Swinging the door open, the professor peeked his head out to see Mr. Tempus and Mr. Zeke waiting.
"Good day."
And that was all.
Oh. Oh boy. Airey did not look... uh... well.
Toby took half a step forward when the Astronomer came into view, and tried not to look TOO anxious/concerned/anything like that. In fact, he was going to act as natural as he could for now. Yup.

"I, uh... I saw your posters and I-..." No, it was no use, the Hufflepuffness was strong within him today, and he took another step forward.
