Gaston was slightly taken aback when the Head Girl said she hoped she hadn't disturbed him. What kind of professor would he be if he didn't make time for his students? "Not at all, Miss Franks-Mundie," he said, smiling as he closed the door behind her. "Congratulations on getting Head Girl, by the way." He couldn't believe he hadn't told her sooner! He meant to tell her at the start-of-term feast, but the poltergeists showed up and distracted him before he had the chance.

He motioned toward the leather chairs in front of his desk, inviting the girl to sit down. As he took his own seat in the bigger chair behind the desk, he gently scooted the glass candy dish across the desk closer to his student. "Would you like some chocolate?" he offered. His bright blue eyes momentarily darted to the black and white cat perched atop the cat condo behind him, wondering how Phantom would react to Miss Franks-Mundie. The little fluffball just looked at the girl for a minute, then turned over and went back to sleep.

Gaston couldn't help but notice Miss Franks-Mundie's smile as she asked him about his summer, and he smiled along with her. "I did, thank you for asking" he replied. Was this what she wanted to talk to him about or was she just making small talk? Either way it didn't matter; he would always make time for his students. "I went back to France, reunited with some old friends, spent some time in Diagon Alley..." Though he didn't say that time in Diagon Alley was spent recording an album. Wait, was this too much information? Miss Franks-Mundie had only asked him how his summer was, not what he did. "So how was your summer?" he asked.

Gaston smiled as Mr. Finch answered his question. "Yes, that's the best way to spend a summer break, isn't it?" he said; his own summer had been spent in a similar way. Speaking of which... "My summer was wonderful, thank you for asking," he replied. He was glad to see that the boy seemed to feel a bit more at ease around him. "It was nice to go home for a bit and sped time with my friends and family." He wasn't rambling again, was he?

The professor was amused by his student's reaction to his office, but he tried not to let on. He wouldn't want Mr. Finch to think he was laughing at him! Was his office really that interesting? "Thank you, Mr. Finch," he said when the Slytherin complimented his office. He didn't think it was all that special - it was just a mash-up of random things that interested him - but it was awfully kind of Mr. Finch to say so!

"Please, sit down," Gaston said, gesturing toward the black leather chairs as he took his place behind the desk. The black and white cat who had been snoozing on the cat condo suddenly jumped down, and the professor's eyes followed her as she sidled over to Mr. Finch and rubbed against his leg with a friendly meow. Gaston was shocked; normally Phantom was a bit... cantankerous toward the students, or really with anyone she felt was taking up too much of his time. He laughed. "Well, it looks like you've made a new friend!"

The professor was silent for a moment. Should he bring up the reason for Mr. Finch's visit or wait for him to broach the subject himself?

"I hope I wasn't disturbing you Professor." Honestly since it wasn't school related it possibly could wait if he was busy, but she was hoping he wasn't. Her eyes scanned his office. Was there anything from the band laying around? That would be so cool. Seriously though she had a professor that was in a band. How did she not know that last term? "So Professor did you have a good summer? Do anything fun and interesting?" Her smile might have shown that she was excited to have him answer those questions and possibly ask her about her own. Though her hand held tight to that little object she was dying to show him. Did other's know about this? If they didn't they should. Maybe they could play for the school? Oh that really could be fun.

He smiled at the man and stood up, trying his best not to be so nervous. Professor Marchand had always been nice to the students, so really there was no reason to be feeling this way...and yet... "My summer was, uh, it was pretty good." Oliver nodded and moved his weight from one foot to another. "I got to spend a lot of time with my friends." He was actually kind of upset summer was over because it meant moving forward with his life, but there wasn't much he could do about it now, was there? "How was your summer, Professor?" Oliver knew small talk was kind of hated by most people, but he was finding that it helped his nerves quite a bit, and he really appreciated the professor for it. Oh. He could go into the office now, okay. "Thank you." Ollie walked past the professor and into the office, looking around at the room curiously. He never actually thought he'd end up in this office, but now that he was, he was finding it to look a little something like what he'd want his own office to look like one day, though maybe without the picture of Gaston on the wall. "I really like your office, sir." Sir sounded weird. Was calling him sir normal? Or was it just professor???? He had never called Professor Newton ma'am, had he????? Meeting professors was hard.
