Léopold gave him a slight smile. "Oui. I am a first year creatures student." And at how excited he was about this, he might just switch to dragonology full time.
Tiberius smiled. "That's probably it," he said with a nod. "I won't be on campus this fall, but should be back in the spring. Perhaps I'll see you around."

But now they were getting instructions, so with quick nod of the head, Tiberius moved over toward the group that would work with Bunny.

SPOILER!!: Williamson

WAY up. WAY, WAY up. He hardly even recognized her!

"Hey Harmony, Tanc," Willy nodded to his superiors, and to the bank people coming in now. Looked like everyone involved in this project had arrived. Now, to get started... he rubbed his hands together and listened to Lucia and then Harmony give little introductions. Then it was his turn. He motioned his students over with a wave, not that he was going to know most of them by name anyway, and led the way a little closer to Bunny.

Dear, darling ol' Bunny.

"Alright guys, so I don't know you all by name --- yet --- and you might not know each other. So let's start with a few introductions and reminders. I'm William Williamson, but you can just call me Will or Willy or William, whichever catches your fancy. I've worked with dragons since I was YOUR age, mostly in Romania, and I also taught them at Hogwarts." Mordred got a grin there since he was the only kid in Willy's group who would know that. Presumably.

And now for the reminders... "Please don't make any sudden movements or loud noises around the dragon. Avoid the head area and anything spiky or pointy," he pointed toward Bunny's head with her infamous Chinese Fireball face spikes, "And always keep your dragonhide gloves on. If you haven't put them on yet, do so now. Okay. So, first step... after you say who you are... tell me, who here knows how to apply a harness to a dragon?! Anddd why does Bunny need a harness anyway?"


Tiberius pulled his gloves from his back pocket and slipped them on quickly. He watched particularly carefully how the man offered direction and instruction. Tiberius had been told he'd be expected to teach a section when he returned to Cairo, and so he was making mental notes about teaching style in addition to anything that would help him survive his fieldwork. So the man had taught at Hogwarts... interesting. It had clearly been after he'd left.

So far, the instructions had seemed similar to those Tiberius had observed with most creatures of a more dangerous persuasion. Quiet. Slow.

"Tiberius Pryce," he offered by way of introduction. "Advanced studies at Cairo, though first time with dragons" he added, providing some context to why someone his age was at what was clearly an introductory seminar.

But when it came to the question, Tiberius kept silent. It was more important for the others to interact. He would observe.
