He smirked, equal parts amused, shocked and delighted. She had apparently done her homework before she came into the room, read up on his life... "Just utilizing my other talents to broaden young minds... as well as keeping alert to ensure no wayward healer interns step toe out of line, naturally, Miss... Avalon." He raised an eyebrow at her, wanting her to know that he was on to her little game.
Oh great... The Old One had made the connection between her and her brother... wonderful. She knew Tobi had not been his favourite student, unless you look at it from a perspective of victimization. How unfair that her spotless record was forgotten but her brother's campaign of foolishness hung on, not that she really blamed Tobi for not being able to get into the good graces of a man like... that.

"Oh, thank you sir." Iliana said, pleasantly surprised by his hospitality. Blushing slightly at his compliment, Iliana smiled and quickly took a sip of her drink. Maybe the jeans weren't such a bad idea. She thought, giving herself a little internal pat on the back. Still, she didn't think she'd make a habit of it.

...

Overhearing a bit of the conversation nearby, Iliana turned her head to address Kazimeriz. "Afternoon Professor... Alessia." Before giving them the proper greeting she'd intended, something else caught her attention. What was this? New faces! How lovely. "Good afternoon." She said, extending her hand first to the pretty brunette; then the amused-looking gentleman next to her. "I'm Iliana Morgan, Care of Magical Creatures."
Cari's insistent glare in the direction of Kazimeriz was broken by a pretty caramel blonde. "Hmm? Oh! Pleased to meet you. Caroline Avalon, Intern Healer." She shook her hand absently and took her first sip of her drink. Her eyebrows shot up. A mint julep? hmmmm....

And since the cat's been let out of the bag already: I have decided to step down at Potions Master so that I can more fully focus my energies on being headmaster. Professor Kazimeriz has graciously agreed to take my place and Professor Lawson shall be taking his. We also have a new Gryffindor Head of House: Professor Dumont and Transfiguration Professor: Professor Svensson who are replacing Profeesor Pierce, who I regret to inform you all, has stepped down from her post at Hogwarts."

Hopefully that quelled whatever arguments were about to ensue. Perhaps he should have planned a team building workshop or outing of some sort instead of a meeting. It seemed like everyone had someone else to snipe at. Something to consider... Perhaps he could convince Sophie to... Hmm... maybe not....
Wow. Caroline was strongly reminded of her mother as Headmaster Bontecou subtly intervened in her little spat with Kazimeriz. A slight blush coloured her cheeks, as she had been caught misbehaving. Certainly the man was crusty and rude, but she didn't have to rise to his bait. Or she could try not to anyway. Especially since he seemed to be staying on in a field related to her own. Did it have to be POTIONS? Couldn't have been Astronomy? Arithmancy? Divination? No, that would have been too lucky.

Okay, enough of that. Cari was determined to pay attention. Okay, new staff, Marcus, and herself, and one other, Svensson? Okay... And a new head of Gryffindor, Dumont... Tobi's other favourite Professor, apart from Ethan. Well good things do happen to good people.

The scary redhead and the tired looking blonde, hmmm I wonder if she's quite well? congratulated a nearby man with long hair so Cari took it to mean this Professor Dumont. "Congratulations, Professor," she added quietly.
