Not saying anything to either of them she moved on when she seen William a couple seats away. And of course, there was commotion at the staff table too. Poor Willy had a lap full of... well what exactly he had a lap full of she wasn't sure. What she was sure of though was it had to be the handy work of I'm still a kid Olly.
"You really do need to find better friends." She was tempted to take out her wand to dry his pants but figured that would only embarrass him even more than he probably already was having to have the healer dry your pants for you in public like this. Instead she would let the woman sitting next to him help. She would however have a little talk with him later about his choice in friends.
And then there was a man sitting next to him on the opposite side... offering his hand to shake. Really? Could he not see that Willy and the other professor had just been doused with something? Now probably wasn't the best time for introductions.
Observant one he was now wasn't he. Quote:

And that was final.
Apparently it was grand luck that her office was situated on the first floor. Could one imagine if she were up on the fifth or seventh?
Moving around to her seat, pace slowing considerably, Medea finally looked up to scan the table she was to sit at. Pink bubbles. A ladybug from the looks of it. And oh did it get looks from Medea as she just as slowly sat in her seat next to a blond woman. Perhaps it was best she did come in late. Quote:

And even if that was the case, which it wasn't!, he had an excuse all ready to use. Did they actually expect him to arrive on time, or early even? His hut was like..fifty miles away from the castle! And not being one of the quickest walkers, it would take him a good amount of time to get himself there. But luckily, as he FINALLY arrived in the Great Hall, one look around the room and the lack of food on the tables told him that he wasn't even late. So there was no need for his excuse.
Shoving his hands into his pockets, he made his way up to the staff dais, nodding his head at the students and other staff members he passed before throwing himself down in his seat. He tried his best to ignore the going ons around him, but with the bubbles, and Oliver down at the other end singing his own rendition of the school song, not even using his mouth, he was finding that very difficult to do.
Oh, look. The Headmaster was sitting on a THRONE! That would hold his attention for a little while. Quote:

"Hello," he greeted Seren with a nice smile, his eyes twinkling at the flowers. Heh. Wonder what would happen if some lovely bees started pollinating those flowers? Hmm?
Will was about to comment on her lovely hairdo when he noticed Hecate and Dash arriving. He shut up quickly enough and merely nodded to the other former Slytherins, turning his attention toward the other end of the table instead. He didn't want to be caught staring when Dash took a drink, after all. Smirk.
Olly arrived next and Willy's smirk just broadened at the sight of his oldest friend, despite the head flick and all. Will casually rested his elbow on the table, his hand covering his mouth as Oliver sat down jusssssst in time.
PERFECT. "Making death threats already?" he got out in between his half-covered guffaws. "Oliver Jenkins. What kind of example are you setting for our precious students?" William gestured out toward the House tables and continued smirking, hardly noticing who sat down next.
"Hello," he turned toward the woman beside him, who was unfortunately not sitting on his other side. Had she been to his right, she could have functioned as some sort of human shield... but alas.....
WHOA WAIT. Will did a double take. Was that....? No, it couldn't be. "Thea?" he muttered in surprise. "Well I'll be!"
NEW teachers she nodded in there direction! They looked nice that was good wasn't it ''Hello,'' she gave a slight nod and smiled she didn't know what else to do with out embaressing herself SPOILER!!: Headmaster Quote:

Neither of his nearest neighbors were yet at their seats, and Tate nodded politely to Seren and Althea a few seats down on each side. Hmm. His stomach was growling. Short speech on the menu.
The Headmaster Eeep!! she smiled ''Good day, Headmaster Tate,'' she smiled nervously! And totally froze she was sooo afraid any minute she would just collapse onto the table it was the worst feeling any person could ever have... EVER SPOILER!!: Mrs Charms Quote:

Oh.
Familiar faces. New faces. But familar. Not that Althea Schirmer said hello. She simply sat, supposing that hellos would be appropriate after the near-yelling and bodily... err... noises, were finished with.
Ahem. She did manage to look disapproving though.
''Hello Proffeser Schirmer, Did you have a good summer,'' she remebered just by looking at her that she was at kings cross and at the train! She didn't belong there it was very weird when she saw her in the train.... Really weird in fact she was a teacher she wasn't supposed to have a life out of Hogwarts!!!! SPOILER!!: Proffeser Hadley Quote:

