As you enter the room, the first thing you see in the middle of the room is a hand-made Turkish carpet and nothing else. To the immediate right of the door stands a coat hanger for four coats a time, and you are expected to hang your coat there before fully entering the room. Professor's desk and two chairs in front of it are located at the right end with three pictures hanging from the wall, and his bookcase and 'emergency potions' shelves with a representational potion brewing set are located at the left end of the room. The walls are painted light blue.
The desk and visitors' set look expensive, and they indeed are. They are from genuine mahogany, all cut from the same wood. There is usually a big pile of papers hastily arranged at the farther side of the desk, and you will always see a potion phial and a book on the more organised side. Behind it is his office chair, and in front of it are two comfortable looking armchairs with a coffee table between them. You'll find a bowl of sweets that is filled with cheering up potion that will last for approximately three hours. Go on, take a cherry, apple, orange or lemon flavoured. Be careful not to take the last lemon though, because they are his favourite.
To the right side of the wall behind the desk hangs a picture depicting a Mardin, Midyat house with smiling kids sometimes singing a song and sometimes playing a game. To the left is a painting depicting Afghanistan with an old wizard at the centre of it. He is brewing a mysterious potion and will be more than happy to speak to you in Persian, but he just smiles upon asking about what he is doing. He was a respected wizard of Afghanistan, and Professor Culloden paid a fortune for the painting, so act accordingly. Beneath them in the middle hangs a picture of Borneo rainforests with birds and insects. If you are lucky, you will be treated with a birds lullaby and if you are unlucky, the insects will drill your brains with their buzzing sound.
The middle is only occupied by a handmade Turkish rug. While you may step on it, you will land yourself in detention faster than you can say 'potion' if those shoes are muddy or wet.
At the other end of the room is a bookcase full of books about potions, both muggle and magical plants and animals. Don't be surprised if you see your professor's name on 3-4 of them. Depending on how much he likes you, he may lend them to you.
On the shelves next to the bookcase stands his golden, representational potions brewing set and a few phials full of different potions. Along with the carpet and pictures, the set is his most prized possession.
If you can find him in his office, you are 'okay' to pay a visit.
ZANDER ADAIR WON'T BE FULLY COMFORTABLE WITH CULLODEN UNTIL THE DAY HE DIED. But you didn't hear that from him.... Ahem. Though, Sophie's efforts were truly heroic and admirable. It'd take a lot to budge this opinion. Or at least that's what he was sure of as he made his way alongside Soph.
Merlin, he'd been to the dungeons almost every day for a whole six years now and this place still gave him the creeps. Probably had to do with the temperature dropping like twenty degrees once you entered the place... Or was that just him? Even though the stairs were a pain, Zander preferred the towers over this place any day. No wonder Culloden tried to steal his bed back in third year. Figures. Poor guy probably hated it down here too and no, that was not Zander Adair sympathizing. Merely stating facts.
"You sure he won't be annoyed that he's already got student visitors the first day back?" Because some Professors hated that, namely Wicked Walton circa fourth year. Granted, he had dropped a vase of flowers on the man's floor, but still. Not too happy about the visitor thing. But he was also probably making up excuses at this point. He couldn't help it though, there was something about visiting Culloden that made him uneasy. Especially when it was with Sophie because most of the time she sat back and watched the interactions happen. Too much pressure not to be awkward. Made it ten times more awkward.
Also, fell over could be taken two very different ways. Like fell over in horror. In shock. In death. Lots of things. "I should knock, right?" 'Cause otherwise they might be standing outside for ages (((which didn't sound like a terrible idea, actually))). But he took the initiative and knocked without waiting for Sophie to give him an answer. No turning back now. Let the awkward BEGIN.
[QUOTE=StarShine;11792093]Actually... Cosgrach was only ANXIOUS when the first knock came. He knew Sophie had extra duties now, but she would ALWAYS come visit him after the feast, always, so when she didn't come, he couldn't help but wonder whether he had hurt her in any way. He had been waiting for it, to be honest, so when someone knocked on his door, he quickly drew his wand and opened the door, followed by a QUICK "COME IN!" request.
Let's hear what Sophie was mad at (IF it was her in the first place).
"He'd never be annoyed, he loves us too much," was Soph's response to Zander's uncertainty, and in the next moment after Zander knocked, her words were CONFIRMED.
See, Zander? Did he SEE how quickly Culloden had opened the door to them? He LOVED them.
"You LOVE us," Soph even declared exuberantly to Culloden as she entered the office, tugging Zander in by the hand and leading him over to sit in the chairs across from the professor at his desk, a huge smile on her face. "A visit from the HEAD GIRL AND HEAD BOY. Must be your lucky day." Heheheheeee. Come on, Zander, TEASE HIM, TOO.
Also look out, Zander Adair, because as soon as you sit down, you're gonna get a LAP FULL OF SOPHIE BROWN.
Cosgrach wasn't in his office. He was only going up with a letter in his hand to send it when he smelt the rolls somewhere around the kitchens. Well, it was fate, wasn't it? The... MMM, the smell said they were cinnamon rolls. They were his, even if the owner didn't want to give him some. So, he turned right around and started to follow the student to confiscate ask nicely. Well, she was heading to the dungeons... and as it was dark, he couldn't tell WHO it was, but obviously she was an older student, harder to scare but 'detention' was a magic word -
She stopped in front of HIS office? He grinned WIDELY. These rolls WERE his fate!
"Hello there," he called as he moved to open his door and look at her face. It was Cinna! Of course, Cinna' made cinnamon rolls. Hehehe. He opened his door and gestured at her to enter first.
Not gonna risk her turning away now.
Maybe he wasn't in his office and she knew better than to just leave it by his office door. She was in Slytherin territory now and they are were liable to come by and take it, those cunning little snakes. Especially once they got a sniff of this yumminess.
So she had two options open the door really fast and slide the cinnamon roll in the door or stand there and look pretty while waiting for him to return back to his office.
Cinna was about to do the first one but then a third option popped up in her head. She could just eat the cinnamon roll and come back later. This was her favorite option now. She was just about to go find a place to go eat when she heard someone coming up the corridor. Squinting her eyes she seen that it was Professor C.
"Hi, how are you? You're not busy right now are you?" She smiled, and stepped on into the office. If he was busy she could just drop off the cinnamon rolls and come back to talk about NEWT stuff later.

