Bunz's Waiting Area

[BanaBatGirl]

As you approach Professor Bunbury's Office, you notice a little square of parchment abruptly ripped out of some sort of publication and permanently stuck to the wall by her door.



If that doesn't scare you off and should you still wish to speak to the Herbology professor outside of class, her office is one logical place to find her. But since the tragic flooding, near-loss of her precious shoe closet and dramatic catnapping of her pet last term, Bunbury has become more cautious of who she allows into her personal space.

Knock on the door to Bunz's office, announce your presence and reason for coming, and she'll decide if she wishes to speak you and when. There's a bright pink loveseat - large enough to seat three - for you to sit and wait patiently.

Oh, and do check your appearance for any mud/wrinkles/filth/etc. in the odd, gold mirror opposite the door before entering. You know how the Bunzinator is about filthy little children like yourself.



OOC NOTE: Before posting in the office, you must post here and be told to enter, otherwise your post will be deleted. This should keep the RP moving faster and make it easier for me to manage the office.

Levitating some of the mooncalf dung that herself, Copernicus, Livvy and a bunch of first year Ravenclaws had helped collect after Cam and Willie went crazy and ruined the feast, Celandine stopped outside of Professor Bunbury's office and looked back at Cope with a bright smile. At least they had destinkified the bags of poop, and they didn't have to... touch any of it.

At least someone could get some use out of it right?

[Cassirin]

Copernicus fell into step with Celandine as they reached the door to Bunbury's office. He gave her a grin, touching her wrist gently before he knocked on the office door.

And now they had to... hm...

"Copernicus Kettleburn and Celandine Toussaint. We come bearing gifts," he told the door.

[Felixir]

Okay. This was GOING to work... right? Yes? Bunz would HAVE to let him into her office... all Jake wanted to do was visit Gingersnapple... and maybe protest his innocence some more. Hopefully his new state of dress would help.

See, Jake now, with his oversized clothes, seemed as though he was draped with cloth and such like. He wore an unzipped, oversized black hoodie with the hood up, under which was a black beanie cap, that covered his pink hair. Without that giveaway, hopefully Bunz wouldn't recognise him?

Pausing for a moment, Jake had his fist poised in front of the door, before going for it and rapping his knuckles on the wood a total of five times, before directing his gaze downwards and waiting for admittance... or banishment.

Glancing round at the two Ravenclaws present, Jake figured he should have brought a gift for Bunbury as well as the back of chicken pieces for Gingersnapple. Ah well... what's done is done.

[BanaBatGirl]

The click-clacking sound of a pair of pointy basilisk-skin pumps preceding her presence, Professor Bunbury arrived outside her office only to find three students presumably there to speak with her.

Presumably. Two of the students were Ravenclaws, allegedly bearing 'gifts' and the other one was breaking the dress code. Hmm.

"Mr. Kettleburn and Miss Toussiant. What sort of gift brings you to my door?" the redhead called out by way of greeting, marching past the group to pause with her hand on the doorknob to the office. "And you there, in black. Remove your hood and explain why you're breaking dress code or that will be five points from your House."

Yes, Bunz was down to bizness already.

Ack... grrrrrr.

Was everyone intent on taking points from his today? Tugging the hood off his head, Jake made sure the hat firmly covered his pink hair as he smoke in a quiet voice, so maybe Bunz wouldn't recognise him.

"Sorry... s'cold," the boy said, keeping his face pointed down.

"Hello Professor Bunbury!" Celandine could barely contain her excitement at seeing the Herbology Professor and, when she lifted her hand to brush a strand of her hair, the little pink lady charm could be seen hanging off the pink leather bracelet that she wore on her wrist (right along side a little golden scarab charm).

"Well, you know how at the feast, Cameron Karsten and Willie Crocker made a total mess and stuff? We collected the dung that landed all over the Ravenclaw table because we thought, even if the feast was ruined, at least some good could come of it, since Mooncalf dung is good for plants and all."

Celandine paused and wrinkled her nose, eyeing the levitated bags of dung. "I destinkified them with the neat charm Professor Shackleton taught us a few terms ago too."

Miiiight be wearing off though.. Mmmhmmm.

[WhittyBitty]

Making sure that his appearance was in order, Torin headed towards Professor Bunbury's office and saw that she was outside the door with a few other students. He needed to tell her why he was there but figured that it might be best if he waited for the others to finish talking to her first so as not to be rude.

One student at a time. Ah. Of course the shifty child in black was the Catnapper. Anastasia would know the voice of that spoiled brat anywhere, pink hair or no.

"Mhmm, really. It's a warm September evening and yet you're cold. Could your ruthless catnapping heart be affecting the hypothalamus of your brain now, Upstead?"

Bunbury crossed her arms in front of the boy and stared him down. "Why are you here, dressed like a burglar? Or is that just daily attire for a cat-snatching thief?"

