Gesturing that she could sit down in one of the comfy chairs by the unlit fireplace Leo was about to sit down in the other when Sophie surprised him with a box full of crystallised pineapple sweets. Accepting the box he couldn’t help but blush just a little at her. "Thank you so much for this Sophie. Crystallised pineapple sweets I haven't eaten since I was about your age. And thank you for believing that I’ll be a good head for your house. I hope I can fill Calista's shoes. I know she was loved by you eagles very much."

Leo was about to ask Sophie another question when he was distracted by another knock on the door. "Excuse me, just a moment Sophie." He said as he moved to open his office door again. Who could it be this time? A professor or another student?

Peering out at the senior claw Marcus Branxton, Leo flashed him a warm smile. "Good morning, Marcus! Did you wish to speak to me in private? I've already got a visitor inside." If the nature of his visit wasn’t very private then Leo wouldn’t mind chatting with Marcus and Sophie at the same time.

"I did, sir, yes, thank you," Sophie replied brightly, turning the question back around to him, "And I hope you did as well - nice time off?" She assumed he did - didn't all professors love to be away from the students for a little while? Just made sense.

Taking a seat gladly, the third year stole a glance around the office curiously while he spoke, surprised that he seemed so surprised by her gift. He really must not have gotten student suck-ups too often, then, huh? She smiled, happy to have touched him so, "You're right, sir - I loved Professor Elwood as our Head, but I never took her class, whereas I do visit the library and play Gobstones under your advising, so it'll be nice to have a Head of House I'll see around more often." She had opened her mouth to go on, but that was when the knock on the door occurred, and Sophie waited anxiously to see who it was -

Marcus.

"Mo?" Sophie grinned, rising from the seat to hurry over to the door. "Moooo." She extended a hand for him to take, further inviting him inside, even though Kitridge's invitation was probably enough. "If y'wanna talk to him in private, I'll go." Or they could have a Ravenclaw party. His choice.
