| YesJess! | Captain Goggles | Mama Badger | Eva's Soul Sister | An OG™ | It's all in the Numbers The damp weather did not do much to improve Josephina's mood. Though she was grateful that her dwellings were located inside the castle and also that her responsibilities didn't extend to seeing the kids off the train. Which meant she took great care in finalizing some things around her classroom before getting ready for the feast. A feast that she had to look exceptionally presentable for, as a veteran professor, and head house, considering it was the first with the new headmistress. Not to mention if the rumors were true of the Board of Governors dining with them.
Clacking her way down the aisle, she noticed the sorting ceremony had begun and immediately her hazel eyes found her Hufflepuffs, searching for the new ones. And then, her eyes came up to the dais and she frowned; so many chairs. But at least one thing was consistent, which was that her chair was still second from the end. Quote:

His eyes wandered the table, and he saw the stunning redhead he'd agreed to return to teach for. He nodded in her direction. Gingers always stick together. With no Oliver anymore. But alas, the Runes Professor chair was not void either as she'd grown accustomed to. She remembered him as a visiting professor for several lessons, though he never seemed entirely too friendly. "Welcome back, Tristan." But just because he wasn't friendly, didn't give her reason to deny him of her own friendliness. Quote:

Perhaps she should have shown a bit more of her former house spirit and worn something in brilliant marigold, but no matter. There would be plenty of time for that.
"Hellooooooooo dears," she sang as she made her way towards her seat and sat down. This was her seat, wasn't it? Turning to her left, Marion noticed she was seated next to a blonde woman in a red dress and she inclined her head in greeting. "Evening darling, Marion Burbage." And then toward her other side, it seemed that Edvard Roslund had been replaced with an .... older woman. Who, like her, seemed very open and friendly. And chattery; unlikely the first Astronomy Professor she sat beside, Risu. Risu and her had been accustomed to sitting, staring out, observing. Something, from first perceptions, she gathered she was not going to do with this woman. "Hello. Welcome to Hogwarts. I'm Josephina Hadley, the Arithmancy Professor." And they were obviously going to be meal partners for the year. Quote:

And despite that stormy weather, which usually put a damper on things, she couldn't help but feel EXCITED. She was back at Hogwarts! She was allowed, no, she was supposed to sit at the staff table. She had a really cool prefix before her name! So many things to be excited for.
With a slight skip in her step, the newly appointed Care of Magical Creatures Professor made her way up to the staff table, shooting everyone already present a grin. Her eyes briefly glanced around for Cece, but not seeing the Healer yet, she moved herself around the table and got comfortable in her own seat.
Oh, look! She could see everything from her seat! Exciting. Her eyes scanned over the elderly woman to another woman seated beside her. In William's old seat. And Rosaline. And Maya. And Merlin only knew or remembered who else. "Welcome to Hogwarts. It's a great view from up here, no?" Fina said conversationally. At least before she spotted someone else. Someone VERY familiar just a few seats down. Next to the Headmistress. Quote:

Could it? "Well .... I'll ... be...." Fina mouthed, utterly speechless. Really, what was one supposed to say when they suddenly, after 17 years, discovered their former Defense Professor sharing the same table as them. Which was different from sharing the same table as Vindictus. Cassandra was well... she was different. She taught everyone. Vindictus only taught those who took Flying, which she didn't.
Suddenly, she found herself shrinking slightly in her chair and wishing she'd worn her black dress instead of the bright yellow.