Oh, it was Dante. Should Cosgrach put up shielding charms in case he blew something up? Yes? No?
Hehehe... if only it really was a joke...
"Sure," he said and gestured for the boy to come in. He'd close the door by himself, right? If it was a private conversation?
Dante entered the room once he was given permission and closed the door behind him. Well better start talking before this gets really awkward. Dante nodded to him and sat down properly not like the first time he came into thi office.
Merlin that was a while ago.
"So Professor C. I have come to the conclusion that my face and basically my whole body and mind would not like anymore of my potions to explode. You know in case it damages my face or whatnot. So is there anyway to make sure they don't explode other than 100 percent concentration?"
You know because Dante did get distracted every now and again and it seemed to happen a lot more in Potions.

Zander gave Sophie skeptical "I've definitely seen him annoyed before" and "you're a nutter, Sophie Brown" kind of looks. But now that he was here with her, kind of too late to turn back. Besides, he figured Sophie wouldn't even let him if he tried.
... What the heck?? Why did the door just swing open that quickly!? It's like the man was EXPECTING them or something? Was something on fire? Was this a drill? Why the urgency, Professor? The Head Boy did a quick head whip around the room just to ensure everything looked safe and like it wasn't on fire.... Why had Culloden freaked out? All questions he couldn't ask at the moment 'cause Sophie was taking the time to tease the intimidating good man.
Surprise.
Except the real surprise was that Sophie was expecting him to follow along. In which case, uh.... "Yeah, definitely the work of some felix felicis or something, sir." Well he tried? It was just hard teasing a man who controlled his entire FUTURE, Sophie Brown. How in Merlin's name did she manage to do it. Tease practically every Professor there ever was and STILL hold one of the top positions in their entire year. Unfair. Super unfair. He was dating an evil mastermind.
And uh oh. Because he was gonna sit down.

