| The REAL Sorting Hat: "Ravenclaw!" This monkey is bananas. Quote:

As the Ravenclaw suddenly became shifty and mysterious, Madame Kohan watched curiously just as Ariana opened the bag just a bit. Even over the sounds of the chattering students and professors, Angela could hear the small sound. The kittens! She had nearly forgotten about them!
Now straightening up, she leaned forward slightly. "What colors do you have? Happen to have a black with white paws?" She asked eagerly.
And just as suddenly as her happy mood had come on, it disappeared. She was all smiles at the beginning of the Headmistress's speech, knowing that the students should be proud for their accomplishments.
But once she pulled out the letter and began to read, Angela sank back into her chair, unable to keep the expression of shock and disbelief off of her face. The Headmistress was leaving? And Lainey? Her head spun momentarily with confusion and utter sadness. Of course, they were needed elsewhere, but...what would Hogwarts be like without their familiar faces present day after day?
Glancing towards Alex and a few other professors, Angela smiled slightly as she noticed Constantine's gestures. Though for the moment, she did nothing either, as most of the staff was, like her, frozen with shock. And she had a feeling that Cassandra would not want everyone rushing over to her at one time. She couldn't help but chuckle dryly as she heard Kohan ask if she had a black with white paws. at that exact moment a kitten popped its head out, face covered in black fur with its tongue sticking out. She giggled and nodded as she saw the white paws. "I guess I do." she replied, carefully taking the young thing out of the bag and holding it gently towards her.
Turning to look once more over at the headmistress, who was still crying softly, she felt a pang in her chest as she watched this strong woman break down. She knew she loved this school, much more than Ari herself, and knew that it must have been extremely important to leave.
But why Lainey? History of Magic would never be the same without the womans' weird theories and hilarious lessons. Ari hoped she'd be able to see her again soon, though it'll be awhile if that letter was any indication. It was then she noticed the tear on her cheek. Grumbling she wiped it, hoping no one else had notcied, though she knew someone would. Sighing, she looked away from the sadness and took light of the situation. New things were beginning.
