Default of Professor Maddox Quigley


Once you've been invited inside the Professor's Office, feel feel to take a seat either at the chair opposite his desk or any of the two long couches fixed about the room. Either's fine as he isn't usually bothered by most things. Whatever the case, he's like to make himself comfortable so you might as well do the same.

To the far corner of the room, you'll notice a large, fluffy cushion on the floor by a little cabinet that is always closed. You'll do best to leave that where it is. The scratching post, as it so happens, is also none of your concern.

The bookshelves all around the room are filled with various subjects ranging from Charms to Dragon taming, from curse breaking to cooking. It's not certain he's read them all but the Professor likes surrounding himself with as wide an array as possible, in the event he gets a chance to have a sit down but doesn't fancy a nap to while away his afternoon. You could burrow something from his 'modest' collection if he likes you enough but it's more likely he'll ask you if the Library suddenly ran out of books.

On his desk, you'll notice a picture of a woman with a wide smile and another more crowded subject consisting of five young children ranging from 2-6 years old with two sets of twins in the mix. It's best you not touch those; he'll probably know if you did.

Due to his sensitive sense of smell the Professor has also charmed the office, leaving it rather neutral if not with the faintest hint of lavender.

"That should take care of that."

As for the request to come up, the man eased off the wall to make way for him to pass but not without making a face. Kid germs. He got enough of those at home thank you . "You can keep it, I'll fetch my own at some point." Why half eaten? Why not nicely polished and ready to offer up as a gift??? "Come in."

OOC: Go ahead and post inside ^^
"Wow, that is a cool sign Professor Dude. All it needs now is some sing and dance and it is perfect" Dante would take all the credit for a sign like that. It was pretty awesome. Way better than whatever was on it before. And he was only being nice by offering half an apple. He had eaten the other half because it was delicious.

Not like he was sick or anything.

Dante nodded and entered the room. Wow this is a nice office. Look at that comfortable couch. Dante walked over to it and fell into it. This is nice. From this view Dante focused on the Guy's desk. He had a couple of pictures. A couple too many if you asked Dante. But it did not stop him from getting up and grabbing them to get a better look at them. Before setting them down again. And why was that cat thing in this room. Did Professor have a cat.

"Nice Pictures, Professor. Do you have a cat? It smells like you do"

It really did.

"Nice Pictures, Professor. Do you have a cat? It smells like you do"

It really did.


Professor...Dude? How about they not venture into that overly annoying field of giving him nicknames? He liked the sound of that. "Quigley. Professor Quigley and I'm glad you approve of that sign, it tells me you now notice it so the next time you disregard it, I won't give you a slap on the wrist and make new adjustments." Did he get where he was going with that? For his own sake he hoped so because the man couldn't stand the loud noises, not at all.

The Professor swung the door closed with a light thud after the boy entered, getting the feeling that left to him he'd have slammed it but this kid was on a roll today. Absolutely. Banging, germy food, nicknames and now touching his pictures. Eh....eeehhh stopit kid. Was he gonna have to play babysitter the entire time he was in here? This was too much work already. Maddox raised his wand lazily and cast a stinging hex at the nimble fingered boy in his office. A watered down version to avoid the tedium that came with healing scorch marks and swelling but one that still hurt enough. "Don't touch those Mister...." Kid That Touched Too Much.

If the man didn't know any better he'd think he was doing it all on purpose but Maddox maintained his composure as he took his seat. A curious and somewhat offended brow was raised at his question. "My office does most certainly not smell like a cat." He would know, he charmed it with scents himself. "I do however have a cat. Scruffles as his name happens to be."

"My office does most certainly not smell like a cat." He would know, he charmed it with scents himself. "I do however have a cat. Scruffles as his name happens to be."


