"I wish you all the best!"
As he turned away, he noticed Mr. Kennedy and gave the other Ravenclaw grad a friendly wave as he passed. No, he hadn't forgotten about him! He'd already given him his present a bit earlier. Gaston sighed quietly, pinching at the inner corners of his eyes. Saying goodbye to students never failed to make him emotional! One would think it would get easier with time, but this was the one part of his job that was just as hard now as it had been when he started teaching.
Janelle saw Professor Marchand appear to be heading for the Ravenclaw table. She was quite surprised when he came over to her. That was nothing compared to her surprise when he was found to be bearing gifts.
"Wow Professor", Janelle said, as she accepted the card and chocolate frog.
"That was so sweet of you. Thank you very much. And thank you for everything thing you taught me. I'll try to make all of my professors proud." Janelle was touched by the professor's kind gesture. She
was determined to do great things and make everyone proud of her.
SPOILER!!: Kitty

I don't know exactly what my summer plans are," she admitted, shrugging slightly. "Aside from visiting Rooney, I mean. That'll be nice. Maybe mom'll want to take us on vacation again." And she just knew how mad her mom would be when she found out all the details of what happened at Hogwarts this term. *shudder* A thought occurred to her. "Maybe we could um...write to each other sometimes. Just occasionally," she added hastily, wondering if maybe it was awkward to extend this offer when they didn't know each other very well.
She hugged Leon back, remembering all the good memories they had together. One memory especially that popped up was when she'd been scared to go into the forbidden forest, and he'd come up and made her feel better. Ironically, it was that visit to the forbidden forest that was one of her few happy big memories of this term. "That's great that you'll applying for YATI," she said emotionally as she released him. "And I'll definitely write to you. And I'll remember you next time we go into the forbidden forest for class," she said with a genuine smile.
"That sounds fun," she told Rooney as he said he was going to camp. "What sort of camp is it?" The only kind of camp she knew of were Muggle camps, so she wondered if he was going to a wizard equivalent. Then he made the offer for her to come visit him, and her face lit up. "Oh Rooney, I'd love to visit you!" She beamed happily, forgetting the moment at least her troubles associated with the portal and monster.
Janelle listened, as the younger Ravenclaw described her summer plans.
"That sounds nice. I liiiive for vacations. I don't even have to do anything special. Sometimes it's just nice to have a break.". Then, Kitty seemed to hesitate a bit. Janelle smiled when she heard her request.
"Of course we can write to each other. Consider yourself my new pen pal. You can let me know how you're doing and what's going on at Hogwarts. Annnd it will be nice for me to have someone to talk to about the crazy things in my life. I'm looking forward to it already.". Maybe it wasn't too late become better friends after all.
