one; EVENT + INTRO
Feb. 2nd, 2010 08:17 pmAs if returning to Hogwarts and taking that wretched train weren't difficult enough, why am I fifteen again?! It's not exactly a time I want to revisit... Try as I might, I can't seem to undo whatever spell is causing this. There don't seem to be any other side-effects, so I'll stop by the hospital later, perhaps.
I-in any case, hello everyone! My name is Thobari Durandal Kumohira. You don't have to worry about the Kumohira part, since that's a bit hard to say. Just Professor Thobari or Professor Durandal is fine. And I'll just get this out of the way by adding that my name is pronounced Tobari, as if the "h" wasn't there.Just like the Thames, get it?
I may not look it right now, but I assure you, I am your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. To my students; I'm certain that this year you'll learn plenty of new things, and it's my duty to make sure that you make the best of this term. So no slacking off just because I'm new, alright?
To the teachers, I'm honored to be joining a renowned institution such as this and I hope we can work together to make sure our students become outstanding wizards and witches.

And please don't listen to anything Yukimi says about me. He's a wonderful man, [the ink here looks especially dark] don't get me wrong, but he and I were... friends back in high school, so his opinion may be a bit... biased.

Date: 2010-02-04 01:26 am (UTC)Indeed. Not exactly a pleasant re-introduction to the castle, especially since everyone else is running around and overreacting.

Date: 2010-02-04 01:37 am (UTC)That was hours ago, however. I got wrapped up with moving my things and never went in the end... If it's only temporary, I suppose it isn't too bad. [yeah, now. He totally panicked like hell before.]
Although it does bring back memories...

Date: 2010-02-04 03:19 am (UTC)A-alright. I guess we'll have to work together now that we're co-workers teaching the same class.
baww, my bb icons are lame
Date: 2010-02-04 03:49 am (UTC)It should be temporary; I'm told these sorts of things tend to stop after a day or two. A hospital wing visit shouldn't be necessary.
You said you were a Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, yes? Which houses will you be teaching?
psssh, this all happened in the latest chapter. one month ago, I'd've been screwed
Date: 2010-02-04 04:37 am (UTC)I'll be teaching Hufflepuffs and Gryffindors. Are you a new teacher as well?
