SPOILER!!: Cece Quote:

She walked up to the staff table just in time to hear old man Botros tell the new guy where his seat was. "Unless I'm mistaken, which I'm not, your seat is right there. Three seats away from the headmaster," she said as she sat in HER seat. The one that was two seats away from the man who apparently needed a lesson on counting. "Good evening Cece." Leo greeted with a nod and a wave in her direction. "You had a lovely summer vacation I hope?" Said summer vacation hadn't done wonders for her mood which was as deadly and fiery as usual. He overheard how Cece adressed the new herbology professor and then Airey in turn. Hopefully the new plants expert had thick skin, Leo knew that Airey could hold his own against Cece he had done so many times. SPOILER!!: Justin Quote:

He mentioned having one who was- heeeeeeeey. "Hey there Leo.. and Cassie, right? Feeling okay?" She looked like she could use some cheering up. Pouring up his goblet with pumpkin juice Leo had just taken a sip of the cold substance when Justin came up on the dais. Since he wasn't with the first years he assumed that the boat ride had gone without a hitch. Meeting the new groundskeeper's gaze Leo flashed a smile remembering their hair salon encounter earlier in the summer. "Hey Justin. Did you have a quiet boat ride? No students took an early dip in the lake i hope?" SPOILER!!: Cossy Quote:

"Looking nice," he told Airey in case the man was let down with the previous comments, and after greeting everyone briefly (no Annie, Maddox, Javy--the people he felt closest to) he sat down on his usual seat. Turning to the man sitting a seat away from him Leo smiled. "Good evening Cossy. That yellow scarf looks good on you. Makes me wish I had something eagle inspired to wear." He had thought Cossy was going to team with Cece when Sophia left but apparently that honour had gone to Justin. "How is Helena? Did you get to spend a lot of father-daughter time with her during summer?" SPOILER!!: Cassie Quote:
Originally Posted by Bazinga His hand on her shoulder Cassie lifted hers to place over his for only a second. "Why thank you, you look very handsome yourself." After last term she assumed it was pretty obvious for any that weren't sure to be sure they were a couple now. They were still very good about keeping their relationship private no need for anything less. His words sweet she gave him a encouraging smile. "I'm fine, promise." She would be, it wasn't as if she hadn't felt disappointment in her life before. She was a big girl and would get over it like she did other things. She just needed some time. [/color] "All right." Leo said in response to Cassie's reassurance. She'd know where to find him if she needed to talk after the feast and all the students had gone to bed. Hopefully the company of those sitting around her would bring her mood up. He'd see if he couldn't find a copy of that Sibyl Trelawney biography for her that he knew was somewhere in the storage room. SPOILER!!: Sabel Quote:

And moved to his seat, offering nods of acknowledgement to the new herbology and transfiguration professors, Leo, Culloden and the groundskeeper. He received the nod of acknowledgement from Sabel from his seat and returned it with a smile and a wave. To Leo though the man looked awfully ghastly, tired looking and something he couldn't place. It wasn't his business and he wasn't one to pry but he wondered what the man had been doing all summer. It clearly looked like he hadn't gotten his beauty sleep that was for certain though.
SPOILER!!: Ab Quote:
Originally Posted by Magical Soul Botros DID see that shoulder squeeze but sadly didn't hear the whisper because the Healer's voice was too loud and distracted him and he already had to have people speak in normal sound waves to hear them properly. Leo and Cassie did seem quite friendly, Botros thought if this was simply tight friendship or something else? "Hey. It was great, thank you." Botros replied with a warm smile. [/indent] Turning his gaze to Ab he said with a warm smile. "You're welcome. And if I might say so you look like you belong in that headmaster chair." Leo kept his next thought to himself but seeing Ab there in what used to be Annie's chair made him think that he looked comfortable almost at home in that position already. Maybe it had always been destined for Botros to take over the school reigns from Annie? SPOILER!!: Meredith Quote:
Originally Posted by TakemetotheBurrow Taking up her seat, her attention then moved to Culloden, her new partner in crime. "Loving the scarf. Yellow suits you, Cosgrach! Now I've been thinking about it and if we ever need to play good-auror, bad-auror with the kiddos, I'll take bad-auror. We both know I'm the scarier of the two of us and I've been working a lot on my stern face." A face which she went on to demonstrate. All squinty-eyed and stony, the muggle studies professor staaaared down the potions professor before her features relaxed and her usual grin returned. "So, how was it?" Terrifying, yes?
WHOA! Somebody get Moxley some sunglasses because Rocketman's getup was doing some serious damage to her retinas right now. "On the wrong end of a glitter explosion, Airey?" She snorted and then picked up the gift he'd set down, unwrapping it hastily as if she was a kid on Christmas. Her smile was immediate, holding the mug up to her face and posing as if the same kid on Christmas was getting her picture taken with her favorite gift. "It's brilliant, thank you! I'll always be a lion!" And she roared at him. A big, hearty roar.
...."Wait, what the heck sound do badgers even make, anyway?"
As for the other staffers present, the Moxinator looked from one end of the table to the other offering waves and winks and smiles. "Hello, welcome, nice to see you all!" It was going to be an amazing term, she could just feel it Leo was quietly sipping on the pumpkin juice in his goblet when Meredith made her presence known on the dais. He bided his time as she roared over Airey's gift and chatted with Cossy about Hufflepuff things. When she turned in his direction eventually Leo smiled "Evening Meredith, congrats again to your Head of house appointment were in the same club now! The badgers I'm sure will be excited to have you in charge."
"Did you have a good summer vacation?" Leo wondered as he lifted his goblet up to his lips to take another sip of juice. He didn't know what sound badgers made so he wasn't going to try sounding like one.
