It was almost ironic, how one of Jon’s old colleagues had sent him an owl about meeting her newborn baby, right around the time that Jon was truly beginning to think about his future and whether he wanted to have children one day. But as coincidental as the timing was, Jon appreciated being...

It reassured Jon to know Maurice wanted the same thing for Elodie, wanted her to start school with a friend, or at least someone she sort of knew to keep her from being alone in such a new place. From his own experiences in school and from what he had seen during his time as a professor, leaving...

Jon’s smile was wide as he watched Elodie and Marie interact, deciding to give them a moment to get acquainted, and give Maurice a chance to greet Bongo, before he moved his hands to his hips wanting to get things moving. “So, ice cream.” Jon announced, looking between Maurice and the two girls...

It seemed like only yesterday Jon’s mum and step dad announced they were having a baby, and Jon was in denial and unable to accept such an unexpected and overwhelming change. Although in reality an entire eleven years had passed, and since Marie was born Jon couldn't imagine his life any other...

Surprised was definitely the right word to describe how Jon was feeling. Returning to New Zealand to find that the life he left behind seemed inherently the same convinced him things really hadn’t changed, and realizing that the changes that happened, although few and far between, were huge had...

Jon felt out of place being back in New Zealand. He couldn’t put his finger on why spending more than a year traveling the world would lead to a sense of disconnect when he returned home, but as he spent time back in such familiar surroundings it was obvious to him that it was happening, and...

Jon listened to the girl's question intently, waiting a moment to gather his thoughts before he spoke. "In the earlier years you learn the basics about the general muggle way of life, how the school system works in the muggle world, about electricity and transport, and if I remember correctly...

When the fair began Jon waited patiently for someone to approach him, smiling as a girl eventually walked over to ask if she could ask him questions about muggle studies. He nodded and leant forward on the table slightly. "Of course you can ask me questions, what would you like to know?" Jon...

That years electives fair would be Jon's last, and he wanted to make it count. By inspiring the second years to choose muggle studies as a subject, Jon hoped this would mean throughout the rest of their schooling they found the subject interesting and in turn inspire the professor that replaced...

Jon watched as his fellow professors and different members of the hogwarts staff arrived, feeling more excited to get the gift giving underway with every passing moment. He listened to the headmistress as the woman spoke, pleased when she announced the gift giving could commence. He looked...

Even if Rama ignored his apology, Jon was relieved he had managed to show up and that Monty in the very least seemed understanding of what happened. It was uncharacteristic for him to be late and let people down and the feeling of doing so stung him to his core, but he also knew that this was an...

Being anxious by nature and dedicated to his job, it was unlike Jon to arrive late to something, and especially not when he needed to follow through with a detention he had given a student. Discipline was important and one of the most important parts about it was following through as if he did...

Christmas was one of Jon's favourite holidays, and one he always went over the top for, so when a secret santa had been organized for the professors and staff at Hogwarts Jon had signed up for it immediately. Apart from basking in the festive spirit of christmas and cherishing the time he could...