So, he rushed to the door from his table and opened it. He wasn't wrong. Adi had brought him CAKE! Must be because it was his last year. What a lovely gesture!
"Come in!" he exclaimed towards the cake. Um... Adi could come in too, of course. HEHE.
Ahh, it didn't taken Culloden long to open the door! EXCELLENT! This meant the pranking could get started sooner. But why was the man talking to the CAKE? Adi squinted at him. "Professor, I do believe you are talking to me. Unless I charm the cake to grow feet or something.'' Hehe. Adi was very comfortable joking with his Professor turned House assistant.
He followed the man in, feeling very much at home in the comfortable Office. "So, how are you, Professor? And the baby?'' Would she still be considered a baby? She was...what?...one year old? As he spoke, he set the tray down on Culloden's desk. "I brought you this. An early good bye present, I think. And for being so patient and cool and all the good thing.'' All of that was true but this was about more than that. Heheeee.

So it WAS Sophie Brown with her new BOYFRIEND without a space between the 'boy' and 'friend'. She was FAR TOO PLEASED with herself as if this was a joke. Well, maybe it was. Actually, Cosgrach was SURE it was. She didn't visit him yesterday, because she wanted to visit WITH her boyfriend.
That hurt, y'know. Was it going to be like this, then? With Zander at all times? In that case...
"Haha, good one Zander," he said, ignoring Sophie completely. "Welcome. It's nice to see -"..."see -"
...
A deep breath... turn around and walk to your throne...
"How was your vacation?"

Yeah yeah, he was talking to Adi yeah. Cosgrach fiiiiiinally looked at the boy's eyes and grinned. "That wouldn't be bad, y'know. A piece of cake walking to my room." NOT bad, at all! Man, how come HE hadn't thought about this BEFORE?
Ugh. He was getting old.
He sat down on his throne as Adi asked the questions, and his face almost literally lit up at the mention of his baby daughter. "She's wonderful," he said but didn't end the sentence. Instead, he pulled out a photo that was of the one year old. "Here," he said as he gave the photo to Adi. NOW he could examine the cakes more freely...
"How sweet of ya!" he said with a grin, "thank you for being such a great student." He meant it 100% too. Adi was one of the best.
He took one in his hand...

...Dante say what?
Cosgrach shook his head a little, chuckled and tilted his head to one side as if to look at Dante from a new angle.
"It's an achievement of mine that you reliased explosions are bad," he said bluntly and grinned. "The charms I taught last year might help a lot, though nothing can stop a powerful one."
He was very much enjoying this conversation.

Definitely the work of some felix felicis... Soph snorted at her boyfriend's words and shook her head in good humor before wasting no time to slide right onto the Head Boy's lap the moment he took a seat in the chair.
All kinds of comfy, yes.
The reaction they got out of Culloden was PERFECT, honestly, and hilarious and beautiful and wonderful and everything she could've ever hoped it would be, and Sophie Brown GIGGLED. THE PERKS OF BEING A FATHER FIGURE. Culloden didn't seem to want to talk to her, though, which was fine and still hilarious, so Soph just sat there on Zander's lap, giggling and looking awfully smug as the professor made small talk with Zander.
And if there was any real hurt behind Culloden's currently tolerant facade, it completely escaped Sophie Brown.

Dante shrugged. Culloden was right. Explosions were bad for his person. Plus they were only cool the first time after that. No so much. Plus even if he said something. It would probably come out as sassy or not good for him.
"So like the Shield Charm and....."
Give me a break Professor it had been a whole summer. He can't remember every lesson last term.
"Wait! Nothing can stop a powerful one?"
That was not good.

She could speak while he ate, right?
Cinna scooted into the office a bit more, then sat down in the chair. Sitting the box in her lap. She laughed at his comment. It sounded a lot like a Bart comment. So this really made her smile.
Oh food? Right? "These are for you." hanging the box over to him and grinned.
She waited a few minutes before continuing, "So NEWTs are this term, do you have any suggestions, or advice potions wise?" Because yeah it was possible that she was going to fail her potions NEWT. Yep she was that bad.

