She as also grateful to be there for Hope so that Nessa wouldn't worry as much knowing she was watching over her.
This wasn't about her and her feelings though, no, she had a job to do and she had children to watch over. All the students were her kids now she always felt that way when she taught, so the five foot professor put on her red robes and a Santa hat and entered the Great Hall. "HELLLLLLLO, HELLOOOO." A big smile on her face as she heard the singing, "I love this song!"
"What a bright time its the right time to rock the night away. Jingle bell time is a swell time to go riding in a one-horse sleigh."
She began to dance around her smile just as big as it always was. Though she was beginning to notice that some of the students and professors didn't seem so happy, which she knew just the right thing for that. Hugs, hugs made things better. She started with William and moved to Aboli.
"Happy Christmas to all"
.....okay okay, cool, Professor K, Aboli tried to hug back as quickly as possible so it wouldn't last that long, but she was very appreciative of her Divination professor's kindess. "Happy Christmas, Professor!" she smiled sheepishly at her before turning back to Kimmie and Avalon...and some boy [ Minjae] whose name she had forgotten O_O SPOILER!!: Kimmie, Avalon, Minjae Quote:

It had been a moment since she had seen her Ravenclaw friend. Snorting slightly at her comment, the sarcasm fully appreciated. "True, true. I do fully plan on demolishing a plate of those cookies over the course of the evening." Her love of food was not something she was ever shy of.
She eyed Aboli for a moment when she answered she wasn't feeling well physically, and she raised an eyebrow slightly. She could see Professor Recard had arrived, so at least if she started feeling any worse she could probably assist. For now she wouldn't push too much. "Let me know if you need anything." Like, water or something. Or maybe a ginger bread cookie? Ginger was calming for an upset stomach, right? She sighed in agreement about emotions, nodding her head slightly. It was definitely hard to not being feeling stressed and upset right now. K was just glad her siblings had transferred with her so she had them for Christmas at least. "How's your brother doing? Koko?" She imagined this was all probably even harder on the younger siblings.
And with that thought in mind, she also looked around the room. She'd have to keep an eye out for Lucas to check on him later.
Hearing Headmaster Trent say her name with a request for something to have her do, K glanced over at him. She tried to keep her face neutral, but she couldn't help but think Mistletoe was an interesting choice. Wasn't that the plant you had to kiss someone when you were underneath it? But also... she couldn't help but smile because that sounded like it could certainly be an awkward and fun source of entertainment for the evening. "Yes sir, we'll start on that." Where would be the most inconvenient places for it?
Hearing Aboli speak again regarding starting on the tree with her, she smiled slightly, "Headmaster just asked us to work on the thistle. Want to lend a hand on that first and then we can all jump to the tree?" More hands meant it was all up faster. She turned her attention to wave at Minjae who had also been included in the request from Trent. "Hi Minjae! I like your pajamas!" They looked super uncomfortable. And expensive. "I'm going to go see if I can snag a ladder since we can't just magic up the decorations..." And unfortunately none of them were giants to just reach. "Anyone up for helping me carry one back?"
Spotting a fresh plate of cookies, she did grab a cookie from Beezley and offered a smile. "Thank you for making these! They're delicious." She took a bite to emphasis her point before moving back to her task at hand. She also sent a wave at Heath as he entered, shooting him a thumbs up for his selection in pajamas. Quote:

The Headmaster’s comment on the mistletoes did not go unnoticed to the fifteen year old and he grinned. ”Suuure thing professor” he said before turning his attention to Kimberly. The Hufflepuff’s grin changed in to a genuine smile as she commented on liking his pajama. ”Thanks, its really soft” and not at all uncomfortable.
As the Christmas music filled the Great Hall, Minjae looked around the room to see what they all had to set up...without magic... when he noticed Professor Schmoe’s pajama choice. He wasn’t even surprised to be honest. Actually, now that he was here, he wanted to ask if he could borrow one of his yo-yo’s. He had to do SOMETHING during the holidays and it WASN’T studying. But before he could walk up to him, he noticed someone (Sunny) he had never seen before at the food station. ”Kimmie, you know who that is?” he asked as he blatantly pointed at the man. He had gone to ...most...of his class this year. How come he didn’t recognize him? Quote:

Personally, she was 100% down with either. If they were stuck they might as well try to find something to do to make it fun. She raised her voice back to normal volume before gesturing over towards the ladders, "Can I also commandeer your help with one of those?" Since they couldn't just use magic to hang thistle this year.
Hearing him question if she knew who someone was, K glanced around again before settling on the stranger at the cookie table and shaking her head. "I don't. I think I saw him helping with the creatures though on the day of the storm. I'm not quite sure where he came from though. Or why he's here." In the castle, at the party, the whole shebang. How did they end up with a stranger? Quote:
Originally Posted by Fireheart Avalon laughed at Kimmie's comment about eating the cookies. She couldn't help but agree....those cookies looked amazing, and she would definitely be having some later. She almost had the urge to stare in disbelief at Professor Schmoe's pajamas, but she had gotten used to her Head of House's interesting clothing choices by now. At least he brought music! Avalon hummed along as she dug through a box, pulling out some thistle. She loved old-fashioned Christmas music. It reminded her of the holidays with her grandparents.
She was about to help her friend with the ladder when she heard Minjae ask about a stranger in the room. Following the point of his finger, she nearly gasped when she noticed none other than Sunny Raine, helping himself to a cookie. "What in Merlin is he doing in here?" she exclaimed, eyes widening in surprise. "That's the reporter we found hanging around near the Entrance Gates a few weeks ago! He kept talking about some weird storm and pressing us for information about it. Trent basically told him to get lost....." She trailed off in thought. "Does he even have permission to be back here?" Avalon glanced around the room, trying to find Isla or Jina - anyone who had been with her at the front gates a few weeks ago to see if they knew what was up. But there were too many students in the Great Hall, and she couldn't spot them easily.
She shrugged as she turned back to Kimmie and Minjae. "If he's in here, I'm sure Trent had to give him permission. It's still kind of strange, though." Avalon would definitely be keeping an eye on him. But in the mean time, they might as well enjoy the decorating and music. Decorating was one of Avalon's favorite part about Christmas, after all. "Let's grab a ladder, shall we? I don't know how else we'd be able to get up that high without magic!"
As much as Aboli didn't WANT to admit it, she kind of...was growing to.... like Kimmie, and while it was weird, she thought it was better than being enemies. Now Islay...that was someone she had mixed feelings about. Her curiosity was piqued since the seance Divi class, but she hadn't spoken much to the Gryffindor since then.
It was nice of Kimmie to offer help, though. "I'm good for now...starting to...feel better," she said as she sighed. "Koko is fine. He's probably trying to hide this out. I can't see him enjoying this sort of thing at ALL." And he'd probably lose them points if he was caught skipping. But whatever. Her brother could deal. She just nodded about helping with the thistle, following Kimmie's lead on this one. "You all go get the ladder - I'll start untangling the thistle, yeah?" she gestured to where one of the ladders was. Avalon, the bloke [Minjae], and Kimmie could handle one ladder themselves. She reached over and began to pull strands of the thistle apart, ready to hang them up. "Who wants to go on the ladder - you, Kimmie?" she then turned to the bloke and decided she might as well introduce herself. " I'm Aboli...don't think we've spoken before," she said with a shrug. "And that's Sunny Raine..." she let Avalone take the lead on explaining THAT guy.
She was busy giving the guy MAJOR STINK EYE. "Headmaster Trent - it's a SHAME toenail hexes won't work right now - " she gestured at Mr. Sunny Raine. AND THEN WENT BACK TO SQUINTING SUSPICIOUSLY AT HIM. All their trouble had only started once THIS DUDE had gotten here. So in here mind.........this was ENTIRELY his fault. SPOILER!!: Professor Rainwater Quote:

This evening he was supposed to be tucking his kids into bed after a day of christmas movies and cookies and... he wasn't. He didn't know what his kids were doing, he hadn't been able to wish them a merry christmas or to tell them that he loved them so incredibly much. The only comfort was that... he knew that they knew he loved them.
SO MUCH !!!!!!!!!
SO. He was absolutely ready to take his mind off that and take the students minds off of what they were missing at home. They needed him and he wasn't going to be able to help anyone by staying by himself and eating his weight in the peanut butter cookies he had been snacking on.
Always one for an entrance, (or so he was just overcompensating tbh) Gus burst through the doors with a trolley of large plants that he and other students had recovered from the greenhouses during the storm. "LET'S GET SOME DECORATIONS ON THESE UH.... TREES?" They weren't trees. But he was usually decorating his own tree or the one at Stemp House right now and he was DOING NEITHER so he was going to do it here and he was GOING TO FEEL GREAT ABOUT IT.
He was also dressed in candy cane pyjamas but you know... that wasn't the POINT. ALSO why was the radio on and why weren't they singing themselves? C'MON GUYS.
She gave him a wave. "Happy Christmas, Professor!" okay so....as much as she didn't want to admit it, her spirits had raised despite her terrible stomachache. UGH. And she had successfully gotten quite a few of the thistles ready to hang.
Was Jingle Bell Rock over yet?
