So she had been informed to go see the new Muggle Studies Professor. One whom she knew very well. Or at least had been told she knew very well. Not that she could remember a thing. So the Slytherin walked up to the corridor outside his office and gave it a firm knock. Well two knocks really. Before she waited patiently for his answer. Though she was the first one there so the answer shouldn't come too late now should it?

The Blonde stood back, still not entirely sure for the exact reason she was here but she had been asked and so therefore she would obey now. Plus he was a very good looking professor so she didn't mind having an excuse just to see him again like she had seen him in Diagon Alley that one day.

Weird that meeting was.

O_o

Rubiey wandered into the waiting room of Professor Zookara, and saw that Trixie was already there. She smiled at her, and went to take a seat. "I took your advice; I'm going around to meet all of the Professors in their office." Of course, she would have to wait to meet the Professor, as Trixie was here first. Not that it suprised her; Trixie was the one that pointed Zookara out to her on the staff table. *giggle*

Amy walked up to the door of professor Zookara's office she was soo happy to meet all her professors, she lightly knocked on the door and then waited patiently for the professor to let her in

Brooke wandered into the waiting room along with Rubiey, her new friend. They both took a seat and started to wait for Professor Zookara. Rubiey talked to her friend Trixie.

For her first and second year Professor Dumont had taught Muggle Studies, her third and fourth year were taught by Professor Lawson, and now that he had retired from his post at Hogwarts and moved on to bigger and better things, Katie had to make herself familiar with yet another new Professor that would be teaching her favorite subject this term. And that's exactily what she was going to do.

Walking down the corridor toward the office, the Hufflepuff slowed as she neared, noticing about four other girls from different houses waiting as well. "I suppose someone has already knocked?" She asked, coming to a stop off to the side of a couch.

He had only just returned to his office - yes, HIS office O_o - when he heard the first knock on the door already. Whoa, that girl was quick. Unless, of course it wasn't Trixie. Well, there was only one way to find out, right? Still, something made him hesitate with his hand already on the door handle, about to open the door. This was just too weird.

He wasn't going to make this go away by avoiding it, though. Still, putting this conversation off seemed like a really good ide-

Knock!Knock

Either that somebody - because there was this the slight chance of it not being Trixie - was really impatient or there were more people outside his office. Again, only one way to find out. Taking a deep breath Jeremy finally pushed the door handle downwards and pulled at the door to open it.

Oh. Wow. There was more than one student outside, that was for sure. Which made his trademark grin return to his lips as he took in each of their faces. "Now, who was first?" He asked the group of students...all of them girls, he happened to notice just then.

Trix grinned over at Rubiey as she appeared at the corridor too. She was glad she had taken the Blonde's advice. Then a few more students appeared, he was a popular professor now wasn't he? Don't blame the other girls though. "Yeah i've kno....." she started at one of the girls questions but it didn't matter now anyway.

*Happy Siiiiiiiiiiigh*

He had come to the door and....

Erm snap out of it Trixie. He's your professor now. And he was talking. Better pay attention to him then.

"That would be me" the 16 year old replied immediately. Well it WAS her and it wouldn't be fair if someone just butted in would it? Plus he was expecting her anyway. Well at least she hoped he was still expecting her otherwise it would be kinda awkward right now.

The smile he gave Trixie when she announced that she indeed had been the first to knock wasn't hundred percent genuine. Yes, he was happy to see her again but then again the successive conversation wasn't going to be easy...nor comfortable. So, some part of him had still hoped for one of the other girls to speak up. Oh, well.

"Alright then, follow me into my Office please, Trixie." He gestured towards the open door behind him, motioning for the girl to enter.

Before turning to return to his office, though, he grinned at the other four girls and said, "Sorry, I'll get to you soon. Make yourself comfortable in the meantime. It shouldn't take too long." Hopefully. "Here, have some muffins in the meantime." And with a swift movement of his wand he conjured up a plate full of chocolate chip muffins...all of which had yellow rubber ducks out of sugar on them. These would do for now. And he would be with them soon anyhow.

