Ajala mentally noted the information before she could forget it again, but she was apparently so focused on the mandrakes that she failed to notice Shippo coming into the garden until Nathalia called his name. Recognizing the fox shifter she had met yesterday, she nodded her head to him with a polite "Namaste.", then helped guide him to a patch of land with a pot of mandrake seedling nearby before settling on her own patch near him. "Perhaps we should prepare ample space for planting first before we do anything else..." she mused, both to herself and to Shippo. 

Before she could say anything else, however, a thundering stampede came towards their location. The Nagini rose up to look at the source of the commotion: the Jousting club making a headlong run through the gardens. While she had no problem with them practicing, the one student she was particularly cautious of came galloping down bare-chested with the jacket he was supposed to be wearing used as a makeshift towel. As much as she enjoyed his overall friendly personality and considered him to be someone she enjoyed talking to, she was quite willing to strangle Simon or tamper with his drink if he trampled over the plants in the garden. With the pace the club members were running at, she hoped that none of them cause any damage to the garden.
