Most of the wizards Jennifer works with aren't particularly old (or particularly wise, for that matter). But she's happy for Bee, coming from a universe not too different from this one. From what she's seen, that tends to make for a more comfortable transition. If nothing else, it reduces the amount of studying people have to do just to get along in the city (studying that denial-ridden newcomers often don't want to bother with).
"Ununited," she confirms with a wry smile. "I'm from the Kingdom of Hereford, ruled by King Snodd." If she doesn't sound particularly impressed by King Snodd, that's because she definitely isn't. "I was surprised to learn they're united here, but it seems to be working out for them." Part of her is resentful she couldn't get dropped off by a rift in this universe's UK, but a magic-less version of her old stomping grounds might have been more difficult to cope with than Manhattan.