Quigley...Dante still liked Professor Dude better. Had a better ring to it. Yeah, he knew that if there was a next time he would get in trouble. Which there probably won't be unless he gets in trouble in Quigley's class. You never know about that. It was strange that his hand started to sting and almost made him drop the picture. But Quigley would get even more mad at that. So he took the pain and lightly place the photo back on the desk. Oh he wanted to know his name know. Well since he would find out his name when classes start. Why not have some more fun.

"Nigel. Nigel Barrington."

By now, he was definitely doing it on purpose because he would not get another chance. Teachers leave so quickly at this school.And Q's office did smell like cat. Come to think of it, Q was a much better nickname for Quigley. Dante would call him that from now one. Just not to his face. And maybe he was so use to the cat smell. He can not even smell it anymore. There. "Nope, Still Does.There is probably a charm that can take away the smell. You should use that" And look at that he does have a cat. Made sense since Dante has never seen a dog at this school...yet. Still hoping.

"You think Scruffles would like a half eaten apple. It is not rotten yet. And oh, I have some charms spells question stuff for you."

Maddox was only satisfied after the pictures were returned to the desk where they belonged. He would have to go about removing the kid's scent after he left. Sigh. Why did they always have to touch everything? Was their quality of sight directly proportional to amount they touched?

And did he say Nigel Barrington? Funny, he didn't didn't have one of those on any of his lists last he checked but......sure kid. You wanna be Nigel, all the power to you. He'd change it when he got to class and got the kid's real name, that way it could reflect whatever name the boy thought suited him better. All the power to you little man. "Well Mister Barrington, I'll thank you to keep your hands to yourself the next time you visit." Unless he wanted another hex thrown at him. His choice. Maddox wasn't fussed about throwing those around, not even when it came to students.

Was he going to continue insisting on the smell of his office though? He didn't think he'd be able to be bothered with it for much longer. "Understand, Mister Barrington, there are charms already placed in this office, ones I renew often. The Healer is just around the corridor, I suggest you see her about your condition." Instead of annoying him with it, thanks.

If that was it, then there was no point in...him...staying. Of course he had questions. Why wouldn't he? Eh. Was it naptime yet? "Scruffles doesn't like apples now what's your question?"

Well he was only doing the touching picture thing and every other annoy thing to well annoy him. Simple and since it only worked once, before actually getting you into trouble. Dante was satisfied. Plus the pictures were not cool enough for a second look anyway. "I will remember that Professor Q..Quigley". So he did have charms in place and look at that he was making fun of him. Well maybe Dante was starting to like this Quigley. "No, thanks. I have already seen my Head of House too much already."

And look he learned something new. That his cat did not like apples. Why, Dante did not care. But it was something interesting. Oh questions. Right, what was his question again. "Oh yes, well my questions. How much trouble would i get into if i nap during your lesson?"

Best to ask it here and not in class where it might be considered rude.

The Healer doubled as Head of House? That was interesting to note, maybe not now for any particular reason but it was good to know for later just in case. Airey was another but Merlin he was far too many stairs up for him to really think to depend on him. It might not be worth it without sending a patronus of sorts.

Maddox waited for the question, already skimming through his mind in case it was a question he could answer right off the top of his head but what he heard...that question. Well. The Charms Professor cocked his feet up on the desk and leaned back in his chair with a lazy stretch. Interesting he should ask. "Absolutely no trouble." He lied with the most leisurely and unperturbed of expressions. He simply was not bothered. "You're free to do as you please in my class Mr. Barrington. Who am I to tell you how to earn your education?" He glanced down at the large comfy cushion by the cabinet, figuring he'd take a nap after this one left.

"Do whatever you think works for you and I'll do whatever I think works for me, then I get paid and you get well rested. Everybody wins." Simple, no?

Hmm..Dante did not know whether this was too good to be true. OR was he that lazy and it was okay for him to sleep in class. Dante wished it was this. But it really did sound like he could nap in class. Though really what would happen if he did. Sting him, dump water on him. Whatever, it was worth trying once.