Hands deep in his pockets, Jake strolled down the first floor corridor, when he thought he might check out the Muggle Studies professor and see who had his daaaaa-... faaaath-... old Muggle Studies teacher's office.

And, you know, say hi.

So, noticing the bloke was already outside, Jake figured he didn't need to knock, but he groaned anyway. GUH! He hated lining uuuup.

Heh. Viktoriya sat herself down on one of the little sofas, assuming that since there were people there someone had already knocked. Oh, the teacher himself was there already. Well, that worked. She was coming round ALL the teacher's offices, except Lafay. That one would be done along with Josh. Because they were gonna give her the squished!cake.

And she had to admit, she did have ulterior motives for coming to see the teachers. If she gave little cakes to all of them, it would hopefully be seen as a friendly student who liked to bake giving away freebies. If she JUST gave on to Lafay, it would look weird, and she miight get suspicious. So she'd gone to the kitchen and actually made some little cakes that looked a bit like the Lafay one. But not AS squished. they were actually quite nice, really

She'd already eaten three,

If he wanted to do this rather fast, then the best way to do it was to ask a Professor that may have or not an idea at least of what he wanted.

Treyen's fingers were crossed as he stood in line in order to speak to this new Professor. Ah. Jake was already there. Perhaps Treyen can cut---no, he was staying in his place.

Oh my Gilderoy!

Look at them muffins! With duckies! Treyen helped himself one. Just one. Sugar, you know.

Knocking on the door ,and taking a seat

After a few moments of just sitting at his desk, staring straight ahead, Jeremy had decided that his conversation with Trixie had gone quite well. Really well actually. Besides, he had something to look forward to. Not only were there quite a few students waiting outside but also he was soon going to be teaching them things about Muggles. Only with what to start?

Another movement from outside made him snap out of his thoughts about possible future lessons, however. Right, there were students waiting outside. With a grin on his lips Jeremy swiftly moved back to the open door and peeked outside without actually stepping over the threshold. "Now, who wants to go next?" Then after a short pause he reconsidered his sentence and added, "Though, actually, you can all enter at once if you want to. Unless anybody had any specific questions or seeked a private talk with me, of course."

Hovering at the door for a few seconds he gave all of them a friendly smile before returning to the chair behind his desk. They would have to decide among themselves who would come in.

OOC: You may all now post in the Office. Make sure you're familiar with the Classroom Rules before posting, however. ;]

Last year Roxxy had wanted to take Muggle studies taught then by Professor Lawson but for some reason she hadn't. Now Professor Lawson had left Hogwarts and a new professor had taken up the position instead. So Roxxy figured that she should get to know her new professor and ask if he could mend her broken an unworking radio. Her mother had bought it before term but it had stopped working when she came to school.

Walking down the corridor to the office with her radio clenched tight under her arm she spotted about 8 other students from different houses waiting to be allowed entrance. "I guess there is queue to see the professor?" Roxxy asked as she stopped to take a seat on the couch. It was best to get comfortable since there were no telling when it would be her time to see the professor.

Alice walked into Professor Zookara's office (which she thought was an awesome last name) and sat down on one of the chairs. She wasn't sure if she really should take a Muggles Studies class, seeing how she was raised by a muggle father and the belief that she was entirely muggle for the first eleven years of her life, but she thought it would be interesting to see the muggle world from the perspective of someone who had lived their whole life in the wizarding world.

Alice patiently waited to be allowed in to his office.

There was a new man in town. A man teaching her favourite, and most likely best, subject. Muggle Studies. And according to the info in the common room his name was Professor Zookara. With a name like that Sarah was sure he should have been teaching Care of Magical Creatures, but no. However that thought reminded her that she also had to visit that new teacher before lessons as well.

Strolling along the corridor, Sarah smiled as she saw some people already waiting. One of them Roxxy. "Heyy guys. Someone has already knocked, right?" It would seem a logical conclusion. So she took a seat, crossing her legs and getting comfy, with one eye fixed on the door and another scanning the corridor. Troublemakers could come from anywhere.

