Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ Dark Brooding Girl ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll It seemed as if Norman had just blinked, and his tenth term teaching at Hogwarts was already over. Merlin, where did the time go?! This term had, thankfully, been one of his quieter ones, but the quiet was no excuse for complacency. Knowing this school and life in general, anything could happen at any time! As such, he couldn’t even think about the feast until he’d done his usual check of Ravenclaw Tower.
He took his seat at the far end of the dais as usual, neither the first nor the last to arrive as usual. “Good evening, all,” he greeted, nodding politely to each of his colleagues in turn.
Silently pondering the headmaster’s riddle, he glanced down the table until Apollonia’s outfit caught his eye. That color very nearly matched his own deep navy robes, but the only ornamentation he wore was a small golden eagle lapel pin. “Nice robes,” he said with a slight smile. Granted, he was no fashionista by any stretch of the imagination!
