Readings | Dominique & Shayla
dominique-j-weasley:
Taking a quick sip of her tea, Dom burned her tongue slightly and gasped in pain, putting her cup down quickly. Why did she always do that? Letting her mouth cool for a second, she responded to the Professor’s comment.
“No sugar? Blimey, I could never,” she said and breathed out dramatically, still trying to stop the burn on her tongue, “but I don’t think they will mind-...
Office visit | Scorpius
prince-scorpius-malfoy:
Scorpius had gotten bored after having an jam packed afternoon hanging out with Rose and Roxanne. He decided that it was nearing 6 o’clock and he had to get his paper in for Professor Song but he did not understand any of it. The typical Scorpius would just leave it and not care, but he was bored and Professor Song was rather good-looking for a teacher and a red-head, so...
Readings | Dominique & Shayla
dominique-j-weasley:
Taken aback a bit by Professor Song’s enthusiasm, and still not quite wide awake, Dom smiled gently and took a seat across from the woman. She knew the woman was fast talking and enthusiastic, and despite finding it a but humorous, she couldn’t help but admire the woman’s dedication to her subject. As she listened to her rattle off the different methods of reading, Dom tried...

Hey guys, sorry I wasn’t on yesterday! I was busy most of the day, and today I had to work on my final project for German. I have to leave for my night class in about thirty minutes, so I don’t think I’ll be able to type up replies when I come back, seeing as I get home at ten. Anyway, just thought I’d let you know what’s going on. Hopefully I’ll be more active...

Office visit | Scorpius
There was something she was forgetting. She had graded the tests, she had responded to her mother’s letter, she had even made up the next week’s lesson plan for her fifth years, but there was something else she had to do. Glancing at her calendar hanging up on the wall, she was suddenly reminded of what was on her schedule; Scorpius Malfoy was coming for help! It was a good thing she remembered,...
Readings | Dominique & Shayla
dominique-j-weasley:
Dominique yawned loudly and gazed out the window. Merlin, that had been a good nap! She had needed it- she had pretty much gone days without more than a few hours of sleep, and despite the homework that kept building up, she had decided it was a better idea to get a nap in than try to conquer it being so sleepy. Plus, she had somehow decided that meeting with Professor Song...
Hello Everyone.
prince-scorpius-malfoy:
Any-time. When is best for you?
Any time after classes, really. I have time now if you’re not busy!
Hello Everyone.
prince-scorpius-malfoy:
Well I dont get any of it so…
Oh, then yes, you should come to my office!
Is there a certain time that’s good for you?

Hello Everyone.
prince-scorpius-malfoy:
No, I just need some help on the essay you set. Your teaching is amazing.
Oh, alright! Is it just a quick question, or do you need help in general? I would hate to have you walk all the way from the dungeons to see me for a quick question.
Hello Everyone.
prince-scorpius-malfoy:
They are going well, but I could use some extra help in your class.
Well you can always come to my office if you have any questions! I’m always glad to help out my students!
… Unless it’s something about my teaching methods that’s giving you trouble. In any case, stop by any time you want!
Hello Everyone.
prince-scorpius-malfoy:
If it is not my favourite teacher. I am very well, thank you. You?
Aww, you’re too kind! I’m doing great! Are classes going well for you this year?

Tea? Being prepared. Papers? Graded and neatly stacked. The rest of the office? Well, it wasn’t pristine, but it was in it’s usual state. Loretta wasn’t currently in her office either, so she couldn’t make a big mess somehow. All in all, professor Song was prepared for Dominique to come by for her reading. She was quite glad to do this, actually! Then again, she was always excited when students...

Hello, everyone!
dominique-j-weasley:
Nor me a Gryffindor! Say, if you’re free right now, would you mind doing my reading? I’m actually pretty excited about it!
Yes, I just got done grading all my papers! I’ll prepare the tea!

Hello, everyone!
dominique-j-weasley:
That’s pretty cool. I want to work for the Ministry one day- but not in any of the boring departments. I’d go insane. I guess the wrong job is like being placed in the wrong house here- you’d feel out of place and just want out! Glad you’re happy here now though!
That’s great! There are lots of exciting and interesting jobs in the ministry, I think. I know people...

Good, at least I know what to focus on now, except I’ll probably have to brush up on everything I learnt so long ago.
But that shouldn’t be too difficult! Everything will be fine!

