Rolling up the sleeves on his robes, Leobald said to Sebastian. "Mr Gibbins, do you need any help with the decorating?" The students were already working on putting up tinsel.

Ah good. Seb had been a bit worried that none of the staff members were going to join in. So he was glad to see the Librarian and he flashed the man a grin and gave him a slap on the back. "Thanks for coming down. More hands are most welcome." Not only with the decorating. Not that he thought the students would get out of hand but just in case, it was nice to have another staffer on hand.

Well this one was mighty cheery, wasn't she? And why not? It was Christmas time and it always put everyone in a good mood, even though it was cold outside. Seb had to admit that it was taking some getting used to. But he gave the Ravenclaw a smile and nodded his head. "Your help will be most welcome."

Oh, that's right...it was December already.

The surreal feeling of just how quickly this term was passing, Kurumi approached the small crowd and stood near Mr. Gibbins. "Still need an extra wand?" she asked as she looked at the trees again. "Any reason for there being twelve trees?"

Seeing the Gryffindor Prefect enter the Great Hall, Seb had to chuckle, he knew that she wouldn't miss out on helping out. "Most definitely." And then he leaned down a little and whispered to her, "And some help keeping an eye on the younger students too." Sometimes excitement could lead to chaos.

As for the twelve christmas trees, Seb shrugged his shoulders. "Just following tradition. There has always been twelve christmas trees in the Great Hall for as long as I can remember."