"You Sir, are a Gentleman and a Scholar"

Napping was important to a growing mind. So Dante would try napping once and see what happens. He did not want to get into too much trouble to incur the wrath of Bellaire and Murdoch.

"Oh, and my last question. Is there a charm to stop hat hair? Because that stuff is annoying Professor Q"

If not, then he would just soldier on wearing his soon to be made fedora like a boss.

A gentleman and a scholar, smirk. He'd have to tell his wife about that one. New compliments right there. In truth Maddox could pretend to be a gentleman for as long as he wanted and he would continue being so as long as certain people didn't decide that his class was nap hour. It most certainly was not.

He raised another curious brow at the last question to be asked, hoping it really WAS the last.

....Hat hair....?

He could have stayed napping. How was this detrimental to the boy's charms education. "None that I'm aware of, unfortunately, though the Annexe and the Library of both full of books. I suggest you make some stops to figure it out." Hat hair. SERIOUSLY.

Dante just nod. He gave Q a compliment there. Since Dante was about to leave anyway. He had annoyed him enough for today. Possibly the whole term already. But Dante was shocked when Professor Q did not realize the evil that hat hair was. Maybe he just did not wear hats...That was probably it. Well, oops. Dante was asking the wrong guy.

"Oh, well maybe i will do that." He probably won't the library was really far away from his common room to even both. Plus it was not important now. Since he could not even make hats yet.

Sigh.

"Well that was all my questions Professor Quigley. I will see you in class. Have fun napping or whatever you were doing before i got here"

Dante said as he made his exit. This Professor was definitely interesting.

The Professor seemed pretty nice so far, thought it was hard for Lux to really judge based off of a few seconds of interaction with the man.

Not picking up on the fact that Cutty clearly wanted to talk to him alone, the redhead made her way into the office before taking a seat in one of the chairs opposite the desk. Time for her to look around since she had never been in the Charms office before. Was that a scratching post? Awww, he had a cat; that was sweet. Lux liked cats. There were also a lot of books, which she approved of and a photograph of kids on his desk. Kids were precious and she loved them.

Walking into the office, Gregoire noticed right away all the books in here! This man either liked to read, or just surrounded himself with books to make himself seem smarter. The Snake was hoping it was the first choice, and not the latter of the two. If it was the latter of the two this man should be ashamed of himself! Tsk tsk tsk. Bad catman! Speaking of being able to transform into an animal...that's why Gregoire was here.

Taking a seat on one of the couches in the room, Gregoire began to speak. "Professor, I was wondering if you could teach me how to become an Animagus." That's the question that he needed to ask. Seeing how the other day in class, the man turned himself from a cat into his regular self, it became relevant that he was an Animagus himself. The Snake would've went to the Transfiguration teacher about this except the fact that he was in a bit of trouble with her AND Gregoire wasn't sure if she was an Animagus. He would've preferred to learn from an Animagus.

Speaking of which, it now made sense to him why there was a scratching post in here. And a fluffy pillow in the corner. Was this seriously how the Professor spent most of his time? In his cat form taking a nap, or scratching at the post? Well, that would explain why the room had an odor of a cat.

SPOILER!!: hehe
Well sure...he smelled the brownies and cookies too...but..."Not that smell." It took a moment for him to grab hold of himself at which point the man stepped back with a small smile as he accepted the plate. "Thank you though." The scent still played at his nose but Maddox willed himself to ignore it, grasping at any other scent wafting through his seating area as a result of the charms set into place. "It's just...I could have sworn I smelled...."

But it didn't matter. "Yeah. sure, come in." He made way for her to enter, hoping to leave the scent behind them once he closed the door. Just don't think about it Maddox. All he had to do was focus on the scent of the cookies. Should be easy enough, they were still fresh.