Or maybe put it in slow motion, as the Arithmancy Professor walked slowly up the way from the entrance hall. Though she did spare some glances at her Hufflepuffs on her walk up to the staff dais to check on them behaving and scope out the new ones.
Ah, some of the professors had already beaten her to the dais, but that one ... seemed shady over there by the Healer's chair. Did he just .... ? Squinting up at the table, she frowned as he dropped something in the healer's goblet and then followed the gentlemen to where he was seated. If there was going to be some poisoning at the feast, at least she knew who was guilty.
Couple more steps.
Brushing a strand behind her ear, she gave a smile toward Seren and even Dash - pleased the History professor had decided to return despite his attitude - and finally took her customary seat. Second from the end. Hazel eyes on the guy who may have attempted to poison the new healer, for some unknown reason.
The guy who was sitting next to her. Who seemed to have ... no that wasn't a fart, she was sure of it.
"That's what you get for attempting to poison someone." Fina said nonchalantly, taking a quiet sip from her own goblet and fixing her eyes back on her house table. ''Good day Proffeser,'' she smiled, never had seen her in a while she wasn't on the train nor kings cross... well it was possible she was but she never saw her.. If not how'd she get to Hogwarts??? Why were teachers mysterious so many questions...... SPOILER!!: Proffeser Roslund Quote:

Sliding into his seat next to Josephina he greeted her "Good evening, Josephina. How was your break?" Taking note of the slight tanned skin he enquired "Have you been to a warmer place than Scotland recently?"
Deciding to be polite and mannered he turned to the man on his other side (WWW) and offered out his hand "Hello, I don't believe we've met? I'm Edvard Roslund, Astronomy." ''Hello Proffeser Roslund,'' NOW she had seen him in Kings cross and in the train... he was a queer character wasn't he? SPOILER!!: Proffeser Lafay Quote:
Originally Posted by Droo Hecate had been sitting at her seat, fork in hand and her sparkling emerald ring on her ring finger. Yes. She wasn't going to hide it anymore. An engagement was a happy thing...
She just didn't like all the attention.
This would be a good year. A very good year. There were no more obstacles. She made sure of that.
Fork in her hand, moving around her peas on the table. She was here, yes. But her mind was elsewhere.
LuLu really was nosey and couldn't help but notice the ring on Lafays fingure her eyes widened... Lafay getting married... WHAT O______O ''Hello Proffeser Lafay,'' she smiled and walked on WHAT W-what? what? Oh Merlin SPOILER!!: Proffeser Bently Quote:
Originally Posted by Hera Bouncing into the Great Hall with a great deal of exuberance, Seren managed to somehow, 1. not knock anyone over, 2. not trip over and 3. not squeal in delight... yet. Though seeing as the night was young, anything could happen.
If there was anything that made her nervous, it was her new role in the school. What with the absence of Kimber, she had been asked to step up to the plate and fill the role of Gryffindor Head of House, which was a great honour indeed. The only thing that Seren found remotely distressing about the idea was seeing the students reactions. Namely the Ravenclaws, who she had grown so close to over the last couple of years, and also the Gryffindors. At any rate it wasn't going to be a boring night... or a boring term at that.
Having made it to the dais, Seren walked along the long staff table, doing a double-take as she went. A new colleague. Smiling brightly, and fidgetting with one of the flowers in her hair which was threatening to escape, Seren offered the man a small node, "Welcome..." was all she could manage. Was it just her? or did this man look rather familiar?
Deciding it would be rude to linger and stare, Seren continued down the table to her seat and plopped herself into it gently.
LuLu smiled at Proffeser Bently she was the kind one ''Hello Proffeser Bently good summer,'' she asked ''Congrats on head of house,'' she just had to say it before she'd forget which would be very likely
---
She looked at all the students all happy well all the ones that she could see anyway that seemed a great feeling even standing there for a second! To bad she probably was never greeting them ever again she hated the chaos it was just to much for her.... Especially with pushing and stuff it was like the were all superstars and like everyone wanted their autograph! Was this what muggles were like to their teachers? Did they do this aswell? She didn't really want to know she wanted to accept that it was normel even if it wasn't...
