Despite Harry's multiple inheritances with two kids to support, a mum from little money, and a step dad with nothing but what his grandma was willing to give; both Harry and Neville had to work. But Harry and Neville weren't the only two earning money now that most of the children had grown up and were old enough to do their own thing.
After McGonagall retired from being Headmistress, she called upon Luna Lovegood (now Potter). Luna reminded her of Dumbledor and remembered how happy most had been during his reign. She then offered the position to Luna who happily agreed. The gargoyle guarding the entrance was pleased to find a new eccentric being enter the headquarters of Hogwarts. One of Luna's first moves was to get a new teaching staff. She also produced an expected curriculum (with Hermione's generous help) of all the teachers.
Luna knew that Trewlaney was getting more batty than usual so she softly told the old professor that she couldn't teach anymore. However, she said that as long as Trewlaney didn't mind sharing with the new teacher, she could stay. Seeing as the new Divination teacher was Trewlaney's prize pupil Lavender Brown (now Weasly), Trewlaney was more than happy to share the space.
Vector, too, was getting on in age. So, Luna went to his office one morning saying she had some bad news for him. Upon hearing that he was being fired, he exclaimed quite happily,"Thank you so much Headmistress! I've been waiting for this for forever. I thought that Dumbledor, rest his soul, would do it but I guess he hadn't the heart." Luna was shocked but quickly composed herself and promptly called Hermione.
"Of course I'll take the position."
And so the new Muggle Studies teacher became Hermione Granger (now Malfoy sans Weasly).
Sprout had decided she was too old for the excitement of Hogwarts and handed in her letter of resignment shortly after Luna was ushered in. She had requested that Neville take her place, but understood that it was really up to Luna. Fortunately for both Sprout and Neville, Luna thought he'd be perfect. And that is how Neville Longbottom ended up being Professor of Herbology and, though a Gryffindor, head of Hufflepuff.
After the loss of Fred, George handed the Weasley Wizard Wheezes over to Lee Jordan who renamed it The Wizard Wheezes. From the store Jordan ran his radio station, but now called it 'Wheezewatch' and played music instead of details on Harry's life. George had talked to Fred through his lost ear and both had agreed that was the best action to take. But that left George without a job and an unfinished education. Thankfully Luna decided to forgo the latter and hired George as the new potions master. Besides, making those candies needs expertise in potions, she had thought. George wasn't completely alone in this endeavor though for Severus Snape had chose to live life as a ghost. George taught potions with Snape's help and was also the Head of Slytherin. But having been a Gryffindor he was attempting to reteach them some values. Thankfully he had Snape to help out and Slytherin was the first house to not only have two heads, but one of which who was a ghost.
That left the Defense Against the Dark Arts position left. Luna knew her husband would make the best teacher the school had ever had, having once studied under him, but she was unsure if she should hire him. After conferring with the potions masters, and the alive ones' siblings, she decided to ask Harry if he'd be able to do it. Harry said he would and not to worry, "IF you for some reason need to fire me, I understand and won't take it personally."
Having filled all the empty positions, Luna had no room to hire either Ron or Ginny. This didn't faze Ginny Weasley (now Longbottom sans Potter) who was quite happy being a housewife. Ron would have liked to work, but realizing he was becoming more like his mom who he secretly admired he didn't mind staying at home that much,
Besides the two stay at home parents, Draco was the only one of the group to not work at Hogwarts. The ministry reform panel decided they needed a new and younger minister who was still fresh from the last battle. Draco having name (and a small connection through Mr. Weasley (his dad was in Azkaban again)) was offered as a nomination. He was then judged, interviewed and given small tasks to complete. He passed all types of examinations with flying colors and became the new minister of magic.
Thanks for sticking with me everyone! Please review, I really appreciate it and will most likely respond to each review personally. Expect an update in a little over a week (maybe sooner if I'm lucky) seeing as I'm about to be moving into my freshman year at college. But I promise to keep writing! Please bear with me, thanks!