Waiting for his guests - who were in HIS office, oh it felt so good to have an own office again - to answer, his gaze lazily drifted back towards his still open door. Which was when he noticed that there were still people outside...and new people too. Whoa, now someone was popular, hmm? Hehe.

As they were apparently NOT looking inside he had to get their attention in another way. Because right now a) it would be rude of him to get up mid-conversation and b) he was too lazy to get up from his desk in the first place. Which was why he quickly reached for a pre-prepared piece of parchment and his quill and wrote a quick note which he sent flying outside with a flick of his wand.

OOC: You may all now post in the Office. Make sure you're familiar with the Classroom Rules before posting, however. ;]

A note made it's way out of the door, and Sarah grabbed it as it headed for her nose. Was that...a duck? The man used duck patterned notepaper? Umm. Yeah. "We can go in now," she smiled at the three around her, standing up and following the little Gryffindor into the room.

This should be interesting.

If the notepaper was anything to go by.

Arya had not been in this office for a loooong time.

Not since last term.

So the the young Puff decided that she would stop by and visit the office, she just how much had changed. That and she just felt like visiting the professor since she was passing by. Skipping into the waiting area, her eyes quickly scanned the area.

Empty.

Well she would just have to entertain herself. With a small running start, she plopped herself onto one of the couches, pulling a piece of gum out as she did. Waiiiiit a minute. She forgot to knock. Arya stared at the door, and after a moment of contemplation, quickly pulled out her wand aimed it at her gum. "Engorgio." She watched the gum grow slightly bigger than a golf ball before casting again.

"Gemino." Now holding two big pieces of gum, she sat up on the couch and tossed one after the other at the door. A satisfied grin spreading across her lips as they both made a soft thump noise when making contact with the door.

Zookara would here that, right?

BUMP!

- his head jerked back up upon hearing two noises outside his door. Or rather on his door. Had somebody knocked? Though, it WAS a weird way to knock. He slowly got up from his chair - placing the rubber duck on a random spot on his desk - and went over to open the door and look outside.

So somebody HAD knocked. "Please come in, Arya." He directed the girl sprawled across the couch outside with a small smile. Already half-turned to walk back into his office, his eyes fell on his door...which had acquired some additional decoration. Was that gum? "What's up with that?" Jeremy turned back to the Hufflepuff with a small grin playing around his lips. He was pretty sure that there hadn't been any gum on his door before.

OOC: You may now post in the Office. Make sure you're familiar with the Classroom Rules before posting, however. ;]

This couch was so comfortable. Comfortable enough to fall asleep on. And if she hadn't done just that in the library, she would have. Heh. The girl was content laying on the couch letting her eyes drift lazily around the room when the gum covered door opened to reveal the Muggle Studies Professor.

Pulling herself out of her reverie, she allowed a smile to cross her face as she rolled off the couch and began skipping over to the office, steps faltering a bit when he asked about the gum. Her eyes flicked to the two pieces of gum stuck to his door. Amazing how quickly she had forgotten about it once she had 'knocked'.

Tell the truth or lie. The truth.....a lie. The truth... "I thought your door could use a bit of....decoration." Her smile turned grin miiight have given away that she was lying. Probably. "I could add more if you like." Or she could take those pieces back and give them to Destiny. Hehe.

Without really waiting for much of a response, she skipped by the tall professor to inspect the office.

Josephina honestly did not know why she was here, except that for some odd reason she felt almost like Jeremy Zookara had grown into somewhat of a friend these past ten months. Strange, since she never usually allowed herself friendship with anyone.... No, she had her books as confidants. Why would she need people? Yet this term between Jeremy and Davina, it was odd. And she was oddly enough going to miss them over the summer.

Which she guessed was why she was there... To say goodbye. Strange, considering it wasn't really goodbye - she'd see him in a month or two, right?

Knock, knock.

Well there was no turning back now.
