Everything that you remember about Professor Bunbury's office? Forget about it. All the pink has been banished; the walls have turned to a pale blue, possibly in recognition of the professor's former house, possibly because blue just so happens to be one of his favourite colours. The floor is bare and wooden, except for the large square throw rug, its colour a soft green, that sits under the desk near the farthest wall.

Shelves line the walls, laden with little trinkets and framed photographs of foreign scenery and a slightly younger, more awkward-looking version of the professor with various nameless persons. Two chairs are situated in front of the desk, silently waiting for guests to occupy them. The chair behind the desk, though comfortable-looking, is nothing like the throne the previous occupant of this office used.

Several plants sit on the desk, and pages of notes written in an almost illegible scrawl have been scattered across the desktop as well. There is a row of chairs just inside the door, in case the professor somehow were to end up with more visitors than expected. A small sign has been attached to the outward-facing surface of the door, a gentle reminder to please knock before entering; the door, however, can be found open at almost all times.

This office is now occupied by one Jacob Cutter, substitute Herbology Professor. And you'll find yourself welcome to visit at (almost) any time.
