Anyway. She shook his hand with an excited smile of her own. "There's no need to worry about conditions regarding the needs of your family, Sabel. My own family mostly lives at a small cottage in Hogsmeade. A friend of mine sold it to me when he heard I was becoming Headmistress." She shrugged slightly. "Surely you don't think all of us stay at the castle at all times, do you? Most have a direct floo to their families in their own office. I'm sure you'd be able to set that up, as long as you can be here to teach your lessons and hold your office hours."

She smiled again and gathered up her purse. "We'll be in touch, Sabel. I daresay you can find Sander now, if he's not already on his way to you." And with that, she headed for the door.


The woman seemed to have quite the reputable sources, and Sabel couldn't help but wonder if Sander was one such person. Not so much a tourist, as a procurer of information. He'd have to ask.

For the moment, he found the heat of embarrassment rushing to color his cheeks. He had thought that the Professors stayed at the castle on a permanent basis, with only a few breaks here and there to see loved ones or friends outside. In his day, they had always been on hand. But then, in his day, he'd been naive and narrow-visioned.

It was an overwhelming relief, that he wouldn't have to bargain for time with his family. And that relief showed clearly in the genuine smile that took hold. "Of course, I would be. And thank you, very much."

He rose to his feet as the Headmistress prepared to leave. "I look forward to it, Ms. Truebridge."

Sabel stayed standing until she was gone from the Three Broomsticks. As soon as the door closed behind her, Sabel dropped back into his seat, scrubbing his hands over his face and back through his hair as he let out the breath he had desperately been holding in.

Had that seriously just happened?
