Staff Table

[Lola Rowann]

Lola walked as elegantly as she could in her awkward muggle boots up towards the staff table. She felt utterly stupid but muggles wore these mad clothes all the time, how they were that brave or idiotic was quite frankly beyond her. She gathered the knitted cardigan about her as she past some of the students, noticing that one of her socks was beginning to fall down her leg a bit.
"oh well" she tapped a pair of second years on the shoulder as she made her way to the table, "less of that please".
It really was a bit early to be kissing each other like it was going out of fashion, teenagers just didn't have any sense of decorum any more.

Finally sitting down she smiled looking about her, then stretched her legs out in front wishing she could take the stupid boots off.

 

[Kendra Dippet]

"Lola" Kendra smiled at her colleague looking about the packed room and admired the decorations before taking her usual seat at the staff table.
"Above and beyond this year is it?" this was her first Halloween but from the whisperings of the students as they entered it would appear that the headmistress had outdone herself this year.

Looking at some of the costumes she was glad now she made the effort. Though the muggle student garb she wore was tight and restrictive, not at all what she was accustomed to wearing. Turning to look at Lola it was as if she were looking at her for the first time.
"Let me guess, a muggle?" her powers of deduction were keen but she didn't have to be a ministerial official to deduce that much.

 

[Vince Channing]

Wearing a last minute costume that consisted of merely a red mask and a hat, with a 'cape' draped over him, Vince decided to attend the school's Halloween event in an attempt to familiarize himself with the staff he was now to be working with. He was so used to the laid back style of the staff back at the Hogs Head, he wasn't used to the quieter group gatherings in the teachers common room. He hoped that the festivities of tonight would loosen them up and he'd start the relationships from there.

As he was walking about the room, he made his way over to the staff table, noticing only two others there so far. His pale blue eyes looked over the two women with interest before he did a double take at the one dressed like a muggle, she looked so alarmingly familiar, like he'd seen that face a few nights before. As he approached he questioned, "Lola?" with curiosity. What was his boss doing at Hogwarts?

 

[Lola Rowann]

"Pleasure as always Kendra" she smiled at the other woman as she sat down at the staff table, "they did a fine job but then again they always do."
She smiled at the costume the other professor had on, knowing she had never seen her colleague in that mode of dress before always opting for the looser type of gowns.
"Most definitely a muggle, my imagination tends to be slightly limited when it comes to these costume events" she smiled, tapping her foot along to the music when a somewhat familiar voice called her name. The man approaching the table had a red mask on and a black costume but for the life of her she could not place him.

"Do I know you sir?" a slight frown creased her brow as she turned to see if Kendra knew the man.

 

[Vince Channing]

Vince gave a small nod to the other witch who was at the table, before returning his attention to Lola. As she questioned whether she knew him or not, he considered flirting with her again, though she was in some rather questionable 'muggle' attire, he still remembered her to be rather attractive. But he had only just been hired and wanted to last more than a month, so he decided upon his original idea, thinking being caught by an authority figure and setting a bad example to the students was not something he wanted to do.

Still, even though he had agreed to contain himself, he couldn't help but smirk just slightly. "Vince Channing," he re-introduced himself, giving a small bow to the two of them. "Bartender of the bar I believe you own," he explained with a small head tilt to the side. He always wondered why her visits to her own bar were so few, if it turned out she worked here as well it would just explain things.
