Good to know they were on the same page. Piers chuckled at Andy's question. Yeah, what didn't he know about him these days? Perhaps the last he heard from Piers was a wedding invitation over a decade ago. He was obviously not married anymore. Well, maybe not obviously. He DID have a ring on his left hand again now, but that wasn't from his relationship with Alex.

"Trim away," he said, just fine with his idea. Then he stuffed his hands in his pockets and figured out where to begin. "Well, I've been teaching here for a few years now. Don't know if you remember Javy from our school days. He was my best mate then. Still is. We're actually engaged now. You know, to be married." You know. Side note. Hence the ring. So NOW obviously, he wasn't still married to Alex.

Piers watched the spikes get trimmed as Andy spoke. He thought it was weird? Eh, he could see why. Sort of. "I did some tutoring too," he said. "The only difference is you get to assign them homework, he added with a laugh. No, but there was more to it, so he got what Andy meant. "What makes it weird?" Being in charge of a whole class? He'd get used to it. And if he was anything like Piers he'd get over it real fast.
Andrew's attention was on Peris as he spoke while the herbologist still tended to the bushes. This was a kind of plant that wasn't really dangerous and he could easily multitask. Merlin knew how many times he had trimmed spiky bushes. So no harm there.

His eyes cut to his friend's left hand noting the ring. He wasn't the man to look at other people's finger rings without a reason! But now that he thought of it, he probably didn't notice or think such a big deal of it because he knew Peirs was married. Was. That one apparently didn't work out, so yeah no need to ask about it. "His face did look familiar at the feast," He nodded. He probably didn't recall details or have specific details about Javy but a part of him knew he wasn't a total stranger. The engagement announcement proved that. The man must be decent t Peirs's significant other. "This is great news, congratulations," Andrew said pausing on the trimming and clapping a hand on the other man's shoulder. That was him being happy for his friend. He just ignored his plant, so there!

Back to the plants. Trim..Trim..Trim

Oh, the charms man did some tutoring, too? That was new information. Seemed like this catch-up was indeed needed. "I like that part," He half smirked referring to the homework part. It was new, the idea of telling a large number of people to do something or write an essay. He was going to be creative.... or absolutely boring, who knew. "I guess, it's the dozens pair of eyes looking at me," Not that he had trouble talking in public to crowds. He wasn't two. "And each one has different skills, capability to understand..." He was not looking forwards to the slow student but he knew he'd have to deal with everything. "Guess, it's nice for a change, though," It had become dull recently, tutoring that is. "Especially that Hogwarts seems to have kept its shifty reputation," he chuckled glancing at his friend. A semester was never dull at this school.
