How MARVELOUS! How exciting was this?! Dolly Diane Pilliwickle Hanover Cheshire Doran Dopple had returned to Hogwarts after eighty-one short years! Not much had changed in those 81 years - no, Dolly was quite the same as she had been as a young lady. Very bright and bubbly, quite friendly, just as energetic and almost as enthusiastic about life in general. Five husbands taught her many things over the years - the most important being that they were rather pointless (other than the financial support), and once they all had taken their turns kicking the bucket, Dolly had decided to close the husband book and start a new chapter.
Ninety-nine wasn't too old to start a new chapter. She still had plenty of time. Which is why she had LEAPT at the opportunity to teach at Hogwarts! She had never had children of her own, so maybe she would see what it was like to have a thousand of them. Oh, how delightful!
Shuffling into the Great Hall excitedly, Dolly waved a lanky, wrinkly, saggy arm at the staff table as she approached with excitement. "Oh, helloooooo, friends!" she shouted (as well as her croaky old voice could do) as she shuffled her pink clog shoes across the floor. "OH, Headmaster Treble, isn't this just SO exciting?!" she exclaimed, coming around the back of his chair to ruffle his hair and give him a HOT PINK kiss on the cheek. "Who'd-a thought?! An old maid like me and a young, handsome man like yourself, starting a new job at the same time!" Fancy that!
After giving his shoulders a good pat, Dolly scooted down two seats to sit in her place as the new Charms professor. Well! Wasn't this just so fetch!
