Shifting her position to face the other end of the table more, Issy crossed her legs and leant against the back of her chair.
"Did you manage to salvage anything from your shed, Seren? I had a look earlier when I was out in the grounds. It was worse than I imagined!" Oh, that probably wasn't going to make her feel better.
Seren shook her head, it was a disaster.
"No... not really, a few tins and some tools were salvagable, but aside from that I lost pretty much everything." Everything worthwhile at least.
"I still don't understand who would have set it one fire, or why." Yes the why question was clearly the most important to her. Had she somehow offended somebody?
SPOILER!!: Alyssa

I want to see how the Puffapods are doing. They will be full gro...OH MERLIN... Wait just a minute, Professor, I just remembered something that I was going to plant in the student greenhouse but when all the chaos happened with uh! You know what, I totally forgot about it. Wait just a sec," Alyssa quickly ran off and came skidding to a stop right in front of her.
She held out a pot containing an
orchid plant. "
Would you plant this for me, Professor? I would do it, but the greenhouses are now locked and I can get in. I'm not sure it will survive the trip back to L.A," Alyssa asked the Professor hoping she wouldn't get angry with her for neglecting a plant.
Seren had no idea what the girl was on about, or who this Hermione character was, so she simply sat there, smiling politely.
MERLIN! What was with these students and plucking gifts and things out of thin air? It was amazing how Alyssa was there one second, gone the next, and then back again!
"I see..." she mused, still getting over the shock of what had just happened.
Plant it FOR her. Honestly, Hufflepuffs should work on their organisational skills. But as Seren eyed the plant, she figured she couldn't let it suffer all because a Hufflepuff couldn't keep track of a calendar.
"Just this once, though in the future, please do try to manage your time more effectively."
Well.. at least she could use her new gloves.
SPOILER!!: Ryan

"Ahh, of course I can completely understand that." After all she mixed business and pleasure on a daily basis, there was nothing she would rather do than study and teach herbology.
Oh? Another gift? For her?
Well wasn't she just little Miss Popular today.
"Thank you Ryan, it's lovely. I promise I'll take good care of it." SPOILER!!: Dash

"I guess so. Think I may have misplaced some books." No. He didn't. Scabior didn't misplace anything. "But really, nothing really." He was just that lucky...minus his missing books, which really could just be reordered.
Kurumi had appeared at the table offering cookies like she had in the beginning of the term. Of course then Dash had assumed she was trying to get on the Professors good side. Now...he didn't know what to think. He simply nodded at the reveal of the cookies.
He wasn't going to actually eat them.
Dash would have expected that to be enough. Kurumi would leave or speak to other professors, but instead she addressed him.....with the oddest question.
He simply raised a brow at her but before he could really get any words out, Hecate had interrupted.
"I-" He paused, resisting the urge to smirk at the obvious anger in Hecate's words. "It's alright Lafay." He shrugged. Really, it didn't bother him at all.
"Miss Hollingberry. I am a Professor. My job here is to teach students to the best of my ability, not to pick and choose which students I like and dislike. That being said, I do not dislike you." There. Now she could go back to her table.
She paused a moment while Hecate and Dash addressed Kurumi. That poor girl, surely Hecate could have been nicer. Seren resisted the urge to comfort the girl in any way... and at least Dash didn't tear her to peices.
"Oh of course I am."
Did he honestly think she would be scared off with a little fire and ice? No... there was no way she was going to give up on her teaching career simply because she'd had a bad year.
"No, I'll be here for a while yet, you're not planning on leaving us are you?" Seeing as he asked, she would do the same.

Not to mention that he had some special people to say goodbyes to. ''My professors!!'' he exclaimed with a big smile as he stopped right before the table where he could see everyone. Eh? The Tatertot would not kick him away, right? Or he could try but he was not leaving without saying his goodbyes to his ladies professors. Looking at them in general first he eyed Bentley, Hadley and of course Lafay. Giving them each a warm smile he nodded.
''I just came to say to goodbye. I did love the every moment in your classes regardless of the problems i caused for you. I apologise for them in advance. And...well...thank you for your contributions with bringing me to who i am right now.''
Seren greeted the Lion with a nod and a bright smile. It was sweet on him to consider them, and his little speech almost brougth tears to her eyes. ALMOST. But not quite. After all she'd only been teaching for two years, so while she would miss the Gryffindor and his boisterous personality, she wasn't going to cry.
"Thank you Carter, over the last two years I've been thoroughly entertained by your antics, and I appreciate everything you ahev done for me personally, and for your efforts in class. I am sure that wherever your path takes you, that you will be successful in your endeavours, and I wish you all the very best of luck for the future."
Ok... maybe she would shed a tear. Later.

Looking over at the Gryffindor table, Seren was amused and confused. What was so funny? and why wasn't she a part of it?

Now the giggles were beginning to come from the other side of the Great Hall, at the Slytherin table.
One second, she was sitting there, observing the students at the Gryffindor table, and then the next second she was being covered by something large and green. How in the name of bouncing blueberries had the banners come off?!
Seren flailed slightly, pulling off the sheet of green and silver fabric from over her head, letting it drape over the table and on top of her gifts.