He could smell? She looked around just as he changed his focus and moved so she could enter the office. Her thoughts still on smelling as he had taken the plate, she gripped her bag handle and headed in. "Thank you for taking some time to chat. Your entrance at the Great Hall during the feast has been on my mind. You know I'm a huge cat person." She grinned as she turned towards him.

"You can learn so much from cats, they are a part of divination." Did he know that? "I really should have been aware that you were not really a cat when I couldn't hear you. I'm usually really good at sensing animals thoughts."

The movement in her bag made her brain click, "OHMYGOSH.. OHMYGOSH" She squealed a bit and set down her bag. "I know what you were smelling. I didn't know if you would like them or not, but the way you were out there, you have to like them." She pulled out the bag, even after the small protest from Aries who had been pulling at it. "Catnip treats! They are Aries and Gemini's favorite. Would you like them?"

Speaking of being able to transform into an animal...that's why Gregoire was here.

Taking a seat on one of the couches in the room, Gregoire began to speak. "Professor, I was wondering if you could teach me how to become an Animagus." That's the question that he needed to ask. Seeing how the other day in class, the man turned himself from a cat into his regular self, it became relevant that he was an Animagus himself. The Snake would've went to the Transfiguration teacher about this except the fact that he was in a bit of trouble with her AND Gregoire wasn't sure if she was an Animagus. He would've preferred to learn from an Animagus.

Speaking of which, it now made sense to him why there was a scratching post in here. And a fluffy pillow in the corner. Was this seriously how the Professor spent most of his time? In his cat form taking a nap, or scratching at the post? Well, that would explain why the room had an odor of a cat.


Maddox settled into his seat at his desk, content to sit and munch at his new apple until the snake stated whatever it was he needed to ask. The first bite was heavenly. Did Mister Bastion know how juicy it was? Simply superb. Almost made him forget about that book he'd been looking for earlier...which reminded him...he still had to find it.

Eh, that'd get done eventually.

The boy's question had him leaning forward with a curious if not suspicious brow raised. He...wanted him...to teach him...to be an animagus?

Er..."This seems more like a question to be brought to Professor Bellaire, wouldn't you agree?" Maddox wasn't aware of the young Slytherin's prior interactions with the sour woman but he wasn't trying to step on toes or ruin anyone's future. "As you know, animagus training falls under the discipline of Transfiguration." He continued carefully before allowing himself another bite.

Transfiguration, horrible subject that.

"Catnip treats! They are Aries and Gemini's favorite. Would you like them?"


Maddox placed the plate of cookies and brownies on the small coffee table over by the couches before gesturing to the woman to have a seat. "Ah...yeah, they mentioned that." Her being a cat lover. "And I believe I got a front row seat myself." There really wasn't much else to think when a woman had you rubbing against her face while she spoke to you like you were 5.

The man still seemed somewhat distracted, even as he leaned against his desk. It could have been nothing but his nose was acting up even more than it should have. He was almost sure he could smell...well...cat. Odd, yes but it wasn't a scent that greeted him often in his office thanks to the charms put in place but...it wasn't possible. There was no catnip, there were no cats. Maddox found himself rubbing at his nose, wondering if maybe it was going out of sorts. "Really?" He had to try focusing on the conversation. "What do they have to do with Divination?" He had NO idea. The man continued rubbing at his nose for another moment before shrugging. "Don't worry about it. No hard feelings." In truth, he was already over it.

But then he heard a soft scuffle sound coming from her bag. Blue eyes darted to it, locking on as she began some high pitched squealing. Ow. Aha, so he HADN'T been going crazy, not on either account. There was a cat and there was catnip. Immediately Maddox flicked his wand and the cabinet by the cupboard swung open. "If you could be so kind as to store it in there." Sealed to keep all scents inside; he didn't fancy being distracted. "Thank you." Later, they could be enjoyed.

She might be blushing, yes she was blushing. He did see first hand her love for animals. "Well since I was a little girl, I have had the gift for Divination, it runs in my family actually, but for every seer comes a special gift. Mine is I am in tune with animals." Shew as very proud of that little gift and wasn't afraid to share it.

