Oh, but Treyen had totally forgotten he was leading Ellie to the Staff table, because, in all fairness, he'd lost the feel on his hand, and most of him, at the sight of the most beautiful person in the table, and the room.
Healer Moretti. Of course.
And he was smiling, too, who wouldn't? Right?
It wasn't until he heard the awful, awful words that someone else said that he got back to reality. He frowned, instantly, because he couldn't believe that this other woman had managed to link this moment to Moretti. He...hated that.
'Your new Divination professor'.
He hated that even more.
Treyen was now feeling Ellie's hand in his, and he dropped it. Didn't want to have that connected to the newly appointed Divination Professor either.
Truth be told, he was feeling quite nervous, and disappointed, and empty again, because Kingsley was not here yet.
"You are?" he said, after glancing down to Kurumi. There was a fake hint of curiosity. He'd already heard she was.
"I guess you're the one that should know that you have some BIG shoes to fill," he said, in a very serious tone, and he actually wondered why had he asked Ellie to come along. And, the woman that had taken Nolan's place, by force, probably, did have some MAJORLY BIG shoes to fill. Seriously. Like, Siriusly.
