I think I’ll sit here and have some tea instead of grading essays. Hope you all like that plan because I have no intention of changing it.

Hey, Folks…

a-lawson:

Hello there. Something wrong?

beau-corny:

I don’t want to leave… Summers are lovely, and I like having time with Da, but I don’t see anyone except my cats and dogs and Dad.

Well, at least you see other people. I spend most of my time on my lonesome.

rosenymphadora:

It’s not over yet.

It might as well be.

I can’t bring myself to assign anything, and no one can bring themselves to do it.

prof-m-jacobs-whittingstall:

I’m not…I don’t have much else to do.

That makes it more depressing. It’s almost like limbo.

It’s not like I want to work, but I don’t want to go leave.

prof-m-jacobs-whittingstall:

Have I missed a month again? Bollocks.

No, you haven’t. There’s still one more to go! But everyone seems so impatient for it to be over already.

beau-corny:

There’s another month left, professor!

Only another month left. Nobody wants to concentrate anymore. The weather’s too nice, and the cake’s are too sweet. I know that’s how I feel.

It makes everyone in such a hurry to leave.

Ah, end of term is always so depressing.

albus-wolf-potter:

Me?

Never

I’m not entirely convinced of that, Potter. But if you say so.

But you must know someone who’s up to something.

r-jordan:

Quieter than normal maybe. Subdued almost.

Hrm. I’m willing to bet someone is up to something. Know anything about that?
