"It's wild. I can't see as well, but I can smell, hear, and feel like I never have before," he said, relaxing as he felt he was completely human again. "And I can balance and jump just like a real cat! If I didn't retain my own mind when changing and real memories when I change back, I would swear it's a dream," he sighed, leaning against Kylee for a moment as he felt his energy returning. His mentor swore the transformation would get easier over time, but for someone just on the edge of being a squib, it would take quite some time to get accustomed to the efforts required.<br/><br/>Realizing he was leaning against Kylee, Laurent shot up straight for a moment, not wanting to overstep the bounds of their friendship. He'd been so careful about not overstepping things for the entire time they'd known each other, and despite his own vow to make this year different, he didn't want to start with offending his best friend, the single most important person at Hogwarts to him, no matter how much more he hoped she could be. "Yeah, sorry about that," he said as he leaned away, jumping up from the desk. "Oh, and sorry about rubbing against you when I was a cat. Things just feel so much more intense, and your shirt is really soft to rub against," he stuttered, knowing as it came out the explanation made no sense, but it was the best he could manage.
