I'm sorry I overestimated your dueling abilities. I guess, losing to a student would be torture for you. I'm sure I can dig up a first year for you to thrash." Themea turned and started to walk away. A sudden thought overcame him and he turned around. "Oh wait, my mistake. A first year to thrash you. Forgive me. Good day sir." Themea turned sharply on his heel and continued his walk.

Before the student walked away, Caleum sat up on the edge of his chair and then felt a nudge from one of the professors. "I dare say that 10 points will be taken from Slytherin," he said with a frown on his face. Honestly, who did this kid think he was? That was no way to talk to any staff member no matter whether you were...an intern, Merlin rest her soul, or the Headmistress. "No! No restrictions at all, thank you."

"Better to whoop him in Defense class than to take points away, in my opinion. Doesn't teach him anything otherwise," he added under his breath to Ms. Trelawney who seemed a might bit upset over that taking points away business. "Actually, my last job was an railway engineer with the tube," he continued his conversation at a more normal volume.

"He should probably take the points off," implying the boy wouldn't be able to 'whoop' the student.
Caleum's eyes turned to the intern yet again. She was becoming annoying. Really annoying and well, he could do just the same to her as well, but she really wasn't worth the effort at this point. "What I do is my business and yet I do recall the Headmistress speaking to both of us to play nice, Ms. Intern."

"Lead the way Miss Deschain..." she told the Gryffindor. She didn't know the girl, but she had heard of her.

"Why thank you," Caleum stated nodding his head in the direction of the new potions professor but was also aimed at the little intern as well. He was more than thankful at this point that she was excused from the table and he would excuse her any day. Really. He would.

"Count me in, Max," he stated with a sigh of relief. "I'm ready for something stress free and fun." His eyes looked back to Neo as the man needed to join as well. Nothing like a good card game amongst staff.
