Brightening the mood.

[Brian Garrett]

Brian sat in the library at the only table that had been empty when he had walked in. To the average person this would seem like no big deal. But, what this meant was that the school was beginning to raise its stock again. Students were beginning to return and adults were coming back in droves. Although he was expecting that the school would announce a summer break so that the Headmasters and the professors could prepare for the new term, this was a wonderful sign. Hogwarts would hopefully be prepared for its first term of classes in years. Brian hadn't seen this many students on the grounds in about that same amount of time. He looked around and could not help but smile. The place was beginning to perk up and it could change anyone's mood. The grounds seemed to brighten with each student that returned.

With all of the new students showing up at the grounds Brian was beginning to entertain the thought of becoming a professor once again. He loved being around the kids and leaving his one-of-a-kind impression on them. The Brian footprint would get you going places. He laughed quietly to himself. He had never been the best professor. This was probably because he had been a less than stellar student when he had been in school. But Brian had a drive that not many could match. When he put his mind to something, he would follow through. Teaching the kids was something that he felt passionate about and he knew he could do. After the rust had left him, he felt he could be a pretty good communicator. "I guess I should talk to Abba about it" he said to himself, laying his head down in his hands. In some ways he was still a kid, but he had aged in so many ways. It was almost depressing.
