Paul was getting much exercise today! He was slowly making his rounds....holding the cute plant under his arm, he gently knocked on Julien's door.

To be honest, he was a little intimidated by the man, but he was sure he'd soon get over that! Julien seemed lovely! A little rigid and whatnot, but everyone was different, and Paul knew that the world needed all SORTS of people! So he whistled to himself as he waited.

Liar Uncle Julien was a Liar! He said 1st Floor at the Feast his Office was on the 1st floor. What was all that mumbo-jumbo about Torrance not lying to him if he was going to lie to Torrance.

He stopped at waiting room finally at the right location.

A Location that took him FLIGHTS of STAIRS to get to. At one point the Stairs moved on him and he got lost. Then he found his way back to the stairs and went all the way down to the first floor then had to go to the second...then Finally...to the Third floor.

He would have ignored any sign telling him to wait, but nope. There was an Old guy in front of him. White Hair blinding him like the sun reflecting off of snow. Wow that was REALLY white hair.
"You here to see my Uncle too, Mister?" Torrance smiled. Though...wait age, and Oh this guy must be a Professor. Now that he recalled, the guy WAS up at the Staff table.

Paul continued whistling until he heard a voice. "Oh!" he spun around and smiled. "Hello there...." A new one. FIRST YEAR ALERT. Paul would have to learn their names....QUICKLY. "Is Julien your uncle, eh?" he asked, smirking a little. "That means you must be on your best behavior...or else he'll tell your parents?" he was mostly kidding, and was chuckling as such.

"I didn't know he was your uncle. I don't know what I would have done had I gone to school while a family member of mine was teaching." It would have been...a different story, for Paul. He probably wouldn't have been as outgoing. His family made him nervous.

Torrance nodded yes to 'Is Julien your Uncle' but then nodded no 'or he'll tell your parents' "Uncle Julien is pretty much my parent. 3 Months a Year." but well now that'd be different. "But I suppose that's more like 10 Months a year now." MERLIN OH NO!

He smiled. "Don't worry Mister Professor." He made a guess at it "I sure it wouldn't have hindered you one bit. I sure as hell won't let it bother me." He extended his hand out to the Mister Professor. "I'm Tory. Who the Hell are you...Sir?" he was being polite, see. Adding Sir was a sign of Respect right? This way if his Uncle opened the door on him there he'd see him on his best behavior.

It was nice to hear Julien was somewhat of a father figure for the boy. How sweet! And Julien was a good role model for a young man. "Ahh..ten months or so now, yes." He smiled.

What a...colorful vocabulary the boy had. Indeed, Paul widened his eyes at Tory and,....cleared his throat. "You probably...should not speak so.." He had to choose the right word. "Uh..not so...well, rude. You shouldn't speak to anyone that way, m'boy." he sighed. The 'sir' was all fine and dandy...but hmph.

Did the boy understand? Paul was quite displeased...

Oh um...okay he was one of those. SUPER polite people "Sorry, Mister Professor" Whom he still doesn't know. "I'm Tory, Who the Heck are you Sir?" There now he corrected himself.

He patted his hand on his pants as if the handshake he was going to offer would not have been good enough as well with his bad word. He extended his hand out once more for the Professor to Shake since this one wasn't so tainted with bad speech. "I'm not trying to be Rude, Mister Professor."
He meant no harm in his speech. Hell, it's just how he heard his cousin Ross talk all the time. He got to say 'hell' a hell of a lot.

His second victim to welcome to Hogwarts was the Professor for his best and favourite subject, Charms. Unlike when he had gone to the Potions Professor, he was smiling now, Head Boy badge glowing a bit as he had charmed it to do so. He felt a bit sad that the previous Professor had left, she had been pretty to look at and was very friendly. The only thing he knew now was that the new one was a man though he didn’t know which one from the few who he had seen at the start of term feast.

He took note of the pretty looking seating area, seriously, the man had good taste if he said so himself, before he walked to the door , read the sign and knocked three times. Then he turned around to the book rack to pick up a magazine, flipping through it.

Julien was in his office. After that feast he was going to stick to his office and classrooms. He was just about to make a cup a tea when he heard the door. Setting things down he walked towards the door and opened it, but opened it just as he heard the words from a familiar voice. His brows furrowed and he opened the door wider.

“I couldn’t agree more Professor, my nephew seems to have forgotten how he’s been raised with his excitement for coming to school. I think five points off Gryffindor might help him remember to respect his elders. “ He would have probably taken more, but it wasn’t fully his job to discipline since the other professor was who he talked to first.

“Was this a joint meeting today, or would you like to come in first Professor Meyers?”





Preparing for lessons were always so much fun to Julien. He could really get into his books, figure things out and decide exactly what he wanted to do with the students. After the feast he decided to throw out his original plan for the first class and go with something different. The students of Hogwarts seemed to think they had their own rules and not school rules, so maybe he'd go with just that.

Hearing the door, he got up to answer it. He was never one to just open it with a wand. No it was more polite in his eyes to answer in person. "May I help you?" Looking at the Head Boy as he looked through a magazine. It was good that the student leaders were making an appearance. Maybe there were some good ones after all.

