Is everything salvageable?" she asked intently. Leobald shifted around in his seat to find a comfortable position when Gemma spoke. Turning to her he simply said "Thank you." Truth be told he hadn’t exactly paid any mind to what he had put on for the feast. He liked blue so he had put on his navy robes to lighten his mood. But of course Gemma had to bring up the last thing he wanted to think about at the moment, the reference section post fire zone. Drinking some water he responded "I’m afraid most of the books are unsalvageable. They are just too burned."
"If only I had fireproofed the books." Leo muttered half to himself and half to Gemma. Quote:

Did anyone else feel that? Her spoon became mighty interesting after only a few seconds. "Good evening Medea!" Leo called out with a wave as he watched the DADA professor take her seat on the staff dais, but on the other side of the table. The staff table was impractical at times he thought to himself. They all had their designated places and if anyone took the wrong seat it turned into a scene like for the late Astronomy professor at the beginning of the year.
May she rest in piece. Quote:

Pulling her slivery sparkling robes up over her black dress, she shift pass the ghost and took her seat.
"Good evening." She announced to the table. If Leo could have chosen where he sat at the table it would probably have been next to his best friend Sophia. As if she had known he was thinking of her Sophia showed up in sparkling robes to the dias. "Good evening Sophia!" Leo greeted her. "Nice dress." He knew he could count on her company after the feast with some more book cleaning. Quote:

Thankfully she had gotten separated from the plant-hunting group and wasn't able to make it to the ghost's firey explosion. "Over the summer I will try to contact the owner of the bookstore I worked at a while back, perhaps he will have some at least Muggle volumes he can donate." She would just say there was a school fire at a school she taught at. She would just have to make up a different school. Where some of his female colleagues went for colourful dresses Calista showed up in a black dress as a way to show respect for the two staff members they had lost this term. Looking over at her he inclined his head a little. "Good evening Calista. Thank you. It still hasn’t sunk in yet that the entire library could have burned up if we hadn’t managed to stop the fire from spreading." Leo responded thoughtfully.
"You would do that for the library? I'd be grateful for any books that I can get to fill up the gaping holes on the shelves." He meant what he said. Any books anyone donated would be welcomed with open arms. Quote:

Leobald greeted sort of speechless as she slipped into the second seat to the left of him. "I like the flowers. What kind is it?" he asked to make polite conversation as they waited for the speech.
