Hadley stopped as she entered Newton's waiting room. Merlin-in-Mustard, she was winded. How did she get so out of shape over the summer, with as busy as she was? Especially with her quidditch, you'd think she was in better shape than ever. Oh, well, Hogwarts and its stairs would get her back in shape in no time. She should have brought water with her, though.

After a minute or two of waiting, Hadley stood up straight again and crossed the room to Newton's door, tapping gently on it. She was sure that as soon as Newton saw her he'd know what this was about. Potions tutoring. The girl still needed it, even if she did well on her final last year. While she waited for the Professor, Hadley took a seat.

Art was juuuuuuust putting up a new photograph of his granddaughter, April, when there was a knock at the door. He stepped back for a moment to make sure it was straight on the wall, and went to open the door.

"Miss Denaker," Art said with a smile. "Welcome back! Come in, come in, let's have a chat," he said. He assumed, anyway, that she was here to talk about Potions, and he was glad to see her. "How was your summer?" he asked as he closed the door behind her.

OOC: Come in, post in the office

The morning after the feast one of the first things Hadleigh decided to do was stop by Professor Newton's office after she had taken care of a few other things first. A small smile was on her face as per usual as of lately as she reached the door to the mans office, lifted her hand and tapped her knuckles against the door announcing her presence. She had chosen to make the visit sooner rather then lately as it wasn't highly important but she didn't want to find herself getting much to busy as she tended to do and not have the chance to so Art what she had promised that she would.

The brunette then went and selected one of the comfy arm chairs to settle into as she waited to be called into the office.

Art was giving Madame Curie a little grooming session, brushing out her fur, just the way she liked, when a knock came at the door. Art finished brushing her fur, telling her "Sorry dear, I'll give you another brushing tomorrow," and put the grooming supplies away. He went to the door and opened it, finding Miss Lynch waiting. He smiled at her and said "Come in, come in, how are you Miss Lynch?" whilst opening the door and stepping aside so that she could enter the office.

Dora still wasn't one hundred percent, but she made her way from the towers to the dungeons anyway. She had been absent for a little while, since right after the feast actually, but Professor Newton knew the details. Not only did he know them, he had been in CONSTANT contact with her and had been awesome. Okay... so this made the girl feel horrible since she had originally thought that he would NEVER compare to Airey, but here he had been amazing. Like, he had even been much more lovely to her than any other professor to date (with the exception of her uncle).

She bit her lip before raising her arm to knock, but she finally forced herself to do so before flopping into a nearby seat to wait.

Art was just grading some things, when he heard a knock at the door. He quickly finished adding up the score of the paper he was assessing, and put it neatly into his side desk. He stood up, went to the door, and opened it.

"Ahh Miss Umbridge, come in," he said.

With Vlam sitting on her shoulder Leesha walked trough the dungeons toward professor Newton's office, her rat Vlam end his rat had became friends and she had promised the professor to bring her rat Vlam sometime so that the two animals could play so here she was! "You're going to behave yourself today" she told her rat, knowing full well that her rat understood her, now Vlam only needed to listen and that... Could be a problem...

Softly humming a muggle song she knocked on his office door before walking over to the waiting area to sit while she waited for the professor to invite her in. She wondered how it would be to be invated into his office, she never had been in a office from a professor here at Hogwarts and well, the only other experiences she had with offices were on her Muggle school and she only got there while being punished for something silly like hiding the boy's underwear after their soccer games... The teachers were there so unfair!

Anyway, she was curious how the professor's office would be and if it would be anything like the muggle office's she had seen.

Art was in the middle of analysing a brew sent to him from the hospital he did his Healer internship at, many MANY years ago. It was part of a trial for Dragonpox treatment, and he was just looking at it, going through some notes, when a knock came. He spent another 5 minutes tidying it all up, it was still rather secret business, putting it safely into his desk draw, before he went to open the door. "Miss Griffel, and Vlam, hello there. Would you like to come in?" he asked. "Madame Curie is having a play on her wheel." Perhaps Vlam wanted to say hello to her.

Tenacius had just gotten off the mirror with his folks, and in his excitement, couldnt wait for the the next day to harass talk to this Head of House. So off his goes, running about the Gryffindor towers looking for Professor Newton and when the boy didnt see him there, hopped on his cruiser and zoomed for the Potions Master's domain.

He stopped in front of the door and, contrary to that level of excitement pumping through his veins, knocked on the door calmly "Professor? Are you there?" he whispered loudly, his voice carried across the silent hall.

Art had just dozed off in the chair, the heat in his office to help ease the stiffness of his knees made him slightly drowsy. But he awoke at once at the sound of a knock and whisper. He got up, surprisingly quickly, and opened the door. "Mr Salander, w-well hello there. Do you want to come in? I have some tea," he added. Perhaps the young man could mix him the same tea he had at the house party.

Heading down to her HoH's office, Noelle needed to talk with him. She wasnt exactly sure of how to ask. She'd been practicing her little speech in her head as she made her way down to his office. She needed to increase her potion skills to be able to prove herself so she could get into animagus training.