Paul felt awkward. Before he could answer young Tory, his uncle was out here and FUSSING. The Herbologist's cheeks blushed, and he averted his gaze. He hadn't meant to get the boy in trouble, and he felt a little bad.

"Ah--I am Paul Myers, m'boy," he said softly, before looking over at Julien. "Er...well I just brought you this plant...as a welcome gift. I don't have to see you at all--I don't want to take up your time with your nephew!" He smiled nervously (and guiltily) and wondered where this would put Gryffindor now...in the negatives already, too.

Bradson wanted to meet some of his professors, not all of them but some of them. Was doing this considered being a suck up? He wasn't a suck up, he didn't want to be called a suck up. Where to stop first? Brady didn't know what to think about any of the classes. He didn't know which ones would be his favorite.

Charms it was?

The first year looked around, trying not to get lost to find the Charms Professor's office. Where was the office anyway? They really needed to give new students and first years a map. You can't assume that all of us will figure out where the classrooms are after one day. That's impossible. After walking around for about thirty minutes he finally found it. Bradson walked into what he thought had to be the waiting area. The little badger took a seat and waited to be next...if the professor was with someone.

Torrance's mouth flew ajar when his Uncle came out of his office and was already in scold mode. That's all Torrance thought he was going to receive too, but 5 points from his House. How was he supposed to display Gryffindor Pride when he's throwing their house 5 more points under -100. "But, but no. I was being respectful!" see LOOK his hand was extended and he was introducing himself to the Mister Professor Standards! Mister Professor Myers' standards.

This was a total bummer.

How was he going to call his Uncle out on Lying to him now?!? 1st Floor 3rd Floor!!! UGH Life's not fair 'Ug Blah get used to it Ug Blah Ug Ug' Torrance imitated his Uncle's voice in his head.

Torrance lowered his hand in defeat, but he won't forget this Uncle. There are ways to work the angles, even on you...He thought....hopefully...maybe...maybe not. He hadn't found those angles yet, but they're there they gotta be!

"I was checking to see if I could find your Office, and I did. I don't gotta be here if you two want to talk."

As he heard the door open, Yoongi closed the magazine and placed it back in the book rack where he had gotten it from. Then he turned around and looked at the new Professor standing in the door way. Was this one of Candice’s dreamy guys, or whatever? He didn’t know and could hardly ask if he was one of those McDreamy, McSteamy or McVet now could he?

He let out a chuckle at his own thoughts as he moved closer. “No, I’m not here for help” he said with a smile. “I just came by to welcome you at Hogwarts and…” he sighed, running a hand through his grey/silver hair as he did so. “Well, to apologise for the , you know, feast” he said, smiling awkwardly. “Seeing as I’m the Head Boy here and it was mainly my own House who caused the trouble but really sir, they’re good kids. They just….need to know when and where to use their energies” And he agreed with Professor Flamsteed that a food fight was not one of them.

“Soooo, yeah” he said, awkwardly again and looked around for something else to say when it hit him. “Oh, I’m Yoongi by the way, Yoongi Hyland” and he held out his hand.

Had he made the other professor uncomfortable taking points? Well maybe more of them needed to be doing this. He was rather impressed by the Gryffindor head of house for taking as many as he did. Maybe staff wasn't so crazy after all. "No, it's fine. Please both of you can come in." He opened the door further for them. "Thank you for the welcoming present, you are the Hufflepuff Head of House, correct?" His other nephew had just been sorted there.

"Saying the word hell is not being respectful. I'm not sure where you have learned to speak like that, but it won't be happening again around here. " He spoke stern to his nephew, but with a caring tone as well.

"Have a seat in either chairs won't you."


** Go ahead and post in the office if you want to still play

Without a knock Julien didn't know anyone was out in the waiting room. He had been in there just tiding up and decided to go make sure the waiting room was clear of any clutter. Clutter was not something he dealt with well. He had to have everything in the right order.

Opening the door he noticed a child sitting in the chairs, "Can I help you??



He listened to the head boy speak, well this was interesting. "Well I do appreciate the welcome and the apology. My nephew has just been sorted into that house and I wave very disappointed when he said the prefects had a hand in it. I do hope your leadership is a bit higher then the rest. If you don't give yourself high standards you will never meet the potential you are can have." Moving out of the way of the door he offered the boy entrance, only if he wanted to of course. "If you would like to come in I have some tea, I think." Had his wife packed it?

Good kids and getting energy out. It was a shame they didn't have quidditch, but that was no excuse to act the way these children were acting. "I hope you are correct on that. I will be expecting more order in my classroom then what I saw at the feast."

Brady just sat there with his guitar in hand and wanted. Was he supposed to knock? He couldn't remember, he didn't want to be a bother if the professor was with another student. Then the first year had heard the door open to the office. Nope, no one what this tall bald guy was there. There was nothing wrong with being bald at all and this professor dude seemed to look good in all that baldness.

