| Puff by day, snake by night | Mj's bestie | Always UP to Something... SPOILER!!: Sabel
Despite how curious he was for the 'Deputy's' answers, Sabel's attention was drawn back to the Headmistress, and the woman beside him. He made a mental note that perhaps a more private discussion was needed with the Hogwarts Head and returned a smile and a nod her way. The second note was to the woman sitting beside him, the one with hair as bright as her personality. It was a quick decision to make. He liked her so far. Friendly and cheery.
"Cassie then." He nodded with a warm smile of his own that was tinged with only a faint hint of surprise. So, she knew what his previous job was, as did the man beside him. He supposed it made sense, even though it made him shift somewhat uncomfortably in his chair. Secrets around his job had become so normal, he'd forgotten what it was like to be in a place with such open conversation.
"I am, or was. For just over a decade." He felt old. A glance down the table to the end Professor with the cane reminded him to stifle any such sentiments. "As for why I'm here...I've always enjoyed teaching and there are better prospects on the whole here, than at the Ministry." For life, safety, family. Just all around, better. Plus, teaching kids sure beat running after dangerous, dark criminals. Maybe?
His eyes slipped to the students as they began filing in, the knots of nerves returning. Or maybe the former was easier? Time would certainly tell.
She smiled sweetly at him as he said her name. Yes he was quite interesting. “You have probably seen so many things. Goodness I could never do that job.” She wasn’t mean enough and she knew it. She wasn’t mean at all really. She’d probably give them snaps and try to work things out with tea instead of jail, so best she stayed in her tower. “Well welcome, Hogwarts is privileged to have you.” She gave a few happy snaps. “Always good to have a busy summer. At least if it was fun busy.” She smiled brightly at Sophia, she always enjoyed her style and knowing she was Leo’s friend Cassie wanted to be friends too. Turning her eyes on Cosgrach she laughed, “I bet she will just adore you.” The students certainly did and his stepson even though he seemed a bit rough around the edges certainly adored him, so she was positive the baby would too. “I would love to see pictures if you have any.”
Hearing that Meredith had a wonderful summer was great and she gave her happy snaps. “Oh I had loads of fun, I worked with my grandmother at her shop and went to Paris for two weeks.” She glanced at Leo all smiled at the Paris thought where they had a fabulous time. “ I always do a ton of shopping with Nessa as well. Do you like shopping?” They could always use more shopping friends.
Her smile hearing Leo say he had the best summer. She was very happy that she could help with that. Her grin stayed as he spoke about the library, “Of course, I can help with the restricted section. I’ll pop over whenever you think you’ll be in.” She always enjoyed helping him, plus it was nice to talk and enjoy each other’s company.
She giggled at Nessa, “Listening to you is always best.” Snaps were happening while talking about the office, it just looked way too amazing not to have snaps. “Oh this” her smile faltered just a bit, “Thank you, wasn’t feeling the brightness of colors.” She jumped to the next subject quickly, “This weekend will be Perf, I will be helping you of course!” Her eyes moving when she saw Nessa glance away she smiled, “Good evening Cece, hope you had a wonderful summer and hello welcome.” Goodness another cutie (Groundskeeper) , not the she was looking.
Excusing herself back to her own side of the table she picked up her goblet of water before turning to her own end of the table. She stayed a bit out of her chair in case talking was still going on between Sabel and Annie, but looked to Maddox and Airey with interest. “Hello, what do we have here?” What was he doing with the rocks? Her eyes moved to Javy, Bortos, and Tiara, “Hello, welcome back! Have you all had a nice summer? Curtis doing alright Javy?” Yes she wanted more pictures of the nephew!
