It was when he was out taking a stroll along the lake that he saw Isa running her little heart out. He waited until she was passing closer by to him and smiled and waved. "Hello, Isa, m'dear! How are you this wonderful morning?" he said in a loud, clear voice. There were a few others running around on this slightly bright morning. The sun was peeking out fairly shyly, saying HELLLLOOooOOoo in its pretty way. His white hair almost looked yellow in the glow.

...he had forgotten his morning tea. Oops.
A small figure grew into a close up familiar face as Isa ran by. It was professor Myers! Isa slowed her pace to speak to Professor Myers, eventually coming to a stop. ”Good morning, Professor Myers! I’m doing well. Trying to stay in shape for quidditch. How are you?” On this fine morning the fifth year Hufflepuff captain was also stressing about OWLs already, but that was not the sort of thing one should discuss so early in the morning so early in the term. That topic was better saved for closer to the actual exams and at a time when one could sit and have a cup of tea. She had more important things to focus on right now. ”I’m feeling nervous about quidditch, honestly. That, and there are so many other things like the musical which I’m interested in but I don’t know if I’ll have time for.” There was a lot of pressure on her as captain to play well and to work with her teammates to have the team do well. With her only real quidditch experience coming from summer quidditch camps, Isa had wondered on a few occasions if her receiving the captain badge had been a mistake and at any moment someone was going to come tell her that the badge actually belonged to some other Hufflepuff who was on the U 17 team or something. So far, she had heard only encouragement from her friends, especially Derf, so that had boosted Isa’s confidence. From what she had seen so far as captain, it seemed like quidditch camp experience was enough for her to have decent chaser skills and enough understanding to talk strategy with her team. Derf’s notes were helping a lot too.