Zander was confused.
First off Professor Culloden, it actually wasn't a good one. It was a horrible one. But more importantly, why was he pretending Sophie Brown wasn't even here? Y'know, maybe there was some grand underlying problem here and Zander was clearly in the middle of it so if he could just excuse himself from the parameter maybe the two of them could figure it out. Besides, Zander didn't even want to come here in the first place. It was another one of Sophie's grand schemes. So y'know, he could just kindly walk away and...
Well seeing as there was now a Sophie Brown sitting in his lap, that'd be kind of hard to do.
Normally he didn't mind, but IN FRONT OF A PROFESSOR? Merlin. It's like she wanted to see Zander die. Plus he was sure that Culloden didn't like this very much either. So uh, why?
"Erm, it was alright, Professor. Pretty quiet, didn't study as much as I probably should've, and then you know the badge bit... But that's all," he tried to sound as casual as he could, which was difficult to do when he was being sat on. "How about you, sir?" Didn't the guy have a kid now or something? Also, could someone please address the hippogriff in the room before it exploded everywhere.

So he had a quiet vacation? How often did he see Sophie? Not at all, if this lap-sitting was any indicator. Clearly, the girl had been deprived of attention. Cosgrach shrugged as he craned his neck to look into Zander's eyes - pretty hard while Sophie was there - and said "Quiet as well." Dealing with his family and...
Okay, he'd had enough.
Drawing his wand, he decided to levitate her and place her on the other EMPTY armchair. Only there would he acknowledge her, tyvm. Oh, and when she stopped giggling. His grumpiness was no laughing matter.

All of it? Pausing only for the tiniest moment, Cosgrach decided not to ask it. The way she said it sounded like ALL really was for him and if he didn't ask, he wouldn't have to share. So, he quickly grabbed one and gestured with his hand that SHE should take too - as long as she only ate a few, that was. Once he swallowed the piece, she talked and he thought about it before answering right away.
"Don't just read the recipes," he said as he looked her in the eye. Now that they were serious, eye contact was essential. "You'll forget them if you try to memorise by only reading. Practise the recipes in the lab. Come every week, if you can. Even if you don't brew something, examine the ingredients and study their properties by touching them. Especially in a practical class like potions, readers are bound to fail."

Ugh. He was getting old.
He sat down on his throne as Adi asked the questions, and his face almost literally lit up at the mention of his baby daughter. "She's wonderful," he said but didn't end the sentence. Instead, he pulled out a photo that was of the one year old. "Here," he said as he gave the photo to Adi. NOW he could examine the cakes more freely...
"How sweet of ya!" he said with a grin, "thank you for being such a great student." He meant it 100% too. Adi was one of the best.
He took one in his hand...
HAHA. Adi laughed. "Sureee, Professor. Next time I'll charm some food to come walking through your door.'' Everyone and their love for food! "Good thing the kitchen is not far from the Puffs. Whenever you come to check on us, you can stop by for a snack.''
Could Adi sit too? You know what? Naaaah, he didn't need to. He was too excited for RESULTS! Mwahahaha! Oh, he was being handed a photo... of one of the cutest kiddos he had ever seen! AWWWH! Could he adopt her? "She's beautiful! Must have gotten her looks from her mother,'' he teased. "I'm joking, Professor! You don't look too bad either.'' Just had to clear that up in case Culloden decided to bodily throw him out of the office.
Adi went back to looking at the photo, half concentrating on his Professor. "You're welcome. When I'm famous, you can say proudly that you know me because you used to teach me.'' Heheee. Adi's RPer rolls her eyes at him and mutters 'Show off'
Okaaaay, almost there. The Slytherin turned Hufflepuff now held one in his hands... come on. No more suspense.
First off Professor Culloden, it actually wasn't a good one. It was a horrible one. But more importantly, why was he pretending Sophie Brown wasn't even here? Y'know, maybe there was some grand underlying problem here and Zander was clearly in the middle of it so if he could just excuse himself from the parameter maybe the two of them could figure it out. Besides, Zander didn't even want to come here in the first place. It was another one of Sophie's grand schemes. So y'know, he could just kindly walk away and...
Well seeing as there was now a Sophie Brown sitting in his lap, that'd be kind of hard to do.
Normally he didn't mind, but IN FRONT OF A PROFESSOR? Merlin. It's like she wanted to see Zander die. Plus he was sure that Culloden didn't like this very much either. So uh, why?
"Erm, it was alright, Professor. Pretty quiet, didn't study as much as I probably should've, and then you know the badge bit... But that's all," he tried to sound as casual as he could, which was difficult to do when he was being sat on. "How about you, sir?" Didn't the guy have a kid now or something? Also, could someone please address the hippogriff in the room before it exploded everywhere.

