So he'd been thinking it'd be a toss between the economic and social council or back to the trading area. But he'd hate to see him backtrack.

"I'd hate to see you backtrack to magical trading personnel. I think your goal is an excellent one to aim for. And we need a fresh new face in the council." Nodding, he looked back at Harland, "You got the position there if you'd like it. I think you'd do very well."
Ahhh, so his Professor was right; pulling an all-nighter before his Arithmancy NEWT turned out to be beneficial after all. That was the first day Harland really got any of what he was doing too - and hey, he turned out to be pretty good at it!

But Gavin was right, backtracking was not something Harland had been hoping to do, and he was happy to hear his boss agree to this. And it was just that easy?? Gavin must have already had that in mind. Harland couldn't believe his luck at actually getting the job he wanted and so quickly! "Wow, really? Thanks so much, I appreciate it," he said with one of his award-winning smiles and reaching out to shake his boss's hand.
