The blonde instictively closed her eyes for a moment as she turned, hoping to Merlin that her other friend hadn't gone off and quit her post over the summer (since Callie had been pretty unreachable over the break) but when the woman spoke Elwood's eyes shot open and her mouth broke into a wide smile.

"Media, you've been practicing!" The Divination Professor squeeled excitedly to her best friend and grabbed her into a quick little hug. When she pulled back her eyes naturally went to the brunette's outfit. "And don't you look pretty tonight? Glad to be back?"

Medea giggled softly, half hugging her friend back. Such a weird angle. "I haff." And the accent was back in full. She was only planning on trying at it during lessons anyhow. Perhaps eventually, she wouldn't even need to try.

"Oh, thank you. And you." she smiled. Board of Governors here and all. Though she did love the orange Callie was wearing. Taking a deep breath, the dark haired professor looked out to the students momentarily, shrugging her shoulders up. "Actually, this summer could haff ended sooner."

So yes. Definitely glad to be back.

He shook his head but he was chuckling lightly as he walked. Never in a million years had he thought this was how his first day at his first real job was going to be.

Halfway to the staff table and a few sparks emitted from his wand and he gave it another shake. "Come on." he muttered. The last thing he needed was to sit up there amongst his fellow colleagues, dripping water all over the place.

He was almost at the table when he felt a small, faint breeze of warm air surround him and he let a sigh of relief. Things would be alright. Except they weren't because while he managed to get most of himself dried, by the time he got to his chair, his hair and shirt were still a little wet.

Oh dear...

It was the sparks of the wand that caught her attention, and she'd thought it was student already causing trouble, but with one glance lowered her suspicions. Was it already storming outside?

She almost had to make a double take.

Medea could've sworn there would have been no greeting in return but a nod, but what do you know? Things were looking up then, weren't they? "How vos your summer?" she asked, pouring herself a glass of water.

Drip. Step. Drip. Step.

She paused at the Ravenclaw table to see if those kids from the Food Trolley were Ravenclaws or hat munchers, then carried on towards the table.

Drip drop. Step. Drip drop step screeeeeeeeeech.

Because most everyone was there, and it was too tempting not to, Lainey BOPPED everyone's head down the line of present Professors. Like duck, duck, goose Staff Table style. BOP. BOP. BOP. BOP.

FINALLY, the soppy ex-professors, ex-auror, current VP of BoG arrived at her chair. Beside Rae. Sup, Rae.

She lined the trunk up with the back of her assigned and usual chair by Rae, climbed on top of it, then went over the TOP of her high back chair to take her seat.

"Well. I lost my food." So that sucked.

If that man with the wet hair and shirt hadn't sat down already, she would have suspected that loud screech was coming from him. Or, you know, someone had a dying owl in the great hall, but that was less likely. Watching the woman make her way up to the staff table, gaze bouncing back and forth from her to the trunk, it finally lingered on the trunk...

Her expression was slowly morphing into a cringe...LDflsdkf FLINCH! Something touched her head!

Blink! Blink blink. When did the woman get BEHIND her? Mother of pearl, that trunk was evil.

SPOILER!!: Miss Headmistress

The clear ringing brought her attention to the Headmistress, leaning back in her seat so the others next to her were able to see without craning their necks too much. She'd recognized Mister Lagerty, though it was nice to have names to faces with their other three guests. Medea smiled and started to clap, glancing across the hall to all the students. A big round of applause, yes?

SPOILER!!: Miss Headmistress Quote: Originally Posted by BanaBatGirl Annie stood and tapped her wand on her goblet, sending a clear ringing sound throughout the hall. She waited for absolute silence and, once she had it, began the traditional start-of-term feast. "Greetings, students, professors, and visitors. Welcome to, or back to, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I am your new Headmistress, Anastasia Truebridge." The Headmistress flashed a brilliant smile at all the eyes focused on her. "This year, as you have surely noticed, brings a great many changes to Hogwarts. We have new staff members in our midst, myself included; new students, and new student leaders as well. Please welcome your peers with open hearts and allow me to take a moment to welcome our esteemed guests back to Hogwarts." She looked to the Board, who knew to stand when their names were called. "Joining us at the feast tonight is the Hogwarts Board of Governors. Board President and former Headmistress Cassandra Rae-Branxton; Board Vice President and former Professor Anjelica Lainey; Board Secretary and Senior Undersecretary to the Minister of Magica Ian Amoroso; and Board Treasurer and Three Broomsticks Owner Harold Lagerty. Please welcome these wonderful guests, who make the funding and running of Hogwarts a possibility, with a round of applause." Anastasia waited for the students to greet the board appropriately and, in the meantime, snagged a drink of water. The clear ringing brought her attention to the Headmistress, leaning back in her seat so the others next to her were able to see without craning their necks too much.