Rather cross now at the sight of the boy, Bunz turned her blue stare on Celandine. "Ah yes. That unfortunate feast." She sighed and raised an eyebrow at the bags of moondung.

"How thoughtful of you.... yes, that is an excellent fertilizer. Would it be too much if I asked you to deposit it around the puffapods and flutterbies in the student gardens? If you don't have the time now you could always... er, move it to the shed and I'll deal with it later...." with gloves on.

Or maybe Bunbury would dare Torin Kane to do another task for her, like spreading mooncalf dung. HEH. She cocked her head slightly to the side and blinked at the Hufflepuff who was just.... hovering outside her office door.

Or was he stalking???!

He noticed her looking at him like that and figured that it was best if he said something to her now before she got the wrong idea. "I came here because you didn't eat the Baked Alaska I made you Professor. Even if you weren't serious about the dare I was. And as a part of it you were supposed to eat the dessert." He hoped that he wasn't sounding rude to her. He didn't mean to. He just was stating the facts to her. "I need to make you another dessert to try. It's only fair."

He waited for her to reply.

Dangit. She knew it was him.

Pulling the hat from his head, Jake looked up at the woman, a dumbfounded expression on his face as she went on with long words. "Whazzatmean?" he asked, looking at Bubunz as if she was insane in the general way you look at insane teachers. "I'm cold," the boy repeated, hugging his own body and glancing towards the door. "And I got some chicken for Gingersnapple. Can I come in?"

...

GRRRR! She was still going on about that.

"I did not steal that cat!"

"Sure professor, I wanted to say hi to them anyway." Celandine answered cheerfully. She caught hold of Cope's hand with her free hand and then laughed a bit, "You don't mind if we... do it with magic right? We'll be thorough though."

Copernicus nodded in agreement and tugged Celandine close enough so that he could grab hold of the bags of dung she was levitating. "We're happy to help right now, Professor. I hope you enjoyed your summer."

And he somehow managed to say it without an iota of irony.

"Ready, Sunshine?"

"Ready, Sunshine?"

"Ready." Cela agreed, quite keen on going outside right then and there. She offered a little wave for Bunbunz and brief smiles for the other students before tugging on Cope and heading in the direction of the student garden.

Shock!!11!! Torin Kane had a purpose other than general lurking and stalkery. And he knew about Lawson devouring the dessert. Snap.

"All right, Mr. Kane, I will speak to you in my office. You may go in... just... we'll talk in a minute." She was just a little thrown off by the boy and opened the door so he could in and take a seat.

Upstead. Was. A. Squib. He just proved it with that general vapid, cow-like stare of his. UGH. "No you may NOT come in." Anastasia quickly whipped the door shut without waiting to see if Torin had made it in or not. "Absolutely no admittance to my office for YOU or any of your vile Catnapping friends! NEVER!"

Trying not to snap at the Ravenclaws, Bunbury sort of tried to offer Cela a rare smile. "Uh, well. The plants prefer close contact and I find that the manure is spread more evenly by hand - with gloves on of course - but it's really up to you." She wouldn't turn down free mooncalf dung either way.

"Ready, Sunshine?"

"Uh...huh, and I'm sure you enjoyed yours, Kettleburn," Bunz mumbled in return. That was all that needed to be said and they were gone now anyway.

Jumping as Bunz went and just CLOSED the door, without giving Jake a single reason as to why he shouldn't be allowed in, Jake frowned at the woman. "Okay... well... is there a reason for that?" Slow!Jake asked, blinking up at the woman. "Also, I was the only one that st- I DIDN'T STEAL HIM!"

Guhhh!

Taking a breath, Jake fished around in his pocket for the sammich bag he had put some chicken in. "Can you at least give this to Gingersnapple?"

"I don't need a reason to decide who I allow in and who I allow out of my office," Bunbury answered in a huff. "Proven CATNAPPERS and vandals like yourself shall not be allowed in."

Duh. She wrinkled her nose and stared down at the bag of chicken pieces (which were already starting to smell, mind you) Jake offered. "Hmm. NO. The cat does not need any more treats -- and I can't trust you, obviously, so I wouldn't feed him anything from you anyway."

And that was final. Bunbury took a step closer to her door and waited for Jake to leave. He was DISMISSSSED.

"Not a vandal," Jake muttered, lowering the bag of chicken and shoving it back in his pocket. "Fine."

Fine. FIIIIIIINE! It was all juuuuuust fine.

Jake narrowed his eyes and turned, after mumbling a solemn promise that he would return, shoved his hands into his pockets and stalked alway, discreetly (he hoped) taking his anger out on a nearby plant as he went.

Now... where could he find a tent?

"Yes you are," Bunz answered childishly, still blocking the entrance to her door. She stared Jake down intently until he made up his mind to leave - not before muttering something incoherent - and watched him go.

Good riddance! She could have some peace in her office. With Torin. Erm. Yeah.

