The spring in her step as she made her way to the staff room would show anyone just how excited Nessa was for the holiday party. Not only did she and Cassie love parties and everything that went with them - planning, hosting, eating, etc.. but what better way to get to know their new coworkers? This was going to be so amazing and perfect!

She had helped Cassie with some of the decorations earlier, then left to make sure she was perfect as well. Maybe she had gone shopping for a new outfit, but what better excuse? She felt her Santa hat slipping a bit, but her hands were full - gift in one, plate of brownies in the other. Adjusting it would have to wait, but she was sure she still looked spectacular and festive anyway.

Headed into the room, Nessa beamed as she saw a few early-birds already there. She had expected to see Cassie of course, to put the finishing touches on the room, but what a delightful surprise to see a couple others anxious to get started! "Hello, Seren!" she grinned with enthusiasm at the Herbology professor as she set her gift bag under the tree. And.. she didn't recognize the other woman.. OH! "You must be Josephina," Nessa remarked to the other woman, happy grin still in place. She did know there had been someone on maternity leave. "Congratulations!" She had a baby, right?

"Everything looks perf!" she beamed at Cassie as she set the plate of brownies down on the table. "A student left these for me in my office.. wasn't that just so sweet and thoughtful?" Nessa certainly thought so, but she hadn't had a chance to try any. She thought taking them here would be a great idea.. besides, she couldn't bake so she'd otherwise come empty-handed. Or get something at the store. And what a lovely song was playing. She hummed along to Carol of the Bells as it played.
