As you walk through the corridor, passing the creepy spirit room and ignoring the portraits' conversation among each other, you'll encounter a turn to your left where the scene will change entirely. Here, you'll find much more lit area with a double couch, and two more single ones. This marks the Ancient Runes territory. There's a vase with white flowers in the middle of this seating area. A book or two are usually scattered on top of the small table too, those are chosen by the professor for educational and entertainment purposes. Watch out though, the issue of those comic books or magazines may be way, WAY out of date talk about 30 years late.
This is the place where you pass to knock on his office's door, or wait for him to invite you inside. There's a small box next to the office's door too for you to slip a letter inside in case you needed to discuss something without revealing your identity, whether it's a dumb question, a complaint, or a suggestion.
OOC: As stated above, you should post here first if you want to see the professor, then wait till I quote you to post at the office thread. If your character wants to slip a letter into that box, you should state them leaving after slipping that letter or else the professor could catch them.
Dylan walked to the corridor outside Professor Botros' office, after the yelling he got in class he was determined to do something fun to the professor.. like a prank of such if you will.
So he looked around and made sure that no-one was there in the corridor to catch him doing this, he got out the banner that he had created and was starting to unroll it to make sure that it was perfect. He looked at it and nodded.. just what the oldie needed, he then looked round again and got ready to hang it up with that sticking spell he had learned the previous year.
He picked up the parchment which was quite bigger than him and he was having a bit of a time dealing with it but he had done it before so he could do it again, and this time he had a valid reason to do it. No-one yelled at him for just being curious and get away with it.

Susan was walking around Hogwarts trying to remember where exactly she was. She turned and saw DJ, she breathed a sigh of relief. She was starting to get a little panicky about not knowing which way to go. Susan walked up to DJ smiling "Hey DJ, what do you have there?" Susan noticed that he was having a little trouble with some sort of banner. Well she never walked away from a friend who was struggling and could use her help "Did you need some help?"

Dylan was trying to find the right side of this large banner that he had when he heard someone call to him, the voice sounded familiar and yet he still froze hoping to hide under the banner so that the person couldnt see who he was even though they had just said his name.
So he peeked out and breathed a sigh of relief as he saw that it was only Susan "Hey.. I have here.. a banner.. for the professor that has his office here.. Professor Botros" he said looking at his banner and finally finding the corner that he was looking for.
He looked at her as she asked if she could help, well if she didnt mind what he was doing then she could help him all she liked. He nodded after a moment of studying whether she would be able to do this "Sure you can.. just grab the corner on the other side there.. while I stick this side up" he said as he tried to remember the spell that they had learnt last term to stick stuff.

Susan smiled at DJ when she said she could help him. She was always willing to help a friend and was glad that DJ accepted it. As DJ was holding up one corner Susan grabbed the other. She was curious about the banner made for the professor. Maybe it was to welcome him to Hogwarts.
As Susan started reading the banner and gasped. "DJ, why are you going to hang up this banner? It is not very nice and you could get in trouble if you got caught?" Then Susan realized that she could get in trouble for helping him. Well she did say she would help him and this was kind of crazy. Gave her a bit of an adrenaline rush. "Did something happen in class earlier today?" Susan didn't like the idea of making fun a professor, but DJ had to have a good reason as to why he wanted to put this banner up.

He smiled as she did as he told her to and grabbed the other end of the banner while he decided exactly how high he wanted to stick this banner, once he had decided how high he put the corner to the wall and took out his wand, now what was the spell they had learnt in Astronomy last term.. oh yes! "Adhaero!" he said pointing his wand at the corner and letting go. It worked! yes! now for the other corner.
But it was then that Susan realised what they were doing and questioned him "Im going to hang up this banner cause I want to, and plus.. it needs to be done" was all he said as he grabbed the lower corner and lined it up with the upper corner and got ready to stick it "I wont get into trouble cause he wont know its me" he said as he finally figured out where this next corner would be. He looked at her as she questioned him about class.
He looked at the banner and nodded "This.. professor! yelled at me today.. just cause I wanted to see what that pile was, I mean it was covered so I was going to uncover it when.. I got yelled at." he held the corner to the wall "Adhaero" letting go he saw it didnt work.. he held it to the wall again "And for that.. he is getting a lovely banner outside his office" he said looking around again to make sure there was no-one around to catch him doing this "Adhaero!" he concentrated this time and saw that it had stuck.
He walked a little away from the corner and at various intervals he stuck the top and bottom parts of the banner so that it was straight on the wall and it wouldnt fall off. Soon he had got to where Susan was "Ok.. you can give me that corner.. so that I can this banner up.. and get outta here before anyone sees me.. or you" he knew that she too needed to get away fast! cause if anyone saw her.. then Minnie would not be happy and would probably hand him over to Professor Botros.

DJ was lining up the corner and said a spell. Wow that worked really well..she would have to ask him to show her that one..it was cool. She could stick her pictures to her wall without using tape. Susan chided herself, she needed to focus on the task at hand. She didn't want to get caught.
Susan listened as DJ was telling her as to why he wanted to put this banner up. She wasn't sure if getting yelled at in class was worth putting this kind of banner up, but DJ seemed passonate about it so Susan didn't question it. If he thought this what the professor deserved then she would agree...you always stick by your friends.
Susan handed DJ the corner she was holding and watched him put up the other side of the banner. "Once you get that up we should run until we are safe and walk separate ways so no one thinks we were together. I think that will better are chances at not getting caught." Well Sue hoped they wouldn't get caught, she really didn't want detention on her first day of classes.