Okay, he'd had enough.
Drawing his wand, he decided to levitate her and place her on the other EMPTY armchair. Only there would he acknowledge her, tyvm. Oh, and when she stopped giggling. His grumpiness was no laughing matter.
Everything was fine and dandy, and the boys were talking pleasantly enough - but suddenly she was IN THE AIR and OFF OF ZANDER'S LAP, and Sophie Brown GIGGLED as Culloden levitated her from Zander's lap to the chair beside him.
"Your patience level is impressive today, professor. M'surprised y'even let me last that long." She griiiiinned between the two of them and leaned back in the chair, making herself comfy and right at home. "Zander thought they made a mistake by sending him the badge this summer, though. Thought Botros in his old age just messed up addresses or somethin'. Can you believe that? Zander doesn't think he DESERVES it."
Aaaand this was where she hoped Culloden would step up to the plate and TELL ZANDER ALL THE GOOD THINGS. BOOST HIS SELF-ESTEEM. PROVE THAT HE WAS WORTHY AND WAS GOING TO BE A GOOD HEAD BOY.
"And Vitare crepitus," he said calmly with only a hint of smile on his face. Of course Dante didn't remember these spells. He preferred explosions.
"Well, concentration can." Y'know, the very thing he seemed to hate.
"Vitare crepitus, of course"
Ah, light bulb moment for Dante. He had forgotten about that spell. Probably because it was a weird word and yeah. That one. The one that sounded like creep at the end. Dante would have to refresh his memory on that spell.
"Ah, concentration. Right. That is the one thing i'm trying to improve this term in your course. Since you know. I don't want to cause anymore explosions"
Plus you know. He did not want to get in anymore trouble for them. It was a hassle and Dante had better things to do. He didn't but it sounded good to him in his head.

All of it? Pausing only for the tiniest moment, Cosgrach decided not to ask it. The way she said it sounded like ALL really was for him and if he didn't ask, he wouldn't have to share. So, he quickly grabbed one and gestured with his hand that SHE should take too - as long as she only ate a few, that was. Once he swallowed the piece, she talked and he thought about it before answering right away.
"Don't just read the recipes," he said as he looked her in the eye. Now that they were serious, eye contact was essential. "You'll forget them if you try to memorise by only reading. Practise the recipes in the lab. Come every week, if you can. Even if you don't brew something, examine the ingredients and study their properties by touching them. Especially in a practical class like potions, readers are bound to fail."
hehe This was really part of the reason why she liked making the cinnamon rolls especially taking them to professor. Most of them would share. Basically the point of putting four in a box. Three for them, one for her see she was very fair with her distribution. She smiled and grabbed on too. Yummy.
Oh wait, should she be taking notes or something?
She listened and ate her cinnamon roll. WHAT? Don't just read the recipe??? But how wasn't that how you knew what to do? She sent him a very confused look. He was going to explain this more into detail, yes?
Good he was explaining this in detail. Good! She nodded "Okay. That I can do. I'm not much of a reader anyway." especially after the whole fairy tale story take over. Yep she didn't read. She smiled again "Anything else?" If he had anymore advice or pointers or anything he should tell her. Spill the secrets of potioneering.