She looked at the cabinet in which was was pointing and walked over setting the catnip treats inside. "I hope you enjoy them, my little guys love those treats." Though she felt a bit weird giving them to a man. Oh well to each their own she decided and walked away from the the cabinet so he could close it.

"Oh they have everything to do with Divination. Animal's are like fortunate tellers within themselves. If you really know an animal you can predict things to come very easily. If there are no birds in the sky, you can bet within a few hours a bad storm will show itself. The same goes for cats. They have been our friend and helpers for a long long time." Her eyes lit up as she spoke passionately about the subject. "Now the difference is someone like yourself. You are not fully a cat, so to use you in Divination would not work and that's what I've come to speak to you about today. I am doing a lesson about Divination and cats and wondered if you would join us even if just in the beginning so that I could speak about this a little and have a real example." She knew even in his cat form he would have human mannerisms which would make a reading impossible and that was what she wanted to show her class.

She looked at him with an encouraging smile hoping he would be willing to help her.

With the treats placed in the cabinet, Maddox magicked the door shut once more. Lots of things were temporarily stored in there with it being preferred to extending the drawer at his desk and storing things there.

Nah, he liked that practically empty.

On an unrelated note, the Divination Professor must really have felt chewed up about the incident gone to be offering up explanations where none were required. Cats were endearing creatures, it wasn't the first he'd received a response like that, nor would it be the last as he was sure. "Cassie, relax, I said it's fine." In retrospect it was far less dramatic than it had seemed at the feast and even then it hadn't been a huge cause for disgruntlement.

He listened without interruption to her explanation of animals and Divination but it wasn't until she hit the part where he came in that active listening began to take place. Where he came in was usually the important part that needed understanding right away in case he ended up agreeing to something he'd regret. "So then...you want me...to come to class...as a cat, so the students can tell the difference when divining....?" Did that sum it up about right?

...

.....Eh. "Sure, why not?" And a casual shrug to boot. "Just lemme know when you want me showing up." Staying longer than needed, however, was out of the question. He'd seen enough of those children's behaviour to last him a lifetime and he had his own classes to be stuck with them.

In the meantime the faint scent rising from the box as he took it, left him with very little intention to hand it back. His nose wasn't usually wrong, not since his sense of smell sharpened and this wasn't the type of thing you turned down. Mmm...had to make this somewhat less unprofessional. "Thank you, Eden." He shoved his door open a little further. "Would you like to come in and have a bite?" If she ate too, then it wasn't so bad, see?

Or should he have waited til he opened it before copping to the fact he knew what was inside? Save himself the explanation. Meh, didn't matter. Probably wouldn't even occur to her.


You can come in...unless she isn't staying? *isn't sure*
Eden tried to read his face. His expressions. Did he like it? She knew he had to. She smiled and nodded. "Sure, sir--" she said softly, almost shyly, but for once, Eden did NOT feel shy at all. She didn't ask how he knew it was a food thing in there--he was a cat, after all, right? Surely his sense of smell was....really good.

She slipped into the office when he held the door open, looking around...curiously. HE HAD A FAMILY--At least--that what it LOOKED like when Eden saw the pictures on his desk. She had to hide her GRIN because that was just--

THE CUTEST THING IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE OH MY MERLIN.

"Professor--" she said softly, sitting in the chair in front of his desk, squishing her bum into the cushy QUIIIITE nicely, getting comfy. "I hope you're not too biased against all of us--" she said, rather bluntly, since..you know..he had OUTRIGHT BLOWN UP at them in the middle of class.

Angry Quiggles was really cute, though.

At least, Eden thought so.

