No. Nothing sprang to mind.

Giving the Charms Prof a small smile she stepped past him and inside the office before she spoke. "I couldn't exactly deny my Head of House a meeting now could I? " she offered lightly, even adding a small laugh to boot. Perhaps she could put the seemingly anxious man at ease?

Doubtful. The Umbridge kids didn't tend to put much of anyone at ease, really. Sad, that was. They were both lovely children. Obviously. ...not that many people knew the other half of the twins anyway.

Whatever.

The blonde let her eyes sweep the room as she made her way to a chair. "So what's up, sir? Did I do something wrong? I haven't set A N Y T H I N G on fire. I haven't even spoken to people I don't like. Or maybe I WON something? Did I win something Professor Marchand? Is it money? Or an award of some kind? For my awesomeness? "

Yeah. She was rambling a bit, but MERLIN this was more than a little awkward, wasn't it?! Finally the blonde clamped her mouth shut and WAITED for the man to explain.

It would totally be awesome if she had won something though.

For real.

Gaston took a deep breath as he followed Miss Umbridge into his office and closed the door behind him. So far, so good. The girl had greeted him politely and even smiled at him. Did he dare to hope she might forgive him? Maybe this would go better than he thought. "Fair point, Miss Umbridge," he said with a slight chuckle, though he wouldn't have been surprised if she'd denied him, Head of House or not.

He took his seat in the larger leather chair on the opposite side of the desk, and no sooner that he had that the black-and-white Persian cat laying on the cat condo behind him looked up, eyes darting from him to the Gryffindor girl,
with an inquisitive meow. He gave her a little pat on the head but not much;
he had other matters to attend to right now.

Gaston opened his mouth to explain why he'd summoned the girl, but she started rambling before he had the chance. A fresh pang of guilt gripped him.
He couldn't exactly blame her for thinking she was in trouble, but... Blink, blink. Won something? That was certainly an imaginative idea! He wished he didn't have to dash her hopes, but there was no prize he could offer her... well, except maybe some chocolate but he doubted she'd want it. He knew she had a thing about accepting food. "I'm afraid you haven't won anything, Miss Umbridge," he said, shaking his head, "but you're right on the other count. You aren't in trouble; I just wanted to..." His voice trailed off, and he nervously ran a hand through his hair. This was going to be harder than he thought.

"...to apologize again for taking points from you last term," he forced himself on. "But first I'm going to do what I should've done then and listen to what you have to say." He stiffened, sitting a little straighter as he braced for

So. Much. Stress.

Gaston returned Mr. Bronwyn's smile with a small, slightly sad one of his own as he stepped into the office. He was going to invite the boy to sit down, but it seemed superfluous, as he was already making his way to a seat. Behind him, Phantom jumped down from her cat condo and sauntered over to the Ravenclaw prefect with a loud meow. Gaston laughed a little. "Well, it looks like you've made a friend," he said, taking his seat on the opposite side of the desk.

He listened carefully to the reason for the boy's visit, nodding slightly. "Of course," he said. "Do you already a have a university in mind? Interested in a particular area of study?" Was he asking too many questions? Probably, but the more information he had, the better able to help he'd be.