Hello, everyone!
dominique-j-weasley:
I’m sure there is!
And that’s true… that would make you what…. 25 or so? That’s definitely not much older. Did you always want to come back here and teach?
Yup! Twenty five exactly. I didn’t know that I wanted to come back to teach right away. I tried working at the ministry for a bit, and it was nice, but it didn’t feel right. Does that make sense?
Has anyone seen my cat?
hogwartscreatureteacher:
Sorry. I didn’t even think about you being worried about her. She was by the lake and she just followed me back to the cabin and I gave her some tuna and then… feathers. I’ve been ignoring grading all afternoon playing with her…
It’s alright! It sounds like you two are having fun! She can stay with you a bit longer if you want. Just make sure you eventually...
Has anyone seen my cat?
hogwartscreatureteacher:
Oh… Ah… Yes. I have her. I’ve… I’ve been playing with her all day… She likes feathers a lot… You should come and get her back.
Oh, it’s okay that she’s with you, just as long as I know she’s safe! I probably should get her, though. I don’t even know if she knows how to get back to my office from there!

Has anyone seen my cat?
She didn’t come by to bug me for food today.
If one of you has seen her, please let me know! And if one of you has fed her, thank you! You should know, though, that once you give her food, she’ll want every bit of food she sees you with.

hogwartscreatureteacher:
Roy chuckled lightly. “Well, you can if you’d like, but it isn’t necessary.” He’d forgotten how excitable Shayla was, how much she loved tea. He slid slip of paper in the book and closed it, placing his glasses on top and leaning back on the sofa. “How have classes been, lately, Shayla? Sorry I haven’t been around. Did you hear that I was in St. Mungo’s for the past...
Visiting || Roy
hogwartscreatureteacher:
Roy tossed down his book and took off his glasses as he jogged to the door, smiling as Shayla walked in. “I have a few hooks on the wall,” he said as he took her coat, placing it on one of them by the door. Merlin, when was the last time he’d interacted with another adult? It had been ages! He moved to the small stove and set a kettle down. “Would you like some tea?...

hogwartscreatureteacher:
Cool! And sorry. I’ll start that up and then go to dinner. I’ll be out for about an hour.
Alrighty! I’m about to have dinner too, so if I haven’t replied before you get back, I’ll reply after I have eaten.

Ahh! So many new bios! I love it! And am praying for more professors, because Shayla and Roy are so lonely! Also, I think today I’ll actually be able to be on for more than two minutes!
fgvadfgad!!! I know! I’m so excited! I had so much fun writing them aaaaaall!
Also, did I miss the starter for Roy? Or did it ever exist? Should Roy start a new one?

dominique-j-weasley said:
I would! I think it would be fun. Just let me know when!
I’m available any time after classes. I’ll probably just be grading papers or drinking tea or something, so you can stop by whenever!
Hello, everyone!
dominique-j-weasley:
You should! I don’t know how common they are.. I wonder if there are giant squids like that all over the world?
That’s pretty awesome you found out quickly! I think that’s got to be a fun gift to have. Who was the Divination professor when you were a student?
I don’t believe they’re extremely rare, but I never was much of an expert on the subject. Surely...

thetealeavestoldme:
Yes well, it is everything you learnt during school so as long as you pay attention, or go at all you should pass.
Yup! And a lot of things on you’re tested on are things students have known so long, it’s basically second nature. You just have to worry about the newer, more difficult things!
thetealeavestoldme:
Fingers crossed I pass my exams, if I fail I’ll be back for an extra year.
I’m sure you’ll pass! I find that the people who pass their OWLs almost always pass their NEWTs.
Hello, everyone!
dominique-j-weasley:
Thanks Professor- I’d appreciate that! And I’ll be sure to let you know what Professor Hale says about the Veela attraction.. if it’s not that, then I have no idea what another explanation could be!
That’s exciting that there might be another seer around here. Hopefully as he gets older it becomes a bit clearer for you.
I can’t think of another explanation,...
dominique-j-weasley asked: Hello Professor Song! I was wondering if you do individual readings for students? Clearly not about love lives, but what about like, other things?
Hello, everyone!
dominique-j-weasley:
Well if you happen to find out, I’d be interested to know, Professor! I’m very curious now. Though if your theory holds true, we might never find out!
I dunno about the squid… I’ll have to ask around and see if other people encounter it as much as I do! The only thing I can think of is maybe it’s the Veela in me that he’s attracted to… but could the squid even know...
savannahrivers:
No well maybe sacred wasn’t the best word, I mean I do love learning and it will be even better once I get to chose what I want and don’t have to do homework on it. Yes the exams add a boat load of pressure.
Well, you only have a little longer before you’re done with everything and out in the world! You can do it!

