| be curious, not judgmental With the recent cutbacks, Professor James was relieved to have her own office where she could control its state and contents. Aside from her bing cherry shortage - she wasn't going to hinder the poor lone house elf at the school - her office was in the same pristine state as the previous term. Instead of the bowl at the edge of her desk containing her favorite fruit, the bowl was filled to the brim with shiny, round bronze objects: knuts. For... emergencies among the students, naturally. Surely the Headmistress wouldn't mind how the students paid their dues, eh? Text Cut: Nessie Quote:

At the door of Professor J's office, there was only one thing Nessie could smell which just like always was peppermint. She smiled, it made her feel more at home already, considering everything going on. Summer had been long and there were a few things she wanted to speak to James about, but more importantly she had something she wanted to give the Professor. Just a small gift of appreciation, because James deserved that.
Ella would pitch up soon too, Ness had told her to join, but till she came, the seventh year knocked on the open door, her free hand occupied with a gift bag filled with presents inside. "Professor?" She peeked her head inside. Text Cut: Ellaboo Quote:

She missed her Hogwarts big brother and was constantly wondering how he was doing. Who better to ask then his mom though, yeah? "Hey Ness!" She greeted as she walked up beside the Head Girl. The blonde then peeked her head inside the doorway as well and waved. "Hello Professor, mind some company?"
While reviewing the term's Quidditch schedule at her desk, her thoughts distant to the various payment centers around the school, two voices - two very familiar, welcome voices - stole her attention away from the parchment before her.
Professor James positively beamed.
"Miss Dixon and Miss Bishop!" Rising from behind the desk, James moved toward the doorway to hug her Hufflepuffs. "Ah, how convenient - my former captain and my new captain - congratulations by the way, Miss Bishop - and you, Nessie, on your Head Girl position." She gave both a motherly embrace before pulling back and putting her hands on her hips, her gaze drifting to the bag in the Head Girl's hand. The sides of her lips quirked upward in a smile, but she continued, addressing both of them with glee and interest, "How was your summer?"
