"It's truly a pleasure being taught by you sir" she said with a small pout. He certainly didn't have a lot to say on the matter.
Ok so the Headmaster had calmed down from that little violent outburst. Thankfully. Because quite frankly that was scary enough. And he was being all sympathetic and stuff, which Trixie appreciated. "Well thank you anyway" she smiled softly albeit weakly. "And it's been a pleasure being at Hogwarts this term" she informed him.
"You get stronger." Truebridge answered simply. "You learn."
There was not much more to say. Ethan Truebridge was different. He always had been. And while he was very fond of his students, expressing that wasn't easy. He did it through his actions and through helping them more than through his words.

"Leaving, sir?" he finally murmured, teeth catching on the corner of his lip. "For... for good, you mean?"
That was just... well. Depressing. There weren't many professors left from when he'd first started here. And Cairo? Was that where Cope was? He knew it was Egypt, but he didn't know exactly where...
"I suppose so." Truebridge agreed quietly.
Guilt was a foreign thing to him, so he didn't quite recognise it for what it was. Though considering he tended not to do things for himself, it was about time that he did. He couldn't feel bad about moving on with his life.
"You can write. I'd write back." Of course.
... and he was hungry. Surely he would get a chance to eat?