She blushed as he reassured her the incident was fine and snapping a little more nervously, "Okay I'll stop apologizing now." She let out a giggle, "It was very humorous after the fact though. I mean I really did think I was helping a cat and then you became well you and Leo was already upset and then seeing that I actually kissed a man's head." Her giggles grew a bit more. Yes it was very funny now that it was over.

Moving on she nodded to his questions, "Yes preferably without the students knowing it is you at first. You can stay near the front of the room and on my chair if you like." She didn't need him manhandled by any students, so she'd watch for any of that.

"Students need to figure out that they can not do divination with a human being a cat." Human mind doesn't really change when in cat form, so it just made it useless, "and I promise not to keep you long. I will talk about the difference very early on." Snapping excitedly when he said he'd make it she grinned, "Either right before class or right when students are coming in would work nicely."

Adjusting her purse she was on cloud nine, this was going to be soooo fun! "Well I should be off. I have real cats to collect. See you on Wednesday at 10."

While she was making herself comfortable, Maddox moved to the cupboard near the back and snatched his wand from the surface. No knife which meant he got the pleasure of using the charm. Muggles went about things in strange ways. Airey tended to appreciate it but Maddox was practically a slave to his wand.

Inside the cupboard he grabbed two little saucers and placed them on the table before charming the box to unwrap itself.

"Um." Did he judge them all severely for what happened during that class? Merlin knew he wanted to, with everything in him, but it hadn't been all of them and he would hardly place blame on the ones that did nothing. "Eh." He shrugged cutting two pieces from the pie and and sliding one across to her. He conjured two forks and handed one over as well. "I've decided it doesn't bother me." The man sunk into his own seat, looking perfectly relaxed as if nothing existed outside his door. "Afterall, can't bother me if I'm quitting."

"A favour?" Huh. That wasn't something he got asked often. The Professor entered his office, placing the basket on his desk then considered her words again. It wasn't just a favour, but two. Two was asking too much if you asked him but the apples on his desk spoke to the girl's own efforts. "That would depend." Mostly on how much energy he'd actually have to extend but this talking through a doorway thing wasn't the way to go about it.

"Why don't you come in and we'll discuss these...ah...favours." What were the odds he'd say no so long as it didn't directly affect him?


OOC: You can post inside now ^^
So he said it would depend, it could of gone worse by now. Like you know, he could of flat out said no without her even having the chance to explain. At least he was going to give her that much, at least.

Once he opened the office, she followed inside and allowed herself a seat on one of the long couches. The smell of lavender tingled up her nose as she began to take in her surroundings. A very usual office, minus the scratching post and that cabinet- or well okay, most Professor's had the one or two odd objects in their office. That clearly had to be his to use..to scratch...strange thought.

"Okay so my first favour isn't really a favour it's just-how to put it- insurance?" she began and then paused to see if he would react before she went on. "Basically I'm going to be one hundred percent honest with you if you promise that what I say now, goes nowhere else and that you won't get me into trouble? It's nothing bad, harmless fun really...well you could say and it's not like you have to say yes."Part one said. Now she would wait before his trust was earned for part two, the actual favour.

That question was usually the opening to rejection. What was one more year...to wait for the appropriate information? It'd have made more sense...but Gabriel had a purpose for the charm now.

"Yes, sir...but I've been wanting to...apply this charm in assisting with...Prefect matters."...which was true. Even if there was a second (more personal) motive.

It might've just been his imagination, but the professor didn't look convinced...and he'd been prepared to do some independent searching for it. However, Professor Quigley surprised him with an invite into his office. SUCCESS!

"Thank you."

Following the man into the room, Gabe first glanced at his surroundings. Human nature. It looked......cozy. Of course, it was hard to NOT look at the cushion and....what appeared to be a scratching post. Gabe...quickly adverted his eyes. He was awkward enough without being caught staring at...odd things.

To distract himself, mostly, he just got on with it. "Sir, I'm interested in the...Protean charm."