COME ON, CULLODEN. HELP A KID OUT.
Meeeeeerlin, all this staring was sure getting uncomfortable. He quietly tugged at his collar all the while. Aheeeeem. Well uh. "Oh, that's good I guess... Quiet is good..." You know what's not good though? This entire interaction. This was SO NOT GOOD.
And then Soph was being levitated and Culloden looked very unhappy and Sophie was teasing instead of apologizing and Zander was still uncomfortable. Just your typical day at Hogwarts, ladies and gents.
.... Sophie Brown say WHAT NOW? The Gryffindor was just fine sitting there and being uncomfortable while the two of them figured stuff out, but OF COURSE Sophie Brown had to drag him into the mix and throw him under a bus again. Very non-appreciative glances were thrown her way as he mumbled some under his breath. "Uh." That's not even the point here, SOPHIE BROWN. "Well apparently it wasn't a mistake, SO ANYWAYS is it just me or is there an awful lot of weird looks going around????... Maybe you two should talk about it. Clear the air a little bit. I can leave if y'want?" P L E A S E.

Okaaaay, almost there. The Slytherin turned Hufflepuff now held one in his hands... come on. No more suspense.
Imagine if Adi really did that though... Cosgrach didn't answer for a moment. The idea was too brilliant to comment on further, so he just laughed at the kitchens remark. "That's why I took on the job," he said and winked - not really, but he DID think about that.
Hehe. Cosgrach waved his free hand as if to say Don't worry, I know."No, Victoria is the prettier of us," he said, "but thank you. I might bring her here sometime." Once he made sure acromantulas really were gone and there was nothing after his precious baby.
HEHEHE. When he was famous, eh? Why not? "That, I will," he said, "and I expect some credit for it. After all, we spent 6 years here." SIX YEARS. Ugh. It was an eternity.
Time for the snack now. Cosgrach took a bite, then another, then...
FHSŞKAŞJSL WHAT WAS THIS FPAKŞDŞ HE WASN'T HIMSELF HE WAS A-
"TWEET."
HE WAS A CANARY! DID HE FLAIL? OR NOT? WHAT SHOULD HE DOOOO?

No, actually, Zander Adair say WHAT NOW?
"You aren't leaving," he simply said, and turned to Sophie I'm-So-Funny. He knew he should never have let her get in his heart. Look where they were now. He was friends with practically all of the kids, married with a daughter of his own, and she was the CHEEKIEST of all. He missed his old life where he made a face all day, hated everyone and made them fear him. MUCH EASIER.
"I think Abraham made a mistake too," he said, eyes still on her, "but his mistake was you. You're the cheekiest head girl ever. Or do you hate only me?" No no, he didn't mean any of this, but it still was a LEGIT question. Was she honestly like this around only him and Piers?

Mhmmmmmmm...
She honoured her name, she did! And it showed on his face. He enjoyed this so very much . . .
Anything else? He thought about it - oh, duh, the most obvious thing.
"You can come to me at any moment when you have a question. Well, except during sleeping time but yeah. I don't mind." On the contrary, that was his job."And, ask Leo for some good theory books. My favourite is Potions For All - as the name suggests, it addresses everyone and is easy, but any book in the library is good."
Did SHE have any questions?

Well, this was such a huge progress for Dante too. The boy didn't want to explode things anymore. It honestly was - because after exploding the cauldron at almost every lesson, one wondered if it was on purpose.
"You can take a concentration potion," he said, "you have to brew it yourself though." Cue a fully grinning face. No, he didn't mean it at all. How ironic would it be if Dante exploded that cauldron too?
"I can give you first few doses, at least, then depending on the progress, we can discuss it." Like, whether he was able to brew it by himself and such.

Cosgrach was such a good professor!
Potions Master say what?
"You saying there actually is a thing such as concentration potions?"
He never even thought of that. Though since this was a school of magic. it would make sense that a thing like that would exist. His face sunk a little when he head Culloden say he would have to brew it himself because that was just a disaster waiting to happen. But then it quickly turned into a genuine smile.
"That would be awesome Professor. Thank You. Thank You!"

