Catching Chad's smile, Kimber raised her glass at him and let her eyes linger. She didn't turn around again until she heard Jeremy say her name.
The only way Jeremy reacted to her comment was by raising his eyebrows at her hostility towards the absent professor. He WAS missing his other neighbor, however. Especially since his other one was a little too occupied by other....things. The 33 year old pointedly refrained from saying anything more on that matter but rather turned to the woman at the very end of the Staff Table. Their end of the Staff Table of course, the better end.
Heh. Quote:

Because you could bet she wasn't going to let them get the better of her. Some sort of cushioning charm would do the trick.
Good thing, Isabelle was there to keep him entertained for the time being. N'aww, they didn't repent? Maybe she should just throw them AWAY and not banish them into the back of her closet.
"For a while?!" Jeremy echoed with a rather incredulous look. He would never ever wear them again after what they had done to her feet. Though, he wouldn't wear them in the first place. Obviously.

Even though some part of him - some very dark and irritating part he hardly ever let show - wanted him to say something like 'yesterday, apparently' he only smiled softly at her and with an amused shrug he said,
"I guess not." Returning her squeeze of his hand under the table he simply smiled at her for a moment before turning his attention back to the woman to his other side.

"Well I can vouch for the fact Madam Malkin's is a dangerous shop for a woman with a full purse. Luckily I had the husband equivalent of your brother to give me a glare last time I was in there." And it wasn't even her she was buying for. "I hope he made it out intact?" she asked, eyes sparkling cheekily.
He buried his face in his hands in mock-exasperation as she admitted to having similar tendencies like Alysson.
"Oh no, here I am, practically fleeing from my sister's constant excessive shopping sprees and now I meet you!" He pretended to inch away from her - automatically closer to Kimber - glancing back up at Isabelle with an amused grin.
"What did I do wrong to deserve this, hmm?" Jeremy teased before adding with a 'sympathetic' look on his face,
"I do feel for your husband. And yes, Coop made it out alive. Barely." Or something.
Heh. Quote:

"It's nice to meet you, Professor?" she let her statement fade out as in the form of a question. "And what do you teach sir?" she said with a slight nod of courtesy in his way.
There, so she WAS handing the cups out because who was he to just get up and get one himself, that would have been...not appropriate. In his eyes anyhow.
"Zookara. And I'm teaching Muggle Studies." Jeremy finished the sentence for her with a smile, taking the offered coffee cup from her which immediately turned the teal. How nice.
Placing the cup onto the table next to his still empty - when were they finally getting food?! He was starving! - plate he directed his attention back at the Ravenclaw girl.
"Nice to meet you too. I'm sorry, I'm afraid I didn't catch your name." He admitted after a short moment of contemplation of whether or not he was supposed to recognize her from class, which he didn't.

Well fine then ... Taking a quick sip of pumpkin juice, she looked back at him and then raised her eyebrows in unison several times rather quickly at him ... 
Ooooh, so she had noticed him.
Heh. Reaching for his glass he raised it in a rather exaggerated way of toasting with a grin before taking a sip. Only to almost choke on said sip as he very uncharacteristically snorted into his drink at Fina's next move. Coughing a couple of times, he couldn't help but continue to chuckle which didn't exactly do any good to the few drops of pumpkin juice which had somehow ended up in his trachea.
After finally having managed to regain a normal pace of breathing and gotten a grip of himself, he rolled his eyes at her with a still highly amused grin plastered across his face. Silly Fina.
In reply to her little eyebrow-show he grinned before flapping his arms vigorously at his sides to show his excitement. 
Not really. xD Quote:

Kurumi! He caught her wave and immediately returned it with a grin for the young Gryffindor girl. And were those cookies?! :O However he wasn't sure who they were for so he couldn't exactly just levitate one onto his plate. And getting up to ask was not an option, he was feeling lazy at the moment.

But she didn't, she sat down and took out a mirror... She needed to touch up her lipstick, it was nearly gone.
And there was his other neighbor. Finally. It WAS quite unlike Hecate to be late, not that she really was but she was definitely lat
er than most of the other staff.
"Hello to you too, Hecate. I hope you had a good summer?" Jeremy greeted the woman with a slight hint of pointed sarcasm accompanying his tones at her lack of greeting.
...she was however busy reapplying lipstick? Was this somehow related to why she was late?
