No Kiddies, No Teaching, No Problems.

This. Was. The. Life. Right here. Right now. Did he have to baby sit a bunch of muggle born hating snake children? Nope. Did he have to stand up in from of a class and teach a bunch of mindless kiddies from inferior houses as well as his own? No, but he really didn't try very hard to do that even when he had was suppose to. And last but not least; did he have to put up with Fiona's kissy faces? Well... er... not currently at least. Bloody woman was far too busy with school wide concerns to bother pestering him. But, he gave that one due time. The last confrontation they had, Bloxam had needed an entire tube of toothpaste and three things of mouth wash to recover from it. He was never going to be galled into kissing her again. Oh, no. And worse, it had not even earned him a raise. Least she could have done was pay him for the inconvenience.

With a gurgle of disgust, Thomas stretched his tall form even father over the couch he was too big for to begin with. Six feet and shoulders wide enough for a small child to use as a bed would do that to a man. So his head was poking off one end, his feet the other, and he seemed completely at ease.

A part of him missed the students. After all, it had been a blast messing with the young Slytherin's minds during lock down. But the sad part was that the Ministry would be looking into those students before turning to the others. How many had they actually investigate? Ah well, they were kiddies. They rebounded from stuff like that and if not... well... all the more manipulable come September.

Right now, right here... he was just content to kick up his feet and enjoy an environment free of those seventeen and under.

Marvin stepped into the room, having just left his office to seek refuge somewhere else in the castle away from the paperwork that lie unmarked upon his table. Marvin rarely ventured into this particular room, normally choosing to spend his time outside or having to deal with whatever troubel his charges were causing once more. He could swear, between the firey red haired girl and her companion, to the 6th year boy, his job was never complete. Most of the paperwork accross his desk was forms to fill out about them.

His eyes scanned the room as he stepped in from the hall. "Ah I see I'm not the only one seeking a refuge today" Marvin said loudly to the man sprawled out upon the couch. Marvin knew him only by face and name as another professor, but had never actually sat and spoke to the man. However he did know he housed the Slytherins. "Enjoying the peace and quiet?" Marvin asked as he took a seat in one of the large, lush arm chairs.