So she entered the waiting area for Professor Newton's office and knocked.
Tap.
Tap.
Tap.

Art was in the store room, re-organising some of the stock. Putting the new behind the old, that sort of thing. He heard a tap tap tap, and poked his head out of the door.

"Miss Summers," he said, with a smile. "Hello there. Come to see me?" Well that seemed obvious. He put the vial he was holding back on the shelf and locked the door, before going towards his office and opening it up. "Come in." He led the way inside, and started to boil the kettle. "Can I get you a tea or-or a hot chocolate?"

As she walked with Miranda, Nat couldn't stop talking. Talking about the corridors, the dungeon, this term, anything that was coming to her mind was coming out her mouth. "So you have a boyfriend yet? Not that you need a boyfriend, you are young. Honestly boyfriends are so complicated. Maybe we shouldn't even date guys. It would be easier just to ignore them all, but they are just to cute to ignore." UGH UGH GUH, "Do you wear red at all? You'd look good in red."

Moving to the door Nat knocked. "A knock is such a weird thing, I mean it is just a sound, but it could be made into music real quick." Knocking on the door again she started making it a beat. Giggling as she did that. "Do you think he's in? He might be at the Great Hall, it is close to dinner. Ooooh we were going to go eat. We will have to do that after this. I want to show him these notes."


Words needed to stop soon, goodness.

Randa walked with Natalia to the Professor's office and listened .. Well, she half listened to what she was saying.. Sort of... Her own mouth still full of the jumble of words and thoughts... But this was pretty hilarious, right?

" Actually.. Yeah.. I do have a boyfriend now.. He's super sweet and so cute... You may know him... His name is Brady... but it is confusing... To be dating I guess.. I never know how to act really.. around him I mean... He makes me nervous, but not in a bad way or anything... Oh you think I'd look good in red?.. thanks.. It's one of my favourite colours actually.. I like bright colours."


Miranda smiled as Nat started to drum a neat beat on Newton's door.. " I wish I could do that.. be all musical and such, but I don't have that kinda talent like you and you're bandmates... but Brady plays guitar... He's really good at it.. I love listening to him play.. I'm the only one he'll let listen, but he won't share any of the stuff he's been writing.. Maybe he'll show me one day.. " She shrugged.

Yup the word vomit just kept on coming.... " Oh I know.. I'm getting pretty hungry... I wonder what's for dinner, I do hoe it's something yummy... Otherwise I'll have to go and fix something in the kitchens later to eat... that's happened a few times this term.. I think my taste buds are changing or something"

Being just after the time Art took his dinner, he was back in his office with a cup of tea. He had replaced his normal day-to-day shoes with his slippers, as he always did after dinner. The fact that there was a knock at the door didn't make him think about replacing the slippers with his shoes. Nope. He put his mug down, stood up with a bit of a grunt, and opened the door. "Ahh good evening Miss Franks-Mundie and-and Miss Blaze, how are you both?" he asked with a warm smile.

He stepped aside to give room, "Come in, come in."

This was long overdue. Simply put.

Dressed down in her warmest pajamas and infamous poops emoji bedroom slippers, Olivia made her way down to Professor Newton's office, a mysterious bag slung over her shoulder. It probably didn't appear to be much, but she'd had one of the Seventh Years help her in charming it with an undetectable extension charm.

Wiggling her toes in her slippers, she knocked carefully on his office door. He was a busy man, you see, and pulling him away from things didn't seem to make much sense to her, so here she was.

Art was enjoying another cup of tea, when a knock came. He placed the mug back on the desk and walked to the door. Opening it, he smiled to see one of his Lionettes. "Hello Miss Philips. Would you like to come in for some uhh.. tea or hot chocolate?" he stood aside, giving her room to get in.

Dora hadn't been to visit her Head of House in a while... and well, she had meant to, but sometimes she got sidetracked and busy and stuff. But she was here now and had some news... and a question. Hehe. Dora never came without some sort of fun news, you know!

Well, the blonde wasn't entirely sure that the news was fun for Professor Newton, but it was fun for her! So that was what counted, right? And maybe he had some tea... and maybe she would drink it this time? She was beginning to trust the man, as it were. Progress. So she, without hesitation, approached the door and gave it a hard knock. Just in case he couldn't hear well enough if she had tapped on it.

After a few minutes Miranda heard footsteps coming near from behind them... Sure enough here came Professor Newton.. Mug in hand as he greeted them kindly.. " Good evening Professor... I'm fine thanks... Nat and I just finished up testing a couple potions in the lab... " she said as she diverted her attention to looking over at her older friend...

Hopefully Natalia would get the hint that she was pretty much there as a tiny sidekick at this point.. It was no secret that Miranda was not great at potions.. So, why would she be the one to do the talking when it came to all the potion talk?

Art sat at his desk, grading papers, when he heard a loud knock. He put the papers into his drawer, because of condifentiality, put his pen into its little holder, and opened the door. He was pleased to see who it was, and his smile showed that. "Hello Miss Umbridge, how are you?" he asked, standing aside to give her room to enter.