"Basically I'm going to be one hundred percent honest with you if you promise that what I say now, goes nowhere else and that you won't get me into trouble? It's nothing bad, harmless fun really...well you could say and it's not like you have to say yes."Part one said. Now she would wait before his trust was earned for part two, the actual favour.


Instead of joining her over by the couches, Maddox flopped into his own chair at his desk, kicked his feet up and levitated an apple over to himself. Perfectly comfortable, he was now prepared to listen to these 'favours'--one of which, incidentally, wasn't a favour but...insurance?

...Right.

Keeping it to himself, not leaving here...was she talking about informing others? Crunch. He'd have to go find them first, then if despite what she was saying, it turned out it was actually a horrid idea then he'd be expected to do something about it. Eh, maybe he didn't want to hear afterall. This sounded like a lot of work. So much more work than keeping it to himself. Kid was a Gryffindor...what's the worst that could happen. Crunch.

"Sure." He finally replied, his shoulders raising in a casual if not somewhat lazy shrug. Though maybe he didn't want her being honest in case it meant him having to be responsible. Oh well. Cross that bridge if they get their...or turn around and find another way across. There was always that route.

SPOILER!!: Gabe

"Yes, sir...but I've been wanting to...apply this charm in assisting with...Prefect matters."...which was true. Even if there was a second (more personal) motive.

It might've just been his imagination, but the professor didn't look convinced...and he'd been prepared to do some independent searching for it. However, Professor Quigley surprised him with an invite into his office. SUCCESS!

"Thank you."

Following the man into the room, Gabe first glanced at his surroundings. Human nature. It looked......cozy. Of course, it was hard to NOT look at the cushion and....what appeared to be a scratching post. Gabe...quickly adverted his eyes. He was awkward enough without being caught staring at...odd things.

To distract himself, mostly, he just got on with it. "Sir, I'm interested in the...Protean charm."


The Professor might have waved him off then, unconcerned as to the reason he wanted to learn this advanced magic on the grounds he couldn't be bothered to listen but then the Prefect shut up and came in. Look at that, he didn't even have to ask. That worked out brilliantly.

And he was staring...at the cushion and post. Maddox cleared his throat. "Have a seat Mister Banner." He didn't have to stand there. They wouldn't be running out of chairs any time soon, guaranteed.

The Professor settled in his own chair and gave the boy another once over. "Protean Charm..." The boy had mentioned it being useful with Prefecting duties and he could hardly disagree considering they were in different common rooms and locations half the time. "We can go over that, yes. Did you have any items in mind?" To cast on he meant. Keep it uniform, it looked cooler that way. How tacky would it be if they all sported a different item for their communication. Disorganization. Not that he struck him as the disorganized type per say.

Did Mister Bastion know how juicy it was? Simply superb. Almost made him forget about that book he'd been looking for earlier...which reminded him...he still had to find it.

Eh, that'd get done eventually.

The boy's question had him leaning forward with a curious if not suspicious brow raised. He...wanted him...to teach him...to be an animagus?

Er..."This seems more like a question to be brought to Professor Bellaire, wouldn't you agree?" Maddox wasn't aware of the young Slytherin's prior interactions with the sour woman but he wasn't trying to step on toes or ruin anyone's future. "As you know, animagus training falls under the discipline of Transfiguration." He continued carefully before allowing himself another bite.

Transfiguration, horrible subject that.



Maddox placed the plate of cookies and brownies on the small coffee table over by the couches before gesturing to the woman to have a seat. "Ah...yeah, they mentioned that." Her being a cat lover. "And I believe I got a front row seat myself." There really wasn't much else to think when a woman had you rubbing against her face while she spoke to you like you were 5.

