It was always fun when someone you knew already joined the staff.

"Hello, Javier!" Tapio noticed his colleague on the other side arrive and greet one of the new professors. Looking from Javier to Kennedy Escalante, he observed, "I take it you two know each other?"

How old are your children, Tapio?” he asked curiously as he leaned his chin on the back of his hand.

Absolutely! Vienna is a wonderful place to visit any time of the year. My children? Oh, Frasier is 22 now, and Acton is 20. They think themselves quite grownup and independent now, though they don't always know as much as they think they do. They grow up so fast--relish all the time you have to spend with yours while you can."[/b]

Tapio followed Simon's gaze in time to see Peeves lob what looked like a water balloon at one of the students. What on earth was going on? It still rather amazed Tapio that Peeves was allowed as much license at Hogwarts as he was, but his antics seemed to be toloerated all around. Though he usually did not disrupt really important occasions, like the Start of Term Feast. "Simon? It looks like trouble over at your House's table, maybe you should go over and take a look." For Tapio also noticed a strange looking basket over there that was attracting a lot of attention from the students. Really, was it too muc to ask for to get through the first dinner of the term without all chaos breaking loose?