Dylan took the corner from Susan and he put it up in line with the other corner "Adhaero" he took his hand away and saw that it hadnt stuck to the wall like he wanted it to, "Adhaero!" he said again this time after some much needed concentration it had stuck. He the grabbed the lower corner, looked around to make sure they were alone and lined up the last and final corner.. and then that would be it.. the banner would be up for the whole world.. well the whole school to see! "Adhaero!" he then hesitantly took his hand away and smiled.. it had stuck!
There it was his banner up on the wall now:
SPOILER!!: Special Banner for Professor Botros
He then looked around and then at Susan, "Ok.. thats up now.. lets see what he thinks of that now!" he knew it was time to get out of there before the professor or anyone else came along and saw them. He nodded in agreement to what she said "Yeah I agree with you.. thats why we should get outta here before someone sees us" he said offering his hand so that she wouldnt get lost or anything, he had offered it without thinking cause right now all he wanted was to get outta there.

Susan saw the banner up...it looked really good, he must have worked hard on it. "Wow that looks great DJ." Well the deed was done now, no turning back. Sue agreed with DJ, it was time to hit the road, then Susan remembered she had no idea how to get back to the common room..or any room for that matter.
Susan was going to go into panic mode when DJ stuck out his hand for Sue to take it. Thank goodness Sue thought, she would be able to get out of here without getting lost further. Susan gratefully grabbed DJ's hand and they bolted...wow DJ was fast.

Dylan smiled as she said it looked great! he knew that it did cause he made it didnt he? He then held onto her hand and got out of there as fast as he could WITH HER.. cause he didnt want her getting caught and him getting into trouble for her getting caught. So they left the corridor and didnt stop running until they thought they were safe out in the grounds somewhere.
Okay, so, the man was old? It made total sense. Not one single young person would want to teach Ancient Runes, right? Except...she knew her aunt was quite fond of the Runic language, but her aunt didn't count.
Lottie did know that centaurs had taught at Hogwarts before, so, really, a dinosaur would be completely fine as a Professor. Especially of Runes.

Anyway....knock, knock. We wait.
Thud, thud, thud, thud...
Botros' cane was thudding softly on the floor all the way from the staircase to the corridor where his neat seating-- oh. His eyes fell on two interesting sighting; banners on his walls, a young kid is standing at his door. He moved closer and squinted his eyes at the text on those banners, a raise of his eyebrows followed. It was... an interesting assumption.
"Hello dear." He spoke softly, heading for his office's door, "Are you the banner maker?" His wand tapped the knob and the door swung open.

For Merlin's sake. And she'd thought Vindictus was old. Her eyes hadn't landed on the Professor, but since she could hear very well, she heard a loud thud on the floor coming closer and closer. Blue eyes rested on the banner, and she suddenly realized...that she could've done something to improve it if she'd known the Runic language.
Then the old man was next to her, and noticed the banner, and her.
UH-OH.
'Hello dear.' That was amusing. And then she mentally facepalmed herself for sticking in this place not knowing where the Professor was or if he'd seen the banner before or not. "Hello, Professor," he ought to be the Professor, for he was opening the door, "Me? Nope." She did consider taking the blame, just to see his reaction, but..., "And trust me, it's the truth, I wouldn't take credit for someone else's job when I could've done a better one." The tone and her expression was very serious indeed."Not that I was planning to, or anything." Whatever she planned, didn't involve banners, it involved actions.

West, with the crup Feo on its extensible leash, came back after waaaaaalking and running and generally exhausting the crup out and himself a bit too even if he had boundless energy. He was supposed to meet the professor now and all, give the crup over, and then make rune stuff!
He waited, not all that patiently, and scratched the crup's ears.

The classroom was clean, hazard-free and ready for next lesson. How long it'd taken him to do all that hard work with his wand, Botros had no idea. All he knew as he walked out of the classroom was that his back ached a little, and he leaned to his cane for help taking the steps toward his office where he could meet the curse-breaker's son.
Speaking of which, "Right on time, m'boy." He smiled at him and could read the anticipation on his face. His body language was way too obvious to be concealed by a serious look anyways, and Ab was big on body language reading. Feo, on the other hand, seemed to be in need of a good meal. Ab wiggled his fingers at his Crup as greetings before he went for the door.... [TBC]
Laura was a bit nervous about coming here, it was a place she ever though she would come to especially since she was sure Professor Botros hated her ever since she refused to do the chanting in her first lesson but it wasn't her fault she wasn't into that sort of thing.
Laura shifted uncomfortable from one foot to the other, she really wanted to just sneak away and turn around but she was on a mission, something the Professor had said in her detention had stuck in her mind and she wanted to know more.
*Knock* *knock*
Laura finally found the courage to knock on the door, now all she had to do was wait for the Professor to answer the door, but she still felt really uncomfortable and so she was shifting from one foot to another.
He sat outside the professors office.
Runes was always my favorite subject. Let's see what this professors take on runes is.
He charmed a couple rocks to race around his feet.
