 ¼ of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pls
Not hearing anything from anyone was good in a way, wasn't it? Meant she didn't have to be reminded of Rebecca too much. Though, he did frown deeply when Jon was mentioned. How was he the one who accused them? Cosgrach help her hand instinctively - a sign that he was there for them. "She will be punished, I'm sure," he said, "and Jon... will realise what kind of a family he lost." He didn't really want to speak ill of her first husband and Bart's dad, even though he was grateful for the man's mistakes as they turned into HIS blessing. Going to a game, though? "I'd love to," he said and grinned. He had missed that boy - he bet the whole family did.
He chuckled. Sure, what else would a manager want? "I hope they do," he said, and looked thoughtful only a fraction of a second when she asked about school. Now was the time, then. To talk about it. The university did want an answer, after all.
"Surprisingly, yes. No one is plotting against us so far." Which was quite a success at Hogwarts, actually. "There's something I need to talk to you about, though. About my future there." He shifted in his seat to fully turn to her. "Y'see, a professor there will retire at the end of this academic year and a friend, who is also a professor there suggested me for the job. They apparently said yes - well, it's informal still, because I haven't gone to an interview yet, but..." He could get it. Most likely. He looked into her eyes to gauge her reaction. What did she say?
