A little after lunch, Pomona put her feet up in the staffroom with a cup of cocoa. She wouldn't normally linger in here in the early afternoon, considering that it was Monday and she would be expected to have Sprouty's Shed open later, but it was a fine old tradition at Hogwarts that any new class of Apparition students was cause for a gathering of staff afterwards, to let out all the giggles and snarky comments they had repressed throughout the morning.
Minerva had even promised chocolate biscuits for the occasion.
While she waited for the others, Pomona flipped idly through the Daily Prophet, snickering occasionally. Rita really did crack her up. She was looking forward to meeting up with her at the Quidditch, even if she really was going to be Good and not spread all the gossip she had been gathering in recent weeks.
Well, not all the gossip.
