Rhodes was trying her hardest, her absolute hardest not to burst out laughing, but it really was just too funny. Did the Healer REALLY think she would light someone on fire? During class? And did she really think that, if Romulus was lit on fire, he wouldn't be sent to the Hospital Wing to get treated? Would she still have been allowed in Hogwarts if she was some crazy pyromaniac who lit people on FIRE!?
She didn't know the Headmistress, but from the few times she had seen her at the opening and closing feasts, it didn't seem like she was the type of person who would tolerate that kind of stuff.
"I didn't really light him on fire." A few small giggles escaped from her mouth, but she quickly clasped her hands over it to stop them. Not a good thing, laughing at a time like this. "I mean.. well.. I kind of blew fire on him. But it didn't hurt him and the Professor was in the room while I did it. And it was part of the assignment!" She was so going to tell Romulus about this.
Blowing fire on students was part of an assignment? What kind of crazy professor had taken over once Hecate left? Sure, everyone knew the obsession her friend had with setting others on fire, but she never taught the students how to do it. That was just insane.
And really? Did Rhodes really find this situation
funny? Was she really that stupid that she would laugh about this in front of her Head of House, who also happens to be the older cousin of the boy she was talking about.
"I wouldn't be laughing if I were you Miss Merivel. Lesson or not, I do not approve of setting others on fire." Or in this case, blowing fire at others.
"Joke about something like this again young lady and you just might find yourself in detention." Cece was so going to have to have a talk with this new professor.
"Now tell me, other than trying to set my family members on fire, how are you getting along here?"

When Tillstorm arrived, Theo stood up sharply, and sheeeeeeeesh, hello to you too.
He reluctantly entered the office first but stood very close to the door once he was inside. He tapped his fingers against his legs and waited....
Aaaaaaand he cleared his throat once... or twice, but stopped himself from going for a third.

The blond stood and followed behind Theo glancing back at West who joined them. The captain seemed to be all relaxed, she wanted to be like that, too. Because what a worse thing that could happen, yea? Actually, she didn't want to think about that.
Into the office she went and stood on the opposite side of the door from Theo. Ahem. She debated crossing her arms but then decided against it and left them limb on both her sides. She might need them for demonstration or dramatic effect if she was to explain something.

With Theo having entered and stood on one side of the door and Cassia at the other, West walked in with plenty of swagger, almost giving the impression that they were his 'heavies' and he had in fact arranged for the pair of them to enter first and flank the doorway. Ludicrous though. That wasn't the case of course, not heavies, but best friends, and it was simply that West's confidence brought him to stand in front of Tillstorm's desk instead of slinking around the edges of the room. He didn't sit, rather waiting for her to tell him to, but neither did he hover.
He simply stood by the center chair, gave Tillstorm a quietly respectful look, and then turned to glance at Theo and Cassia, giving them each an encouraging nod as if to say yes its safe, come over here now. Sooner they did, the sooner they could all sit and get this whole thing over with.
Once the three students had entered the office, Cece shut the door.
"Go ahead and have a seat," she said as she herself sat down behind her desk. " She didn't care what order they sat in or who sat next to who, just as long as they all sat.
Not wanting to waste any time she got straight to the point of this meeting.
"So which one of you wants to start by telling me why I told you to meet me here today?" That's right, no small talk. Straight to business.
OOC: Will respond to the rest of you later tonight.