Zander spazzing out on her was SUPER funny, honestly, and Sophie giggled the whole time the Head Boy rambled on in his nervousness. And when Culloden told him he couldn't leave, Soph said, "HA," as if to say, See? He doesn't hate you, he wants you to say, and he's going to TELL YOU ALL ABOUT WHY YOU'RE WORTHY OF THAT BADGE.
...But then Culloden was being TOTALLY mean to her instead. PFFFFFFFFT. "Ruuuuude," she chimed, appearing outwardly unfazed by the man's (playful?) attempt to bring her down, and crossed her arms smugly over her chest. "He didn't make any mistakes, contrary to what everyone seems to be so inclined to believe." Kind of a touchy subject for Sophie Brown deep down, but she was trying really, really hard to not let on to her buried hurt over any accusation that she didn't deserve the badge. She avoided Zander's gaze, though, because she was certain he would see the hurt behind her facade if she dared to look at him, especially since he already knew she was sensitive over the badge from her bout with Evie. He was good at noticing the subtleties when something was wrong, and Culloden never had been. So she kept her gaze locked on the potions master.
"'N I don't hate you." It was weird that he'd even say that, though. "M'only cheeky with you, though. Well, 'n sometimes Flammy, when he's in a good mood. He's less fun to joke 'round with, though, 'cause he gets super uncomfortable and super uneasy really fast. He doesn't have as good of a sense of humor as you, which is why you're usually my target." See? So it was a thing of admiration, really. He should've been flattered. "'N now that both Quiggles 'n Javy are gone, too, you're the only one left with a sense of humor, so you're probably gonna be bothered by me more than anyone." Besides Dakest, who was quickly growing on Sophie Brown. Dakest was actually almost just as fun to tease as Culloden was, maybe even more.

Uuuuuuuuuh oh.
Why did Professor Culloden want to speak to Riley and Reagan privately? Had they done something wrong? IT WAS BECAUSE THEY'D WORKED TOGETHER, WASN'T IT? It wasn't her fault that she thought it would be quicker and easier to work as a pair - she was using her INITIATIVE and that was normally encouraged, wasn't it?
Now, she wasn't scared as such because Riley didn't do scared but she didn't really want to get into trouble. Especially not during her FIRST lesson. What sort of an impression would that make? So, whilst slightly hidden behind Reagan, she peeked up at the Professor with SWEET and INNOCENT eyes.
"D'you want another chocolate frog, sir?"
Chocolate solved everything.

If Reagan hadn't been as optimistic about life as she tended to be, she'd have started developing a complex about all these staff members wanting to speak with her in their offices. Professor Culloden made the second one, and she'd only been at Hogwarts a week.
Alas, Rea (being Rea) felt nothing was amiss. Coincidental. That's all it was. Surely.
"Professor, thank you for inviting us to your office." It was only polite to say as much, you know...and she'd not seated herself yet. Seeing as there was a Riley just behind her, it would've been difficult to do as much. To show support for her new friend, as she was POSITIVE nothing was at all wrong with their performance in the classroom, she snugged the girl.
"It's okay, Riley."

Cosgrach offered them a cordial smile and said "Take a seat, please." They didn't have anything to be afraid of, really. He just wanted to ask them a few things, and he wanted it to be quick. It had been a long lesson. Or maybe he really was getting old...
"I don't want chocolate, thank you," he said to the younger girl, and after a brief pause, asked "Why did you work together?" Any specific reasons to that?
"Drop by my office before the lesson to have it." Then, they could go from there.
"Is that all?"
]
"I will Professor"
Dante said nodding. This was more than he could ever have hoped for before coming in his office earlier. Remembered a spell, found out a potion was real, and he was now on a trial basis with this potion.
"Yeah that was it and Thank You again"
Dante said getting up.
This Term would be the term of No Explosions.

Taking a seat and tugging Riley along with her, Reagan offered the Professor a softer version of her previous smile. He was lovely, see? Why was Riley hiding? Or was her little friend just shy? Rea offered her a hand to hold...just in case she felt uncomfortable.
Not everyone was her. The older Ravenclaw understood this.
"Riley asked me to help her...and then if I simply wanted to work together. I felt this worked better for the both of us as I didn't plan to brew the potion at all."...Well, he'd asked and Rea didn't see anything wrong with her emotions and feelings on the matter. Simply put, she didn't approve of the ingredients. So, with Riley's help, she'd been able to participate without directly interacting with them.
