Maiden Mcfarmer had just insulted THE BUNZINATOR™'s shoes?! This was a capital sin punishable and solvable only by a witch's duel.
"I beg your pardon," Annie managed to speak while simultaneously grinding her teeth, "but staring at the sun too long must have damaged your olfactory senses... and quite possibly your entire brain. That can't possibly be your natural hair color or you would NOT have DARED insult my Jimmy Choos."
Did this other... woman... even have shoes on? Something told Annie that this "Maidee" would be one to forget proper footwear. Quote:

Had someone told Gabriella back then that Annie would turn out to be Hogwarts next Herbology professor, she'd had sent them straight to the Healer with claims they'd mistakingly consumed a Confusing Concoction.
Nevertheless...Annie was here today, seated at the same table Gabriella was. "Ahh, Herbology. That was always an interesting subject," she commented. "Oh, I'm the new Healer. I fin---..." Gabriella's reply was cut short, for the headmaster was sending the children back to their tables. That meant his speech would begin soon, and the talking would have to cease. She turned her head towards the headmaster and waited for things to get underway. "Ahha," Annie muttered under her breath. So she was the Healer.
Bunz didn't like Healers. Good thing Eleanor had stopped talking for a moment or two. Quote:

COOL!
JD stood up, no that's not tall enough, JD climbed up on his chair.
"AAAAAAAA-CCCCHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
And sneezed.
Whoops.
"Yeah well, hello all, now that I have your attention, shut your Pie-Holes, if you ever want the pie to materialize on this fancy dinnerware." Confident that he had made his impression, he got down
"See if you can improve on that," he muttered to the Headmaster (heh Headmaster Casey,) retaking his seat. Content to sip her water glass and ignore the rest of the student/professor population for the remainder of the feast, Annie did nearly jump, however, at the sound of a loud sneeze.
Pie-holes? Someone was ordering people to shut their pie-holes when he sounded like he needed something to clog up his nose? And why was that?
She finally took a moment to stare at the man who still behaved like a teenager and realized why he seemed a bit familiar. Ahh and then Annie recognized him, her usual evil smirk coming right back.
Mwahahaha. He'd be enjoying that sneeze there for a few more months. Quote:

"Good day, Hogwarts students." That was a very promising start right there. "You may have noticed that I am a new face here at Hogwarts. In fact, you probably have noticed a number of new faces. Such is life, que sera sera, and all that. My name is Gaellen Tate, and I am the Headmaster."
He should probably introduce the new professors.
He didn't know the new professors.
"And here..." he gestured wildly to the table. "Here we have our returning staff, who are eager to help you settle back into your routines, and your new professors, who will require your patience and good will. Feel free to drop by their offices any time you seek council, just as I encourage you to drop by mine." Oh. But don't visit Thomas, because he probably bites... could he say that?
Probably not.
"So... anyway. Welcome back, and welcome for the first time to all the little firsties. I know we had a hard time of it last year, but chin up and steel your spine for another good year. They can't all be cake walks, can they? I sincerely doubt anyone will die this year, so that's already a silver lining. And perhaps you'll actually learn something. I occasionally did."
Chipper enough? What was he talking about?
"Can we eat yet?"
And the food appeared. She turned her attention back to sighing at her empty plate, only half-listening to whoever the Headmaster Tate was.
Headmaster Tate though, hmm? Really? Gaellen Tate. THE GAELLEN TATE from whom she'd received an URGENT OWL and THE GAELLEN TATE whom she was SUPPOSED TO SPEAK TO about a VERY IMPORTANT MATTER RIGHT AWAY and the SAME GAELLEN TATE that WAS NOT PRESENT when she'd SHOWED UP TO SPEAK TO HIM?
Oh. Now Bunz was paying attention. As a matter of fact, she was most definitely trying to make eye contact with THAT GAELLEN TATE right now so she could go SHOUT AT HIM IN THE CORRIDOR shortly.
Yes. And when the food appeared, Bunz did nothing except proceed to cut everything into very small, angry pieces.
