All in all, it was a damn near completely new roster of professors this year. Of course, there was him and Minerva and there was Filius. God knows how long he would stay, but that was about it for the old guard.
Astronomy had been taken over by one of the Patils, he couldn't be sure which one. He was Headmaster, perhaps he should get on that.
Next to her was Hermione teaching Potions, Anaís teaching Muggle Studies, Mr's Potter-Malfoy & Malfoy-Potter (( Defense & Flying respectively )) next to her Minerva next to them, another young ( American if the accent was anything to go by ) woman sat next to her. Dear Gods, he thought. How many strange new people will there be? I suppose I should go acquaint myself with her seeing as I'm headmaster & all.
With a mental roll of his eye, Severus glided over to where Rolf the new gamekeeper/ Care of Magical Creatures Professor was chatting to the new Professor. Severus inhaled deeply. Hagrid had never said an ill word to or against him. Even during… he simply said nothing. He was deeply missed. Severus interrupted him with a clearing of his throat. " Headmaster Severus Snape" he stated inclining his head slightly. "Alaïa. Alaïa Everhardt. Charmed "
She exposed a pearlescent perfectly straight row of teeth & extended her hand. He thought of Narcissa Malfoy as he took it. But did not kiss it. She released his hand slowly, almost a caress. Severus narrowed his eyes & she fluttered her lashes. Severus turned away to return to his seat & immediately locked eyes with Hermione from across the room.
She leaned back in her chair & folded her arms across her chest. He glanced at Anaïs who had an expression on her face that clearly said sooooo.
Soooooo…. Severus was the Headmaster truly this time. Sooooo was going to begin the meeting, & hold it as though nothing was amiss, folded arms, narrowed eyes, fluttering lashes & possible hand caresses be damned.
