Eric held Minnie close for a long moment, burying his face in her hair as he let out a few tears of relief. She wanted him, she still did. He didn't understand why, but he was eternally grateful for it. Then he let go with a start, remembering how he had dropped the ring. "Wait- hold on." He...

After the graduation ceremony Eric knew he wanted to congratulate Penelope as a family, he knew it would mean a lot to her and he felt responsible for her. Their dad not being there was a glaring obvious thing, and it infuriated him on her behalf. So the least they could do was be there for her...

Eric knew he'd probably have to attend all graduations now as a member of staff, but today he didn't feel like he was here for work but like he was here as a guest. Penelope had invited Connor as well, so Eric made sure to sit with his brother as well as his fiancée, only a little annoyed Holden...

Current Points: 130 Eric had known he was out of his depth since the duel started, but when Gabrielle cast a spell he didn't even know, he really knew he was f*cked. He tried to throw up a shield, but he was too late. The ground beneath him turned slippery and smooth like a slide and Eric didn't...

Current Points: 140 Eric could only feel relief when the professor's next spell wasn't nonverbal. He wondered idly if she was taking pity on him, though she didn't seem the type. He blocked her spell, then cast a new one in return. "Incarcerous!" Action(s) Taken: cast spell x2 Point Changes: -10...

Current Points: 150 Eric had thought signing up for the duelling tournament would be kind of fun, it would be something to do. He remembered his first duel as a student pretty well, how he and Sydney had both been disqualified because he had shoved her after she kept insulting him. He figured...

Eric was anxiously searching Minnie's face, so much that he almost didn't hear her answer. He blinked, then his face cleared up in delight. He beamed at her, then dropped the box, got to his feet and threw his arms around her, briefly forgetting about the ring entirely.

Eric had hoped he would see Minnie before she saw him, but that clearly hadn't been the case. He turned around at the sound of her voice, freezing for a moment at the sight of her. She looked beautiful as always, and suddenly Eric felt nervous. There was a part of him that wanted to run away and...

Eric had thought a lot about how to do this. It hadn't been easy, he wasn't a very romantic person and wasn't very good at big gestures. Yet, here he was, in the spot he had first met Minnie nearly fifteen years ago. They had only been kids, not even old enough to go to Hogwarts yet. Eric still...

Eric knew what Holden was doing, he had done the same thing himself plenty of times. He was just shouting whatever he thought would hurt Eric the most, but he had managed to hit the mark. Connor hadn't been a very good brother to Holden and Penny, something Eric had tried to help with. So...

Eric listened as Aspen said some teachers used to scare her when she was younger. He snorted. "Styx?" He guessed. He wasn't sure how old Aspen was, but Styx was ancient and maybe immortal, so Eric figured it was a pretty good guess. "Oh, weird." He said when she explained she had to interview...

Eric hadn't guessed the centaur to be old enough to be in the forest for longer than he'd been alive, but he supposed maybe she came there young. He was a little curious but not curious enough to ask. He frowned when she said she couldn't call the kids out as they might scare them. He gestured...

Eric thought he was being reasonable, offering them ten minutes. He frowned when Penelope's boyfriend tried to get more time, immediately wanting to take back the offer entirely. But he didn't have to, Penny still seemed mad. He sighed as she started to leave. "I'm still checking here in ten...

Eric knew Penelope was right, they hadn't done anything wrong, but what was Eric supposed to do? Just let students make out in the classroom? When one of them was his sister? He was suddenly very certain that no caretaker of Hogwarts had been in this situation before. He glanced at the boy, who...

Eric sighed and had to count to five in his head when he saw Holden pocket the knife. He really was going to have to pull a Noel here, wasn't he? He kind of hated himself for it. But he was frustrated with Holden too. He knew he was a kid, but what he said just sounded so... childish and silly...

Eric really didn't know what to do in this situation. It wasn't like they were doing anything wrong, but it was weird. He still saw Penelope as the little ten year old he met when he saw his father again, and now- now she was kissing boys in empty classrooms? He frowned at the kid as he spoke...

Eric wasn't sure how he was surprised by the centaur speaking to him, but she had to be quieter than he gave her credit for. He looked up at her and blinked, wondering if she considered him a friend now after their interaction on the lawn. He supposed she was his closest coworker, their duties...

Eric snorted and nodded with a small shrug. He knew others would be able to do the job too, but it was still funny. It was also kind of funny how horrified he would've been as a student to know this was his future job. You never knew what life would bring. "I think I got it back. Or I got a new...

Eric had sort of wondered if the centaur was joking, but it seemed like she really had mistaken him for a student. "I'm twenty five, graduated almost a decade ago." He told her with a shrug. It wasn't that he was upset, but it was a little strange to him. He put more garbage into the bag...

Eric wondered why the headmaster didn't just lock all the doors to classrooms and closets that weren't used. It was like he was waiting for kids to use them for trouble. He had removed so many names written in sharpie off the old furniture stacked in those classrooms by now, as well as gum and...
