"Well it's nice to meet you Sophie, and thanks for the news that I've been a well-received Head of House." She had been a tad nervous taking over the job from Gemma but hopefully Miss Brown was right about the student's reception of her so far. "And I do like those bubbles. Is it Droobles gum?" She hadn't had some of that stuff in quite some time, but they sold it in Honeyduke's and she just may have to pick some up soon. It was an interesting candy. And she was a Ravenclaw fan before she even came to school. "How nice for you then that you were sorted in this House. I never actually attended Hogwarts but I would hope to have been an Eagle myself." Not biased or anything but based on how she viewed herself.
Yes, the rule that some of the younger students had decided to continue abiding where they didn't take their extracurricular classes until their third year, was a fad that continued to happen she saw. "Well that's a shame, I would have loved to have you in class." But it seemed like the girl was still interested, kind of. "Oh you'd still want to join the Spreading the Noble Art Club? Of course you can, I'd encourage it actually." That's the whole point of it really, it was in the name even! "No absolutely, what a great idea Miss Brown! Here I've got an--" she turned around mid-sentence and busied herself with papers on her desk, the door still open. After a second the Divination professor returned with a parchment which she handed the girl. "Here's an application for you. If you just want to fill it out and owl it to me, I'll be in touch with you soon about our first meeting and or assignment."
This was so exciting! Oh, she knew it! "Yeah, it's Droobles! Want some?" Sophie pulled out her package of gum from deep in her robe pockets and extended it to her. "It's okay if you don't but what better way to spread some Ravenclaw cheer, y'know?" she suggested in jest.
...Oh. So she could be the Ravenclaw Head of House and not have been a Ravenclaw herself? That was strange. Sophie eyed the woman curiously, but was relieved to hear that the woman saw herself as Ravenclaw-worthy. "That's good. I thought I'd be a Ravenclaw, too, and here I am, so I'm sure that's where you'd be, too. Where did you go to school, then? Why not here?" Didn't every young witch and wizard know Hogwarts was the best of all time?
Oh. Oh ho ho. The professor thought it was a good idea! She was going to let her join! "Wicked," Sophie murmured, taking the application from Elwood and scrutinizing it. "Thanks for letting me do this. It'll be a cool way to see you around more." Pause. "As Head of House, do you think you'll ever stop by the common room to say hi? Or d'you think you'll try to keep your distance and not cross that weird line between being a teacher versus a friend?" Elwood knew the line she was referring to, certainly. But she seemed... to be the type that would blur the line and be both a teacher and friend and come hang out and be cool with her Ravenclaws.
Then she blurted an idea as it came to her, not waiting for Elwood's reply. "We should have a big Ravenclaw start-of-term hang-out party! Like where everyone comes to the common room at once and gets to hang out and get to know each other and you could be there, too, so we can get to know our leader! I mean, not every Ravenclaw is in the common room at any given point when I'm there, so I don't get to see and know everyone." And she WANTED to know everyone! She wanted to be friends with ALL of Ravenclaw house. All of 'em. Every single one. "I've heard Quidditch parties are fun and bring the house together but that's so far away. Like months, right? Don'tcha think it'd be cool to have us all gather together for the purpose of getting to know each other right from the beginning of the term and have some fun?"
