As more professors join him at the staff table, he nodded his head to each of them and tried his best to offer each a smile. But it was so HARD when he did not feel like smiling. He once again found himself jealous of Old Man River, but this time because of the old man's tranquil appearance. When Peyton showed up, he thought about asking her how the lint roller had worked out for her when he suddenly felt the urge to lint roll his clothing himself...only when he reached for it he remembered that he didn't have it on him. Because he wasn't even in a suit.
Oh yeah. There was some wibbling going on, but he somehow managed to nod his head at the Potions Mistress. THIS WAS ALL YOUR FAULT YOU KNOW!
Things only got WORSE when the Headmistress showed up. Pet rock ABANDONER! He still hadn't found Pebbles and he had tried over and over again to drag himself over to the quidditch pitch to look for her. He got as far as the staircases and then became too exhausted trying to time his descent with their constant moving. Or Peeves would show up and go chanting about his golden underpants. Or a feline monster would appear and he would hide in his office cowering in terror.
Oooooooooh blazing comets there she was.
Airey sort of just FROZE when the Divination professor made her appearance and just STARED at her like an awkward middle school boy at a school dance. What should he do? Say hi? Say bye? You say goodbye and I say hello? Wave? Salute? Thumbs up?
In the end he didn't end up doing anything but stare at her.
And then Medea was blushing and trying not to look his way and Calista was talking to her and it was all so overwhelming and he went to loosen the tie around his neck only it WASN'T there because he had no suits to wear and suiting up was too much effort and Pebbles was missing and he was probably going to break his spork again and this time the groundskeeper wouldn't be there to take points away give him looks for doing it because his SOUL had been SUCKED out and then the two women at the table were making him feel uncomfortable and squirmy and he was afraid to open his mouth because he had TWO TEETH MISSING because Erik had PUNCHED him in the face and now his two front teeth were in his pocket because he wanted to see if Cece could fix him but now she WASN'T here and probably wouldn't show up because the school was POOR and her hours were cut and...
"AND POOR PLUTO IS SO LONELY ORBITING OUT THERE IN SPACE BECAUSE IT USED TO BELONG TO THE COOL KIDS PLANET CLUB BUT THEN IT DID SOMETHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY AND WAS REJECTED!"
And then his forehead connected with a loud THUD against the table while his hands were rested palms down on either side of his head. OH THE HUMANITY!