[RachieRu]

So. Brody had kind of midsplaced her boyfriend. She was pretty sure that she had been with him only half an hour ago, so where on earth had he gotten to!
She had an inkling that she knew where he was, seeing as he loved Professor Bunbury so much. So the blonde had made her way toward Brody was about to knock on the door, until the noticed a mirrior. Ooooh. A mirror.

Being the total vain girl that she was, Brody stood infront of the mirror, and made sure her hair was looking fine. Well that was what it was fun right?


Brody may come in now.

[Lezleighd]

As soon as she could, Satine hurried down towards the gardens to see Professor Bunbury. After last year's excitement with the flooding and being stuck in a room with the professor, Satine had decided that this was the professor that she could relate to the most...I mean she liked bright colors and she was a fashion diva. She had brought the Professor some amazing new shoes and sat down on the sofa outside of her office with the shoes in a pink box in her lap. She had guessed on the size and hoped the guess was right.

As she waited she smoothed out her robes and checked to make sure that she was more than presentable in the mirror.

[highjinx]

GUUHHH FUHHHH.

Cam's snout was very sensitive you see, and while he may smell food and the female population's hair even better, it suffocated him at the moment. Carrying threeeee buckets filled with that mooncalf poo (the last one was only 1/2 filled 'cause he used the other 1/2 for well... STUFF mmkays??!) He couldn't put a hand to his snout, nope because he was already packed with the carrying of theeee buckets.

All this little boy wanted to do was give it to Bunbury and RUN AWAY. RUN AWAY LIKE THE FERAL CHILD HE WASSSS. And would he ever ask Kazi to reverse this spell? NUH UH. Because Kazi was a meanie-bo-beanie-who-wore-a-bikini-and-looked-like-a-genie. True fact, yo.

He started coughing, and sweating, and looked bloody scary mixed with that pig snouuut of his. Cam immediately started knocking on the door--not knocked, BAAANGGEDDD as if... as if a child was calling for help from the smell he was currently facing. Even the smell of raw nature turned its back on him this time.

OPEN UP THE DOOR, WOMAN. OPENUPPOPENUPPPP!!11111 But oh lookit, pretty sign. Top 10 ways to get on Bunzz's nerves? AWESOME. He should have a laminated copy of that. Snicker.

"PRAW-FES-SAH Ba-BUN-BU-REEEE," he called out from the outside. Professah Baboonbury could have been her new nickname. Mwahaha. YO, OPEN UP!

[BanaBatGirl]

"Satine Ferris.... and.... CAMERON KARSTEN QUIT THAT INFERNAL NOSIEMAKING," came the clearly irritated voice of Bunz as she stepped out of her office. The door behind her hadn't even had a chance to close before the redheaded woman was looming over the Slytherin boy with THREE buckets of dung.

Why why why why why WHY was it always her office?!?

[highjinx]

1 second had passed. WHY DIDN'T SHE OPEN THE DANG DOOR??? Cam, just about to use his Bruce Lee -HIYAHHH- moves on the door and try to bust it open like those cool cop doods do, that red-headed woman finally opened it. He was always curious of Professor Bunbury... so curious. MAYBE SHE WAS A BLONDE! And that red of hers was just blood. BLOOOOD.

TMI though so Cam just stared for a minute, still looking horrible and... a bit dashing with that snout of his. Was it just his snout or did the professor smell nicer than usual?

Probably tried to smell nicer to attract men, and then EAT 'EM ALIIIIIVEEEEEE.

And he sniffed again, only getting that raw smell of mooncalf poop. GUH FUHHHH. "S'for the," COUGH, "the--the plants, prof--" SPLUTTER, "plaaaantssss. POOP TO YER PLANTSSS." And theeeen came the wheeze.

Smell was... too... too... Cam oh so dramatically fell on his knees, in front of the professor and continued to cough SPLUTTER and WHEEEZEEEE on the professor's shoes and whatever else was in front of him. "Can yeh--can yeh," he coughed real big on her shoes again, "CANYEHDESTINKIFY'EM???"

Snout. SENSIIIITIIIIVVEEE!!!1111

[Lezleighd]

Satine immediately stood up as she heard her name and put on her usual smile to see the Professor dressed to the T as usual. She glanced over her shoulder at the other student with a face of disgust. How rude could you be. She let her disgust show as she turned back to the Professor. As she listened to the other student, she made sure to move as far away from him as possible and cover her present so that it didn't start reeking as he had. Did he not know how to bath as well as have no manners.

He waited for him to finish and then she announced the Professor from well behind the stinky boy....

"Well, Professor, my parents took us to New York this summer and I saw a pair of shoes that made me think of you. I had to guess on the size, but I hope they will work." she said holding up the bright pink shoe box that was wrapped with a pink bow that had black spots on it. "I just wanted to come down here before anywhere else to give these to you so maybe your term would start off with a bang......" she let her words trail off as she waited to see what the Professor would say or do next.