The man still seemed somewhat distracted, even as he leaned against his desk. It could have been nothing but his nose was acting up even more than it should have. He was almost sure he could smell...well...cat. Odd, yes but it wasn't a scent that greeted him often in his office thanks to the charms put in place but...it wasn't possible. There was no catnip, there were no cats. Maddox found himself rubbing at his nose, wondering if maybe it was going out of sorts. "Really?" He had to try focusing on the conversation. "What do they have to do with Divination?" He had NO idea. The man continued rubbing at his nose for another moment before shrugging. "Don't worry about it. No hard feelings." In truth, he was already over it.

But then he heard a soft scuffle sound coming from her bag. Blue eyes darted to it, locking on as she began some high pitched squealing. Ow. Aha, so he HADN'T been going crazy, not on either account. There was a cat and there was catnip. Immediately Maddox flicked his wand and the cabinet by the cupboard swung open. "If you could be so kind as to store it in there." Sealed to keep all scents inside; he didn't fancy being distracted. "Thank you." Later, they could be enjoyed.



Gregoire figured this question would be asked. Which is why, he came prepared. With the apple of course as well.

"Yes, I knew it was considered Transfiguration, but I'm not entirely sure Professor Bellaire is an Animagus like yourself. I'd much prefer to learn from an Animagus than a Professor who isn't one." Which was entirely true...he'd rather learn from an Animagus. "Also even though she is the Transfiguration Professor, she..." Inserts clever lie "...Knows that Transfiguration isn't my strongest subject. She would think that I'm not ready to become an Animagus." Let that sink in a bit. "But obviously someone like yourself is more than capable of teaching me." The dirty blonde had some buttering up to do.

It also seemed like the Professor had lost something by the looks of his eyes and how the office was somewhat a bit messy. Not like stuff was thrown around in a rage, or swept away by a tornado. More of things didn't look like they belong where they were currently. This was the perfect opportunity to butter up the Professor more. With his best semi-concerned, semi-wondering face, Gregoire asked "Are you missing something Professor?"

There, this should help with the decision.

If he'd been caught staring, Gabriel didn't know...and he tried to play it off, accordingly. Not convincingly, mind...but the attempt was made, nonetheless. Just minding his own business...

...and...about the 'items' to be charmed...

"I want to try and...take it a step further."...because Gabe had done his homework here. He'd read about the charm in use; the coins from the Potter days and the theories about Voldemort's Dark Mark. Any changes to the original item would them be spread throughout the lot. It was a fascinating concept. "From what I've read, the Protean charm's basic function is to link one item to another...and that got me thinking about the nature of the items that are linked. What...would be the limit here?" See, stuttering and fumbling words ceased to be a thing when he really got into the subject matter. "Like a piece of parchment, for example. Would writing on the original piece translate the message throughout the lot?"

He'd forgotten to be shy, apparently.

A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.

Best to get it over and done with so they could both move on. Naturally being stared in the eye he stared back but it didn't last long before Kevin averted his own gaze. Huh. They were getting somewhere.

The widest grin spread across the Charms Professor's face, showcasing her unusually large canines. "Good morning to you too, Mister Hirase." See how pleasant greetings could be? And look at that, the boy really WAS learning. Instead of lashing out, he took the time to calm down before letting his mouth get him into trouble.

Maddox stepped aside, gesturing for him to enter. "Come on in."
He had never seen him smile or grin ...whatever he was doing... like that before so when Kevin saw the large canine teeth he raised an eyebrow. He walked past the man and in to his office, not really paying attention to his surroundings because an office was an office. And from the first look this one was just as boring looking. "What happened to your teeth? They look weird" says the one with the different eye colors*.

Looking at the chair in front of the desk and then at the long couch before making a decision and sat down on the couch. Much more comfortable. He kicked off his shoes and placed his legs on the couch like he would whenever he visited Flamsteeds office. It was a habit of his. "They're cool though, like a vampire!" .....waaait a minute. Were those teeth cat like teeth or vampire like teeth? Suspicious narrowed eyes were casted towards the Professor.

*FYI: Kevin has heterochromia which means his eyes have different colors. His is a mild case as one eye is only lighter brown than the other ^^