Hello, everyone!
dominique-j-weasley:
Well that would be fascinating! I heard prophecies used to be kept in the Department of Mysteries in the Ministry until… well, obviously you know what happened there- silly me. I do wonder where they are kept now.. but if you know, you could go search for your name sometime! And that’s true… I suppose I wouldn’t see it anyway, since I’m in Gryffindor. Oh well.
I have seen...
savannahrivers:
Well why would you assign work on something you don’t know? It just means more work for you. But I guess you can never be done learning- as much as that scares me. Yes I finished it ages ago. Well maybe not ages but a while ago.
No, I don’t assign homework on what I’m researching! My research and homework assignings are completely separate! But no, you can’t...

And you already know everything so you don’t have to do any research. And I’ve already done my homework, don’t you worry.
Well, I don’t know everything. Many professors still do work and research within their fields. We don’t just stop learning once we’ve graduated. Well, we stop learning in a classroom setting… But you know what I...

Should I take my coat? Shayla wondered as she prepared to go outside. It seemed pretty nice out, but at this time of the year days could go from very nice to very cold quite quickly, and she couldn’t predict the weather (sadly). “I think I’ll take it just in case,” she finally decided. Besides, if she took it, maybe the weather would stay warm just to make her look stupid, and Shayla would rather...
Hello, everyone!
dominique-j-weasley:
Maybe! It must be interesting having an inner eye… how exactly does that work? Are your visions almost like dreams? And an adventure is always nice.. you’re lucky you’re a Professor and you don’t have to worry about getting in trouble having one. And I think the Squid attacking the Slytherin common room would be funny… granted nobody got hurt of course. I don’t think they...

Hello, everyone!
savannahrivers:
No I’m not particularly looking forwards to them. But being done school now that I’m looking forward to. But school’s more fun when your in charge and your assigning the homework instead of doing it.
Well, yes. That’s a lot better. Grading papers does take a while sometimes, but no longer than potions essays used to take me. It’s odd talking to students, though....

Hello, everyone! Sorry I wasn’t on yesterday, I had a busy Friday. D: Anyway, I will reply to everyone now!
Hello, everyone!
hogwartscreatureteacher:
Visiting should be abound! Why isn’t it? Goodness me, where has the time gone? Well, you know where to find me, of course. I’ve moved into that old hut Hagrid used to live in, use it for classes, a study room, and eventually I just said, “Screw it” and moved in. I think I have an office somewhere in the castle…
Well, I might sometimes completely lose track of time,...
Hello, everyone!
savannahrivers:
And N.E.W.T.’s but I do wish that O.W.L.’s were as fun as real owls. But I would take real owls anyday.
Me too! And newts aren’t fun either way. After you finish them, though, you’re finished with school! I loved school, though. That’s why I came back!

Hello, everyone!
dominique-j-weasley:
Hmm.. sorry Professor, but I don’t know if I can agree with you there. She told me I was going to get pushed off a cliff and eaten by rabid deer in my fourth year. Shockingly, I’m still around! Have you had any interesting visions lately?
Oh… Usually I find that my predictions aren’t so… specific. Perhaps my inner eye needs glasses? Anyway, my tea...
Hello, everyone!
savannahrivers:
Yeah I guess that true, but fifth, sixth, and seventh, is sort of when stuff get real.
I would hope that stuff is always real! I do agree with you, though. I think it’s because of the O.W.Ls in fifth year. Not nearly as fun as actual owls.
Hello, everyone!
hogwartscreatureteacher:
Ugh. Lonely. Staying out there by the cabin is so loooonely… I have very few friends here. Everyone must hate me.
Aww, you poor thing! You should visit me more! … Or maybe I should visit you more… Either way, there’s a serious lack of visits between us!
Hello, everyone!
savannahrivers:
Oh it’s been great, more homework than expected but sixths years important right?
Oh, definitely! All years are important, but I feel that fifth, sixth, and seventh year are the most important in preparation for your future.
Hello, everyone!
dominique-j-weasley:
Quite well- thanks Professor! How’s Divination? I’m not taking it this year- the Professor before you was horrid, sorry to say.
Divination is divine! And I’m sorry to hear that. I don’t think she was that bad… she just had some trouble communicating what she knew to students.
Hello, everyone!

Hello Professor Song! How are you?
I’m doing fantastic! How about you, Ms. Weasley?
tumblrbot asked: WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL BETTER WHEN YOU ARE IN A BAD MOOD?
Hello, everyone!
nickcorner:
Apparently not. Haha! I’ll be sure to take it next year. I think I’m going to have to for NEWT’s.
Oh, excellent! I’m always happy to have more Ravenclaws in my classroom! The Ravenclaw students, of course, not actual claws of ravens.
