone else or watch them grow gradually older before needing to leave them when her own lack of ageing became apparent. You could only get away with claiming to use beautifying potions for so long. "I'm sure you won't find that difficult to relate to with looks as good as your own."
"Or that," Evelyn replied. She personally found the age gap would always be creepy in a relationship because though she might look twenty-four, she was far from it. Unfortunately for her, finding someone around her age was rather more difficult now. Even Michael was a good fifty years older than she was, though it was refreshing to be younger than her company for her once. "It's quite something." Eve wasn't entirely sure how to express the pure happiness through the constraints of the English language.
