There mere mention brought a biiiiiig, relaxed smile to his face and Cosgrach was so glad that she took the time to visit him and ask about his daughter.

"Thank you, Tiara!" he said, "I hope you enjoyed the candy. And, she's great! Everything's going well according to the Healers. She's born a liiiittle bit early, but the Healers say that's no concern." And honestly, he was glad she was early, because he got to enjoy a few days with her before school.

After talking a sip of his goblet to quench his thirst Leo continued. "How was your summer as a whole?" Everything had probably been overshadowed by the arrival of Cossy’s baby daughter as it should be but he was curious anyway.
Ahhhh, the warm smiles! Cosgrach beamed at his best staff mate back. "I'm glad you liked it," he said, "and thank you." For the good wishes. It was great to see people so excited for his daughter, y'know?

"The summer was hectic," he said and paused for a brief moment as he remembered Jorge and Vic's hectic working days. "Helena decided to come a bit early too, so that was a great way to end the summer." Hehehe. Cute lil kiddo already setting her own rules.

"How was yours?" DID HE SEE CASSIE AT ALL?

Cosgrach laughed along with Cassie. Wasn't she lovely about it? "Thank you, Cassie!" he said cheerfully, "she's doing great, so I think she likes us." Y'know, eating and growing up in general. No, he was not secretly measuring her height in her crib everyday. Also, he bet she was enjoying crying at night, but he wouldn't talk bad about his sunshine.

To say he was looking into his future was a bit generous as the Gryffindor Head of House was not nearly as, er, open about such matters. But he had nearly dropped the parcel that had arrived from the man and his, er, growing family.

The sweeties had been yummy, however.

He offered the man a polite nod and took a hurried sip from not-his water goblet again.
Cosgrach, oblivious to whatever Airey was thinking, just returned the gesture happily. He lifted his own goblet of pumpkin juice and smiled politely.

Why hadn't he done this before?

And the candy had been appreciated, not that she'd had much. Her daughter had gotten her hands on it before she'd had the chance. "How is the little bundle of joy?"
Cosgrach waved back, and got up from his seat to speak to her better. He covered the short distance, and just siiiiiighed.

"She's wonderful," he said with a glint in his eye as his heart was swollen with the feelings again, "she's just... stolen my heart like that!" He laughed briefly. Who could have known that being a parent was magical? Certainly not him! "I can't wait to go back home," he said after a brief pause. Meredith would understand, right? Yes, she would.

After he was done with speaking to people who congratulated him, he started counting those who DIDN'T. WHY? He was almost SURE that they got his owl, because he did write the addresses neatly, so... he was going to try not to feel too disheartened, and just... yeah.

What was going on with Maddox, again?