Bradson looked up to the bald man. "I was told by some older students that it's a good idea to meet the professors before classes start. They didn't tell me why though but I already visited one." The Scottish boy nodded. "I'm Bradson Somerhalder, sir but I like to be called Brady if you don't mind. Unless your a formal person then Mr. Somerhalder is fine too, sir." Just not Bradson.

Azura moved into The Professor's waiting room and she took a deep breath as she knocked on the door before sitting down. She nervously tugged on her black hair while her purple eyes scanned the room. This was her first meeting with the Professor and she hoped he was nice! Especially with what she was here to ask him about..

She only hoped he didn't fully realize that she was the girl that had fallen off the wall in his class..

She hoped he had missed that little show..

He eyed the student, this was interesting. He was use to interesting he had Torrance as a nephew. "Older students told you to?" That was even more interesting. Did they do it as a joke or were they actually being truthful to the first year. "Nice you meet you Brady, I'm Professor Primeaux. Would you care to come in my office?" Up to him really, but they could have a little meeting if he wanted.

ooc: you can now post in the office

Hearing a knock at the door Julien got up and moved to open it. Seeing the young Ravenclaw from class he opened the door a bit more. "Hello, may I help you?" Was it something with class or had she needed something else he wondered.

Whew!! He hadn't seemed to recognize her yet! So that was good! "Hello Professor Primeaux, my name is Azura Kennedy." She said with a bit of a nervous smile and she had to clasp her hands behind her back in order to not tug at her hair!

"Um, well.. You see.. I was wondering about the cushioning charm you placed on the floor in the second room? Are we going to learn that this year? And if we aren't could you teach me?" Her words came out in a bit of a rush.. It was taking up much of her bravery in order to just look up at him!

He knew who she was and he had remembered her from class. What he wasn't sure was why she was at his door, but she seemed nervous about whatever it was. Listening he soon realized and chuckled a bit. "The cushioning charm is a good one to know. A bit more advanced for a first year, but I think you could be able to learn it. "

Anyone was able to learn if they wanted to learn, that was his stance on education completely. Why don't you come in Azura and we can discuss what you need to do to learn and practice a charm such as the cushioning one."[/b] He stepped aside to allow her access in.

ooc: you can now post in his office

Bounce. Bounce. Bounce. Bounce. The small Slytherin hopped his way along the corridor to the Charms professor's office, humming contentedly. He had put off bothering the man to ask his question, but... he couldn't keep putting it off. It was too risky. Every day he tried to eat breakfast without having asked it, it became harder to swallow his toast. Even with milk.

The diminutive boy knocked on the door gently, tilting his head and standing there for a moment before skipping himself over to one of the couches and sitting down. Floomp. He would wait! And while he waited... he put a book across his knees and opened it to read. Moooooore information about the Venemous Tentatcula, please.

He had flooed home to see if family real quick. It was weird not being home. He wasn't use to it and his youngest daughter was not use to being this long away from him. So a quick trip home was needed, but now he was back. Just getting back he had stepped into his office just to hear the knock on the door. Had he forgot to put up a sign. Well that was something he would make sure to remember next time.

Going over he straightened his jacket and opened the door. "Good day, may I help you?"

When the door opened, Jay looked up from the book in his lap; upon seeing it was the professor, he closed it and set it aside so he could hop up off the couch. He gave the book a look; it better not wander off or anything! He'd just leave it on the couch until he'd bothered the professor about stuff. Yes.

"Hi professor!" he bounced a little, tilting his head back a bit to look at the man. "I um... I had a question. About... bubbles."

It sounded almost silly when he said it aloud. Almost silly, but not quite. At least not to him. Jaemin tugged at his own sleeve a bit, trying to think about the best way to phrase what he was thinking about. He probably should have figured this out beforehand.

Seeing a first year at his door Julien gave a nod, "Hello" They were always such curious creatures. He hadn't forgotten just coming from a school where he taught others like him. It was smaller than Hogwarts, but the children were always the same in some ways.

"Bubbles? What about bubbles?"

He stepped back and opened the door wider, "Why don't you come in."


ooc: go ahead and post in the office now

Haddie wasn't herself today. Though that could be said for most days since she returned from the break, it was much more noticeable today. She just didn't seem to have her usual energetic liveliness today. Though most Professors and a large amount of the student body were probably more thrilled than anything to have a rather subdued Hadley Denaker.

She knocked on Professor Primeaux's door, just a few solid taps, rather than her usual shave and a haircut, two bits knock, and glanced around. In her hand was the reason she wanted to talk to the charms Professor: a small, thin mp3 player. Of course she knew electrical and electronic things didn't work well around magic and didn't work at all at Hogwarts, she really missed music. Especially now, when there weren't many people hanging around her. Sure no one officially sided with Rachel, but unofficially, they sort of all did.

Haddie took a seat on the red couch nearest to the door and waited. Quietly. It was just weird to see. And a bit unsettling.

As Haddie had knocked on the door it could be noticed swinging slowly open and a paper or two might have floated out from the issues going on inside. A booming voice could be heard from in the office, "Come in" Professor Primeaux was a little preoccupied so he didn't get to come fully greet at the door, but his two words were clear enough for the guest to enter.
