"Just myself, unfortunately. I stupidly forgot that the kids would be home and it would be heaving." She sent him a smaller, self-depreciating smile. "I should have come in a few weeks ago and saved myself." Buuuut she hadn't thought of it, and since Blaise had been too old for too many years too count - and she still had a few years before Kailee and her young William were old enough for it.

"You?" That was polite, right?

Man, that smile was endearing. William tried to turn away from it and focus on his supplies. He knew if he got caught up in looking at women, who probably were not interested in looking at him, he'd get distracted and start blushing and dropping things, and then he'd never get out of Diagon Alley during back-to-school season in one piece.

So, he just nodded to her for now, though of course he couldn't ignore her question. "I should have ordered by owl." Yes, he was rusty at this school thing, and he did notice how he'd commandeered her basket with all his supplies. Ooops? "I have to--- er, teach at Hogwarts." Why did that sentence sound so weird? He wasn't being forced into this. He was willingly going back. Or so he kept telling himself. "Kids need parchment, I need ink for marking." Professor stuff. And one could never be prepared enough for absentminded students, especially the ones that were anything like him, who consistently forgot their supplies for class.

With that thought, he contemplated buying a few extra pairs of dragonhide gloves while he was out and about. Merlin knew they WOULD need those.
